Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 169

It was like a tangled ball of thread, winding tighter and tighter in Josephine’s heart.

Wanting to find a clue to the answer, she returned to Belinda’s hospital room.

There were strands of Belinda’s hair on the pillow.

Josephine picked up three in a row, but found none had follicles attached.

If she wanted to do a paternity test, the hair had to have follicles.

Shed hair usually doesn’t have them; she would have to pull some directly from the scalp.

Josephine glanced at Helena sleeping on the sofa–there was no sign she would wake up.

She bent down and gently touched Belinda’s hair.

Her feelings were truly complicated.

This was the second time she had doubted whether Belinda was really her biological daughter.

What if Belinda really wasn’t her own child?

Should she abandon her completely? Ignore her? Then go find the other girl who survived and do a paternity test?

Josephine’s mind was in turmoil.

After hesitating for a moment, she still wanted to get to the bottom of this question.

Steeling herself, she yanked out two strands of Belinda’s hair at once.

Belinda felt the pain, scratched her head, and opened her eyes in a daze.

She saw her mother wrapping the hairs she had just pulled from her head in a clean tissue and putting them into her own bag.

At seven o’clock, Belinda woke up.

She wanted to ask her mother why she had pulled out her hair.

But her ankle hurt so much that she didn’t want to speak; she couldn’t even cry.

Josephine hurriedly fed Belinda a few spoonfuls of millet porridge, trying her best to protect her stomach lining from the painkillers.

Once the painkillers took effect and Belinda was getting sleepy, Rowan came in for his rounds.

Josephine thought the rounds would be over in five minutes.

Unexpectedly, ten minutes later Rowan was still there, standing around and flattering Wilfred.

“It is a great honor for me to treat Mr. Hayden’s daughter.”

“I really envy the employees at Novo Tech, who get to experience your charisma and leadership every day, Mr. Hayden.”

“In my next life, I won’t study medicine. I’ll go into tech…”

Josephine was very annoyed and said coldly, “If you’re done with your rounds, please leave. Do you only have one patient?”

Rowan was embarrassed.

He cursed Josephine inwardly, thinking she deserved to be abandoned by a wealthy family–so fierce and cold, not a trace of femininity, and apart from her looks, she was good for nothing…

Wilfred was used to Josephine’s sharp tongue, and since this time it wasn’t directed at him, he said nothing.

Rowan left in a huff.

Wilfred sat on the sofa, watching Josephine gently pat Belinda to sleep.

For a moment, he felt as if he had gone back to when Belinda was one year old.

After coming home from work, he used to like standing at the door of the nursery, watching Josephine put Belinda to sleep.

That was Josephine at her gentlest, and he missed that feeling of happiness and

contentment…

Helena noticed the way Wilfred was looking at Josephine, as if he were about to melt, and quickly called him back to his senses.

“Fred, you haven’t slept all night. Go get some rest in the bedroom.”

Wilfred was indeed looking a bit tired.

Helena helped him take off his suit jacket and deliberately said, “Just go take a shower. I’ll bring your clothes in for you in a bit.”

Wilfred didn’t object.

Helena hung up the clothes the driver had brought, one by one, in the wardrobe, and even took out Wilfred’s underwear on purpose.
