"I'm really sorry." Seeing the coffee spilled on Bethany, Karter made an apology hurriedly.
"It's okay." Bethany looked down at her dress before saying, "I have to go to the washroom."
With that, Bethany went to the washroom and simply wiped the stained part. When she returned, Karter
apologized again, saying, "Bethany, I do advise you to think twice. It only does both of you good if you
leave him now. Call me if you come around. The emotional damages are no biggie."
Emotional damages? Even if Karter was not Raymond's biological father, he really went out to drive her
away.
"I'm afraid I'll let you down." Bethany took the file bag and uttered, "Mr. Shepard, I still have something
to do, so I have to leave now."
Karter remained silent.
After Bethany went out, Karter instantly looked cold. He clutched the coffee cup so tightly as if to crush
it!
After returning home, Bethany went into the study. She opened the file bag and read the medical
records very carefully; the records really surprised her.
At that time, the bullet almost pierced Raymond's heart. Besides, he had dozens of injuries all over his
body. It was indeed a miracle for him to survive.
She initially hated his guts. Now that she read the records, she got to know that it was because of the
sequelae of the injury that he suffered physically and mentally. He was actually quite pitiable and
honorable for he had been injured in a military operation.
"Raymond... How to pronounce the surname?" Sunk in thoughts, Bethany suddenly found a kid next to
her. Shayla pointed at the words on the file bag and read them one by one.
"Zavala," said Damion before Bethany could open her mouth.
Why was Beth reading his daddy's medical records?
"Isn't this the sc*mbag who slept with Beth but didn't want to be responsible for that?" Shayla said
angrily.
Hearing that, Bethany was flabbergasted. She swiftly patted her little head and said, "You naughty girl,
what are you talking about? Since when did I sleep with him?"
"The night you didn't come back. I called you, but it was that guy who answered it, and then he said..."
"He said that Beth fell asleep in his car, not that he slept with her. Shayla, you misunderstood his
words. He is not a sc*mbag." Damion hurriedly explained for Raymond.
"Huh? Is it? But the last time I went to him, he didn't deny it..."
"What on earth have you two done behind my back?" Bethany had no idea about what they said!
"It's for your own good. You work so hard to provide for us. I just want to find a reliable rich, handsome
man to share your burdens," Shayla murmured. Noticing Bethany's gloomy face, she immediately
slipped away, saying, "Beth, I'll leave you be. I gotta study now."
After Shayla ran out, Damion asked curiously, "Beth, why are you reading his medical records?"
"I am his private doctor now, so I need to know more about his physical condition."
His private doctor? That meant the two of them could see each other often!
"Beth, I think there must be some misunderstanding between you two. Raymond Zavala is actually very
nice. Although he is usually harsh, he is patient with people he likes."
Like him, he had dual personality attacks mostly at night. Even if Raymond's physical condition was not
good, he would patiently keep him company the whole night. Damion was well aware of that.
"Hmm?" Bethany was stunned for a moment, saying, "Tyrone, do you know him that well? Have you
ever seen him?"
"No..." Damion suddenly felt guilty and uttered, "But I feel it that way. Beth, can you really be with him?
I want him to be my daddy. Please!"
The real Tyrone knew how to act like a spoiled child, so he should also learn to do it. It would be
awesome if the two of them could be together for real.
"Tyrone Hamilton, what's wrong with you lately? You're like a different person."
"Am I?" Damion could only play dumb as he said, "I'm with Shayla. You have to work so hard, and I feel
sorry for you. Raymond used to be a soldier, and he has been engaged in the business world after
retirement from the military and became a successful businessman. That shows he is really capable
and reliable. So, you two might as well stay together."
Eh?
How on earth did Raymond win these two naughty kids over? Both of them even put in a good word for
him to such an extent.
"Beth, just take it into account." Damion appeared very humble.
Bethany did not give any response to this. Then, something occurred to her, and she hurriedly said, "By
the way, Tyrone, don't you claim to be a master hacker? Now Mommy needs your help with
something."
A master hacker?
Was Tyrone even a master hacker? Damion knew a little bit about hacking, but only a little bit indeed.
Would his identity be exposed?
"I have a portrait here. I don't care what methods you'll use, help me find out the person on it."
Bethany was now basically sure that Mrs. Gina was a fake name. However, as long as she could find Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
out Ms. Gina's true identity through the portrait, things would be much easier.
Damion looked diffident and jittery. He had psyched himself up in case he would expose his true
identity, but expectedly...
"Eh? Why can't I find it? I did take it with me." Bethany fished through all her pockets and bag, but she
was on a wild goose chase. What was going on? Did she lose it?
"Beth, since you can't find it, we can talk about it some other time." Damion pretended to yawn. "I'm
sleepy. I gotta go to bed now. Beth, you should sleep early, too!"
With that, Damion hurriedly slipped away. After getting out, he still felt so scared that he took a deep
breath.
Bethany just couldn't find the portrait no matter how. It seemed that she really lost it. How unlucky! She
had to have someone to draw another.
At the end of the day, Bethany gave up and continued to read Raymond's medical records, but when
she felt she was only halfway through it, no records came after it.
What was going on?
"Morgan, why did you only give me half of Raymond's medical records yesterday?" Bethany called
Morgan first thing the next morning.
"How could that be? No one has ever touched Mr. Zavala's medical records all along." Morgan was
also surprised to hear what Bethany said.
That was really strange. Could it be...
No way, Karter was an elder after all. How could he steal half of Raymond's medical records? It made
no sense to her.
It seemed that something had gone wrong before, so the other half was gone.
"What shall we do if the other half is missing? Do you want me to go to the hospital again and get the
original medical records?" Morgan asked hurriedly.
"No, it's enough for me to know about his illness with the first half I have. Morgan, you don't need to
take the trouble to do it."
After hanging up, Bethany began to make physical recuperation plans for Raymond since Mr. Hoover
gave her a holiday; also, she had nothing better to do at home anyway.
Bethany spent the whole day on the plans and finally got it done. Then, she went to the Zavala Group
with the plans.
