Tom Parker looked at Veronica Parker with relief and emotion. “I didn’t expect you to think about me so much. Dad is very happy.”
“As long as your heart is on my side, I will help you. You’re my real father, right?” Veronica asked him for assurance.
“Yes, nothing in the world can destroy our father-daughter relationship!” Tom said, pushing his glasses.
Veronica glanced quietly at Tom and chewed her food slowly.
When they were almost finished eating, Veronica’s cell phone rang.
She picked up and answered. He didn’t know what the other person said, but Tom just heard Veronica, “Well, you come and look for me. I’ll wait for you in the restaurant.” She hung up after saying the address of the restaurant and then told Tom, “You can go ahead now. I still have an appointment.”
“Well, I can wait. I’ll go back to the office first. The account had already been settled. ” Tom stood up. Doubted that he will leave the restaurant, Veronica’s phone colluded with Lucy Underwood’s messages which she deliberately made for Tom to see.
Veronica did this so she can stay and get the fork that Tom used.
If Tom was here, she wouldn’t be able to take it. She would have to walk out and come back together. But she’s afraid that the waiter might have taken away the cutlery by the time she gets back.
As soon as Tom left, Veronica took the fork that he used and hurried out.
She went straight to the hospital.
She was in a hurry and brought the stuffed red envelope to the doctor saying, “I hope they can hurry up.”
This is more urgent than the maternity test for her and Chloe Bowen!
Veronica just sat in the hospital and waited.
After waiting for three hours, the report came out!
When the report reached Veronica and saw the result, her hand trembled suddenly.
She wanted to ask the doctor, “Is this result true? Was there a mistake?
But how could the doctor be wrong?”
As for the result, she was really not related to Tom Parker!
Veronica was cold from head to foot.
Earlier that morning, while working, she still thought maybe she guessed wrong that Tom Parker is not her real father. Was it possible that she just popped out of a stone?
But the results now told her that her suspicion was correct.
Veronica was bewildered by her background and sat feebly in the hallway seat, staring at the report in her hand in a daze.
With mixed feelings and grievances.
Was it because she was not Tom Parker’s daughter that she was beaten by him when she was young?
“I’m not their own child anyway, how would I fight that and not be distressed, right?”
She was not a granddaughter of her grandma and her grandma didn’t know. If her grandma was still alive and found out that her beloved granddaughter wasn’t blood-related, not a real Parker, she will definitely be disappointed.
Hatred sprang up in Veronica’s heart.
When she was young, she never realized what kinship was at home in the country.
“Mother is not my real mother. Father was not my real father.” None of them turned out to be her biological parents. What could be more outrageous than that?
She didn’t even know why they’re keeping her. Wasn’t it better if they just threw her directly into the orphanage rather than keep her?
Tom knew full well that she was not her own daughter and never told her! He not only abused her, but he also used her as she grew up.
“It was disgusting!”
Veronica sat there, crying angrily, tears falling one by one, “Whose child am I then? Where are my real parents? Why didn’t they get me?”
A kind-hearted old man saw Veronica crying so bitterly and asked, “What’s the matter, child?”
“Thank you for asking, but I’m fine,” Veronica answered and wiped the damp on her face.
The old man looked at the paper in Veronica’s hand with his presbyopia. He thought he knew what was going on so, he asked, “Is it a terminal illness?”
Veronica stared at the old man.
Seeing the fearful look in her eyes, the old man sighed, “It’s a pity that she is young.”
With that, he shook his head and walked away with a bent body.
Veronica looked dull, “Aren’t you here to comfort me? Obviously not.”
Veronica sat there for a long time, calming down.
Thinking about why Tom would do such a thing.
When he got married for the first time, he had a daughter with Chloe but she was not his own daughter.
When he got married for the second time, since Sarah had a son and a daughter, she didn’t have a child with him.
“But what man doesn’t want to have children of his own?
Sarah loves Tom so much, but why didn’t she want to give him a baby?
For a suspicious and sick woman like Sarah, isn’t it more likely to tie the heart of her husband by giving birth to his child?” Veronica was bewildered.
As far as Sarah North knows, Tom Parker didn’t have any illegitimate children.
“An illegitimate child, maybe?” Veronica Parker suddenly thought of the landlady!
“When I checked during that time, the landlady had been raised by Tom for a year!
Sarah hadn’t found out about this situation for a year. I had to say that Tom was quite talented in this aspect of sneaking around.”
However, after negotiating with the landlady, all contact information was destroyed.
But Veronica did not necessarily contact the landlady to check whether Tom is fertile or not.
If Tom can hide it, it’s not easy to find out at all!
Veronica guessed that Chloe Bowen didn’t know. “If I had known and knowing Chloe’s mouth, I would have told her long ago!
So did, Sarah know?
It’s time to find out why Sarah didn’t give Tom a baby.
Probably, Tom told Sarah that he didn’t want to have children and he’ll just treat her children as if they were his own. But Sarah actively pursued that. Tom definitely had a way to have his children before it was discovered that he can’t have children.
Veronica wanted to give it a try and find out. She had nothing to lose!
As soon as she took her phone and was about to register a hidden ID online to publicize that Tom Parker was infertile, the screen flashed and a call came in.
Nick Cage’s cell phone number!
Veronica Parker raised her wrist and looked at her wristwatch. At this point, she should have been on the TV station.
Cleared her throat, getting ready to lie, and answered. “What are you doing?
What are you up to?” Nick’s low voice came with a frightening penetration.
“What else can I do? Be busy with things.” Veronica picked up her backpack, got up, and walked outside the hospital.
“In the office?”, Nick pried.
“That’s right! I’m watching the video shot. “Veronica said pursed her lips.
“I’m in your office.”
Veronica took a step, bit her lip, and kicked the wall in chagrin! This way of exposing her lies was really abhorrent and guilty! “I knew I shouldn’t have answered his phone call! Anyway, it’s the first time I wouldn’t answer your call! I don’t care about it one more time! But if I didn’t answer the phone, went back to the TV station and bump into Nick Cage in the office, then that’s really scary! She couldn’t help be exasperated. “Why did you ask me when you knew I wasn’t in the office?”
“Let me ask you again, where are you?
I will only ask you this once.”
Nick was silent for a few seconds as if to endure, “Was I too kind to you last night that you learned to lie to me now?”
It’s not the first time you lied anyway.”
“All right. I’m just outside, at the hospital.” Veronica said the location directly. Otherwise, she did not doubt that Nick would know her exact location in the next second!
“Not feeling well?” Nick’s voice was taut without being aware of it.
“No, I needed a certificate for an advertising shoot.” Veronica thought, “Why would they need a health certificate? He might think I’m insane!”
“Why can’t you talk about applying for a health certificate?” Nick’s voice sank.
“I was afraid you wouldn’t be happy because I didn’t look for Tracy Dora” Veronica pointed out.
Talk about Nick’s temper.
Indeed, health is something he can know more clearly when looking for Tracy Dora.
Find another hospital, he can’t know in the first place!
“What’s the result?” Nick asked.
“It’s fine!” lied Veronica.
“Come back now.” After Nick commanded her, he hung up the phone directly.
Veronica returned to the TV station. Just out of the elevator, Lucy Underwood ran over in a panic, gesturing, and not saying a word.
“Nick Cage is in my office?” Veronica said it for her.
“Yes!” Lucy finally made a sound! “I saw him go in with my own eyes!”
