Meanwhile, outside the emergency ward.After a seemingly unending hour passed, the emergency ward door finally swung open, and the medical staff wheeled out the unconscious patient on the hospital bed."Miss Corinne, we've managed to save the patient thanks to you," said the chief physician.Corinne nodded and said nonchalantly, "Glad to be of help."Lilin threw herself onto the hospital bed. She looked sadly at her mother and kept crying, "Mommy! Mommy!"The nurse bent down to comfort her. "Don't cry, little girl. Your mommy needs all the rest she can get. You can talk to her after she wakes up so be a good girl and let her rest."Lilin nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, I'll be a good girl and do as you say."Corinne walked Lilin to her mother's ward.According to the medical staff, the hospital managed to contact Lilin's family members, who were rushing over to the hospital as they spoke; they were expected to arrive in the afternoon.Corinne was relieved to know someone wo
Brian Addison refrained from starting another argument with his wife since she still did not fully recover from her injuries. He simply sat by her bed with Lilin in his lap and kept apologizing to her.The hospital dean personally came over to greet Brian when he got news of his arrival. "Mister Brian, I didn't know this lady here was your wife."Brian stood up and shook hands with the hospital dean. "Thank you for saving my wife's life!""You're most welcome but we're just doing our jobs.""By the way, my wife told me a lady insisted on donating blood to save my wife's life even though she was pregnant. Where is that lady now?""I wasn't there when it happened but I did hear about the lady you're talking about. I'm not sure who she is, but what I can tell you is she registered her name under Corinne Carew.""Corinne CarewQ That's more than enough for me to go on. I'll arrange for my men to look for her so that I can thank her properly."The hospital dean nodded. 'I do hope Mist
"Yes, Miss Carew donated some blood to a woman who was in a car accident and was in urgent need of a blood transfusion.""Why was she in Kanton City that day?"Tommy shook his head, "I can't find any other traces of Miss Corrine's actions, but that day, the eldest son of the Riveras also donated blood to the woman in the car accident at the Kanton City Hospital. Moreover, the eldest son of the Riveras was still in the central women's hospital in New Capital City. The obstetric hospital made an appointment for Miss Corrine to induce labor, and the operation is scheduled for today."Jeremy narrowed his eyes sharply, "Why did Lucas make an appointment for her to induce labor?"Tommy said solemnly, "Sir, the Sir of the Riveras has always loved his sister the most. Maybe he thinks that the child in Miss Carew's belly has something to do with you, so-"Jeremy froze slightly, his pupils shrank, and he suddenly realized what was important, "Go check it out right away, the hospital where I
As she pondered, Corrine's eyes filled with a shallow sense of hatred as she looked at Anya. "That's right, you've won! But you didn't win against me. You're only victorious because you have a brother who is willing to stand by you, regardless of right or wrong!"Brother-Corrine never felt such irony in those two words before. Lucas was her biological brother, but he stood on the side of the person who drove their mother to a dead end. He even doted on and protected that person's daughter.Lucas's intelligence was wasted on his work! Hmph, traitor!Anya smugly reveled in her confidence. "Do you envy me for having a good brother? It's something you'll never have! Good fortune is not something to envy, as it cannot be obtained! Now, you better go inside and get rid of the child. Maybe I'll show some kindness and make sure my brother doesn't trouble you in the future!"Corrine chuckled lightly. "Kindness, do you possess such a thing, Miss Rivera?"Anya's expression stiffened, and a
Jeremy calmly looked at Edmund and said, "If you have an issue, get your master to find me at the Holden Group! Now, all of you step aside!"Edmund hesitated. It would not be ideal to clash with the Holdens head-on. Mister Jeremy would not want the situation between the two families to worsen because of Miss Anya.Considering the gravity of the situation, Edmund raised his hand, gesturing for his subordinates to step back.Jeremy, expressionless, carried Corinne and walked through the group of people led by Edmund. Anya, however, pitifully approached them, wearing a worried expression. She asked, "Jeremy, is Corinne alright?"Corinne raised an eyebrow and looked at Anya, sincerely admiring her acting skills and adaptability. Just a moment ago, she had a fierce expression as if she could force a miscarriage, and now she pretended to care about her?When men encounter such delicate and pitiful women, they can't help but believe that they are the most unfortunate angels in the world,
He asked this question, indicating that he already investigated the ins and outs of the matter. Corinne pursed her lips and truthfully replied, "On that day at the hospital, Lucas happened to have the same blood type as a victim of a car accident. I saw that the victim's daughter was young and pitiful, so I wanted Lucas to help by donating blood. But he negotiated with me and demanded that I terminate the pregnancy. In my desperation, I agreed."Jeremy coldly snorted, "May I ask, Miss Corinne, did you obtain my permission before deciding to terminate my child?"Corinne furrowed her brow and her gaze trembled with guilt. "What child of yours! Please, Mister Jeremy, do not jump to conclusions. The child in my belly has nothing to do with you!""Turn around and look at me when you speak!" The man's tone became more severe.Corinne took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and turned her face to stare at him with wide eyes. She repeated, "The child in my belly has nothing to do with yo
Looking at her dumbfounded expression, Jeremy squinted his eyes and coldly snorted, "Don't you still know what you misunderstood?"Corinne regained her senses and looked at him. "Tell me, what did I misunderstand about you?"The man did not speak but took out a file from the storage bag on the back of the front seat and handed it to her.What is this again?Corinne raised an eyebrow in confusion and reached out to take the file. Inside, she found a document filled with characters resembling tadpoles, a foreign language she happened to understand. The title read 'Adoption Agreement', and the small print below revolved around adoption-related content.In the upper left corner of the document was a 2-inch passport photo, and the boy in the photo was the same child Anya carried around before.It was an adoption?Corinne furrowed her brow, raised her head, and looked at Jeremy with doubt. "If it's just an adopted child, why did I hear that child call you 'Daddy' so naturally?"The m
The man continued, "I know it's very wrong for a married man to accompany another woman to adopt a child, so I didn't know how to tell you. But I couldn't refuse Anya's request either because she saved my life years ago by sacrificing herself and was poisoned, resulting in irreversible damage to her body. She can never conceive again. So I've always felt deeply indebted to her and tolerated some of her inappropriate behaviors."Corinne relaxed and lowered her gaze, listening to him speak."You asked me before what Anya lost because of me. I didn't say it because I promised the Riveras that I wouldn't disclose the fact that their Miss Anya can't conceive and couldn't tell anyone. But I was wrong. You're not just anyone; I should have been honest with you and told you all this earlier."A strange sense of bitterness filled Corinne's heart. She was even a little unaccustomed to seeing this cold and dominant man speaking so humbly in front of her.Jeremy held her tighter as if he was s
