“Please pull the car to a halt”. Raven rasped at Adonis who looked at her in curiosity and without questioning her orders, he pulled the car to a halt. “Please wait for me here! I need to check something*.
She walked towards the car and right there she Heard the fainter voice of Mateo, who was still crying at the moment. “Mateo!!” She called out his name on finding him to be Morgan’s son. She went to meet the man who was breathing helplessly at the front seat of the car. “Please ma’am help us! Help this boy especially. He must not die ma’am help him”. Even though she didn’t want to help them in the first place because of his mother’s rudeness, she couldn’t resist his pleading.
Raven called Adonis and pleaded with him to take the kids home and explained everything to him which he understands. She quickly call an *ambulance* so they could be carried to the hospital. In that process, The bodyguard phone rings and he gives her the order to pick up the call. Unfortunately, the bodyguard couldn’t even turn back nor could he move his body because a tree had fallen on top of the car from the left hand side of the other seat which fell on him. Luckily, his phone wasn’t affected by the accident which had happened.
Ravens picked the call which turned out to be Morgan. “And why are you on this call instead of him? Or as his girlfriend is that how you usually pick your man phone?” Raven scoffed on hearing Morgan scolding without knowing who she’s actually speaking to.
“Calmed down Morgan. Your voice is too high”. Raven let out a deep breath on behalf of the unpleasant news she’s about to share with her. “Your driver engaged in a ghostly motor accident, Stefan. I just say I should let you know”…… “And how’s that my business raven? How did you even know he engaged in an accident, are you his girlfriend or one of his family members?” Raven was really so disappointed to hear such words from her.
“And your son is among them, Morgan. I just feel like I should let you know that. Okay!” At that moment, an ambulance siren could be Heard. Raven made sure she heard the sound of the ambulance before cutting off the call. “She’s behind this”. Raven heard him saying that as she turned to look at Mateo.
The ambulance quickly came down with their wheel stretcher. *Please ma’am don’t go away. Can you follow us to the hospital? I know Morgan will kill me the moment she finds out I can survive this”. He pleaded with sad eyes as she nodded her head. “alright sure “. In less than three minutes, they were taken into the car and Raven also entered the car with them. Even though she wanted to restrict doing this, she found herself doing it for no reason.
In less than thirty minutes, they arrive at a nearby hospital. The two of them were taken to the same ward immediately to get an immediate treatment. Raven was stopped by the doctor to wait for the passenger, which she did. While Sitting down quietly while awaiting the doctor’s result, the phone which she had held for the driver rings again and this time, she feels like picking it. She eventually picked up the call
“Raven!!!” Raven Heard the familiar voice calling out her name as she turned back and saw Morgan. “What are you doing here, raven? Is this some kind of play, did you call me here just to get my attention?” Morgan bellowed at her as she smiled. “Does this look like a play to you?” It was at this moment the doctor came outside.
“You’re the mother of the child right?” The female doctor facing them at the moment asked, referring to raven who she knew to have a resemblance with the child also. “no doctor, I’m the mother”. Morgan utter with a terror look. It was at this moment raven words became true to her.
“Please the child needs blood transfusion and at this moment we’ve run out of blood.. he needs the blood within thirty minutes ma’am! To survive if not we have to go to another hospital in search of blood that can read with his blood group. Since you’re his mother then I’m sure your blood group will match with his own”. Morgan’s eyes widened open as she stood frozen, trying to comprehend what the doctor just spoke. “Mateo needs a blood transfusion. She needs to donate blood for her child”.
“Please ma’am, come with me let’s do this”. The doctor pleaded with her pondering why she was hesitating to do this. Morgan knew she needed to do something. She needs to follow the doctor and give it a try. Maybe her blood group could match with Mateo’s own. There’s no need to try to disgrace or reveal her secret in front of Raven.
Morgan quietly followed the doctor to the theater room. A test was done on her but just as she had thought, her blood didn’t match with his own. “Please doctor, do everything you can to save my son. Please send someone to go and get the blood in other hospitals. You need to save my son”. Morgan commanded the doctor so that she won’t bring the blood transfusion issues again so that it won’t look like she isn’t the mother of the child.
