Martin Weiss continued saying, “If you can take such risks for the baby in your belly, why can’t I take such risks for you?”
“I’m taking the risk because the child is a little human life. Since they’ve chosen me as their mother, I’ll fight for this child. On the other hand, you’re taking such a big risk to get your blood drawn, but the chances that I’ll need it is so slim that you don’t need to do it at all!” said Kyla.
Martin Weiss said, “So, you don’t think it’s necessary? But…! want to take every safety precaution possible. Even if there’s very little chance of something happening, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible, right? Either way, I’m going to keep getting my blood drawn and storing it until you deliver the baby. If you don’t need the blood, that’s all the better. It can then go to others who may need it. It won’t go to waste.
Kyla did not know how to persuade Martin Weiss anymore. Once a man like him made up his mind, it was hard to change it.
After the meal, Martin Weiss accompanied Kyla back to the hospital to collect her test results.
Everything was well, so there was nothing to worry about for now.
When the two walked out of the hospital, Kyla looked at Martin Weiss. “Is the driver taking you home?”
“I’m driving home myself,” he replied.
“You’re driving yourself home in this state?” She froze.
“I just donated a little blood. It’s not like I can’t move. I’m fine, aren’t I?” he said.
She could not help frowning. The man looked pale but was saying he was fine!
“I’m going to have to take a taxi home anyway, so I might as well send you home first. You’ve just gotten your blood drawn. You’ll easily get into an accident if you drive yourself,” she said worriedly.
He stared at her, and his thin lips said, “Don’t be too nice to me. If you’re too nice to me, you’ll give me ideas I shouldn’t have.” It would only cause her trouble when that happened.
“What?” Kyla looked blankly at the person before her. Her mind went blank, and her heart beat wildly for no reason.
“Nothing,” he muttered as he looked down gently. “I’ll just take a taxi home, then. Don’t worry. I won’t drive today.”
With that said, he raised his hand and hailed a taxi. Then, he opened the door and said to her, “Why don’t you get in first? I’ll get myself another taxi later.” He told the taxi driver the address of the store.
Kyla hesitated a little before getting into the car.
Martin Weiss closed the car door and watched the car leave. He smiled sadly when the taxi disappeared from his sight.
He knew she probably just did not want to owe him anything or get involved with him.
However, she had no idea how much restraint it took for him not to take her into his arms when she said things that sounded like she cared about him.
“Kyla, don’t be too nice to me if you’re never going to fall in love with me again…” he muttered.
He was scared he would get carried away if she was occasionally nice to him. He would also be reluctant to let her go. He might disregard everything and claim her for himself…
He did not want to make any more mistakes in front of her. He just wanted her to be alright. That would be enough!
Martin Weiss went back to the hospital and said to the doctor in charge. “I’ve told my wife about me storing my blood in the hospital, but I don’t want her to know anything else. I hope the hospital can keep my secret.”
The doctor froze and immediately said, “Yes, the hospital won’t say anything!”
Martin Weiss nodded and left the hospital again. He returned to the company. However, as soon he stepped into the company, he saw Jacqueline Bowman at the reception desk. She looked as if she was trying to find a way to get in.
When Jacqueline Bowman saw Martin Weiss, her face lit up. She immediately rushed forward and said, “Mr. Weiss, how are you? I came here to see you. Do you remember me? I’m Kyla’s friend. I helped Kyla out a lot in… uh… that place. We’ve also met at the Stephenson family’s full moon party.”
Martin Weiss glanced at her coldly. “What do you want?”
“Well…” Jacqueline Bowman made an embarrassed expression and said, “It’s something about Kyla.
I… I wish to speak to you alone.”
Martin Weiss’s eyes narrowed slightly. Then, he said, “We’ll talk about it in my office.” With that said, Martin Weiss turned and walked toward the elevator.
Jacqueline Bowman was delighted and quickly followed him.
When they arrived at Martin Weiss’s office, Jacqueline Bowman’s heart stirred. He was the president of a large corporation. His office was so large and imposing. Besides, the employees she met when she walked in with him all bowed to him. It made her feel as if they were bowing to her.
How wonderful it would be if she could have Kyla’s life and become Martin Weiss’s wife?! They were both ex-convicts, but why were their fates so different?
Jacqueline Bowman felt even more jealous at the thought of it.
She felt even more resentful when she recalled the day Kyla refused her request. She only wished to destroy Kyla.
In the office, Martin Weiss looked at Jacqueline Bowman coldly. “Go on. What do you have to say about Kyla?”
“Uh… Well, Mr. Weiss, you should know that Kyla has a child, right? The child was conceived before Kyla went to prison,” said Jacqueline Bowman said, not knowing Nelson was Martin Weiss’s son!
“You don’t know how much Kyla loves the father of this child. She could have had an abortion back then, but she wouldn’t do it. She endured everything those bullies did to her to keep her child. They cut off all her hair, made her crawl under their crotch, and even forced her to bark like a dog…”
Jacqueline Bowman told him about all the humiliation Kyla had to endure in prison. Her purpose was nothing more than to let Martin Weiss know how much Kyla loved the child’s father and was willing to endure it all just to give birth to this child.
Martin Weiss was so shocked to hear that!
He had gotten people to look into what had happened to Kyla in prison, but they could not find anything because it was so long ago. Their report to him just consisted of one sentence-‘Suffered a lot of difficulties in prison.’
He finally found out what had happened to her from Jacqueline Bowman’s mouth.
He made her go through all that!
“Kyla had a fever afterward. She refused to take medicine for it at first, for fear of it affecting the baby, so she endured it. But her fever got worse and she almost died. If she kept refusing to take the medicine, the baby she was carrying would probably die with her. That was when she finally took medicine.” Jacqueline Bowman continued, “You can see how much she loves the father of her child, Mr. Weiss. I’m only telling you this with good intentions. I hope you’ll take good care of Kyla. She has suffered so much. Even though she once loved the father of her eldest son so much, she’s with you now…”
Her voice paused, and the rest of her words seemed stuck in her throat.
Her eyes stared blankly at Martin Weiss. The man whose face was full of indifference just now seemed to be overwhelmed with pain.
The pain seemed endless. It was as if the man was already in hell.
