Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2745

Might not wake up…

"Doesn’t that mean she’s in a vegetative state…”

Gareth nodded. "Yes, but I can't give her up. That’s why I've been getting various experts to treat Millicent for more than 20 years. Unfortunately, nothing has worked.

It must not be easy living like this.

My heart hurt for my mother. I could hardly imagine if she still felt anything. She must have been in so much pain for the past 20-plus years.

"I'm very grateful to Rosa. If she hadn't supported me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be where I am today."

Beside me, Theo spoke up, "Miss Rosa was the one who persuaded her family to invest in you. That’s why you opened the company."

"That's right. Rosa, I'm sorry. I’m aware of your intentions, but I can't accept you. I can't give you anything." Gareth's words were completely helpless.

Rosa shook her head and smiled. "You said the same words to me 20 years ago. Still, I’m willing. You don't need to apologize to me.”

"Aunt Rosa, you’re incredible.”

"I’m not. I’m only willing because I love him.” Rosa looked at me, her eyes revealing her true feelings.

I was also touched by my father's persistence.

"Can I go see Mom? I've never seen her face in person. I really want to see her.”

"Of course," Gareth agreed.

Rosa did not come with us and remained at Gareth’s home. Gareth rode Theo's car with us and Theo made haste. He probably hoped that I could see my mother faster too.

With Gareth’s directions, we arrived at the door of the ward where my mother resided.

It was a VIP-exclusive room that no one would be able to locate unless they had permission to enter.

I felt apprehensive at this moment and looked back at Theo. Sensing my nervousness, he grabbed my hand, his gaze filled with power.

I nodded slightly and then opened the door to the ward.

The room was a sea of white, and my mother was lying on the bed. She was still receiving IV drips for nourishment.
