Chapter 1898
“She’s quite beautiful, and she seems like an intelligent woman.”
Theo’s face blushed scarlet as he replied, “Yes, she’s indeed an extraordinary woman.
“I used to think she was just an outstanding doctor, but the more I got to know about her past, the more I admire her.”
As he said this, he stared off into the distance, engrossed in his memories of Dr. Rachel.” Initially, I thought that she must’ve grown up in a family of doctors to become such an exceptional one, but after that, I found out that she was an orphan and had grown up in an orphanage. Everything she has now is a result of her hard work and determination…”
Bonnie nodded in agreement. “Don’t underestimate kids that grow up in orphanages; they can be surprisingly resilient.”
With that, she pointed at herself and added, “Actually, I had grown up in an orphanage myself.
Theo could not help furrowing his brows when he heard this. A split second later, he turned and stared at Bonnie in shock. “But aren’t you…the heiress to the Craig family?”
“Of course I am, but I accidentally got separated from my family when I was young.”
Bonnie stood up, gave a lazy stretch, and continued impassively, “I was adopted by the Lane family when I was a teenager, and I ended up falling in love with their son, Jason.
“He’s a bad person, but at that time, I naively thought that as long as he treated me well, it didn’t matter what kind of person he was to others, but…”
She let out a bitter smile. “After that, I found out that he treated me well because he had known all along I was the heiress to the Craig family fortune.
“Six years ago, he brought me to Banyan City to find my birth parents, but…my family refused to reclaim me, even with DNA evidence proving that I was their child, so I lost all my value to Jason.
“Thereafter, he tricked me into doing many bad things…and then wiped my memory after.”
Theo could not help feeling bad for Bonnie after listening to her story.
