A Love Trap

Chapter 884 Depends On Her

Before Jeremy could say anything, Andrew spoke once again, "I can't make a decision for Ash. This one really depends on her."

Jeremy wanted to respond, but Andrew didn't give him the chance. With his arms, he pushed his friend away.

In truth, Andrew had always wanted to do that, especially when he saw Ashley and Jeremy talking.

Although Jeremy and Ashley were now confirmed siblings, it was still unbearable for Andrew to allow Jeremy to spend too much time with Ashley.

If Jeremy wasn't Ashley's brother and they were just good friends, would Andrew have let him stay that long?

Of course, the answer was no.

Andrew would never let it happen.

It was actually very kind of him to let Jeremy stay until now.

When Jeremy was about to leave, he looked at Andrew in disbelief.

He didn't expect that Andrew would make him leave like that.

To make it worse, Andrew even pushed him away.

Outside the hospital, the assistant had been waiting for Jeremy. When she saw the man come out, she quickly walked up to him and asked, "Mr. Gu, how was it?"

When she noticed the expression on Jeremy's face, the assistant became confused.

Her boss was fine when he went in.

Why was he looking pale when he came out?

Jeremy replied, "It's fine. Well, let's go back to the office.

But keep an eye on them. Let me know if anything happens, okay?"

"Yes, boss."

They got in the car and were about to head for the company.

But after thinking twice, Jeremy said to the driver, "Let's drop by the other hospital first."

He had just come out of the hospital. Now, they was going to another hospital, so the assistant was a little perplexed.

However, the hospital that Jeremy just mentioned was the one where Belinda was admitted to. A few days earlier, she was so upset that she fainted and immediately needed hospital care.

Jeremy knew that Belinda did not want to see him now.

But he really needed to visit her, because

he wanted to know how she was doing.

Besides, he also wanted to share the good news with his mother.

When Jeremy reached the other hospital, his mother was in the ward by herself. She was facing the window and looking at the scenery outside. It was hard to tell what she was thinking at that moment.

Jeremy looked around, but he didn't see his father.

Looking back at his mother, Jeremy felt a little uncomfortable. Even just by sitting on the bed, Belinda looked much older than before.

Jeremy acknowledged that from the root of all this fiasco, until now, it was all his fault. He was responsible for making his parents believe that the wrong person was their daughter.

If he had just been more reliable, his parents would not be subjected to so much disappointment and pain.

Jeremy entered the ward and softly called, "Mother."

Belinda continued staring out of the window. She neither turned her head nor looked at Jeremy.

"Mother." Jeremy could only look at his mother who was ignoring him. It made him feel even worse. But more importantly, he was worried about her health.

After Angelina, the person they thought was Camelia, was supposedly found, Belinda's physical and health condition had become much better.

However, none of them had expected that something like this would happen afterwards.

As a result, Belinda's physical health condition had visibly deteriorated.

Jeremy walked over to Belinda's side, reached out, and held her hand. "Mother, it hurts me to see you like this. I know it's my fault. It was me who found the wrong person. For so long, it mad e you happy for nothing. You can hit me or scold me. But Mother, please don't scare me like this."

If Belinda had beat him or scolded him, Jeremy might have felt so much better.

But now, Belinda was just sitting quietly, doing nothing.

She wouldn't even talk to him or at the very least, look at him.

Seeing his mother in this state, Jeremy became extremely worried about her, especially her health.

Belinda pulled back her hand from Jeremy's and said, "Why should I hit or scold you?"

Jeremy opened his mouth to say something. But he only felt a bit overwhelmed, unable to say anything.

After a while, Jeremy adjusted his way of thinking. When he thought of Ashley, a smile instantly appeared on his face.

While looking at Belinda, he enthusiastically said, "Mother, I have a piece of good news. It's absolutely real this time!"

"What news are you talking about? Are you trying to tell me that Camelia has actually been found?"

It was not until this moment that Belinda turned her attention to Jeremy.

"Yes, Mother. I've actually found Camelia!"

Jeremy looked at Belinda with so much excitement.

However, Belinda did not seem ecstatic at all.

Perhaps, she didn't trust that her son had found the right person as he had done with Angelina.

"Mother, it's real this time. I've found Camelia."

Jeremy was a little alarmed when he noticed that Belinda refused to believe him.

He had found the true Camelia, but why couldn't his mother believe him?

Belinda turned his eyes into Jeremy's. Although her voice was faint, the tenderness in it could still be heard.

"I just found out that the woman you have taken back years before is not Camelia. And now, after only a few days, you're telling me that you've found the real Camelia this time?

Jeremy, even if you want to make me happy, you can't make a joke out of this."

"Mother, I'm not kidding. It was Andrew who told me about her. If you don't believe me, you must believe him, right?

When has he ever lied to anyone?

Also, look! What's this?"

Jeremy suddenly stretched out his arms. Then, two pendants on a necklace fell on Belinda's open palm.

Belinda looked at the two pendants in a daze.

No one knew those two pendants better than her.

Belinda gave Camelia one of the pendants when she was one month old. The other one, she gave to Jeremy when he was six months old.

Belinda reached out her trembling hand and took the pendant from Jeremy.

Looking at the abbreviations of Jeremy's name and Camelia's name on the pendants, she held the pieces very tightly in her hand.

"Where did you find it?"

"You'll have to believe me now, right?"

Jeremy breathed a sigh of relief when Belinda took the pendants.

He had thought of returning the pendant to Ashley when he went to see her today.

But after a series of dramatic events, Jeremy had forgotten about it. Even when he was with her just a few hours earlier, it didn't cross his mind to give the pendant back to Ashley.

Hence, he just took the piece with him.

He did not even expect that it could help him in this conversation with his mother.

Jeremy told his mother everything that Andrew had said to him, including all of the things about Ashley and the pendant that belonged to her.

Ashley wore the pendant all the time.

"Really? Where is she now? I want to see her." Immediately, Belinda lifted the quilt which was covering her legs. She was wanted leave the ward immediately.

"Mother, please calm down."

Jeremy had just come from the hospital where Ashley confined.

Since he had been driven out from there by Andrew, Jeremy thought that it wasn't the right time for Belinda to see Ashley. He tried to stop his mother.

"Who do you want to see?"

An old man's voice came from the door. It was Martin who was entering the ward.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

He frowned deeply at the sight of Belinda who had already gotten out of bed.

"Who allowed you to get out of the bed? Go back in there and lie down."

He thought that Belinda was not taking care of herself very well, so he could not help but be strict on her.
