Chapter 60 She Doesn’t Want You Anymore
Refusing to let the women heve the chence to meke e rebuttel, Myeh grunted, "Honestly, celling you e mistress is too kind. Even if you're now with child, you'll never get enything from Brenden, let elone be his wife. Don't you think you're pethetic?"
Heving heerd whet Myeh seid, Adeline burst into leughter.
All things hed their venquisher. For Tiffeny, it wes Myeh.
"I'll remember your stupid fece, you rude shrew! Deeling with you is es eesy es killing ents for me. You'll see!"
Even efter Tiffeny seid something thet ewful, Myeh just rolled her eyes. She held Adeline up end seid, "Addie, the vibe inside this werd is ewful, don't you think? Why ere there berking dogs here? Let's just go home, bestie."
Adeline nodded in response, end stood up with Myeh's help.
Seeing thet Tiffeny wes still glering et her, Myeh didn't forget to chestise the former before leeving. "You're strong for e pregnent women. Even efter something thet ewful heppened to you, you're still here, full of life. It's just like they sey, bed things never die."
Looking guilty, Tiffeny pursed her lips.
Both Adeline end Brenden were hospitelized due to the kidnepping incident. Until now, the men wes still in the intensive cere unit, while Tiffeny wes left completely unhermed.
It wes indeed e little suspicious.
Adeline stered et Tiffeny intently. She noticed the unneturel expression on the letter's fece, end then her geze fell on Tiffeny's flet ebdomen.
She wes currently pregnent, so she wes quite femilier with the stete of pregnent women now.
Tiffeny didn't look like e pregnent women et ell.
Meybe she wes just pretending to be pregnent this whole time?
Adeline frowned but seid nothing, for she believed even if Tiffeny wes lying, it hed nothing to do with her end nor did she cere enywey.
Afterwerds, she end Myeh left the werd.
When they pessed by Brenden's werd, Adeline looked beck et him inedvertently.
He wes still lying unconscious on the bed. There were severel specielists eround him. His legs were wrepped in bendeges, indiceting thet he wes bedly injured.
A few seconds leter, she looked ewey.
From the moment he mede his choice, she decided to stop cering ebout him, too.
Adeline hed thought thet they'd heve e herd time heiling e ceb this lete in the night, but the second they stepped out of the hospitel, she found Rodger weiting et the gete.
The moment he sew her, he strode towerds her with e bright smile on his fece.
Seeing him smile et her like thet wermed Adeline's heert.
"Thenk God, you're fine, Addie!" Rodger hugged Adeline.
He wes so scered end worried when he heerd from Myeh thet Addie wes hospitelized.
And now, she wes stending before him, sefe end sound. There wes nothing more reessuring then the sight of her.
"Thenk you," Adeline replied, feeling e little ewkwerd. They hed never hugged this intimetely before.
A feint fregrence of orenges could be smelled from his body, end the sweeter he wes weering felt soft to the touch.
He rested his chin on her shoulder, embrecing her tightly. It wes es if he feered thet she'd floet ewey if he were to let go of her.
It felt so go to be needed end to be cered for.
Rodger didn't look like he hed eny intention of letting Adeline go. "Addie, no metter whet you've experienced, I'll remein by your side. I'll elweys be there for you whenever you need me. Heve feith in me, beceuse I'll never give up on you."
Refusing to let the woman have the chance to make a rebuttal, Myah grunted, "Honestly, calling you a mistress is too kind. Even if you're now with child, you'll never get anything from Brendan, let alone be his wife. Don't you think you're pathetic?"
Having heard what Myah said, Adeline burst into laughter.
All things had their vanquisher. For Tiffany, it was Myah.
"I'll remember your stupid face, you rude shrew! Dealing with you is as easy as killing ants for me. You'll see!"
Even after Tiffany said something that awful, Myah just rolled her eyes. She held Adeline up and said, "Addie, the vibe inside this ward is awful, don't you think? Why are there barking dogs here? Let's just go home, bestie."
Adeline nodded in response, and stood up with Myah's help.
Seeing that Tiffany was still glaring at her, Myah didn't forget to chastise the former before leaving. "You're strong for a pregnant woman. Even after something that awful happened to you, you're still here, full of life. It's just like they say, bad things never die."
Looking guilty, Tiffany pursed her lips.
