No matter how small a fetus was, it was still a life. It really was not as simple as he said. That was her son, and she could not just abort him like that!“Then do you want to just watch your biological mother die before your eyes?” Ronald put down the mug of coffee and looked at her. The atmosphere between the two was extremely stuffy and tense, making it hard for people to breathe…Ronald was just looking at her with his serious and dark expression. There was an indescribable sense of power and authority from him. However, Summer’s expression was cold as she stared back at him. There was not an ounce of warmth in her eyes. “That’s why I said I can’t go through with the transplant now. The baby is mine, and I can’t just take its life away like that!”Ronald had no thoughts about the one-month-old baby in her belly, let alone some empathy. He did not understand. How could an unborn baby be more important than a person who had been living for a long time?The fetus was just a
Ronald was caught off guard by his unpredictable attack. A heavy punch landed on him, sent him wobbling backward. He held onto the side of the table to keep himself from falling.Eyebrows furrowing with anger, he vehemently exclaimed, "This punch, is for my mother and the atrocious deeds you have committed!" His words were as cold as ice.Following that, he punched Ronald again, saying, "This is from me and Jazz!".After being struck twice in quick succession, Ronald stumbled against the table. He panted softly, and his cheeks ached. Yet, he maintained his authoritative figure as a father. "Mark, you’re going overboard!".“Since you have the audacity to do this, you should bear the consequences!” Mark shot Ronald a glare with an indifferent and distant expression. “I’m warning you, don’t you ever approach her again. Or else, I swear I will do worse than beat you!"Following that, Mark gave Ronald a cold glance before striding towards the door of the café. A few of the cafe custo
Samantha frowned upon looking at Ronald’s swollen face. “What happened to your face?” she asked strangely.“Nothing. I just walked into something.” Ronald brushed off her question. Even though he was not hurt badly, he still felt anger inside of him. It was just that the anger was already vanishing at this time. “How are you so clumsy? Don’t you use your eyes when you walk?” Samantha asked the nurse to bring some ice and put it on his bruise. Ronald sat there heavy-heartedly as he felt very upset. Making Summer donate her bone marrow was only going to get tougher. Mark was already aware of it, and he certainly would not allow it to happen...As Mark pushed open the apartment door, the dim yellow lighting in the house melted away his sorrow a little. The tense lines on his face softened too. Summer was making dinner in the kitchen while Charlotte was babbling out her ABCs while writing them down. “ABCEF…”Even after they had repeatedly told her four to five times, she sti
“What reasons?” Of course, Yvette did not want anybody to donate their bone marrow to Samantha. She even wished that she could just die. Mark did not hide anything from her, and he did not think there was a reason to do so anyway. He cut to the chase and said, “She’s pregnant…”For a moment, Yvette went completely silent on the other end of the phone. Only the sound of her breathing was flowing in the air. Summer being pregnant again was totally out of her expectations. However, she was the only person with a compatible bone marrow, so there could not be a better time for her to be pregnant. Even though the baby inside of her belonged to Mark, she could not be bothered about it at that moment. To her, Ronald and that cunning woman were the main problems.“Okay, I understand now. I won’t let both of them have an easy time!” Yvette was still angry, and her stomach was still filled with burning flames.Mark’s eyes looked deep after he hung up the phone. He believed that he needed
She got even angrier and irritated when she shoved Mark out of the apartment with just one push. “Okay, if you’re so capable, leave now and never step back in. You’re a b*tch if you ever step inside again!” Summer slammed the door shut right after she was done talking, causing a loud bang. Mark lost his balance when the door came toward him almost hit him on the nose. Mark did not try to go inside anymore as he was worried that he might make her even angrier. When he got into his car, Charlie gave him a call. He muttered curses under his breath and suppressed his exasperation before he started the car. Charlie howled at top of his lungs in the pub. Mark could not put up with him anymore as he threw a cigarette at him. “Shut your d*mn mouth.” Mark started drinking as he sat on the couch. His mood was not any better. “Had a fight? She is a pregnant woman now so it’s natural for her to have unstable emotions. Haven’t you heard that pregnant women can cry now and laugh at
“When you’re with me, you don’t have to worry. You don’t have to think too much or pick your words when you talk to me, okay? We are the closest to each other. You don’t have to be rational and calm in front of me. Just like what happened earlier, you can throw a fit and make a mess out of yourself. I love every side of you, do you understand?”She nodded in response. The fact that he knew about the truth did make her feel relieved. “But no matter what happens in the future, you can’t hide anything from me anymore!” Mark obviously did not want to give in to her. His deep eyes narrowed as he started negotiating with her. “A deal is made by mutual agreement. It can never be one-sided…”“Okay, and I’m sorry. I didn’t mean what I said just now, so please don’t take it seriously. I had no idea why those words just came out of my mouth like that—”He did not wait for her to finish speaking as he leaned toward her and bit her rosy lips. He kissed her, swallowing her breaths and words alt
He dialed Raine’s number when he got into his car. After some time, the other end answered the call.“Where are you now, Raine?” Ronald put his luggage in the backseat and had the driver drive him back to the hospital. “Athana.” It sounded like chaos at Raine’s end. There were people talking and it was loud, until the point that he could not hear her clearly. Ronald furrowed his brows. “When did you go to Athana? I thought you decided to stay in Santabaca.”“Of course I am staying in Santabaca, but I still have to hand over my work here. It has already been quite some time since I’ve been here.”“When are you coming back?”“I’ll be back in Santabaca tonight if everything goes according to plan.”“Give me a call when you’re at the airport and I’ll go pick you up. There is something that I need to talk to you about.”Summer responded, “Okay…”Valentine Mansion When Yvette returned to Valentine Mansion, the servants told her that Ronald came back just now.Yvette was somewha
His words were like a grenade thrown right into her brain. The explosion disrupted her hearing as loud bangs were the only thing that rang in her ears. “That’s not funny at all, Ronald.”“I’m not joking, Raine. You know that I have always been a serious person. You can go and take a DNA test if you still don’t believe me.” Raine could not listen to anything more from him and continued to ask, “Then who is she to you?” He knew he could not hide their relationship forever. It would only be a matter of time before his family found out about them, and so will Raine. So, there wasn’t any reason for keeping Samantha in the dark. “Do you remember when you asked me who I loved? It’s her.”The world is not a big place, nor was it small. But what even are the odds of this? Raine thought it was absurd and ridiculous. “There is actually another more important thing that I need you to know. She is suffering from leukemia and she needs someone with compatible bone marrow for her treatme
