Lucas didn’t answer her. He didn’t look away either. He just stared at her. His eyes were deep and dark, like the bottomless sea.

Katherine forced a small smile. Seeing his expression, her heart trembled. She widened her eyes, barely daring to breathe. “Ivy wouldn’t…”

“No, she wouldn’t…” she whispered, trying to comfort herself.

She wouldn’t. She wouldn’t…

Ivy would be fine.

She struggled to get up, holding her chest as she coughed, and tried to go find Ivy.

But the man grabbed her arm and pulled her back down to the ground.

Katherine looked at him in confusion. “What are you doing?”

“That’s what I should ask you,” Lucas said coldly his face frighteningly dark. “Don’t you know you can’t swim?”

“I know.”

“Then why did you jump in to die? Are you stupid?”

It was the first time Katherine had heard Lucas curse. She didn’t understand why he was so

angry.

Was it just because she couldn’t swim and still jumped in to save someone?

But in that situation, even if she had a hundred chances to choose again, she would still in to save Ivy.

“How is Ivy? Tell me how she is!”

That was all Katherine cared about.

If something had happened to Ivy, she wouldn’t want to live either.

“Mr. Grant, Ms. Pearce, Ivy is fine. She has injured her forehead. The doctor gave her si

treatment. We’ll take her to the hospital for further care. She’s been calling for her mommy

Katherine’s heart lurched. She tried to stand, but a buried survival instinct forced her to

remain still.

Lucas’s sharp, intense gaze was still fixed on her

She was afraid he would suspect something. Between wanting to see Ivy and wanting to keep her secret hidden, Katherine struggled painfully inside.

Just when she was about to give in-thinking, fine, let him find out-Megan arrived.

“Mr. Grant, Ivy’s mother is here. She said she’ll go to the hospital with Ivy first and come back later to thank you and Ms. Pearce properly.”

“Got it.”

Katherine’s hand clenched at her side. She forced herself to calm down, feeling slightly

relieved.

“Thank you,” Katherine said to Lucas. She tried to get up again, but he grabbed her arm and pressed her back down.

She frowned and looked at him.

In a low voice, Lucas asked, “Why?”

“Why what?”

She didn’t understand.

“Why did you jump in knowing you can’t swim Katherine, you have nothing to do with that child.”

Nothing to do with her, yet she had looked ready to give her life for Ivy.

Katherine met his piercing gaze, and her heart started racing again.

“If I hadn’t saved you both just now, you would have died with her.”

She pressed her lips together.

“Your behavior makes me suspicious. Are you related to the child?”

There were too many cracks in her story.

Way too many…

Chapter 76 Searching for the Truth

From their meeting in Yarbrough until now, Katherine had shown many flaws. Even if each one had an explanation, they were still flaws.

Lucas had a feeling that everything she showed him was an act.

Only the two times she saved Ivy felt real.

Once when she blocked the boiling water. Once when she jumped into the sea.

Both times, she didn’t hesitate.

“Katherine, is Ivy the child we had back then?”

Lucas had always suspected it, but he had never asked her directly.

What happened today made him unable to hold back anymore.

He truly wanted to know if the child back then had really been aborted.

Was the child still alive? Was that child Ivy?

Katherine’s pupils trembled violently.

Lucas caught the change in her eyes. He grabbed her shoulders. “Katherine, Ivy is our child from back then, isn’t she?”

Out of his sight, Katherine’s fingers clenched tightly.

She looked deeply into his eyes.

He seemed to truly want to know. He seemed to truly care about the child.
