Betraying the Heiress Chapter 46
I know a lot has changed about him. The way he talks, the way he acts, and the way he expresses his emotions We haven't seen each other for only eight months, and so many things have changed about him. Eight months have passed, and everything still hurts me. I invest a lot in him, and I feel sad every time I remember that the things he showed me before turned out not to be true. "I wouldn't come here if I didn't need you, Stefan," I answered him. "Exactly. You need something; that's why you're here. So, what is it?" he asked while still frowning, and the irritation was still there. I took another deep breath because, even though I was nervous, I couldn't back down. "You got me pregnant eight months ago, and I gave birth yesterday. My due date was supposed to be next month, but I was shocked when I gave birth—"Before I finished speaking, he immediately cut me off. "What?! I got you pregnant?! How did that happen, Eli? Are you making up stories to get revenge on me?! Stop that bu

Everything happened so quickly. I returned to America without Stefan. I went home in tears and defeated. I also tried to find another way. I didn't give up trying to find a donor for Margaret, but I had a hard time because her blood type is so rare. It also took me a long time to find donors until her body couldn't take it anymore. In an instant, I lost my daughter.I lost her, and I always blame myself because I couldn't find a way to save her. I haven't been with her for a long time, and she was immediately taken from me. Less than two months later, I lost her. At the same time that my daughter was gone, Allison's memories returned. We both suffer from depression. I lost my child and almost lost my sanity. I have committed suicide several times because I can't handle the pain anymore. I blame myself every day, and I am so angry with Stefan. I am angry with all of them because they did not give me the help I asked for. I don't know what I did wrong for them to do that to me. I wi

When I got to the restaurant where Mommy had reserved our dinner, I immediately saw Stella talking to the other waiters there. The other staff there greeted me, while my bodyguards followed me. I don't really want to have bodyguards, but my mother insisted. She said that I needed it for my safety because she was worried about me when the journalists crowded around me to ask me questions before.I was going near our table when a man suddenly blocked my way. I was a little surprised at that, but when I saw who it was, I breathed a sigh of relief. I turned to my two bodyguards who were behind me, and I signaled to them that I was fine there until they moved away from me. "Doctor Santos!" I greeted my friend when my bodyguards finally left. Doctor Santos is from another hospital. We met at trainings then, and he was one of the guys who courted me that I never gave a chance to. We have been friends until now, and he is fun to be with. Sometimes I was still left behind because he always

"W-What are you doing here?" Stella asked while still crying. Stella reached out to Josiah while frowning. Josiah smiled and handed her the flower he was holding. Even I wondered what Josiah was doing. Just a moment ago, at the hospital, he told me that he didn't want to see Stella anymore. What's happening to him right now? "I heard that you still love me, and I want to hear it again. So, Stella, I'm asking you. Do you still love me?" Josiah asked with a serious face. I could see the confusion in Stella's eyes, as if she didn't understand what was happening. Stella shook her head before speaking. "What are you talking about? W-Why are you here? I thought you couldn't come because you were busy?" she asked Josiah one after another while still frowning. Josiah was the one who shook his head now. "But I'm here in front of you right now. That's why I'm asking you, Stella. Do you still love me?" Josiah asked again. I saw Stella's tears fall again, so I looked at Mommy and turned my

I shook my head and wanted to laugh at myself. Why would Stefan be here? Maybe I just made a mistake when I looked earlier, and maybe I saw him because I remembered our daughter.Two weeks passed, and I felt so much pain again. After I granted Gio's wishes, he died. I cried a lot that day, and I felt like I had lost my child again. I also mourned his loss for almost a week, but I tried to be strong, even though I sometimes blamed myself. I feel like I can't afford to lose another patient.It's true that most people say that I shouldn't attach myself too much to my patients so that I don't get hurt too much when I lose them, but what can I do? Gio is such a nice kid, and I can't help but get close to him. It's just annoying because there's more to it than I thought. I had not yet gotten over Gio's death when a man appeared to me who looked just like my father.To this day, I still can't believe that Dad has a twin, and I also don't understand what sin he says he committed against us.

