Getty hadn''t looked in the mirror since the ident. Her face was wrapped in bandages, leaving only her eyes and mouth visible. Naturally, her expressions were hard to read.Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    "What''s going on here?" Alexander asked, surveying the mess of fragments and fruit around him.


    Getty leaned against the headboard, looking at him pitifully and tugging at his sleeve.


    "I thought you despised me and abandoned me. My face was disfigured, and even you have left me. What''s the point of living?" she said, her eyes fixed on Alexander, ignoring Lucy and Gilbert beside her. Her parents couldn''t help but tear up at her words.


    "Alexander, do you think I''m ugly now? And I''m half-paralyzed," Getty said,ughing bitterly. "Who would like someone like me?"


    Alexander stayed silent for a moment, then asked, "Is this why you don''t want to eat?"


    "I don''t even want to live, so why eat?" Getty replied hoarsely.


    Alexander frowned. "If that''s the case, then I have no reason to stay."


    He turned to leave, but Getty grabbed his wrist. "Don''t go!"


    She looked at Lucy and Gilbert. "You two go out first. I need to talk to Alexander."


    They exchanged nces and left the room.


    When the door closed, Alexander asked, "What is it?"


    "My parents said you were investigating my background. They told me I''m not their biological child," Getty said. "Can you tell me who my real parents are?"


    "Do you really want to know?" Alexander asked.


    "Of course I do. They''re my biological parents!" Getty nodded.

    Sensing something in Alexander''s eyes, she quickly added, "I just want to ask them why they abandoned me."


    "You can ask Ms. Anderson," Alexander said.


    "Ms. Anderson?" Getty thought of Ruby from the Kennedy Group. "Is it Ruby?"


    Alexander nodded. "That''s right."


    "Why ask her?" Getty was puzzled.


    "When you were being rescued and urgently need blood transfusion, she donated blood for you. Your DNA test results are almost a hundred percent simr. What do you think?" Alexander exined. Getty''s eyes widened. His words implied that Ruby was her sister.

    "If she''s my sister, why didn''t she look for me?" Getty asked.


    "You''ll have to ask her that," Alexander replied.


    Getty''s mind was a mess. She didn''t know much about Ruby''s background or where she lived. They had conflicts at the Kennedy Group and didn''t get along, so it made sense Ruby wouldn''t want to acknowledge her. "You should focus on recovering. I''m leaving," Alexander said.


    Getty snapped back to reality and grabbed his hand again, pleading, "Can''t you stay a bit longer?"


    "I have things to do," Alexander said, brushing off her hand and leaving.


    Getty stared at him, her fingers clenched tightly. Even in this state, she couldn''t earn hispassion. All her injuries were because of him.


    Hearing the door close, Getty''s tears burst out, and a surge of unwillingness and anger made her eyes instantly red.


    Alexander left Getty''s ward and returned to Abigail''s ward.
