Chapter 664
Dawn hadn’t broken yet. Jennifer saw Donald in his office. While relieved, she couldn’t help but demand, “Why weren’t you home?
Donald said, “Pediatrics had an emergency, and my department head called me in for overtime.”
Jennifer thought, Pediatrics. Had he seen Mike and Teresa Her eyelids twitched, “Did he see Mike and Teresa?” she asked cautiously. “What Dre did you get here?”
Donald replied, “About three in the n
e morning.”
Jennifer figured out the timing. Donald probably hadn’t seen Teresa; Michael’s bed was under others‘ care, nothing to do with him,
Jennifer demanded, “If there was an emergency at the hospital, why didn’t you call me? Do you have any idea how frantic I was when I got home to find you gone, and you wouldn’t even pick up my calls?”
Faced with Jennifer’s barrage of questions, Donald replied flatly, “Forgot.”
“Forgot?” Jennifer couldn’t believe it. She moved closer to Donald and studied his face intently. “Is something bothering you?” Jennifer thought, “He’s
never been like this
“Nothing” Donald pressed a hand to his forehead, his eyes bloodshot from a sleepless night.
Before Jennifer came to find him, Donald had secretly sent hair samples of both Michael and his own to the hospital’s DNA testing lab without anyone
knowing
Donald thought, “All I can do now is wait for the results of Mike and I are truly related by blood, he will be Jonathan’s son. This time, without Jennifer knowing, I won’t be deceived again, the truth will come out!
Right now, all Donald wanted was an answer. He thought, “Why on earth would Jennifer do this? All these lles, time and again” Donald looked up, his gaze fixed intensely on Jennifer
“What on earth is wrong with you? Why are you staring at me like that?” Jennifer’s heart was pounding wildly in her chest. She thought, “Could he have found out about Mike? No. If he knew, he wouldn’t stay silent”
Donald frowned. “Jennifer, why do I suddenly feel like your lace looks a little different?”
“What?” Jennifer instinctively touched her face, confused. “How could that be? We’ve only been married for two months. How could I have changed already!”
Donald said, “I don’t know. It’s just, I feel like you’ve changed. And maybe it’s not just you, maybe I’ve changed too, haven’t I?” Jennifer’s heart
I
plummeted
Jennder asked, “Donald, what do you mean? Are you already tired of me, barely two months into our marriage? We’ve been through so much together
“From the moment we got to know each other, to me staying by your side after your car accident, dating, getting engaged, and finally getting married. Every step of our journey has been hard–won.”
“How could he say I’ve changed? Jennifer thought, I’ve already lost the support of my best friend and my sister. Donald is my only anchor now. If he even abandons me, what will I do?‘
Donald put a hand over his eyes, not wanting Jennifer to see his exhaustion or the tears welling up.
They had come a long way together. Donald courted Jennifer for a long time. He ewin transferred to another hospital for her, treating her like a precious goddess. He still clearly remembered the day she said she was leaving Nareigh his heart broke.
And came thateful car accident. When he protected her, his only thought was her safety. She stayed by his side, and when he finally woke up, she told him she wasn’t leaving after all.

Donald thought. The memory of our first kiss is still vivid in my mind. When Jennifer agreed to date ine, I was so thrilled that I made a Facebook p first in ages, announcing it to all my colleagues.
