Hearing her words, Zayden reclined on the sofa, a headache creeping in.

He cursed the consequences of getting involved with Sadie.

What a mess!

Gradually, Sadie calmed down.

Sniffling, she said, “Since we’re here, we’re in this together.

I can help you achieve what you want.

“How?” Zayden found it hard to believe.

Sadie collected herself and said, “Holden believes I’m Adele’s mother.

Plus, he can’t be sure if this child is his.

He was drunk that night.

No need to cry anymore.

Then, Zayden ended the call.

He clenched his phone, thoroughly irritated by the humiliation today.

His resentment toward Holden deepened.

Just then, his phone rang again.

Assuming it was Sadie, he ans

wered impatiently, “What now?”

But the call wasn’t from Sadie; it was from his assistant.

The assistant sounded anxious.

“Mr.

Zayden stood up, threw his phone, and cursed out, “Damn it, Holden! If you want to play games, don’t blame me for messing with your head!”

At Mercy Hospital, Ariana lay in a deep coma, a consequence of the car accident’s impact and Sadie’s push.

She had a concussion.

The doctor assured her life wasn’t threatened, but the guarantee of her recovery remained uncertain.

Holden, a steadfast presence, kept watch by her bedside, his eyes never straying from Ariana.

He seemed insatiable in his scrutiny.

Meanwhile, Judy occupied a corner of the room, seated on a couch, observing Holden intently.

Her thoughts raced, and disbelief echoed within her as she examined him from head to toe.
