However, Naomi did indeed see the dissatisfaction on Ada’s face, which showed that what Ada said was true.
However, how could Niamh have gotten engaged to another man? Would there be such a good man who would like her despite her horrendous face?
Would there really be a man who fell in love with her so absurdly because of her eyes?
“What are you thinking?” Ada asked while staring at Naomi who had a look of loss on her face.
Naomi suddenly raised her head and expressed her displeasure. “I was just wondering… You’ve been talking to me for so long, but what exactly do you want me to do?”
She put on a cold attitude. “I don’t care who the person you like is. I just want to know why you came to me so late?”
As Naomi’s voice fell, Ada suddenly stepped on the brakes and stopped the car on the side of the road.
She turned her head and stared at Naomi a little angrily.
“Don’t you want to teach this person who’s pretending to be you a lesson? You’re Kendrick’s wife and a famous socialite in Glendale, am I right?”
“…” Naomi was stunned, then she stated her position, “Of course, I’ll teach this person a lesson. How dare she pretend to be me? I’ll make her life a living hell.”
“That’s right.” Ada was very satisfied with Naomi’s reaction. “I’m like you, I also want to teach this woman a lesson. So, let’s work together.”
Naomi originally wanted to deal with Niamh. Now that Kendrick had seen through her, someone suddenly appeared and told her she would cooperate with her to deal with Niamh. Of course, Naomi could not ask for anything better.
She agreed, “Okay, I’ll work with you.”
…
Niamh followed Carter back to the manor. She thought that Carter would do something to Kendrick tonight, but because Kendrick did not show up at Glendale Airport, nothing happened.
Niamh tossed and turned in bed all night. The next morning, she quietly went out to go to Adam’s place to continue receiving treatment.
Perhaps due to her early arrival, Cathy was the only one there when Niamh arrived.
Cathy was surprised to see Niamh, yet she still hosted her enthusiastically. “You can go and lie down inside first. Adam got a phone call and went to the hospital, but he told me what I should do when you get here.”
Niamh felt lucky. At least these friends were treating her sincerely.
Despite all the setbacks, she still felt warm and saw light when she was experiencing darkness.
After applying the gel, Niamh saw that her face was in better condition than before.
She also had confidence that in time, her face could be restored to the way it was before.
Cathy stood behind Niamh. While looking at the clean face in the mirror, she also felt happy for Niamh.
“Your face has recovered very well. It’s completely different from when I first saw you.”
Niamh smiled and turned around. “It’s all thanks to Adam. He really helped me a lot. I was only able to give birth to my son safely back then because of him.”
“Your son? Do you also have a son?” Cathy asked curiously.
While they were on the topic of children, Niamh’s face naturally showed a gratifying smile.
“I have two sons and a daughter.”
“You’re so amazing.” Cathy admired.
“You’re more amazing than me. You got a boy and a girl in just one go.” Niamh jokingly followed Cathy into the living room.
Niamh looked at the twins who were playing with each other. Their charm and the look in their eyes were similar to Felipe indeed.
It turned out that when Cathy was shot, she was already carrying Felipe’s children.
However, Cathy had no idea that her two children belonged to Felipe.
Niamh never thought about telling Cathy this fact anyway. After chatting with Cathy, Niamh left.
After Niamh left, Cathy looked at the opposite side of the road with disappointment in her eyes.
She recalled how Felipe would stand on the road opposite every day and wait until she appeared, but he never appeared again now.
From then on, she always dreamed of Felipe.
Cathy was confused, but as she thought about it, the cold autumn rain started falling from the sky before she knew it.
A cool breeze came over, and she tightened her coat to get ready to turn back to the house.
However, just as she turned around, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded from behind her.
Inexplicably, she felt that the footsteps sounded a bit familiar. When she was about to look back to see who it was, she heard a heavy thud next to her feet suddenly.
Cathy looked down and was surprised to see a blood-stained palm next to her feet.
“Ah!”
Cathy exclaimed in surprise.
Following the blood-stained palm, she saw a familiar face.
Felipe lay unconscious on the rainy ground, and his bloody fingers were weakly holding onto Cathy’s trousers.
“Ca-Cathy…”
“Cathy…”
Cathy repeated the word with Felipe, and after the last syllable, Felipe’s hand that was tightly holding her trousers also loosened.
After seeing Felipe suddenly losing consciousness in front of her, Cathy did not know why her heart seemed to ache so severely.
The rain of late autumn penetrated her skin with a bone-chilling coolness, but a scene appeared in her head vaguely.
It seemed to be raining cats and dogs as well. It had been at night when such a person fell in a pool of blood too. She had walked toward the injured man with an umbrella. She did not remember what happened afterward because the scene ended here.
“I saw him running here just now!”
“He must be nearby! Find him now!”
“Don’t let him run away again this time!”
Suddenly, she could hear some malicious words from a distance. Cathy suddenly raised her eyes and saw a few fierce-looking men who were dressed like thugs. They looked like they were looking for something along the street while holding weapons in their hands.
Cathy thought about something subconsciously. She lowered her head to look at Felipe who was lying at her feet. Without thinking too much, she bent over and pulled Felipe into the house.
“Mommy, what are you doing?”
“Why is this uncle sleeping here?”
The two innocent children were asking such innocent questions. They were not sensitive to blood, but they were just curious about the sleeping uncle lying here.
“Felipe must be nearby!”
“Split up and find him!”
The voices were getting closer, and Cathy’s heartbeat speeded up inexplicably. A layer of cold sweat started to appear on her forehead without her knowledge as well.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a figure approaching. She did not know where this force came from. Suddenly, she pulled Felipe into the house with all her strength.
Huff!
She fell to the ground and let out a long sigh of relief. She raised her eyes to see two men with scars on their faces walking by the gate. Cathy quickly sat up and closed the door.
Then, she looked at Felipe who was covered in blood. After calming herself down, Cathy pulled him into the room Adam worked in with all her might.
She exerted a lot of force before she successfully placed Felipe on the reclining chair.
She no longer remembered that in order to please Felipe, she had studied medicine and hypnotism according to his wishes. She had learned a lot of things that she had no intention of learning.
Even though she did not remember, when she looked at the wounds of different sizes and depths on Felipe’s body, she was still very skilled in treating Felipe’s wounds.
When she saw Felipe frowning unconsciously because of the pain, Cathy subconsciously made her movements lighter and softer.
After some time, she had cleaned up all the wounds on Felipe’s body.
She felt an inexplicable pain in her heart when she saw the bucket full of alcohol swabs used to stop the bleeding.
When she saw the melancholy between his eyebrows, Cathy could not help but stretch out her hand toward Felipe’s face.
Just when her fingertips were about to touch Felipe’s cheek, she paused.
“What am I doing? What’s the matter with me?” Cathy asked herself without knowing the reason and slowly lowered her head.
