These words seemed to wake up the man who was lost in thought. Bert withdrew his gaze and looked at the man on top of him. His pale face was flushed, not at all like his usual appearance.
"Suicide?" The corners of Bert's lips twitched, but he couldn't smile at all. It was just that his eyes finally became focused. "I never cared, but now, she gave me my life. Don't worry. I cherish it more than anyone else."
Hearing this, Huston was completely relieved. He turned over and patted the dirt off his hands. When he thought of how he couldn't find Bert just now and how he had been told by the nurse at the front desk that Bert had gone to the top floor, he still felt a lingering fear.
Although he couldn't say he had any fondness for Bert, after all, it was he who took in Evelyn, allowing Lucas to come into this world smoothly. This time, Alivia was also in danger for the sake of his child. He still felt a bit guilty in his heart and didn't want anyone to get hurt.
He was just somewhat surprised that Bert developed real feelings for that seemingly gentle and weak girl. They seemed to be from completely different worlds, but who could predict matters of the heart? When you meet someone, there's no escaping it.
After the two of them calmed down, Huston followed behind Bert, afraid that something would happen to him again. They returned to the door of the operating room, and the overhead lights went out just in time.
Bert straightened his body nervously and watched the doctor walk over. "Who's Alivia's family?"
Bert answered without hesitation, "Me."
"Relationship?"
