Chapter 80 - The Liar and The Bitch (3)

"Since you've decided already, then go for it." Ted sighed and looked at her daughter. What could he do? Her daughter and Alex had a chile already. Might as well let them be together for real. It would be much better that way so that Sky would be raised in a whole family, rather than bastard.

"Dad." April gulped, her eyes were getting teary.

Hearing her husband's answer, Annie teared up as well. She patted April's hand and gave it a tight squeeze.

April smiled to her mother and handed Sky to her. She got up and kneeled in front of her father.

"Dad. Thank you and I love you." April's tears were now falling down. She could never forget how much her father sacrificed everything in order to find her. She will never forget how much her father felt hurt when she didn't recognized him.

Seeing his daughter cry, Ted's heart moved. He sighed and wiped her tears away. April was his only daughter. The daughter that he doted a lot since birth. When he lost her before, honestly he didn't know think that she'd still survive. But he never gave up on looking for her.

"Silly child. Why are you crying?" Ted brushed some hair away from her face.

April pouted and finally broke down. Ted held April into his chest and patted her back. "It's okay. Father isn't mad anymore. As long as you're happy, me and your mother will always be here for you. If there comes a day that Alex doesn't want you anymore, our home will always be open for you. Just come back to us and we will take care of you till you get old." Ted wiped his tears secretly.

Annie chuckled but tears were falling down like rain on her face. Seeing everyone crying, Sky hugged his grandmother tightly. He too was affected by the mood and cried.

"Oh no, no. Dear don't cry." Annie held Sky tightly. Not knowing who to console first. Herself, her husband, her child or her grandson? Annie didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this moment.

"What did you say?" Alex stared at James. As soon as he landed down, James gave him bad news.

"Francesca is in the hospital. Apparently, she tried to commit suicide. She slit her wrist and she lost quite a lot of blood. Luckily, Beverly found her in time and sent her to the hospital. She needs blood transfusion." James sighed.

"Damn it. let's go." Alex went inside the car.

30 minutes or so after. Alex and James arrived in the hospital. Beverly welcomed them as soon as she seen them coming.

"What happened?! Why did she tried to commit suicide?!" Alex yelled at Beverly.

"Madam wasn't happy anymore since you brought up the divorce. Adding to the fact that recently, her father wasn't happy with her as well since both of you are divorcing. Mr. Russo kept insisting for her to fix your marriage but Madam didn't want to bother you anymore. She said that she'd rather see you happy than be unhappy with her.

Sir, I know I am crossing the line here but Madam still loves you. She keeps drinking everyday and she couldn't focus right on her work. She might've gotten cold to you over time, but that doesn't mean that she never loved you anymore.

Yesterday, her father and her got into a big fight. She finally broke down and decided to kill herself today. Luckily, I was able to caught her in time. Sir, I beg you! Save my boss." Beverly kneeled down, tears were in eyes. Her face was red and there were dark circles around her eyes.

"What happened to the blood reserves that we established for Madam and My Master?" James furrowed his brows. They shouldn't have a problem.

"As soon as the divorce was brought up, she sold everything." Beverly bowed her head down, she then secretly smiled.

"Damn it! James, tell the doctor that I will donate some blood." Alex sighed.

Call it fate, but him and his wife had the same rarest blood type. AB Negative. It was the reason how they met. His wife used to be so sickly in highschool and fainted due to lack of blood. She was anemic at that time. Luckily, he had the same blood type. The school informed him if he could help his co-schoolmate. He was kind and friendly, so of course he did. He rushed into the hospital where she was sent to and donated blood for her. Fate and History happened after that.

Over the years, both of them established some blood reserves. Just in case anything happens to them, they wouldn't be helpless.

Now that this came up, memories flooded into his mind. Their happy teenage life, their dating moments and their early marriage. Although he was firm in divorcing his wife, he still feel bad about hurting her. Now that she tried to commit suicide, he felt bad and guilty. He rubbed his forehead as he waited for the transfusion to be ready.