I was about to leave, but Josiah stopped me again, so I looked at him again. "You saw how weak I was, didn't you? You saw that earlier; that's why I'm asking for your help," he said. I knew what he was talking about, and that was my surgery on Stefan's wife, which is why I took a deep breath before shaking my head at him. "Jos, I can't say yes to you right away because I'm thinking about something," I told him. "What is it?" he asked me with a frown. "You're scared because you don't believe in your abilities, and that's how I feel right now," I answered him. He immediately shook his head at me before speaking again. "No, Eli. We know that out of the two of us, you are the better." I immediately cut him off because that was not my reason. "I don't trust Stefan; I told him directly. "What do you mean?" he asked. I held my breath and looked around before speaking. "What if his wife and children don't survive? And he blames it on me again to ruin my name? I'm afraid, Jos. I'm a

I hurried down the stairs until my tears fell completely. No matter how hard I try to keep them from coming out, I can't control the emotions I feel. I told myself before that I shouldn't be affected by what happened in the past, but when I think of my daughter, I can't help but feel hurt again."E-Eli! Wait!" Stefan called me again. He got close to me again and again pulled me to stop walking. I bowed down because I didn't want him to see me still crying there. I covered my mouth with one hand, then quickly wiped away my tears. "I-Is it true? Is what you're saying true, or you just don't want me to see her and get to know her?" he asked, doubt in his voice. I inhaled and took a deep breath to look at him directly. I can feel the pain in my eyes, and I will admit that every time I see him, I remember begging him just to help my daughter. "Do I look like I'm lying? And yes, if she's alive, I'll choose not to show her and introduce her to you. You don't deserve to meet the baby you

"I love this, Stella! But it looks too revealing," I said to Stella when she made me wear the night-out dress she bought. I'm wearing a hot pink cut-out shoulder ruched bodycon dress, and Stella put some light make-up on my face. As for my hair, it's just a blower and a little iron because I have short hair now. The dress suits me, but I feel like it doesn't suit my personality anymore. Since I became a doctor, I have been conservative in my clothing. "No, it's not! You look even prettier in what you're wearing now, and I miss seeing you wear clothes like that. You just wear a scrub suit every day!" Stella said to me one after the other, then she rolled her eyes at me. I just shook my head and shrugged my shoulders to give her what she wanted. I just put on a white coat and dress because we are still going to eat dinner. I'll just remove it later, when we're at the bar. "Are you still going to bring your bodyguards?" Stella asked me. I suddenly remembered my bodyguards, who were

"Won't your boyfriend be angry? I can explain to Yasmin that you can't join us," Stefan said as we walked to Yasmin's hospital room.I shook my head and smirked a little because he really believed that Lance was my boyfriend."There's nothing to be angry about. Don't mind about it, Stefan. It's okay. I assure you," I told him, and he smiled.He sighed and shook his head at me, as if I couldn't convince him that it was all right for me."I just don't want you to fight because of this," he answered when we finally entered Yasmin's room.I saw Yasmin's frown when she looked at us; that's why I smiled at her, because she seemed to have heard the last thing Stefan said."Get angry? Who gets angry? Is your mommy taking you away from us, Doc?" Yasmin asked one after the other.I quickly shook my head at her and looked at Stefan, who led me to walk. He immediately went straight to the table and put the paper bag he was carrying there."No, it's not her mother, Yasmin. I just said that, becaus

"Come on, Eli. Tell me the truth. I won't be angry if you and Stefan get back together again," Josiah scolded me.I sighed and raised an eyebrow at him. I told him earlier that Stefan and I didn't get back together, but he didn't want to believe that."Stop it, Jos. We just talked. That's it," I answered him.We are now walking to a restaurant near the hospital. As usual, even when I'm outside, I know there are bodyguards following me. It was already dinner time, so we decided to eat outside because we had duty all night."Talked? You said that you already talked. I've seen you two talking so many times that's why you can't use an excuse that word to me," he said one after another as if he didn't really believe what I was saying.I shook my head again because I didn't know how I could convince him that Stefan and I really just talked earlier."If you don't want to believe me, then you better ask him by yourself. We really just talked for our closure, and we also talked about the false

After coming from the precinct, I went straight to the hospital. Josiah immediately approached me to ask what happened."Stella mentioned to me that you are from the precinct. How are you? Have you talked to your dad's twin brother?" Josiah immediately asked me.I nodded and sighed."Yup. I have also introduced them to Tito Adler, and we still get to know him," I answered.Josiah nodded at me before he fixed his laboratory coat. He was about to speak, but he turned his gaze behind me, which made me frown, and looked at it.I saw Stefan approaching us; that's why I held my breath."I'll just check on some of my patients. I'll come to your office later," Josiah said, then immediately left.I panicked for a moment because I didn't expect him to leave right away, but I calmed myself down."Doc Eli," Stefan called me.I kept looking at him, and I could see the doubt in his eyes, as if he wasn't sure if he should approach me now.I cleared my throat and stood properly before I spoke."Mr. E