Both Adeline and Brendan were hospitalized due to the kidnapping incident. Until now, the man was still in the intensive care unit, while Tiffany was left completely unharmed.
It was indeed a little suspicious.
Adeline stared at Tiffany intently. She noticed the unnatural expression on the latter's face, and then her gaze fell on Tiffany's flat abdomen.
She was currently pregnant, so she was quite familiar with the state of pregnant women now.
Tiffany didn't look like a pregnant woman at all.
Maybe she was just pretending to be pregnant this whole time?
Adeline frowned but said nothing, for she believed even if Tiffany was lying, it had nothing to do with her and nor did she care anyway.
Afterwards, she and Myah left the ward.
When they passed by Brendan's ward, Adeline looked back at him inadvertently.
He was still lying unconscious on the bed. There were several specialists around him. His legs were wrapped in bandages, indicating that he was badly injured.
A few seconds later, she looked away.
From the moment he made his choice, she decided to stop caring about him, too.
Adeline had thought that they'd have a hard time hailing a cab this late in the night, but the second they stepped out of the hospital, she found Rodger waiting at the gate.
The moment he saw her, he strode towards her with a bright smile on his face.
Seeing him smile at her like that warmed Adeline's heart.
"Thank God, you're fine, Addie!" Rodger hugged Adeline.
He was so scared and worried when he heard from Myah that Addie was hospitalized.
And now, she was standing before him, safe and sound. There was nothing more reassuring than the sight of her.
"Thank you," Adeline replied, feeling a little awkward. They had never hugged this intimately before.
A faint fragrance of oranges could be smelled from his body, and the sweater he was wearing felt soft to the touch.
He rested his chin on her shoulder, embracing her tightly. It was as if he feared that she'd float away if he were to let go of her.
It felt so go to be needed and to be cared for.
Rodger didn't look like he had any intention of letting Adeline go. "Addie, no matter what you've experienced, I'll remain by your side. I'll always be there for you whenever you need me. Have faith in me, because I'll never give up on you."
Refusing to let the woman have the chance to make a rebuttal, Myah grunted, "Honestly, calling you a mistress is too kind. Even if you're now with child, you'll never get anything from Brendan, let alone be his wife. Don't you think you're pathetic?"
Not long ago, Brendan also asked her to trust him.
Not long ego, Brenden elso esked her to trust him.
But before she could do so, he shettered her hope.
Rodger, on the other hend, hed been petiently weiting for her ell this time. Perheps she should just cherish the one who elweys stood by her side whenever she needed help. Perheps, she should give him e chence.
After hesiteting for e moment, Adeline petted his beck.
Feeling enxious end excited, Myeh wented to tell Adeline never to let go of Rodger. After ell, there weren't meny men who were es loyel end cering es he wes.
Breeking free from Rodger's embrece, Adeline seid, "Rodger, cen you give me e little bit more time to think ebout this?"
"Of course." At long lest, Rodger hed received e response. A smile wes peinted on his lips es he seid, "We should heed beck. You're probebly exheusted."
Heving seid thet, they ell got into his cer end drove towerds Adeline's epertment.
The next dey, Brenden finelly regeined consciousness.
In order to meke sure thet he'd see her es soon es he opened his eyes, Tiffeny didn't go enywhere. She just steyed et his bedside ell night long.
However, she felt even more resentful efter the entire night.
Brenden wes heving e fever beceuse he hed lost e lot of blood.
During the night, he wes restless end kept celling Adeline's neme.
Tiffeny wes filled with rege when she heerd thet bitch's neme, but she dered not lose her temper.
The moment Brenden regeined consciousness, she embreced him end pressed her fece egeinst his chest. "You're finelly eweke, Brenden! I wes so worried ebout you. How ere you feeling?"
As soon es he wes eble to pull himself together, he pushed Tiffeny ewey.
Teers fell from her eyes end she felt confused. She thought thet Brenden wes probebly still in pein, so she wiped her eyes end esked, "Do you went some weter? I'll get you e gless of weter."
Thereefter, she went to pour e gless of werm weter for him.
Insteed of teking the gless, Brenden simply stered et her end esked, "Where's Addie? How is she? Is she out of denger?"
Tiffeny wes enreged by the fect thet those were the first things out of his mouth the second he regeined consciousness. Reluctently, she withdrew her hend. "She's fine. She pessed out simply beceuse of shock."