“I will do that ma’am”.
Raven wanted to turn back and walk away before, knowing that they’re now in safe hands when she sighted Stefan walking towards her direction. Raven looked away and took a step slowly, going to where she was going but Stefan stopped her. “Excuse me ma’am, please where’s ward (No. 54) . Do you know someone named MATEO that was taken there?”
Raven’s heart skipped in shock as she glared at him and pointed her hands towards the ward that was closed to them at the moment. “This is the ward they were taken to”. She said about to walk away but Stefan called her name. “Raven! Please wait”. A wave of emotion rushed through her body the moment she heard him calling her name which she turned back to look at him. “I’m not Raven! You’ve mistaken me to be someone you know”. At this moment, the doctor and Morgan came out to witness the scenes.
“Hello ma’am, please can I test your blood group to see if it’ll match with the kids’ own? He really needs blood transfusion right now and he’s running out of time”. The doctor uttered as a smile crept through her lips. After comprehending everything, she finally came to the conclusion that Stefan was the father of Mateo. Which explains the reason why the child looks so much like him. So since Stefan was here, she decided to add fire to the situation. Maybe this could be her way of getting back at Morgan.
“But I thought you went to test the mother of the child? Shouldn’t her blood group match with his own?” Raven shrugged at the doctor, thereby making Stefan curious as well. On the other hand, Morgan was just panicking. Her body was shaking due to everything that was happening and how her plan had backfired on her.
“Of course doctor, I will gladly help the innocent boy out of Pity”. She started and followed her, leaving Stefan alone with Morgan. “What happened Morgan! What’s the meaning of this?” Stefan questions her, still in shock of what just happened.
“Nothing my love. Nothing is wrong, okay! Our son will be fine soon! Nothing will happen to him”. She shrugged at him, trying to avoid the topic of what he was trying to talk about as she hugged him tightly to herself but in anger, Stefan pushed him away like a plague which he was avoiding.
“Are you seriously telling me that this means nothing? You’re not the mother of that child for fucking Christ_sake! Did you go and abort someone’s child for me?” Stefan shrugged at her and went to check Mateo who was on the hospital bed. He ponders how the child looks so much like him but yet it turns out Morgan wasn’t the one that birthed that child for him.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Morgan ran after him, hoping to pet him so he could calm down. “Please my love, calm down! I know you’re overwhelmed with everything that has happened”. At this moment, the door went open revealing the doctor who had come out with the blood. “luckily, her blood group matches with his”. The doctor shrugged at him as his eyes widened open.

Raven as well found everything that was happening confusing. She doesn’t know how her blood group turns out to match with Mateo’s own. On the other hand, she doesn’t know why she was helping the innocent boy in the first place. something inside her felt for him which made her volunteer to help him by calling the ambulance when she saw them in the car struggling for their life.
“Sir, You should check up on the driver too. It seems like he knew who was behind the accident because he kept on telling me to call you before they found out about him”. Raven shrugged at Stefan, hoping he knew what she was talking about.
“If you may excuse me, I should get going now”. The moment Raven wanted to take a step, Morgan held her hand and put her into an embrace which Raven tried so much to free herself from hers because she knew that the hugging is just a pretend act by her. “Thank you so much Raven. Thank you for rescuing my child when the accident happened. I really owe you for this and I hope to repay you for your kindness one day “. Through the hugging process, Stefan’s eyes were fixed on Raven’s own. He didn’t want to let go of her light brown eyes which were shining through his eyes . They got so engrossed in glaring at each other that Morgan clapped her hand which made them recover from their imagination.
“Raven, do you know my husband?” Morgan questions her, hoping she won’t turn out to be the Ex wife he had been looking for.
Raven was speechless. She didn’t know what to say at this moment. Her gaze was glued to the ground innocently. “She knows me, Morgan! Please let’s not change the topic of the matter right now. Can you just fucking tell me the truth for once?? Did you adopt Mateo to take advantage of me?” A shiver run down her spine the moment he ask her such questions
