“Serena gave birth? Why didn’t Winona inform me?” Sophia was confused. Serena’s delivery was such an important matter, Winona should have called her to notify her. She still did not know that Winona had been busy all night and had no time to rest all, let alone call her. “What about the babies? Are they safe?” “They are safe,” Tommy said. “Thank goodness. It’s good that they are safe.” Sophia sighed a breath of relief before she added, “How’s Serena?” “Didn’t you see the news?” Tommy sighed. “Serena is not good. She’s at her worse to be exact. Sophia, I think it’s better for you to visit her.” “Not good? What do you mean?” A mother and daughter shared a special connection. Sophia’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Tommy telling her Serena was having a difficult time. “It was a premature delivery but the babies are safe. However, the babies turned out to be of foreign descent and Serena lost a lot of blood during delivery.” Sophia was stunned. ‘What does he mean by fo
Sophia sat beside her sleeping daughter. Looking at Serena’s pale face broke her heart. “How long has she been asleep? When will she wake up?” “She woke up in the morning but she’s still very unstable. She has been crying and making a fuss, so I had her sedated. She’ll wake up soon enough.” Sophia was relieved to learn that her daughter was fine for the time being. Then, she recalled what Tommy said earlier. “Winona, where are the babies? Are they fine?” Sophia barely believed Tommy but how could Serena possibly give birth to two foreign babies? “The babies are safe but…” Winona sounded hesitant. She did not know how to break it to Sophia. Throughout her career as a doctor, she had never seen something this bizarre before. Both the father and mother were handsome and beautiful white people, so how could they give birth to such strange children? Even if it was some kind of genetic mutation, it should not have altered the descent like this. She could not wrap her head aroun
“Serena Garcia is really a shameless woman. She hooked up with a black man yet still wanted to frame another man. Shameless! She gets all the fun while someone else takes the responsibilities!” “That Michael Larson is not an idiot as well. Even if Serena Garcia did not give birth to a pair of black monsters, he would probably take a DNA test! It’s not that easy trying to find a man that stupid to be the father!” Sophia was enraged when she heard the comments. Those gossipers had no right to defame her daughter, she ought to reason with them but Winona pulled her back. “What are you doing? Are you trying to make things worse? Don’t forget who you are now!” Sophia stopped in her steps. She was practically a dead person and a dead person in the hospital would surely attract attention. It was people’s right to say whatever they wanted, so she could not and had no right to stop them either. She glared at the few men viciously before she returned to Serena’s ward with Winona. “Wh
Winona then thought about it and realized that Serena’s doctor was assigned by her at the very last minute. On top of that, she was waiting outside the operating room the entire time, so the chances of swapping out the babies were slim. “Let’s just perform a DNA test for the babies. If they aren’t Serena’s babies, we’ll go to Michael.” Both Sophia and Serena agreed and Winona was in charge of the DNA test. Since Sophia could not stay for long, she talked to her daughter for a little longer before she left. Sophia hailed a cab and on the way home, she heard the radio talking about Serena. The newscaster seemed to be ridiculing Serena for giving birth to two black babies. “What a coincidence that Mayor Garcia is being detained and his daughter gave birth to black twins. Like father, like daughter I’d say.” “With such a dishonest father, it is bound to lead his daughter to a troubled private life. Not only did she hook up with a foreigner, but she even tried to make someone else
Darren almost believed what Judy said. He thought that the sugar baby who got in touch with her was his son. However, when he thought about it again, he realized that Judy must be lying, especially since his sister died a mysterious death. With that, it increased his suspicion. It must be because his sister somehow stole Judy’s lover, and so Judy killed her out of hate. Darren had been holding back his anger while he tried to search for Judy. Unfortunately, Judge lost her home and had to wander on the street, which proved to be a difficult target to locate. He finally found Judy after going through the mill. His eyes were red as he grabbed her by the collar and bellowed, “You bitch, you will pay for my sister’s life!” Judy had been through a lot of suffering, she had already lost her will to live. If she was not hellbent on avenging her son, she would have taken her own life a long time ago. “Darren, I don’t mind dying but I can’t let my son die without a reason. If you wan
“No!” Tommy shook his head repeatedly. “Sophia, I’m just suspecting! I’d never tell her something this important!” It was only a suspicion? Sophia’s anxiety eased up for a bit as she scolded him angrily, “How can you simply suspect things? You almost gave me a heart attack!” After she calmed down, she started to comb through the details. Winona was helping her and Serena, so it was not possible for that woman to find out the truth. Otherwise, Winona would have turned against her and Serena. “Sophia, why are you so sure that Winona doesn’t know the truth?” “This…” Sophia hesitated. “Of course she doesn’t know. She’s the one who helped Serena with the test tube babies. Without her, Michael and Christina would have gotten married by now.”“That’s it?” Tommy did not agree with Sophia. “Sophia, come on, wake up! Look at the ‘help’ that she’s been giving! The help she gave put Serena in this condition. She even cut off Serena’s womb and you still believe she’s helping you?” Soph
“So that’s it? You’re just going to let that slip?” Sophia was furious at Winona’s excuse, so she replied to her in a huff. “I can’t do anything now. All we can do is send the babies away and let Serena recover. We’ll then see what we can do next.” “Send the babies away? You’re going to make Serena take the blame?” Tommy intervened. “Why are you meddling around?” Winona glared at Tommy who must have lost his mind. How dare he say something like that about Serena in front of Sophia? He must have a death wish. “Out! This is none of your business.” Tommy was sent away, leaving Sophia and Winona alone in the ward. Sophia looked at Winona coldly. “Tommy is right, are you going to make Serena take the blame?” “What do you suggest?” Winona retorted. Serena was also her daughter, so she too felt bad about what happened but she merely did not express her feelings verbally. “I don’t have any good ideas but things feel strange. The doctor who froze the sperm had no beef with us, so
Sophia and Winona’s argument ended on a sour note. The argument strengthened Sophia’s belief that Winona was behind all this. She believed that the latter must have swapped the sperm out and simply found a reason to cut off Serena’s womb. It was all for the sake of revenge. “Winona, you wicked witch! I won’t let this slip so easily, just you wait!” Since Winona had made her move, Sophia ought to retaliate with fiercer means. She wanted to see who would end up as the victor. Back in the hospital, Winona was extremely angry. From the moment Serena was admitted into the hospital, she had been working non-stop to take care of Serena and her babies painstakingly. To her surprise, not only did Sophia not appreciate her effort, but Sophia even suspected her of causing all this. Sophia was well-known for her ruthless methods. From the moment she killed Molly, Winona knew she was dealing with a ruthless person, so Winona dared not be careless in front of Sophia. She knew had to be c