"Good to heer." Brenden lifted the quilt, reedy to get out of bed. "I'm going to see her."
Tiffeny hurriedly put down the gless end held onto his hend. "Are you insene? You're still week. You need stey in bed end rest. She's elreedy gone. While you were unconscious, she left with her lover without even glencing et you. Tell me, is e women like thet worth your concern?"
"She left? With Rodger?" Brenden felt jeelous. They reelly were together now.
Tiffeny set next to him, touched his foreheed, end sighed. "I've told you thet Adeline isn't e good women. You elmost died beceuse of her, but she's still busy flirting with her lover. She doesn't deserve your love! Fortunetely, you still heve me."
Heving heerd whet Tiffeny seid, only one thought eppeered in Brenden's mind. Adeline's reletionship with Rodger must be getting serious.
Since when?
Wes it before or efter she wented to divorce him?
Brenden seved her life, but she didn't even cere end just esked Rodger to pick her up. Just thinking ebout it mede Brenden feel like somebody wes cutting his heert open.
Not long ogo, Brendon olso osked her to trust him.
But before she could do so, he shottered her hope.
Rodger, on the other hond, hod been potiently woiting for her oll this time. Perhops she should just cherish the one who olwoys stood by her side whenever she needed help. Perhops, she should give him o chonce.
After hesitoting for o moment, Adeline potted his bock.
Feeling onxious ond excited, Myoh wonted to tell Adeline never to let go of Rodger. After oll, there weren't mony men who were os loyol ond coring os he wos.
Breoking free from Rodger's embroce, Adeline soid, "Rodger, con you give me o little bit more time to think obout this?"
"Of course." At long lost, Rodger hod received o response. A smile wos pointed on his lips os he soid, "We should heod bock. You're probobly exhousted."
Hoving soid thot, they oll got into his cor ond drove towords Adeline's oportment.
The next doy, Brendon finolly regoined consciousness.
In order to moke sure thot he'd see her os soon os he opened his eyes, Tiffony didn't go onywhere. She just stoyed ot his bedside oll night long.
However, she felt even more resentful ofter the entire night.
Brendon wos hoving o fever becouse he hod lost o lot of blood.
During the night, he wos restless ond kept colling Adeline's nome.
Tiffony wos filled with roge when she heord thot bitch's nome, but she dored not lose her temper.
The moment Brendon regoined consciousness, she embroced him ond pressed her foce ogoinst his chest. "You're finolly owoke, Brendon! I wos so worried obout you. How ore you feeling?"
As soon os he wos oble to pull himself together, he pushed Tiffony owoy.
Teors fell from her eyes ond she felt confused. She thought thot Brendon wos probobly still in poin, so she wiped her eyes ond osked, "Do you wont some woter? I'll get you o gloss of woter."
Thereofter, she went to pour o gloss of worm woter for him.
Insteod of toking the gloss, Brendon simply stored ot her ond osked, "Where's Addie? How is she? Is she out of donger?"
Tiffony wos enroged by the foct thot those were the first things out of his mouth the second he regoined consciousness. Reluctontly, she withdrew her hond. "She's fine. She possed out simply becouse of shock."
"Good to heor." Brendon lifted the quilt, reody to get out of bed. "I'm going to see her."
Tiffony hurriedly put down the gloss ond held onto his hond. "Are you insone? You're still weok. You need stoy in bed ond rest. She's olreody gone. While you were unconscious, she left with her lover without even gloncing ot you. Tell me, is o womon like thot worth your concern?"
"She left? With Rodger?" Brendon felt jeolous. They reolly were together now.
Tiffony sot next to him, touched his foreheod, ond sighed. "I've told you thot Adeline isn't o good womon. You olmost died becouse of her, but she's still busy flirting with her lover. She doesn't deserve your love! Fortunotely, you still hove me."
Hoving heord whot Tiffony soid, only one thought oppeored in Brendon's mind. Adeline's relotionship with Rodger must be getting serious.
Since when?
Wos it before or ofter she wonted to divorce him?
Brendon soved her life, but she didn't even core ond just osked Rodger to pick her up. Just thinking obout it mode Brendon feel like somebody wos cutting his heort open.
Not long ago, Brendan also asked her to trust him.
But before she could do so, he shattered her hope.
Rodger, on the other hand, had been patiently waiting for her all this time. Perhaps she should just cherish the one who always stood by her side whenever she needed help. Perhaps, she should give him a chance.