"How can you not know about that, Mom?" Allison asked."My gosh! If he hadn't introduced himself, I might have believed that it was Dad!" Stella said one after the other."How can I know about that? Your Daddy never mentioned to me that he has a twin!" Mommy answered, then sat down on the sofa.We are at home now because, after Tito Adler's statement appeared on the news, Mommy called us to come home. I thought they wouldn't be able to watch it right away because they were busy with their work, but I was surprised when they watched it right away."He looks like Dad. I suddenly miss Daddy," Allison said with a sad voice.I remembered the night Uncle Adler appeared to me, and I was also very devastated because I thought it was Dad in front, but it wasn't. I understand Allison's feelings because I have felt the same."So what's your plan, Mom? Don't tell me we're not going to help him, huh?" asked Stella.I looked up at Mommy because I was interested in her answer to Stella's question. I

I don't know how many minutes passed until Mommy finally calmed down, but there was still a trace of anger in her eyes. "I-I just want to help the baby, but that doesn't mean I'm going back to Stefan," I explained to them. Even Stella did not want to agree to me adopting Elias because she said it was not my obligation. Another thing is that they really hate Stefan, even though I told them that I forgave him a long time ago. "How can you be so sure about that? I'm sure that man will use you again!" Stella said, annoyed. "It looks like you're planning to fool around for the rest of your life, Eliana. Hey! I don't know if I should be the one to say it. You're at the right age, so it's up to you!" Mommy kept preaching to me. I sighed again because I couldn't understand why they were thinking of me getting back together with Stefan, even though it never crossed my mind. "I just want to help the baby, but I have no intention of getting back together with Stefan. I don't have any feeli

After I got Yasmin back to her room, I let her rest. Stefan was still there, and Elias was asleep in the little crib. "Thank you, Doc. How is she?" Stefan asked me. Yasmin fell asleep immediately because her body gets tired quickly. Stefan, on the other hand, stopped what he was doing to come to me and say thank you. "She was fine, and we have already talked. She just mentioned something to me earlier," I answered, then shrugged my shoulders. I could see the slight surprise in his eyes, as if he already knew what it was about. "A-About what?" he stuttered. I avoided looking at him, and I looked at Yasmin, who was sleeping on her bed, as if she were very tired. "She doesn't want to have the surgery," I answered.I feel so sorry for her, because even if I don't agree with what she wants, I can't do anything else. "Yes, she already told me about that. I don't agree to what she wants even though her funds for her treatment have been used up," Stefan explained, causing me to turn t

I saw that the sun was about to set, and I was glad to witness it now because it was almost night when I left the hospital. It's a good thing that Yasmin asked for this, so I was able to watch the sunset with her. "How's your feeling?" I asked Yasmin. We are now behind the hospital, where there are many trees and a large oval field. This is the place I chose for my hospital so that I could give the patients a big space. The air is fresh there, and I sometimes go here when I want to be alone. There are also other patients there who are being taken around by their nurses. "As of now, I feel fine and feel no pain," Yasmin answered me. I gave her the vegetable salad that Josiah gave me earlier because I couldn't eat it anymore. I only drink iced coffee now. Yasmin was looking at the big oval field while sitting in her wheelchair, so I sat on a bench right next to her. "Your surgery is coming soon. Are you ready?" I asked her. I looked at Yasmin, and I saw a lot of changes in her ph

I didn't last long in the nursery room either, and Stefan and I were able to talk there, so when we finished, I went back to my work. "You see?" Josiah asked me when we met again.I took a deep breath and then nodded in response to him. He smiled slightly at me, then lightly patted my shoulder. "I feel good about the baby, Jos. When I saw and touched him earlier, it was like I was being with Margaret again," I told him, and then I couldn't help but smile. I saw Josiah immediately shake his head while looking at me, so I slightly raised an eyebrow at him. "How many times do I have to tell you, Eli? Separate your personal feelings in situations like this so you don't get hurt in the end," he said to remind me again. I held my breath and tried to smile at him before speaking. "I know, Jos. I just felt something strange about the baby," I answered him. I know that my weakness is children because I lost my own child. I just sometimes think that Yasmin is very lucky because, even tho

I went straight to Lance's room and found him awake. He was talking with Criza, his sister. They looked at me at the same time when I entered, so I smiled. "Doc, Eli." Criza greeted me. I smiled at Criza and couldn't help but remember what I discovered about what happened to her. I turned to Criza to have a kiss with her, then I looked at Lance, who was just looking at me silently. "I'll leave you two here for now. I'm just going to buy something outside," Criza said to say goodbye. I nodded to her, and I watched her until she got out of Lance's hospital room. When Criza finally left, I turned to Lance again. He smirked as if he was going to start teasing me again, so I immediately came to him and lightly slapped his arm. "Ouch! Eliana! Did you really come here to hurt me?" he asked, then laughed slightly. "Yeah, because you're annoying! Why did you catch the bullet meant for me? You don't have nine lives," I complained to him. He laughed, so I glared at him. "Stop laughing. T
