Chapter 72 Living for others

REDDINGTON HOSPITAL, LOS ANGELES.

Anthony stared hard at the screen of his computer, the resemblance between the two pictures he was staring at seem too striking to just pass by. He could have sworn he knows her from somewhere. Stretching out his neck, his eyes lingered on Emma. She looked busy with her back bent over while working rapidly on the computer.

He cannot seem to ignore the feelings that keep nagging at his mind for an entire week now. How is it possible that two different people would look so alike? It has been twenty-four years since he met her that night. Even though it has been such a long time, his mind still lingers on her and he finds himself searching for her in every face he comes across. But no one looks like her. However, this new staff of his just has too much in relation to her.

Isabella asked Darby.Darby tried to hide her blushing face away, she had woken up a little bit too excited probably because of the response on the Robin's Family post on the LA times. She didn't expect Leo to mention her name in capital letter. She was tagged the mother to the Robin Motors heir and it felt good. Even though she isn't concerning herself with the money or inheritance but it just felt good to be recognized."Just ignore me. Please pack Sinclair's things well enough. I don't want Leo having to worry about getting him things. You know how men can be, they don't know the difference between wipes and diapers." She said.Isabella chuckled as she folded the cloth judiciously into the bag. "There is no need for you to worry. I will be there after all.""I feel bad towards you, Bella.""Why is that?""You keep having to follow Sinclair around whenever he goes visiting his father. Leo has o

She had been expecting Desire to land in Pennsylvania by noon, however she had woken up early to get prepared and check for anything to be noted before her godmother arrived.Everything went south when she felt all round dizziness and almost collapsed to the floor.

Maureen noted.Emma exhaled, "I don't know what to do, Maureen. Darby hasn't reached out for an entire week now. Do you think it was a bad idea telling her about Anthony?""Give the girl a breathing space, Emma. She is only trying to wrap her head around the new information. And why would you even think it was a bad idea telling her about her father. It has been over two decades she deserves to know that there is actually a face to her sperm donor.""I feel like the world's most shameful mother.""Does calling yourself names make you feel better?""It's the truth, Maureen.

She asked him.He nodded, "I heard you loud and clear. I just thought you have something else to add to it.""I just want to know if I can get an abortion here." Chloe said more calmly.Smacking his lips, the doctor looked through his computer for a few seconds. "That won't be a problem after you have signed all the required papers for the procedure. But before that, a general test has to be conducted on you, that way we can be sure if abortion is a best bet for you.""Okay, how soon can I get the test result?""If we get on with it now, you would get it in the next thirty to forty minutes.""That sounds good.
