At the time, Quinton felt regret over what he did.
If he had known that it was Tremaine but not Noel who wanted the ovum, he would've given out Lavender's.
To be able to help a powerful man like Tremaine give birth to a child was something like a blessing of a lifetime.
Unfortunately, he had given out the ovum and regret could do nothing to change that.
Quinton had been in the black market for a long time and had dealt with all sorts of people before. He may not be heartless or strong, but as time passes, he'd forgotten all about it.
However, he didn't expect that Tremaine's butler would look for him again and ask him to find the ovum donor.
Quinton was both angry and speechless by Lavender's idea.
His precious daughter had always been smart. How could she say something this stupid?
Did she not know what kind of person Tremaine was? Was he a fool that could easily be tricked?
Did Lavender think that he would believe him just because Quinton told him that Lavender was the ovum donor?
Quinton was pretty sure that Tremaine would do a paternity test.
Quinton rejected Lavender's idea, "Stop spewing nonsense, Lavender. Tremaine is no fool."
Lavender stood firm to her idea. "Dad, my blood type is as rare as it is. If you tell him that I am the ovum donor, he would not suspect anything."
"Don't you think that he'll do a paternity test?"
A dark flash shone in Lavender's eyes. "Dad, we can manipulate the results!"
Quinton's breathing hitched.
He understood his daughter's meaning!
However, this wasn't something small.
Quinton thought about it and shook his head. "No, it's too dangerous. Besides, we don't know anyone from the hospital. Why and how would they help us? Forget it, you'd better give up on this idea!"
"Dad, wealth comes from taking risks! This is a good chance for our family to turn over. Do you really want to throw this chance away?"
"The paternity test is no child's play. The hospital will not help us!" Quinton said.
Catherine also stood up and said, "Lavender, why do you have such an idea? Your father is right. Our family is powerless. Who will help us forge the results of a paternity test? Drop the idea."
"Mom, Dad! You are powerless, but there's one man who has the power and he will definitely find a way!" Lavender raised her voice.
Quinton and Catherine were shocked.
Was Lavender thinking about looking for that man?
The next day soon arrived.
Tremaine went to Montez's ward.
Pushing the door open, he saw Montez sleeping.
Yesseca was also sleeping.
She was holding Montez.
They were sleeping soundly.
The sunlight from the window shone on Yesseca's face.
Her face glowed under the light.
Tremaine narrowed his eyes.
Yesterday, Yesseca took care of Montez all day and she didn't leave at all. Montez obviously would not let her go.
When night came, they both fell asleep on the same bed.
Fortunately, Montez was in the VIP ward so the hospital bed was not too small and it was enough to accommodate two people.
Tremaine walked over and stopped by the bedside.
As he got closer, he could hear Yesseca's shallow breathing and see the fine hair on her white cheeks.
Her long and thick eyelashes were now quietly resting against her eyelids.
Tremaine was lost in thought.
Was Yesseca really Montez's mother?
If she was really Montez's mother, then everything seemed to make sense.
Did he misunderstand her before?
After a moment, Tremaine turned around and walked out of the ward.
Noel soon arrived.
"Mr. Tremaine, I've already found that guy. He said that he'll bring the girl to see you tomorrow," said Noel.
Tremaine's mind went blank for a few seconds.
It turned out that he had made a mistake.
Montez's mother was not Yesseca.
That was right, with Yesseca's age, it was impossible for her to be her mother.
What's more, he had found that Yesseca stayed and spent most of her time in the hospital.
Someone with a body like hers was not allowed to do any ovum extraction surgery.
