Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 41
Jessica's face seemed shocked about what I said. I don't know if she was pretending to be surprised, or if she really didn't know what her future husband had done. "How do you call yourself a professional when you can't even follow the agreement you have with my wife, Doc Liam?" "You know nothing, Doc Henrix. Don't question my professionalism just because you interfered in my partnership with Gwen. You know nothing, so stop meddling.” Liam gave me a sudden shock when he placed his hand on top of mine. "I understand your decision, Gwen. I respect that, so… if your decision is final, let's terminate the contract now.” I'm quite surprised that he accepted the termination that quickly. Well… since when did he understand anything meteorically? Is that a new version of Liam Soriano that I just discovered? He made my mouth shaped like an O. "This business is over... let's end it with a toast, shall we?" Jessica has led the way in getting a small bowl, and as far as I know it's soup. "In
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 42
"I told him that some of the identical twins could possibly have the same allergy in foods. Thanks to the studies that I recently looked at... that identical twins who inherit identical genes are far more similar to have the same allergies, unlike those fraternal twins." I have never heard that thing before, nor read some studies regarding that. But if anything, I'm not a med student or anything related to medicine to know about that. What's important... that study existed so that I could get through to Liam again and keep the truth hidden. "Did he believe it?" "I told him to message me to request the P*F file of the study I was referring to once he doubted my statement. I have a full copy of the file, so I'm ready in case he asks me one day," he bantered, gently moving my body upward. “You don't have to worry about that. What you think about now is to eat and heal. There are two of you and Audrey that I'm taking care of." He shook his head and took a bowl of soup from the table,

"To tell you frankly... none. But it's okay. As long as I know that the two beautiful women in my eyes are in good condition, I'm going to be fine.” I don't know what kind of food Hen ate, and I'm really surprised by his actions. He's been sweeter in the past days, and he even insisted on having our family day recently... for the first time in a while. He took good care of Aud and me... but then, I'm nervous. It's not that I'm overthinking, but instead of these days when Hen makes me happy and excited... after this, I'll suffer again while surpassing my upcoming crying days? "Then, tell us. Who is number 1 for Mom and me in terms of beauty?" "It's hard to choose-" "Why do you have to choose one... when you can choose both, right?" My intention was just to mock him, but I received no chuckles. "I think I can cook. What do you want to eat?” "It's too early for lunch,mom. Uh… it's only 9:30 am.” "Ohh..." "I'll just catch up on sleep, hmm?" Henrix sent a kiss to Audrey's cheeks, an

"Ahh, I forgot! He informed me earlier that he's going out to fetch Audrey at school. He actually told me earlier." She laughed softly before turning her back on me to rummage through her side cabinet for papers. And my mind was like... if he's really going to Audrey, he can tell me directly that he's going to Audrey. But during our conversation on the call, he sounded like he's going to an important business. And besides... why would he pick up Audrey if my daughter hasn't entered school yet after the incident that happened? He was caught in his own tongue. "Anyway, how are you? Do you still feel tingling in your mouth? Is there anything you feel weird in your body?" "I'm completely fine, doc. These rashes on my skin are my only problem. The others are gone, the others are still staying." Because it is so itchy, I am still really scratching. But to avoid injury, I only do mild scratching. "I also took Benadryl to treat these rashes. But I think I need more." "I was just about t
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 45
"And she knows when she brings Sarah back to her biological mother would be the huge reason behind her happiness." Who, as a child, would want to live apart from her parents? Sarah is still young, she has suffered in her life since she grew up and joined our family. She grew up to be a grade conscious student... and she never has to fail even once. And that's not the life I exactly want for her. "Then, where's the mother-" "As a cardiac surgeon myself, I led my team to perform an open-heart surgical procedure earlier this morning. It was very difficult to remove the tumor since the patient---her mother--- was diagnosed to have a cardiac sarcoma; a tumor in the heart tissue, and the location of the tumor is quite hard to locate." I frowned because it seemed random to me that he opened a topic that was not connected to what we were talking about. But probably, the patient he is referring to is Sarah's biological mother. "And the option left to us is just... proceed to heart transpla
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 46
We're in the middle of the trip going back to the hospital. I would like to ask for an update on whether the operation that Liam did earlier was successful. And I have also sent Lucile since I'm too lazy to bring my own car. She will just drop me off but she won't go inside with me... because I asked her to go back to Audrey immediately. My daughter has no one to be with when she wakes up but her nanny. "You know what... this is the first time this has happened in my life, Kris." "What is it again?" "Because my talking stage took two weeks." When I looked back at Lucile while driving, she was thrilled... as if she had achieved the greatest achievement in her life. "Usually, isn't it... the men I talk to, I think our convo lasts only three days. Then, ok. It's like a conversation that happens in the Near Group, that if your reply is two minutes late, the conversation will end immediately." "So, you're comparing your love life to a dating feature like Near Group?" "The status of my
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 47
"What if she starts hating me because of what I did? I know she'll never forgive me for not allowing her to know who her real father was. It's hard." "So, you chose to be the only one hurt? You should have thought of yourself too, Kris. You can deny Henrix’ offer to you then, can't you? Why didn't you do it?” “I want to give my daughter a sensible father. I want her to believe that she was raised by a good father and a loving one.” I really couldn't handle the long traffic we were facing, so I opened the car door. "I'll go first. I think this traffic won’t end.” ***** "You do not have to worry. Your operation was successful earlier." I was just silently looking at the ICU where the woman that Liam says is Sarah's biological mother is there. She is still being observed by doctors before being permanently transferred to a hospital room. "Perhaps Kris entrusted Sarah to you before she disappeared?" I heard Liam speak again. "She loves Sarah very much even though she is not our daug

I don't know the whole story yet. I don't know what the child's reason is for loitering on the road with a pale face as if she hasn't had food in her stomach for a week. Lucile has made sure to me that Sarah's doing well under one roof with Liam. And she even told me that aside from being a top student in her school, this kid also has a career in showbiz. And why the hell has she turned out to be a homeless person now? I just caught Sarah's eyes widening when I saw her talking to Dianne inside a room here at the health center. Instead of going in, I just sat there on the chair in front of her room while waiting for Dianne—as I allowed her to talk to her and inform me what Sarah was really up to. Sarah can't see me because I know even if I introduce myself to her as my own twin sister, I don't think she'll believe that instant. While waiting, I received a phone call from Henrix. At first I didn't want to answer it. He will probably just say hello to my checkup with my allergist, and
