Suddenly, the deep voice of a man was heard in the ward.

Frightened, Angeline turned to see Evander upon regaining her senses.

His facial features were still charming and defined despite his pale complexion. A thick layer of gauze was wrapped on his left arm, concealing his wound.

“Why are you here?”

An apologetic expression appeared on Angeline’s face when she saw him. “I was thinking of dropping by later to visit you. Thank you for saving us. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know if I would still be alive.”

Evander fell silent. His cold gaze fell on the unconscious child on the bed.

With a serious tone, he asked, “You’ve gone through so much trouble just to look for this child?”

Distress surfaced in Angeline’s eyes. “Yes. He’s about the same age as Floretta but was beaten up so badly. It’s tragic.”

Evander furrowed his brows as he gazed at the child’s injuries.

A tender look filled his eyes while he said softly, “He has beautiful features. His nose looks like yours.”

In actuality, Evander wasn’t happy about the child’s existence, for he knew the child would only widen the gap between him and Angeline.

However, as a father, he had some compassion and felt sorry for this pathetic child.

Hearing what Evander said, Angeline turned pale. “That doesn’t sound like something you would usually say.”

“Have you taken a DNA test?”

“Not yet.”

Angeline shook her head as she looked away and replied, “I haven’t gotten around to it yet. I would have to at least wait for the child to regain consciousness first.”

“You have Jonathan to make these decisions with you. You don’t have to tell me.”

All of a sudden, Evander’s tone turned cold and distant as he turned away from Angeline. It was as if they were strangers.

“I’m just here to remind you to make all the necessary preparations before making a decision. Don’t repeat your previous mistakes.”

“Okay, I understand.”
