"No!"
Evangeline was the first to react with emotional feelings.
She held Zion's hand tightly, feeling uneasy.
He won't really agree, would he?
Although the two of them were in love with each other, they hadn't exposed their true feeling yet. Based on her understanding of Zion, he was a very responsible person.
If he really agreed, he would just marry her, and he would never have any connection with other women in his life, no matter how much he liked her.
No!
No way!
He was too responsible. Such a man would only marry a woman in his life, either he loved her or he felt guilty towards her.
And now, what Ivy said made Zion feel guilty.
Evangeline's hands trembled and started to sweat.
Zion was also stunned.
He completely understood the shape of Ivy's lips.
Marry her?
Zion frowned slightly.
For some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Zion didn't know what to say, but he suddenly opened his mouth.
"The kidnapper threw a bomb when I shoot, my ears were injured and I couldn't hear any sound too far away from me. The doctor said it was very likely that I couldn't be cured."
Ivy was suddenly shocked.
Deaf?
She had thought that she might not be worthy of Zion, but she heaved a sigh of relief when she heard what he said.
One of them couldn't give birth, and another became deaf. They were a match.
She coughed, and suddenly covered her stomach with her hands, her face shows how pain she was. Her forehead was even covered with cold sweat.
Mariani quickly went up to her and put a pillow for her, said, "My daughter, your uterus has been pierced, how can you say so much? Just keep your mouth close. If this person has a conscience, he will marry you even you didn't say so. If he doesn't have a conscience, it does not work even if you say it. Why do you have such a hard life in this lifetime?"
She said it to Zion with her back to him. Zion didn't hear it, but Evangeline heard it.
Her face instantly turned pale.
Seeing her expression, Zion knew that Mariani said something bad. He couldn't help but he hold her hand tightly and then said to Ivy, "I will take responsibility for your injury. If you need me after you are discharged from the hospital, I will do my best. I know that what I said may be a little cold- blooded. I also know that according to common sense, I hurt you and let you impregnant, I should marry you. But I'm sorry, I have someone I love. My marriage certificate will only keep it for her."
Ivy was shocked...
She never thought that the handsome man in front of her would say such a thing.
"Do you think I don't have someone I love? But because of this accident, my boyfriend doesn't want me anymore! Maybe no one will marry me in the future! How can you compensate me for this?"
She was so emotional that her wound got hurt again, making her so painful that she twitched twice.
Mariani's heart ached so much that her tears fell.
She turned to glare at Zion and said, "Don't irritate her, okay? She just came back from the jaws of death, and her body is still weak. I know you can understand what I'm talking about. You've been staring at my mouth, can you understand the shape of my lips? If you want to get married, doesn't my daughter deserve to get married?"
Evangeline suddenly became a bit angry. Not long ago, her sympathy and guilt for the mother and daughter were suddenly suppressed by anger. She wanted to say something, but she noticed that Zion pinched her hard.
It was so hurt!
This damn man!
How dare he pinch her palm!
