Tom frowned slightly. "Yeah, it's fine. She's just like that. She'll get over it in a few days. Don't worry."
Dina raised an eyebrow and pouted. "I'm not so sure. I think Regina is really furious this time. The other day, when I took the child to the hospital for a vaccination, I overheard the nurses talking. They said when Regina mentioned you, she didn't seem angry at all. Instead, she was joking with her colleagues, saying it's up to you whether you come or not, since the child in her belly has nothing to do with you anyway."
She even provoked him any further, "She also said she's gathering evidence. Once everything is ready, she'll file for divorce. Forget about the kids—you won't get a single cent of the hospital shares either!'
Tom's hand, which was pouring water, suddenly froze. He turned around slowly, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Dina. "Is that true?"
"Tom, I'd even give my life for you. When have I ever lied to you?" Dina said seriously.
That man's face turned ashen. He snatched up a teacup from nearby and slammed it against the door with a loud crash.
He immediately pulled out his phone and called his assistant. "Cancel the doctor. Don't go to the hospital either. Get back here right now!"
The assistant didn't respond, but his tone was very anxious as he spoke. "Tom, the doctor said that five days ago, your wife called him, saying she was experiencing difficult labor and that she and the child were on the brink of death."
"Didn't you hear me tell you to get back here?" Tom roared.
"Tom … "
Tom hung up the phone while the assistant kept calling out to him repeatedly.
He was furious, like a raging beast, overturning the table in front of him.
After a long silence, he took out his phone again and gave the order, "Arrange an adoption banquet for tomorrow. From that day forward, Dina's son will be my biological child, Tom Lynch's only son. Also, buy a diamond ring for me. I'm going to propose to Miss Dawson. And I want all of this to take place at the hospital!"
That night, Tom and Dina tangled together passionately on that small bed.
Early the next morning, he pushed her away and called the hospital. "Has your Dr. Whitaker not made a single sound since he heard I was going to propose to another woman?"
The one who answered the phone was still that young nurse. This time, she hung up the phone without saying a word.
