"Right, Ms. Mendoza donated some blood to a woman who urgently needed a blood transfusion due to a car accident."
"Why was she in K city that day?"
Collin shook his head, "We can't find out where Ms. Mendoza was going that day, but Balfour also donated blood at the K city hospital to the car accident victim. Also, Balfour made an appointment for an abortion for Ms. Mendoza at Central Maternity Hospital in Greenhaven, scheduled for today."
Theo asked, "Why would Balfour schedule an abortion for her?"
Collin said seriously, "Mr. Blanchet, Balfour really cares for his sister. He may think that the baby in Ms. Mendoza's belly is related to you, so..."
Theo was taken aback, his eyes narrowed as he realized something important, "Check immediately if the pregnancy test results from the hospital where I took Ellinor for a check-up have been tampered with by the Howard family!"
Collin also realized, "Okay, I'll check right away!"
With that, Collin hurriedly left.
Recalling Ellinor's shocked and bewildered expression when she saw the pregnancy test results, Theo set down his coffee, got up, grabbed his coat and quickly walked out of the CEO's office.
The secretary at the door stood up respectfully and asked, "Mr. Blanchet, where are you going? The meeting later..."
"Cancel it!"
Theo said coldly, as he quickly stepped into the elevator, looking tense.
...
Central Maternity Hospital.
Ellinor followed Quinton to the door of the operating room that Mr. Howard had specially arranged for her.
Balfour did not show up, but Patricia was sitting on a waiting chair by the door.
Patricia laughed, "Of course I've won! Once you've completely lost the baby in your belly, you won't have any value for Theo to cling onto!"
The pregnancy test results from the day Theo took her to the hospital for a check-up must have been tampered with by Patricia.
To win Theo's heart, Patricia had done such a thing!
Patricia was Xenia's daughter!
Xenia was the one who left her mother nowhere to go, forced to leave the Howard family, and then replaced her mother as her 'good' friend!
One could imagine the amount of scheming her mother must have endured from Xenia.
Her mother was the apple of her biological parents' eye. She was naive and kind-hearted, never experiencing the wickedness of human nature. She must have fallen into Xenia's trap...
