“Miss Pola is a professional in child psychiatry? I think we should ask other psychiatrists for their advice as well.”
Hayden was unwilling to follow Pola’s advice because she didn’t think Pola would be reliable enough in her age.
“She will never harm Noah.” Joseph was a little awkward, “You should trust her about that.”
“Why? You’ve known her for a lone time?” His words bewildered Hayden. She lifted her eyes and looked at Joseph.
After the deliberation, Joseph said in a low voice, “I have something to tell you about her.”
Hayden was unnerved.
“What?”
Joseph paused for a while, “Pola is the biological mother of Noah.” After saying this, he looked into her eyes, trying to discover all the changes in her look.
This was the same situation as what she had imagined when she met Pola. She had thought about this in her mind for numerous times. But when Joseph really told her about that, she was still so dumbfounded that she felt like that hundreds of flies was buzzing around her.
Seeing Hayden was silent, Joseph started to explain, “I haven’t told you before because I’m afraid you would misunderstand. I didn’t ever think of I would meet her again when I pursued surrogacy back then. I happened to know what she was going through which you’ve also known about just now.”
Hayden forced herself to respond, “You are saying her husband’s cancer?”
“Yes.” Joseph frowned, “I’ve asked Magnus to arrange for the better treatment. But it’s the terminal cancer. She doesn’t receive my sponsorship either. She plans to study abroad a year later. But before that, she only hopes to meet Noah.”
Hayden took a deep breath, shuddering at this situation.
If it was a trap, the one who set the trap was planning this prudently. He managed to make Joseph feel sympathetic by making up Pola’s miserable experience.
No men would turn down her requirement.
The surrogate mother of his son married to a guy who got the advanced gastric cancer which was unable to cure. She did not want his money. All she wanted to do was to leave this city. And before that, she only wished to meet her son, who was the only one related to her by blood.
“Did you agree?” Hayden asked.
Joseph was unable to understand Hayden’s feeling, “My confession is to avoid any unnecessary misunderstanding. Noah won’t get in touch with Pola again.”
Hayden gazed at him, “In fact, you should tell me bluntly, what do you want me to do?”
Anger started to show in Joseph’s eyes. He was beginning to feel irritable, “I do not want you to do anything.”
His irritation also angered Hayden. She clenched her fists again, with her fingers growing grey.
“Yeah, you do not ask me to do anything, instead, you ask me not to take any action. You tell me to trust a woman unconditionally who jumps out to say she is Noah’s mother. You even want Noah to spend some time with her? What you want me to do is to support you and her for no reason, no matter what will happen.”
Joseph was puzzled by her abrupt anger.
“Stop it, you are being unreasonable about this.” He frowned, “Hayden, I’ve told you about the surrogacy. If you care so much about this, then I’ve got nothing to say.”
Hayden wanted to sneered at him, “I’m being unreasonable? How do you verify her identity? Have you checked her background? Is she really Noah’s mother?”
Joseph took a set expression on his face.
Hayden thought she might get to the point. But she lost her mind when Joseph showed her a picture of paternity test in his phone.
