Hearing this, Jane sighed helplessly and said with a bitter smile, "Then you have a good rest."
With these words, she turned around and left Martha's room, and also gently closed the door.
She understood Martha's feelings.
If it was her, she would also find it difficult to accept.
So now all she could do was give Martha a little more time ...
...
After Jane left, Martha collapsed on the sofa.
She stared blankly at the picture of her mother on the desk, her eyes growing more and more complex.
After a long time, she closed her eyes tiredly, her mind unconsciously recalled what she experienced in the conference room yesterday.
The woman in the wheelchair, looking at her with a smiling face, said with a smile, "I'm not your mother."
Martha stiffened slightly, looking at the woman with a look of disbelief.
How can she look so much like her mother if she is not her mother?
Soon the woman, who was Louis' mother, gave an answer.
"I am your mother's twin sister, my name is Eve Lucas."
Martha looked at the woman in front of her in dismay, and her mind went blank for a moment.
A completely new name, a complete stranger suddenly appeared in front of her, saying that this was her mother's sister, which shocked her greatly.
The corners of her lips trembled slightly, and a thought unconsciously surfaced in her mind.
Could it be that the mother's name, too, was not Bella Burton?
She thought of this, her red lips lightly parted, as she asked, "What about my mother?"
Eve saw the shock in Martha's eyes, and naturally she understood what the latter was stunned about.
She looked at the other party's eyes softened a bit and softly explained.
"Your mother is the eldest daughter of the Lucas family, Elsie Lucas."
"Elsie ..."
Martha's lips parted and she murmured and repeated the name.
She really didn't remember anything about the name.
But Eve's resemblance to her mother that much already said it all.
Only, at this time, she still had some difficulty accepting it.
She shook her head uncontrollably and denied in a trembling voice, "No, my mother is Bella, she is not Elsie."
Eve looked helplessly at Martha in front of her, with a heart-wrenching look in her eyes.
"Martha, I don't have to lie to you."
"Impossible, I never heard my mother say that."
Martha took a step back, the shock in her eyes unmistakable.
Heartbroken, Louis stepped forward and tried to grab her, but the latter stepped back.
She looked at Eve and Louis in front of her and asked in an emotional voice, "Why did you lie to me? My mother is obviously Bella."
Louis looked helplessly at Martha in front of him and explained in a soft voice.
"We didn't lie to you, it's all true."
"Your mother changed her name after she left the family and came to this city. Later, she met your father, and should also want to live a good life, otherwise she would not have given birth to you."
Martha kept shaking her head, the hand on her side unconsciously tightened, trying to keep a trace of sanity.
