Results of the Patenty Test
The ambulance rushed Ashley to the hospital emergency room.
At her request, they drew blood for an HCG test, confirmingher pregnancy.
Thankfully, both she and the baby were fine, and she would be able to leave the hospital after resting aletle
However, she found it hard to walk.
After she went through all her contacts, she finally dialed Emelle’s number. “Emelle, we confirmed that I’m pregnant.
melie’s voice was hoarse. “What do you intend to do? Do you intend to keep the child
She knew Ashley had been on birth control
“Yes, Twant to keep it “Ashley didn’t hesitate.
Despite whatever that had happened between her and Elias, this child was hers. It was the only person in the world she was biologically connected to
With this child, she wouldn’t be alone anymore. She had always felt lonely living in the world after her parents passed away.
*Emelie, can you accompany me tonight?” Ashley asked.
Under normal circumstances, Emele would have agreed.
*‘ll send Mona to beep you company,” Emele replied softly
“Did something happen?” Ashley asked
“I’m taking care of my mother in the hospital,” Euelle said.
Ashley didn’t press for more details. “Okay.”
Emele hung up the phone.
Although she had claimed to be at the hospital taking care of her mother, she was actually sitting on a chair in the hospital corridor.
Emelie was barred from seeing her mother by Eliana
Since her return, she had paid for all her parents” expenses. She should have been the most qualified person to be by Gretz’s side
However, after tonas committed suicide by jumping from a building, and after she had done that paternity test, she suddenly lost her standing
As she put her cell phone back in her bag, she spotted the folder containing the A4 paper. Her eyes lost their spark as she zipped up her bag
*Eme” Mona held two cups of hot cocoa and handed her one. “You’ve been sitting here all afternoon. It’s almost ten. Why don’t you go back to our apartment to rest first
“Well, I go back by myself in a little while, Emelie said “Please accompany Ashley tonight. Although she didn’t say anything. I think that she isn’t in a good mood.”
“I’m worried about you being alone.” Just them, an idea struck Mona. “Let’s book for Ashley together tonight, and I’ll accompany both of you ”
El smiled and said, “Are you organizing a gathering I’m fine. I’ve taken a break for an attemoon, and I’m already back to normal. I still have to go back to Eastbay.”
*Regarding that matter, do you plan to tell that bastar–sorry, I meant to say, Mr. Middleton? Mona asked.
As Emelle hadn’t thought it through yet, she hurried Mom to leave.
Mona thought that Emelle probably wanted to sit quietly, so she walked all.
When Eliana emerged from the hospital room and saw Emelie still there, she pursed her lips and said, “I’ll give you one last chance to go in and see my mother. After this time, don’t disturb our Eves anymore.”
with that, she walked away briskly.
After a while, Emebe finallystood up and walked to the door of the hospital room.
Greta was awake, lying on her side facing away from the door so her emotions couldn’t be seen
However, the heart monitor beside her showed no significant fluctuations, she was probably quietly digesting the news of Ronan’s suicide.
Emelie pondered guling in to speak to her. But what was there to say?
Should she say, “Dad is gone, but don’t be sad. You still have us.” Or should she say, “I did a DNA test and found out I’m not your biological child. Who am I exactly?
She took a small step forward. Then, she backpedaled, deciding that it was better to forget it
She wasn’theartless. How could she interrogate her mother about her hidden secrets while she was grieving her husband’s death?
Emelie lowered her head and didn’t enter the room in the end.
Some people say that the New Year hasn’t passed until February ends.
As Emelie walked alone on the street, she entered a group of young children playing with sparklers.
When she was young, her family ran a small supermarket that sold these items. She often sneaked out with Eliana and Ashlyn to play with sparklers, hiding from Banan and Greta.
she stopped in her tracks, watching the sparklers shooting sparks like flowers of stars in the children’s hands. The sight was dazzling and beautiful to behold.
As the children chased each other and played around, one of the spent sparklers that was lit but burned down, fell to the ground. Emelie initially thought to stamp out the embers to prevent any danger
However, in die watched it, she had the urge to fuel the flames instead.
She took but the paternity test report from her bag and touched a corner of the paper to the fire in an instant, the tire flared up