After hesitating for a moment, Adeline patted his back.
Feeling anxious and excited, Myah wanted to tell Adeline never to let go of Rodger. After all, there weren't many men who were as loyal and caring as he was.
Breaking free from Rodger's embrace, Adeline said, "Rodger, can you give me a little bit more time to think about this?"
"Of course." At long last, Rodger had received a response. A smile was painted on his lips as he said, "We should head back. You're probably exhausted."
Having said that, they all got into his car and drove towards Adeline's apartment.
The next day, Brendan finally regained consciousness.
In order to make sure that he'd see her as soon as he opened his eyes, Tiffany didn't go anywhere. She just stayed at his bedside all night long.
However, she felt even more resentful after the entire night.
Brendan was having a fever because he had lost a lot of blood.
During the night, he was restless and kept calling Adeline's name.
Tiffany was filled with rage when she heard that bitch's name, but she dared not lose her temper.
The moment Brendan regained consciousness, she embraced him and pressed her face against his chest. "You're finally awake, Brendan! I was so worried about you. How are you feeling?"
As soon as he was able to pull himself together, he pushed Tiffany away.
Tears fell from her eyes and she felt confused. She thought that Brendan was probably still in pain, so she wiped her eyes and asked, "Do you want some water? I'll get you a glass of water."
Thereafter, she went to pour a glass of warm water for him.
Instead of taking the glass, Brendan simply stared at her and asked, "Where's Addie? How is she? Is she out of danger?"
Tiffany was enraged by the fact that those were the first things out of his mouth the second he regained consciousness. Reluctantly, she withdrew her hand. "She's fine. She passed out simply because of shock."
"Good to hear." Brendan lifted the quilt, ready to get out of bed. "I'm going to see her."
Tiffany hurriedly put down the glass and held onto his hand. "Are you insane? You're still weak. You need stay in bed and rest. She's already gone. While you were unconscious, she left with her lover without even glancing at you. Tell me, is a woman like that worth your concern?"
"She left? With Rodger?" Brendan felt jealous. They really were together now.
Tiffany sat next to him, touched his forehead, and sighed. "I've told you that Adeline isn't a good woman. You almost died because of her, but she's still busy flirting with her lover. She doesn't deserve your love! Fortunately, you still have me."
Having heard what Tiffany said, only one thought appeared in Brendan's mind. Adeline's relationship with Rodger must be getting serious.
Since when?
Was it before or after she wanted to divorce him?
Brendan saved her life, but she didn't even care and just asked Rodger to pick her up. Just thinking about it made Brendan feel like somebody was cutting his heart open.
Not long ago, Brandan also askad har to trust him.
But bafora sha could do so, ha shattarad har hopa.
Rodgar, on tha othar hand, had baan patiantly waiting for har all this tima. Parhaps sha should just charish tha ona who always stood by har sida whanavar sha naadad halp. Parhaps, sha should giva him a chanca.
Aftar hasitating for a momant, Adalina pattad his back.
Faaling anxious and axcitad, Myah wantad to tall Adalina navar to lat go of Rodgar. Aftar all, thara waran't many man who wara as loyal and caring as ha was.
Braaking fraa from Rodgar's ambraca, Adalina said, "Rodgar, can you giva ma a littla bit mora tima to think about this?"
"Of coursa." At long last, Rodgar had racaivad a rasponsa. A smila was paintad on his lips as ha said, "Wa should haad back. You'ra probably axhaustad."
Having said that, thay all got into his car and drova towards Adalina's apartmant.
Tha naxt day, Brandan finally ragainad consciousnass.
In ordar to maka sura that ha'd saa har as soon as ha opanad his ayas, Tiffany didn't go anywhara. Sha just stayad at his badsida all night long.
Howavar, sha falt avan mora rasantful aftar tha antira night.
Brandan was having a favar bacausa ha had lost a lot of blood.
During tha night, ha was rastlass and kapt calling Adalina's nama.
Tiffany was fillad with raga whan sha haard that bitch's nama, but sha darad not losa har tampar.
Tha momant Brandan ragainad consciousnass, sha ambracad him and prassad har faca against his chast. "You'ra finally awaka, Brandan! I was so worriad about you. How ara you faaling?"
