Meeting The One For Me

Chapter 24

Dr. Harrison’s voice was still laden with sighs even now.

He sighed and spoke, “The patient’s father got on his knees, begging me to save their daughter at any cost. He feared his wife wouldn’t survive if their daughter didn’t.

“Sadly, despite the surgery, the patient didn’t make it. Later, I heard that the patient’s mother also passed not long after her daughter. Truly a tragic tale.”

The recording stopped there.

Ian looked at Adam and said, “After our investigation, it appears that your mother has indeed passed away, just as your mother’s friend, Anne, said. Today, we’ve invited her to the show. We ask Anne to share Wanda’s story with us.”

The crew escorted an emotional Anne to the center of the stage. She sat down and recounted how she and Audrey’s birth mother escaped Sayeno Town with Audrey’s help.

She described how they had panicked in front of the police station, which had led to a fall and hospital admission, where Wanda bled to death.

The audience murmured with sympathy.

“I told them Wanda was gone, but they wouldn’t believe me!” Anne said anxiously. Just as she was about to reveal how the Yeomans family had used Audrey to threaten her, she stopped. She was afraid of implicating Audrey. She abruptly shut her mouth.

Donna began, “Anne, it’s not that we didn’t believe you. You and Adam’s mom were close back in Sayeno Town, and you left together. You must have her contact details! The child just wants to see his birth mother, sister, and grandfather.
