Her Sensational Return with Triplets After Six Years

Chapter 45 Karter Is Unscrupulous

The call came from Raul. Hearing about Bethany's car accident, he quickly called to express his concern.

Now Raymond was in no mood to answer any calls, but he had some questions he wanted to ask Raul, so he picked it up.

"Was Bethany very busy at the hospital yesterday?" asked Raymond sternly, not giving Raul the opportunity to speak.

When Raul heard that, his heart tightened instantly, and he hurriedly explained, "Since the medical accident, I have never let Bethany enter the operating room again. Yesterday...I just learned that a group of people had come to our hospital after a gang fight, and the emergency room was short-staffed, so Bethany went to help. I really didn't know that. Bethany volunteered for it, so she was pretty busy. When she left the hospital, it was already dark."

Hearing that, Raymond finally understood that Bethany had been busy at the hospital until late before being urged by him to rush to Zavala Group without stopping.

Seeing that Raymond did not speak, Raul was so frightened that he dared not even breathe heavily. He continued in trepidation, "Mr. Zavala, I have arranged the best ward and expert team for Bethany. If you agree to transfer her here, our hospital will definitely provide her with the best medical resources."

Raymond looked over at Bethany, who was in a coma. He thought it would make her suffer even more if she was transferred to another hospital. He also felt that she probably didn't want her former colleagues to see her like this.

"No," said Raymond before hanging up.

After Raymond answered Raul's phone call, his guilt became even stronger. He thought, "Bethany was right. I'm a selfish person who never considers others at all."

Bethany was still unconscious, so Raymond could think of nothing else. He didn't even bother to meet the driver who caused the accident.

However, someone else cared about this. As Karter's phone rang, the person on the other end said in trepidation, "Please put your heart at ease. It's very natural. No one will know the accident was actually plotted."

Karter didn't speak, but just smiled insidiously.

"Time for dinner. Who are you talking to on the phone?" Fiona shouted towards the sofa.

"Okay." Karter put down his phone and walked towards the dining table.

"Why is today's dinner so simple?" Karter glanced at the table and saw only two dishes of vegetables and two bowls of porridge.

"There are only the two of us, and as we get older, we should eat something light. You should also eat less meat from now on," said Fiona unhappily.

"Who made you unhappy today? Why are you so angry?" asked Karter.

Hearing that, Fiona put down her fork and said angrily, "We used to be a family of four, but now there are only the two of us. I know Aria is busy filming, but it's rare for Nolan to return from abroad. Therefore, how could you not let him come back home just because you're still angry with him?"

"Am I the one who didn't let him come back home? He doesn't want to come back at all. Since he doesn't want to come back, just leave him be then. He'd better never come back!" said Karter angrily.

"You are father and son, so why can't you have a good talk with him? Don't you have any responsibility for this mess between you two? Why can't you just make a concession and have a good conversation with your son?"

"What responsibility do I have? This is all caused by his rebellious disobedience."

"Then why is he rebellious? Is it not because you have a strong desire to control him? Aria likes to be in the entertainment industry, and she can live with your arrangement. But Nolan has his own ideas. He likes to study medicine, and he just does not like the major you have chosen for him or the girl you have arranged for him. What's wrong with that?"

"I've been caring about his career and marriage, but he didn't appreciate it at all. What has he done? He brought back a dubious woman. He just meant to anger me, didn't he?"

"And then? Why don't you mention what kind of reckless means you used to break them up? If it weren't that Nolan was completely disappointed, why would he have left home and gone abroad for a few years without coming back?" Fiona grew angrier and angrier as she spoke. "As for Aria, as soon as she was born, you went to talk to the Zavala family about her engagement with Ray, and the Zavala family also agreed, but look how it ends now."

"Are you going to settle accounts with me now? Fine, just say everything you want to say so that you won't get sick from anger and then blame me." Karter also put down his fork and stopped eating.

"I'm not settling accounts with you. I am just telling it as it is. Ever since Aria was a kid, you've been telling her that when she grows up, she can marry Ray, and it's stuck in her mind. But what does it end up with? Is Aria not the one who is hurt? As for the matter of Damion, how absurd it is..."

Fiona had never dared to say anything about the matter of Damion all these years, and her tone became weak when speaking of this.

"The matter of Damion was planned by Mrs. Gina. It has nothing to do with our Shepard family, doesn't it? She insisted on continuing the blood of the Zavala family and found an unfaithful woman to give birth to a child for Raymond. That woman, however, brought nothing but shame upon the Zavala family. Who was to be blamed for that except Mrs. Gina herself? In my opinion, a bastard like Damion shouldn't have been kept, but she chose to keep him and even found a master to divine for him, saying that Damion was the mascot of the Zavala family and that with him, the safety of Raymond and the prosperity of the Zavala family would be ensured. Is it not all nonsense? She is determined to keep Damion, and Aria is also determined to marry Raymond. It is also her idea to announce to the public that Damion is the child of Ray and Aria. Thinking about it now, Aria has really suffered many grievances," said Karter with no guilt.

Upon hearing that, Fiona showed a hesitant expression and slowly said, "Ray's serious injury and coma were indeed a blow to Mrs. Gina. As also a mother, I understand why she wanted to continue the blood of the Zavala family. At first, she also came to me and wanted Aria to have a child with Ray. I really feel sorry for Ray, but Aria is my biological daughter after all. What if Ray never wakes up after Aria gives birth to a child for him? Therefore, I politely refused her. I thought Mrs. Gina had given up. Unexpectedly, she was so cautious and found a woman to give birth to a child for Ray. That woman had been pregnant for ten months, but she was never exposed to the public. No one knew what that woman looked like even till she died. But there's one thing I've always been puzzled about. As cautious and smart as Mrs. Gina, why would she make such a mistake in the end? Not to mention that the pregnancy was also planned by her. What kind of woman would dare to lie under Mrs. Gina's nose? That woman is dead, however, and the matter will remain a mystery forever. As a woman died in the delivery room, she was really pitiful."

"That bitch lied, so she deserved it. Understand?" Fiona met Karter's fierce and sharp gaze, and it scared her.

"I don't care what you think about this matter, but it's already the case. Never mention it again. No matter what happens, Damion can only be the son of Raymond and Aria. Keep your mouth shut. If you slip it out in front of Raymond and Damion, you can't bear the consequences!"

Fiona certainly knew that this matter was of great importance, so she could only keep it in her heart.

"I've only mentioned it to you. Who else can I tell? Fine, let's never talk about it again. Let's just talk about Ray and Aria. You've been trying to bring them together, but it's not working, so let's just give up. If Ray really wants to be with Bethany, just let it be. Don't use the same way you used to deal with Nolan's girlfriend to deal with her."

"Can we just focus on dinner? Why do you have so much to say? You make me lose all my appetite!" Karter directly threw down his fork.

After saying that, he went straight upstairs, and Fiona was very angry.
