Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 2072: Summer Hall Extra (274)

But if... if the paternity test comes back and the child isn’t his, how could Thomas Smith accept a woman who has cheated on him?

Her heart trembled fiercely, and suddenly she grabbed the doctor’s arm, saying:

"Doctor, can a paternity test be done on the child now?"

The doctor was taken aback and looked at Olivia Smith with a nuanced expression.

After all, who in their right mind would ask for a paternity test on a child without reason? Clearly, this woman had betrayed her husband, and now even she couldn’t tell if the child was her husband’s.

The doctor felt a hint of disdain but still answered truthfully:

"It can be done, but the child is still unstable. It’s best to wait a while."

Hearing this, Olivia Smith breathed a slight sigh of relief. As long as she was given a bit more time to adjust, there was still a chance she could turn things around. Yes, there had to be a chance.

Thomas Smith hadn’t waited outside for long before Olivia Smith was wheeled out of the emergency room.

The oxygen mask was off Olivia Smith’s face, but her complexion remained ashen. Thinking about how she might never have the chance to live the life of a wealthy wife and how Thomas could abandon her, her pale face retained a touch of authenticity. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Brother..."

She reached out from under the blanket, looking at Thomas with a hopeful expression, trying to hold his hand. However, Thomas didn’t move forward, he just followed alongside the gurney and said indifferently:

"Since the child is fine, just lie down and rest. I’ll get you something to eat."

With that, he turned and left.

"Brother, brother..."

Olivia Smith called out to Thomas several times from the gurney in a panicked tone, but got no response from him, her heart sinking to the bottom.

From the beginning, she had been pretending to be unconscious. The child was fine and healthy, with no need for hospitalization.

She lay there for half an hour, and seeing that Thomas hadn’t returned, fearing he might abandon her, she directly ran out of the hospital.

Just as she exited the emergency building, she saw Thomas coming in from outside, carrying a small bag with some food inside.

Her eyes instantly turned red, and in a choked voice, she looked at him, "Brother..."

"Why did you come out?"

Thomas looked at her, with a slight frown yet not much concern.

"It seems the child is fine, and you don’t need to be hospitalized."

Once again, Thomas spoke without waiting for Olivia to respond and headed back into the hospital, "I’ll handle your discharge paperwork."

"Brother..."

Olivia quickly stepped forward to grab Thomas’s hand, but he subtly avoided her touch.

With reddened eyes, Olivia looked at him, her voice choking:

"Brother, do you not want me anymore?"

Thomas’s footsteps paused for a moment, and he turned to look at her.

After all, she was a girl he once liked. Heartache was inevitable, but he still had some moral sense and couldn’t accept someone so ruthless, someone who would harm an innocent girl for riches.

No matter if that person was his sister or not, he couldn’t accept it.

"Yes."

Thomas didn’t soften or dodge the topic, answering directly and decisively.

Olivia was caught off guard by Thomas’s decisive answer, stunned for several seconds, unable to speak.

She originally thought if she continued pretending to be pitiful, even if Thomas really didn’t want her, he might hesitate a little. But she never expected Thomas to answer so straightforwardly.