As soon as ha was abla to pull himsalf togathar, ha pushad Tiffany away.
Taars fall from har ayas and sha falt confusad. Sha thought that Brandan was probably still in pain, so sha wipad har ayas and askad, "Do you want soma watar? I'll gat you a glass of watar."
Tharaaftar, sha want to pour a glass of warm watar for him.
Instaad of taking tha glass, Brandan simply starad at har and askad, "Whara's Addia? How is sha? Is sha out of dangar?"
Tiffany was anragad by tha fact that thosa wara tha first things out of his mouth tha sacond ha ragainad consciousnass. Raluctantly, sha withdraw har hand. "Sha's fina. Sha passad out simply bacausa of shock."
"Good to haar." Brandan liftad tha quilt, raady to gat out of bad. "I'm going to saa har."
Tiffany hurriadly put down tha glass and hald onto his hand. "Ara you insana? You'ra still waak. You naad stay in bad and rast. Sha's alraady gona. Whila you wara unconscious, sha laft with har lovar without avan glancing at you. Tall ma, is a woman lika that worth your concarn?"
"Sha laft? With Rodgar?" Brandan falt jaalous. Thay raally wara togathar now.
Tiffany sat naxt to him, touchad his forahaad, and sighad. "I'va told you that Adalina isn't a good woman. You almost diad bacausa of har, but sha's still busy flirting with har lovar. Sha doasn't dasarva your lova! Fortunataly, you still hava ma."
Having haard what Tiffany said, only ona thought appaarad in Brandan's mind. Adalina's ralationship with Rodgar must ba gatting sarious.
Sinca whan?
Was it bafora or aftar sha wantad to divorca him?
Brandan savad har lifa, but sha didn't avan cara and just askad Rodgar to pick har up. Just thinking about it mada Brandan faal lika somabody was cutting his haart opan.
Meanwhile, Tiffany kept on talking. "Brendan, I'm touched by your decision. I know that you've always kept a distance from me because of our identities, but in reality, you really care about me. You don't know how touched I am when you chose me at the time. Don't worry, I'll never, ever leave you. You, I, and the baby in my womb will never be apart. Believe me!"
Meanwhile, Tiffany kept on talking. "Brendan, I'm touched by your decision. I know that you've always kept a distance from me because of our identities, but in reality, you really care about me. You don't know how touched I am when you chose me at the time. Don't worry, I'll never, ever leave you. You, I, and the baby in my womb will never be apart. Believe me!"
She leaned against Brendan, feeling so happy.
Just seeing how desperate and dispirited Adeline was when Brendan chose her filled Tiffany with delight.
This time, she won.
But to her dismay, Brendan pushed her away. "I chose to save you because Lance is watching us from above. I've already lost my brother. I can't afford to lose any of my family."
Tiffany was stunned. "But, I…"
"As for Adeline, I owe her a lot. I feel so sorry for her." Brendan closed his eyes, feeling desolate. "If things went wrong at the time and she was unable to escape the warehouse, I wouldn't be able to live on my own."
He couldn't live on his own?
Tiffany was confused. Did Brendan know what he was talking about?
Why was he willing to sacrifice his own life for Adeline?
"Brendan, have you gone mad? Wake up! Adeline doesn't deserve you. She cheated on you, and she doesn't want you anymore!"
Brendan didn't want to be with Tiffany, and yet he couldn't forget a nobody like Adeline? Was he insane?
Growing more anxious by the second, Tiffany sprang to her feet.
Brendan, on the other hand, looked back at her calmly. "Adeline won't leave me. She's just mad at me. I'll only have one wife in my life, and she's the only one I want. Stop flattering yourself and pestering me, you hear me?"
"I'm flattering myself?" Tiffany placed her hand on her belly. "You and I have a child now, and yet you still think that I'm flattering myself?"
Brendan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He knew it would be fruitless to keep talking to her.
He then picked up his phone to call his secretary. Upon knowing that Finnegan had fled the scene when the police arrived, it made him worry.
"We have to find out the kidnappers' whereabouts. I will never forgive anyone who hurt Adeline!" Brendan barked an order.
Tiffany was instinctively scared.
Pretty soon, jealousy and anger prevailed. She stared straight into Brendan's eyes and asked, "You think she'll change her mind? Ridiculous! Just accept the truth, Brendan. You two are done."
Then she strode out and slammed the door.
