CHAPTER 38: CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT: CHRISTY IS EVA.

Mason’s POV

"Mother please calm down" I begged my mother as she kept struggling to get out of my hands to rush into the operating room.

"Who did this to my daughter? She has been through so much already" She cried loudly when she finally stopped struggling.

"Mason, tell us everything from the beginning"My father said as he helped my mother to a seat.

"I met her two months ago and she had a lot of troubles. The family that raised her were using her to enrich their pockets. They made her...." I paused as I found it hard to say what she was forced to do.

"What did they make her do?!" My father questioned me angrily.

"They made her work in a strip club" I said with a low voice.

"Where are those monsters?!" He asked angrily.

"She got the man his mistress arrested and the woman is dead" I replied emotionlessly.

They were lucky to still be breathing and they should cherish it because it won’t be for long.

"How did she end up in the hospital?" My mother asked me with a frown.

I took in a sharp breath as I didn’t know how to tell them about her relationship with Kendrick.

They already don’t like the Black family and have warned me severally to stop being friends with Kendrick.

"She was in a relationship with Kendrick but Raymond wanted him to marry the Martinez daughter, so they made her life miserable" I summarized as I didn’t want to go into details.

"The Black Family again? Why is it always them?" My mom asked with an annoyed expression.

Our relationship with the Black family has been terrible for years but I never allowed it to affect my friendship with Kendrick.

"You bastard! Is this what you are talking about so calmly?" My father yelled at me while looking at his phone with an extremely furious expression.

My mother quickly went over to him to watch as well and her face immediately changed.

"They bullied her so badly, how could they be so heartless?" My mother asked amidst sobs.

"I want every trace of her wiped off the internet" my father ordered me and I immediately excused myself to call my subordinates.

"Brother" Kelvin, my younger brother, called me.

"Yes" I answered him.

"Why are you protecting him?" He asked me angrily.

"What are you talking about?" I asked him with a frown.

"I am talking about Kendrick, he is the one that caused the most hurt to our sister and you are still protecting him!" he replied angrily.

"He was also pushed to the wall and had no other choice" I said with a sigh while rubbing my forehead in frustration.

"Well, you better tell him to stay away from her, because I won’t hold back if I ever see him near her" He said furiously before storming away.

By the time I was done instructing my subordinates, the surgery had ended and the door of the operating room slowly opened.

Jasper walked out with several other doctors, they all looked tired and pale. Some used the wall as a support as they couldn’t stand firmly.

"How is she?" My mom asked him with an extremely nervous expression.

"The surgery went well and she will be moved to a room for more observation" Jasper said with a comforting smile.

"Thank you so much" My father said to him with a grateful expression and they all followed behind the nurses, as Christy was being taken to the assigned room.

The other doctors left as well but Kelvin refused to leave.

"I have something urgent to discuss with Jasper" I said to him before he reluctantly walked away.

Jasper led me to a quiet balcony with a solemn expression.

"How is she?" I asked him with a serious tone because I knew there was something he didn’t say in front of my family.

"The injury to her head is quite serious and there is a high chance of her having amnesia" he informed me and I nodded with a sigh.

It is best she forgets everything about the past and moves on without any regrets.

"Any other thing?" I asked him when I noticed his hesitant expression.

" She is pregnant" he said with a low voice and I froze.

Just when I thought she could finally let go of everything?.

"The baby seems pretty lucky, it survived despite the tragic accident," he added.

"I can’t make the decision, so we will wait until she wakes up and let her decide" I said with a sigh.

"The baby is Kendrick’s, right? He asked me and I nodded.

"Let’s just keep this to ourselves for now, I don’t want anyone else to know about it" I said to him before looking at the shadow behind the door.

I knew he didn’t leave earlier, he has always been stubborn.

"Kelvin, I don’t want our parents to hear a word about this" I said in the direction of the door and Jasper turned around with a surprised expression.

He slowly walked out from behind the door and stared at me expressionlessly.

" Shouldn’t we get rid of the baby now?" He asked with a frown.

I also had the same idea but letting her decide on what to do is the best approach.

"That’s not a decision for us to make," I replied to him with a sigh.

"What if she decides to keep the baby?" he asked me with a deep frown.

I didn’t reply to him, as I had also thought of this possible outcome.

"Let’s just forget about all that for now and focus on her getting better," Jasper said with an exhausted voice.

"The best thing to do now is to investigate the accident thoroughly. We need to know who was behind it as soon as possible to avoid future occurrences" I said to Kelvin with a serious expression.

"Just leave it to me, I will definitely get justice for my little sister," he said with a determined tone before walking away.

Kendrick’s POV

My legs felt stuck and I couldn’t move, I could only stare in the direction that Christy had run off in.

"Now that my daughter is pregnant, you have no choice but to marry her," Mr Martinez said angrily.

I glared at him and he immediately took a step back.

"Get rid of that thing" I said to Celeste and she looked extremely shocked.

Was she expecting me to dance and happily marry her because she was pregnant?.

"How can you say that without any remorse? He is your flesh and blood" She said with tears streaming down her face.

"Get rid of it and I don’t want to ever hear anything about it again" I said before hurrying out of the hall.

I need to find Christy as soon as possible, there is so much that I need to explain to her.

"Ken!" Gary called out to me and I turned to see him rushing towards me with an extremely anxious expression.

"Were you able to find her?" I asked him as soon as he got to me.

"She got into an accident and it looks really serious," he said with a frustrated sigh.

It took me a few seconds to process what I just heard.

Christy got into an accident?

"Ken let’s go" Gary said anxiously as he supported me to the car.

He drove towards the hospital and all through the drive, I couldn’t say anything as Christy’s face before she left the hall kept replaying in my head.

As soon as the car stopped in front of the hospital, I jumped out and made my way to the emergency unit.

"Mason, what happened?" I asked as soon as I saw him but he just stood in front of me without moving.

"Ken, I think you should leave first. I will call you later" he said to me emotionlessly.

Gary also joined us after parking, he looked confused by what was happening as well.

"I want to see Christy, she needs me right now" I said before attempting to walk ahead but he restrained me with his hands.

"What’s the matter with you?!" I asked him angrily as my patience has reached its limit.

"Gary, please take him away" he said to Gary with a tired expression.

"What is the meaning of this?" I asked him angrily and pushed him out of the way.

Before I could take a step forward, I felt a sharp pain on my face that made me stagger backwards.

"You bastard!" The person who punched me yelled angrily.

"Kelvin!" Mason yelled and quickly held his brother back.

"How dare he appear here?" Kelvin yelled while glaring angrily at me.

I couldn’t understand what was happening and just stared at him in confusion.

"You better stay away from my sister!" he yelled angrily and I was too stunned to react.

"What do you mean by your sister?" Gary asked Mason with a confused expression.

"Christy is my little sister, Eva" he replied with a slightly emotional tone.

I didn’t know how to react or what to say as I just stared at him in shock.
