Chapter 614 She Is Still Very Weak
Upon hearing that, Melissa let go of the woman in her arms and grinned, "Well, do you miss me?"
"Of course I do," Martha replied with a smile, and then asked curiously, "How do you know I'mcoming back?"
"Eden told me."
Melissa blinked slyly, and reached out to hold Martha's arm intimately.
Martha realized it was Stefan who told Eden.
Before she could speak, Melissa's voice sounded again, "What's wrong with you? What happened?Why do you look so bad?"
"Didn't Eden tell you about that?"
Martha turned to look at her friend in puzzlement, with obvious shock in her eyes.
Eden told Melissa about their return to C Country, but why did he not mention such a big thing toMelissa?
Just when she was confused, Eden's gentle voice sounded beside her.
"I was afraid she was too worried about you, so I didn't tell her that."
Melissa looked at Martha suspiciously, and then at Eden, not understanding what they were talkingabout.
Finally, her eyes fell on Martha, "Tell me, what's going on? Is it related to your health?"
"Hmm," Martha responded softly, and just as she was about to explain, Stefan said in a deep voice,"Let's get on the car first and talk slowly."
"OK." Without waiting for Martha's answer, Melissa had already given one for her.
After the four of them got into the car, Melissa couldn't wait to ask, "So how are you now? Have youdone a physical examination?"
"Yes, my situation has been stabilized."
Hearing long-lost concern from her best friend, Martha felt warm inside.
When she was in the basement, she once thought she would not survive, but now she was fine.
Melissa, who was sitting next to her, breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, "It's a good thingthat you're fine."
Then she turned to look at Martha in doubt, and urged, "Tell me what happened to you. Why did yousuddenly get sick?"
"Melissa, I was swapped. The woman who came back a while ago isn't me."
As soon as Martha finished explaining, Melissa's shocked voice sounded in the car.
"What? You meant you weren't the one getting married to Stefan this time?"
Martha nodded slightly, with a wry smile on her lips unconsciously.
Speaking of it, life is like a play.
She married Stefan twice, and it didn't work out even once.
The first time they got married, she escaped marriage alone to seek out the truth of her mother'sdeath.
Later, the truth came to the light and yet she was switched by a clone who got married to Stefaninstead.
Stefan carefully prepared two grand weddings, but she attended neither of them, and she wonderedhow Stefan would feel about it.
Melissa was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses and grabbed Martha'shand.
"What... what's going on here?"
"The woman who returned to C Country last time is a clone, cloned by my fake grandmother."
After Martha answered the most crucial question, she reached for the water Stefan handed overand took a sip.
In the next second, Melissa's voice was raised once again in shock.
"Clones? Has someone really conducted experiments to create clone humans in this world?"
"Um," Martha responded in a low voice, and then slowly said everything she experienced in ZCountry.
"I went back to Z Country just to find out the real cause of my mother's death, but I accidentallyfound some members from the Lucas family were involved in my mother's death. Later, the truthwas brought to light."
"The night before I left Z Country, I visited Grandma to say goodbye to her. Yet I found a lot ofbadges in my grandmother's room. And my mother also had a similar badge. Then, the old Mrs.Lucas suddenly appeared, with a dark voice, and I was startled and passed out."
"When I woke up again, I found myself tied to a stone pillar. And the old Mrs. Lucas drew my bloodwith a needle every day."
When Martha said that, she paused to recover some strength.
Melissa looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "Why did she do this?"
"To survive," Martha replied lightly, and continued to explain, "The old Mrs. Lucas is not my realgrandmother, she is a fake, a clone invented by the ancestors of the Lucas family."
"I don't know why the Lucas family researched human cloning. I only know that when the ancestorsof the Lucas family cloned the fake grandmother, the technology was not yet perfect."
"So the fake grandmother can only survive by drinking the blood of descendants of the Lucasfamily."
Melissa froze in place when she heard that.
She never expected that Martha had been through so many twists and turns.
She pursed her red lips, and after a long time of shock, she asked with concern.
"So you are so weak now because too much blood has been drawn?"
"Hmm," Martha responded with a wry smile, and her face grew paler.
She knew that her current physical condition was not good, so she could only recuperate slowlyafter returning home.
She was lucky to be alive.
After hearing that, Melissa hugged Martha distressedly, with a crying tone in her voice.
"Martha, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were suffering so much."
"Silly girl, you did nothing wrong, why do you apologize?"
Martha smiled and patted her best friend's back, a layer of sweat was forming on her forehead.
Melissa blamed herself and cried, "If I had found out earlier that you were going to Z Country andaccompanied you, that would not have happened."
"All right, don't you want to know how Stefan found me later?"
Martha reached out to gently wipe away Melissa's tears, and continued to talk about what happenedin Z Country.
"When I was caught in the basement, I was drawn a syringe of blood by that old hag every day."
"Just when I was dying, Stefan came to Z Country with fake Martha."
"Stefan discovered that the Martha came back home with him was a fake, so he took her to ZCountry, teamed up with the king of Z Country, as well as my uncle and cousin, to trick the fake intoexposing the place where I was locked up."
"Later, I was rescued by them."
Martha's pretended relaxed smile caught Melissa's eyes, making Melissa feel even moredistressed.
Melissa held her best friend's hand distressedly, and said solemnly, "When I get back, I must makeup for you for all the losses you have suffered during this period."
A smile rose to Martha's lips. She responded, "Okay, I will listen to you from now on."
"Good girl." Melissa stroked Martha's hair with dull pain in her heart.
She didn't know why Martha, such a good girl, kept getting hurt.
She had been tortured by Stefan in the past. Later, she conceived, gave birth alone and took care ofher critically ill child in a foreign country.
After Martha went through so many things, Melissa only hoped that she would be safe and sound inthe future.
Thinking of this, Melissa raised her eyes suddenly, and looked dissatisfiedly at Stefan who wassitting in the passenger seat.
"Stefan, if you dare to let Martha down in the future, I will not let you go."
"I won't let her down," replied Stefan. He looked at Melissa with determination in his eyes.
Then he shifted his gaze on Martha, and it became affectionate.
Looking at her haggard face, he secretly made up his mind to find a nutritionist to take care ofMartha properly.
After Martha saw her best friend calm down, she asked suspiciously, "Do you know where Jimmy isnow?"
"At the Doyle Manor."
Melissa wiped the tears from her eyes and replied in a muffled voice.
She didn't know Martha's honeymoon trip before, but she found it out she went to the Doyle Manor.
Later, when she learned that Martha was coming back today, she woke up early, bought someingredients, and went to the Doyle Manor to tell Bianca and Maxwell the good news.novelbin
She had thought Martha and Stefan would come back with good news after a honeymoon trip.
She never knew Martha alone would suffer so much.
Thinking of that, she held Martha's hand tightly again, "Don't worry. Jimmy is at home waiting foryou to come back."
"Hmm," Martha responded in a low voice, and suddenly leaned close to Melissa's ear, "How arethings progressing between you two?"
"What?" Melissa looked at Martha confusedly, and asked.
A light smile lifted the corner of Martha's mouth, and she blinked slyly, "Eden hasn't proposed to youyet?"
Melissa lowered her head shyly, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito, "He has."