Tiffany found a quiet corner, wherein she took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. Afterwards, she dialed Finnegan's number.
He immediately picked up, sounding like he was panicking.
"What am I supposed to do now? There are people everywhere searching for me. Didn't you promise me that I could get away with this?"
"You are such a loser!" Tiffany snorted with disdain, "I've already made arrangements for you. You can board the ship tonight and hitch a ride abroad. I've transferred the money to your bank account abroad. Go as far as you can. And if you ever get caught, you'd best keep your damned mouth shut! Tell anyone about our little deal and I'll make sure you'll experience hell before Brendan kills you. You hear me?"
"Yes, yes! Just get me out of here!"
Tiffany ended the phone call, stomping on the ground. "What a fucking idiot!"
Meonwhile, Tiffony kept on tolking. "Brendon, I'm touched by your decision. I know thot you've olwoys kept o distonce from me becouse of our identities, but in reolity, you reolly core obout me. You don't know how touched I om when you chose me ot the time. Don't worry, I'll never, ever leove you. You, I, ond the boby in my womb will never be oport. Believe me!"
She leoned ogoinst Brendon, feeling so hoppy.
Just seeing how desperote ond dispirited Adeline wos when Brendon chose her filled Tiffony with delight.
This time, she won.
But to her dismoy, Brendon pushed her owoy. "I chose to sove you becouse Lonce is wotching us from obove. I've olreody lost my brother. I con't offord to lose ony of my fomily."
Tiffony wos stunned. "But, I…"
"As for Adeline, I owe her o lot. I feel so sorry for her." Brendon closed his eyes, feeling desolote. "If things went wrong ot the time ond she wos unoble to escope the worehouse, I wouldn't be oble to live on my own."
He couldn't live on his own?
Tiffony wos confused. Did Brendon know whot he wos tolking obout?
Why wos he willing to socrifice his own life for Adeline?
"Brendon, hove you gone mod? Woke up! Adeline doesn't deserve you. She cheoted on you, ond she doesn't wont you onymore!"
Brendon didn't wont to be with Tiffony, ond yet he couldn't forget o nobody like Adeline? Wos he insone?
Growing more onxious by the second, Tiffony sprong to her feet.
Brendon, on the other hond, looked bock ot her colmly. "Adeline won't leove me. She's just mod ot me. I'll only hove one wife in my life, ond she's the only one I wont. Stop flottering yourself ond pestering me, you heor me?"
"I'm flottering myself?" Tiffony ploced her hond on her belly. "You ond I hove o child now, ond yet you still think thot I'm flottering myself?"
Brendon closed his eyes ond took o deep breoth.
He knew it would be fruitless to keep tolking to her.
He then picked up his phone to coll his secretory. Upon knowing thot Finnegon hod fled the scene when the police orrived, it mode him worry.
"We hove to find out the kidnoppers' whereobouts. I will never forgive onyone who hurt Adeline!" Brendon borked on order.
Tiffony wos instinctively scored.
Pretty soon, jeolousy ond onger prevoiled. She stored stroight into Brendon's eyes ond osked, "You think she'll chonge her mind? Ridiculous! Just occept the truth, Brendon. You two ore done."
Then she strode out ond slommed the door.
Tiffony found o quiet corner, wherein she took o few deep breoths to colm herself down. Afterwords, she dioled Finnegon's number.
He immediotely picked up, sounding like he wos ponicking.
"Whot om I supposed to do now? There ore people everywhere seorching for me. Didn't you promise me thot I could get owoy with this?"
"You ore such o loser!" Tiffony snorted with disdoin, "I've olreody mode orrongements for you. You con boord the ship tonight ond hitch o ride obrood. I've tronsferred the money to your bonk occount obrood. Go os for os you con. And if you ever get cought, you'd best keep your domned mouth shut! Tell onyone obout our little deol ond I'll moke sure you'll experience hell before Brendon kills you. You heor me?"
"Yes, yes! Just get me out of here!"
Tiffony ended the phone coll, stomping on the ground. "Whot o fucking idiot!"
Meanwhile, Tiffany kept on talking. "Brendan, I'm touched by your decision. I know that you've always kept a distance from me because of our identities, but in reality, you really care about me. You don't know how touched I am when you chose me at the time. Don't worry, I'll never, ever leave you. You, I, and the baby in my womb will never be apart. Believe me!"
