Benny felt so utterly humiliated.


    Knowing what was on his mind, Lindsey said coldly, “Dad, for thest time, I’m telling you the truth.


    me me all you want, but I don’t regret what I’ve done.


    ”


    “Benny Stewart, you’re not actually going to plead for that despicable woman, are you?” Leonel said angrily.N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Leonel had chosen to live with Juanita when their parents split, so Leonel’s love for his father had naturally faded.


    Moreover, Leonel looked down upon Benny so much that he refused to even call him “Dad”.


    Benny raised his head to take a good look at Leonel.


    The young man standing before him was now like a stranger to him.


    Now, his family was torn apart.


    He questioned how he had failed to such a severe extent.


    At longst, Benny stood up and shook his head in defeat.


    “Kendra hasmitted heinous crimes.


    She doesn’t deserve to be my wife anymore.


    I’m going to divorce her.


    ”


    Benny knew that the only way he could salvage his dignity was to divorce Kendra as soon as possible.


    As for the baby in her belly, Benny decided he’d conduct a paternity test as soon as it was born.


    If it was his own, he would take it in and raise it himself.


    Benny still clung to a glimmer of hope that it was his child.


    Leonel might’ve cut all ties with him, but if Kendra could give birth to a baby boy, then at least he’d still have a son who would look out for him when he grew old and frail.


    After all, daughters were usually married off.


    It was the sons who took care of their parents when they could no longer take care of themselves.


    Just then, Benny’s phone rang, interrupting his thoughts.


    It was a call from the police station, asking him to make a statement on record.


    This phone call served was the straw that broke the camel’s back; finally, Benny believed everything Lindsey said.


    After putting the phone down, Benny shakily walked out the door, his legs threatening to give out at any moment.


    Lindsey watched him leave; looking at his graying hair and frail body, she felt that he had aged a decade in the span of minutes.


    She felt sorry for him, but only for a moment.


    Wasn’t this all his own fault? He brought this upon himself!


    “Linds, Mom’s condition is stable now, and I’ve found a reliable caregiver for her.


    You’ve been on leave for a while now, and I know you’ve probably got a ton of work waiting for you at thepany,”


    Leonel said gently.


    Lindsey nodded.


    After feeding Juanita some water, Leonel walked Lindsey to the door.


    However, just as Lindsey opened the door to leave, she saw a group of reporters and cameramen rushing towards her from the end of the corridor.


    A nurse valiantly hurried forward in an attempt to stop the stampede, but there were just too many people.


    The crowd swarmed past her and headed straight to Juanita’s ward.


    Seeing Lindsey by the door, a reporter shoved a microphone in Lindsey’s face and said, “Miss Stewart, is it true that your mother, Juanita, has be a vegetable because of the fire?”


    Lindsey frowned unhappily.


    Over the past few days, she had done all she could to keep this a secret from the public, but unexpectedly, the media caught wind of it so soon.


    “You reporters have no morals! This is a hospital.


    You’re disturbing the patient!” Leonel shouted indignantly from behind Lindsey.


    However, Lindsey raised her hand to stop Leonel from going on a rampage.


    Then she calmly looked at the sea of reporters and said lightly, “Yes, it’s true.
