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

    When Winona went to work, she realized that the doctors and nurses looked at her differently but she was not overly bothered. She continued her daily routine of making soup that could help with Serena’s postpartum healing and brought it to Serena’s ward. “Serena, drink it while it’s hot.” She poured the soup out of the container for Serena who took a sip, but her curiosity got the best of her. She did not believe the woman in the video was Winona. She rather believed someone had Deepfaked Winona’s face into the video. “Aunt Winona, did you make someone angry? Why are people doing this to you?” “What do you mean?” Winona asked. “Look at this.” Serena passed her phone to Winona. “Those shameless bastards. They used Deepfake your face into the video, you better sue them.” Winona was terrified when she saw the video. Other people may not know but she knew everything that happened in the video was real. Her hands shook as she deleted the video from Serena’s phone. This was obv

    Besides, even if the plan failed, intentionally causing a pregnant woman to miscarry was not considered homicide by the country’s criminal law.

    “Just a little while ago.” Sean came closer. “Christina, we need to talk.”She nodded and followed him to the garden. He helped her to get comfortable on the bench. “Do you believe in fate?”She shook her head, unsure where this was leading. “I didn’t either as I’m a firm believer that hard work always pays off. But now I do.”He looked her in the eye. “I’ve been lost and struggled a lot since that incident, unsure how to face you. After considering this seriously for the past few days, I’ve finally mustered enough courage to meet you again.”A sigh escaped her lips. “Sorry, Sean. It’s all my fault.”“No! It has nothing to do with you, Christina. It’s my fault that my love is not strong enough. I discovered that Suzy is really great after spending the past few months with her. She’s just like you. She’s gentle, kind, pure, and adorable. I realized I’ve fallen in love with her.”This was not what he really thought.He loved Christina since the beginning of time and believed he

    “That’s old history. We think Michael is actually pretty good.”“We? Who do you mean?” Christina teased.Ariel and Matthew had been spending a lot of time together lately. Christina went through that herself and understood the passion in her friend’s eyes. This silly girl was actually in love. She could not be happier for her.“Who else? Matthew, of course!” Ariel glared at Christina.“I say whatever’s on my mind, unlike you, who always keep everything to yourself and get stuck in dilemmas. Every good opportunity slips past you because of your indecisiveness!” “How can I not be? I promised to marry him but I’m now trying to convince him to marry someone else. Is this really the best thing for him? Will he be happy?”Ariel questioned after a brief silence, “Christina, let me ask you this. Who do you care for more? Michael or Sean?”Christina asked herself the same question too. She naturally cared more about Michael in the past, but she also started to develop a strong feeling f

    The following morning, Serena hurried to the police station to file a report.The police treated this with high importance and warned her to be careful of Darren Cain as he was a vicious gang member who had served over a decade in prison.She became more frightened after hearing that. Immediately, she moved out of that house and rented a place somewhere quiet. As she was terrified, she stayed indoors for the next few days.Much of Christina’s stress was relieved without having to deal with Serena’s pestering.“Christina, John was at the last stage of cancer. It was lucky enough that he lasted until he did. This is his fate, so try not to get too upset.” Francis comforted the dispirited woman. It did not make any difference even though he was not the real Francis. He had long adapted to the identity after assuming it for so many years. Most importantly, Christina was still willing to treat him like a real uncle even after finding out the truth.“Don’t worry, Uncle, I’m fine.”

    The harassment continued after the funeral. Serena went around spreading accusations and threatened Christina to give her money. Otherwise, she would report John to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission for private corruption.If reported, the antique art collection would be seized and no one could get it!Christina became more frustrated after hearing that.She never expected John’s leniency toward Serena would cause her such a big problem. Matthew was infuriated by Serena’s unreasonable behavior. He suggested they could shut the woman up by teaching her a lesson. Sean shook his head. “That’s not going to solve the problem. Serena must’ve come prepared if she dares to stir up trouble. This is a lawful society. We can’t do as we wish.”“Are we actually going to pay her off then?” Ariel asked, “I think giving her money isn’t going to put an end to this. She’s certainly going to keep threatening for more!”Michael scoffed. “Why should we give her money? She can go

    “I will, Dad, don’t worry. I’ll listen to Sister,” Suzy replied.“Christina.” John grabbed Christina’s hand in his own. “My greatest regret in this life is failing to take good care of you and your mother. I’m going to meet your mother soon. I hope she’ll forgive me!”Tears rolled down Christina’s cheeks. Men would speak kindly in the presence of death. She was unsure if Molly would forgive him, but she had long forgiven her father.He strained to pull Suzy and Christina’s hands closer together as he looked at them with pleading eyes. “The both of you must live peacefully together. Suzy, listen to your sister, and Christina, you must take good care of her on my behalf.”Christina looked at Suzy before nodding quietly. Then, John shifted his glance to Michael.“I’ve done many wrongs in this life. I betrayed my wife and disappointed my daughter. I hope you’ll do better than me. I’ll hand over Christina to you now.
