Chapter 351 Just an Illegitimate Child
“Thank you.”
Terrence nodded, his words full of respect for Christina.
When they were almost at a dead end, Christina gave them a glimmer of hope.
Terrence could not forget such kindness.
After a short sob, Christina gradually sorted out her emotions.
“Sorry, I lost my composure.”
She wiped her tears clean.
Christina always paid attention to her composure. In front of others, she always had a cold expression.
She got up and walked to the end of the corridor. When she reached the garden, she took out acigarette from her bag.
“Do you have a lighter?” Christina asked calmly.
“No.” Terrence’s voice was cold. “I don’t smoke.”
“Oh, forget it.”
Christina casually said it and threw the cigarette into the trash can.
“More than twenty years ago, I gave up my profession as a doctor,” she spoke slowly as if she wastelling a story, “When I was giving emergency treatment to a bleeding pregnant woman, I made amistake. She died on the operating table.”
“Doctors are humans, not deities.”
“If I did not manage to save Alexa this time, would you blame me?” Christina looked at Terrence andwore a bitter smile.novelbin
“You will, right?”
Before Terrence’s reply, she continued.
“Although I saved the baby, the family of the pregnant woman wants to kill me.
“I bear this ‘sin’ for twenty years. When I dreamed, I would always remember that woman’s eyes ofunwillingness…”
In the end, Christina’s voice lowered.
“But a few days ago, that child returned.”
Before she could finish speaking, Terrence had guessed who that person was.
“It was Irvin, right?”
As a result, all the dots were connected.
“He is Scott’s illegitimate son.”
Terrence’s tone showed absolute affirmation.
Christina raised her head to look at the distant sky. Suddenly, her eyes stung.
“That woman is Jovan’s younger sister. Scott even personally sent the child to the Niebergall’s place.”
She did not want to mention the past, but now, she still went against her heart.
“Scott felt guilty towards Irvin and Jovan. He practically accepted all of their sins.
“The commercial negotiation you participated in was indeed a trap.
“A life, when compared with the battle for power and profit between wealthy families, is nothing.”
Christina had a mocking expression. People all thought that she did not care about everything that washappening, but she didn’t miss any of them.
“What do you want me to do?”
“Do you need to ask?”
Christina frowned and her tone became much stricter.
“Do your best to protect Alexa and then take her away.”
“I will.”
“But I don’t believe in the rich.”
Christina picked up the conversation and asked her assistant to bring over a contract.
“I need you to give me a promise,” Christina said sternly, “You must guarantee that you will not dothose stupid things and will treat her well for the rest of your life. Otherwise, all the capital of the DuranGroup that you got will be returned to Alexa.”
In Christina’s eyes, there was a hint of inquiry.
“Terrence, do you dare?”
Unexpectedly, Terrence did not hesitate at all. After taking the contract, he signed his name.
“I hope you can rest assured, but at the same time, you can set up as many tests for me as you want,”he said calmly, “I can guarantee that I will not disappoint you.”
Christina nodded. Her attitude towards Terrence seemed to have changed a lot.
“Go back to the ward and stay with Alexa.” Christina was confident. “This operation is successful. Atleast, she will be safe for six months.”
“What about the follow-up?”
“You said that I am a doctor, not a deity, so I have no way to make a promise to the future.”
“Okay.”
Terrence nodded and went back to the ward.
He asked Edwin to get more guards, and Keyon also sent many people over.
However, when Terrence passed the corridor, he found that Keyon was sitting there.
His expression was gloomy, and his eyes were dark.
“Have you seen him?” Terrence asked.
“Terrence, are you willing to cooperate with me?”
“Tell me.”
“Send them all to prison.”
This was nothing to Terrence.
However, the hatred in Keyon’s eyes was monstrous, and it was obvious that he was playing a biggergame.
“I have collected enough evidence. Next, I only need Derick to be the witness,” Keyon said in a deepvoice, “You don’t need to care about what I will do, but I hope that you can come to testify.”
“Sure.”
At this time, Christina received a call from Scott and returned to the villa.
Scott was sitting on the sofa with a dark face. Several lawyers and consultants were standing next tohim.
When he saw Christina, he waved his hand irritably to have those people leave.
The atmosphere was quiet for a moment. Scott suddenly picked up the medical records on the tableand threw them at Christina’s feet.
“Don’t you have the best medical team?” he questioned her, “Irvin is just suffering from food poisoning.Why hasn’t he recovered after being treated for so long?”
Christina glanced at Scott coldly and took a deep breath.
“It must be your son’s doing!”
Scott was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up. When he looked at Christina’s reddenedeyes, there was no sympathy in his eyes.
In front of outsiders, he could play the role of a loving father.
But in Scott’s heart, Irvin was the most important person.
“My son? Isn’t he also your son?” Christina laughed angrily.
“Don’t forget who killed Paxton back then.”
Scott looked at Christina with undisguised hatred and disgust.
“If not for the fact that you gave birth to two children for the Duran family, do you think you can live untilnow?”
“Scott, you are just a heartless bastard!
“A bastard!
“They caused Alexa’s miscarriage and her life is in danger. You just turned a blind eye to it.” Christinasneered. “But you were nervous when your illegitimate child was slightly injured like your world isgonna collapse. Scott, look what you’ve done.
“The person I love has always been Paxton. For your child, I have tried my best to put up with them.
“Scott, I want a divorce.”
Christina said these words firmly, but what she received was a slap.
Scott stood in front of Christina with a cold expression and grabbed her neck in anger.
“Don’t even think about it.”
“Kaff kaff…”
“Don’t you like to be Mrs. Duran? Aren’t you jealous enough to kill Paxton?”
Scott gritted his teeth and increased the strength in his hands. “I will keep a vicious and lowly womanlike you by my side and torture you for a lifetime.” After venting his anger, Scott threw Christina away inextreme disgust.
“You better do your best to cure Irvin. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that the medicine to cure yourdaughter can be developed.”
