Never Late, Never Away Chapter 402
“Mom, can you now tell me the truth, please?” Still in disbelief, Vivian was in tears as she begged her mom for an explanation.
All her life, the notion that Harvey might not be her father had never crossed Vivian’s mind. Even though Harvey might not have been a good father, and she might even hate him for being a jerk sometimes, she had never entertained the idea of being better off without him in her life.
She could not comprehend the situation she was landed in. If Harvey is not my father, then who is?
“Rachel William, how long are you planning on keeping this from me?” Harvey was now screaming at Rachel for an answer.
“I-I’m sorry, I…” Rachel only managed to utter a few words before finally overcome by the pressure and passed out on the spot.
Vivian was shocked by her mother’s sudden black-out and rushed to her side. “Mom, are you okay? Mom, wake up!”
A nurse saw what happened and summoned a few other medical staff to rush Rachel into the emergency room.
“Doctor, how’s my mom?” Seeing as Rachel was still unconscious, Vivian frantically asked the doctor.
“Your mom’s health has always been a perilous juggling between medical treatments and therapies. She was actually getting better until recently when the emotional upheaval has worsened her condition again. It’s important that she refrain from having further mood swings,” the doctor reminded carefully.
“I understand. Thanks, doctor. When will she wake up?” Vivian asked.
“Don’t worry. She should awake in the next three to four hours.”
“Okay. Thanks again,” Vivian said while sending off the doctor.
