Chapter 787

Jennifer thought, "The homewrecker who ruined someone else’s relationship. The scammer who was even rumored to be involved in something obscene. The liar with no conscience who even mistreated her own adopted son. The woman who called me a worthless daughter, who never wanted me, and who hated and despised me. That woman is actually my real mother."

Jennifer once believed she could change at least something about her life. At the very least, she thought her own life could be bent, even just a little bit. But in the end, some things were just unchangeable from the moment she was born.

“You have arrived at Nareigh International Airport. Please remember to take all your belongings with you,” the announcement echoed through the terminal.

Jennifer came back to herself and wiped away her tears. She was the last passenger to board.

At the hospital, Donald couldn’t shake this uneasy feeling, like something bad was about to happen. He went downstairs to the break room to grab a cup of coffee, hoping to wake himself up a bit.

He thought about Jennifer. "She said she’s fine, but is she really?" Just as he was lost in his thoughts, there was a sudden bang. A young intern accidentally bumped into him, and his cup fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

“I’m so sorry, Dr. Lynn. I didn’t mean to,” the intern said, biting her lip. Then she quickly crouched down to help Donald pick up the broken pieces.

Donald gave the girl a polite smile. After all, she didn’t do it on purpose.

“Dr. Lynn,” the young intern suddenly mustered up her courage and grabbed his fingers. She said with a blush, “I’ve fallen for you.”

Donald was stunned for a moment. He gently pulled his fingers away and said, “I’m sorry, but I’m already married.”

“Oh? Is that so? I’m so sorry. I didn’t know you were married. I just started working here a few days ago, and I always see you by yourself—eating alone, leaving alone. I’m so sorry to bother you,” the intern blurted out.

Then she turned and dashed off.

Donald let out a sigh and stood up. He didn’t take it seriously and just made his way back to his office.

On his way, he bumped into a colleague. The colleague said, “Hey, Donald, is Jennifer back on duty or something?”

“What are you talking about?” Donald looked puzzled.

“Oh, isn’t Jennifer back? I just saw her at the hospital. She looked like she was in a real hurry and left super fast. I even called her name, but she didn’t seem to hear me. She was gone in a flash,” the colleague said.

Donald froze on the spot. He asked urgently, “When did you see her?”

“About three minutes ago. Why?” the colleague replied.

Suddenly, something clicked in Donald’s mind, and then he took off running. Jennifer had already gotten into a cab.

When the driver asked where she wanted to go, she didn’t even respond. She just stared blankly ahead, feeling desperate.

The cab eventually pulled over on some random street, and she handed over the fare before stepping out. Her mind kept replaying that scene—Donald’s hand in that young intern’s grip.

The sun was warm today, but it couldn’t warm her heart anymore. She thought, "So, the man I love most has already fallen for someone else, and my real mother turns out to be the woman I despise most in this world."

Everything that could break her happened all in one day.

Peggy’s words echoed in her mind, "If the hospital hadn’t refused to terminate the pregnancy, do you really think I would’ve wanted to have you? I never wanted you. I should never have given birth to you."

Jennifer thought, "Yeah, she was right. Just like she said, I shouldn’t have been born. I shouldn’t even be alive. Everything about me has been wrong from the very start. Maybe it’s time for me to disappear.

After all, if I were gone, the world wouldn’t even notice. I’m just a total mistake. I’ve never been loved, not even once. Maybe it’s time for me to be gone from this world for good."

She took a deep breath, turned around, and walked away.
