Kathy was struck dumb, and her face immediately turned pale.
She was trying to understand what Maurice had said.
Thoughts that had never occurred to her before flashed through her mind, causing her to tremble all over.
That was impossible...
“It’s up to Kathy. I don’t know how to tell her about this.”
“If you don’t have the heart to tell her the truth, I’ll tell her.” Maurice held Angela’s hand.
Kathy had already frozen with shock. Joseph, who also heard the conversation, hugged her from behind and said softly, “How about I accompany you out for a while?”
Kathy shook her head and pushed open the ward’s door.
Angela and Maurice looked at her at the same time.
Kathy walked in step by step. When looking at Angela, she wore a cold expression.
“Mom, what are you talking about?” Her voice trembled slightly.
Angela revealed a sorrowful look, and tears immediately fell down her cheeks.
Maurice gently patted her shoulder and stood up. “Kathy, did you hear our conversation?”
“Yes.”
“Maurice, please go out first.”
Not long after, there were only Kathy and Angela in the ward.
“Mom ... No ... Who is my biological mom?” Actually, Kathy heard the truth just now.
However, she thought it was unbelievable.
Jennifer?
She was Billy’s mother.
She remembered that when Jennifer was in critical condition, she had saved her because they had the same blood type.
Later, Jennifer was nice to her, and she also seemed to have a strange affinity for Jennifer.
“It’s Mrs. Hilton. Kathy, I’m sorry,” Angela said with a sigh.
She had thought of telling Kathy the truth countless times, but she didn’t have the heart to say it.
She didn’t want to lose Kathy, nor did she want to deceive her.
“Mom … My mom is you, right?” Kathy held Angela’s hand and kept shaking her head.
She did not believe that the woman who had raised her since childhood was not even her relative.
Her voice was choking with despair, and she looked distressed.
“Since you know the truth, I will ask Jennifer to pick you up. Since I am leaving City N, I can rest assured if you go back to her.”
“No! You’re my mom!” Kathy said angrily. She could not accept the fact.
Her family had never been a rich one, but she was satisfied with such a simple and happy life. Her happiest thing was to enjoy Angela’s company.
Could it be that all of this was fake?
“Did she abandon me?” After calming down, Kathy asked with a trembling voice.
“Jennifer will tell you the exact reason. Kathy, you will always be my daughter…” Angela couldn’t help but cry. After all, she raised her up from childhood. Kathy should have returned to Jennifer long ago. However, because of her selfishness, she cheated Kathy for so long.
“You are my mother. This is a fact that will never change,” Kathy said in a low voice.
After leaving the ward, she leaned against the wall. She felt cold all over, which made her uncomfortable.
She was so dizzy that she couldn’t hold on anymore. Then she fainted.
Joseph supported her and picked her up.
In the evening, Kathy woke up in Joseph’s embrace and saw the familiar bedroom.
His handsome face was so close that she could see his worried expression.
“I...”
Why was she back home?
Wasn’t she in the hospital?
Angela’s words seemed to still ring in her ears. She gradually curled up and her body was trembling slightly.
“Where’s my mother?” she asked.
“She hasn’t been discharged yet. She will leave City N tomorrow,” Joseph said calmly.
This was what Angela asked him to tell Kathy.
Kathy became panicked and she immediately got out of bed.
Joseph held her in his arms and said, “You haven’t eaten all day. Go eat first.”
