Bianca shook her head and forced herself to not think about the mother whose name and face she did not know. That woman was a stranger to her.

After a while, her phone rang.-

The caller was Bianca's best friend, Nina Langdon.

Bianca picked up.

"Hi! It's been a long time since we video-called. Why are you trying to avoid me?" Nina complained into the phone. She rested her cheek on her hand dejectedly, saying, "Are you sure you wanna go to the UK, Bea? What if someone bullies you there? My fists don't reach that far.

"Also! I hear that guys mature early overseas, and loads of school dorms are co- ed! You gotta be really careful about that when you go there! Hey, do you understand what I'm getting at? Forget it, I'll just be open with you. If you really can't hold back when you see those foreign hotties! Remember to use protection!"

On her screen, Bianca could see that Nina was sitting in a small restaurant. It seemed like she had just ordered her food and was waiting for it to arrive.

On the wall of the restaurant behind Nina, there was a fairly large television

screen.

The TV was reporting some entertainment news with a very clear caption. It stated that a 56-year-old tycoon recently had a daughter! 2

However, nobody knew who the girl's mother was.

"Bea?

"Bianca! Are you even listening to me?"

Nina saw that Bianca had gone completely motionless on her screen, and her emotions were clearly out of whack too. Nina hastily shook her screen, saying," Bianca, can you hear me? What's the matter? Don't scare me!"

Bianca was quite sensitive right now. When she left the hospital, she swore an oath to never think about the child she had carried inside her. Still, how could that actually be possible? 1

That baby had half of her blood.

Bianca was going mad.

She was really going to lose her mind.

What good would harping on it do, though?

She had to stop thinking about it.

She hung up and washed her face with cold water.

That did nothing to calm her down.
