Chapter 6
Maybe God took pity on her. In the end, Tamara survived.
Darwin and his men dragged the sea for a whole day and night before they finally pulled her out.
In her hazy consciousness, she vaguely heard someone speaking by her
ear.
“She’s just a stand–in, Mr. Xavier. Why get so worked up? You only approached her because of her face. Now that Ms. Rivera’s back, why should you care if she lives or dies?”
Darwin’s voice followed, cold and sharp.
“You want her dead so bad–what, still bitter about losing your hand. during that act? If that’s the case, don’t you think you’re blaming the wrong person?
“I’m the one who crippled your hand. If you need to hate someone, hate me. Isn’t that right?”
The man sounded terrified.
“I wouldn’t dare, Mr. Xavier! You went all in to sell the act back then. Even used self–sacrifice. What’s a hand compared to that?
“And wasn’t it you who told the guys to push her mom to jump off the building? Or when you leaked her location during that cargo run? If you still care about Ms. Saunders, what if she finds out about all this one. day…”
Chapter 6
Before he could finish, Darwin cut him off coldly.
“As long as you keep your mouth shut, she’ll never know. Yes, I tricked her. So what? Once Bella leaves, I’ll spend my whole life with her.
“But if she ever finds out… I’ll kill you first.”
This time, the man completely panicked. With a loud thud, he fell to his knees, resolutely vowing to carry this secret to his grave.
Hearing all this, Tamara slipped back into unconsciousness.
When she woke up, it was two days later.
Groggy and weak, her mind involuntarily replayed everything she heard before passing out.
Her eyes instantly turned cold.
An overwhelming hatred threatened to consume her.
So what she thought was salvation… was nothing but a complete lie.
Darwin never once told her the truth.
From the moment they met, she’d been nothing but a fool in his hands.
Just then, the door to the hospital room swung open.
The man she wanted to tear apart walked in.
Darwin rushed over and pulled her into his arms.
“Tamara, you’re finally awake! I knew you’d be okay!”
His hands were shaking, and so was his voice.
Tamara used every bit of her willpower not to kill him on the spot.
Darwin held her for a long time before finally letting go.
He seemed like he wanted to say something, but for some reason, he couldn’t get the words out.
Just as Tamara’s patience ran out, he finally spoke.
“Tamara, this morning Bella’s doctor called. They found a kidney match.”
Seeing his expression. Tamara felt a surge of absurdity rise inside her.
Sure enough, a moment later, Darwin added. “It’s you.”
If she looked closely, she could see the wild joy flashing in his eyes.
“Tamara, Bella doesn’t have to die now! Will you donate one of your kidneys to her?”
Tamara stared at him coldly, the irony cutting deep.
“And what if I say no?”
The words burst out of her mouth. “What if I told you your beloved Bella’s been faking her illness from the start? Would you believe me?”
