Chapter 164 The Secret Was Discovered

After hearing this news, Elena was both sad and shocked. Now thinking about it, Elena always felt that Amanda was very biased. If Ryan was really her son, she should have thought about him more than Roman. But she always behaved like this, because Ryan was not related to her at all.

It was a good think that, Ryan knew the truth. Otherwise, he probably would be hurt every time by her words.

But now that Ryan could not see his biological mother, he would probably miss her very much.

“Can you see your mother often now?” Elena asked. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Probably once or twice a year. It’s just that I feel that we are not the same type of people and have a bad relationship.”

It wasn’t really bad. But it didn’t have the feeling of being mother and son. After all, they hadn’t met each other for so many years, so they were naturally a little rusty. Moreover, that woman was very tsundere, so she naturally wouldn’t take initiative to get closer.

Elena didn’t know how to comfort him at this moment. It was indeed very sad. She just went forward and hugged him tightly. It was the best method she could use to comfort him.

“Alright. Let’s not talk about this anymore. You’ve been slapped. I’ll go and apply medicine to you first. I can’t let such a beautiful face be ruined by a single slap from her.”

Ryan said as he caressed her face. He knew sooner or later, he would return this slap.

After returning home, Ryan received a phone call and went to study to settle some matters. Elena returned to the bedroom.

She sat in the bathroom and was wiping medicine. The red medicine had a pungent smell. For some reason, she felt this smell was too strong.

Elena looked herself in the mirror. There was trace of fatigue on her somewhat swollen face. She had been extremely tired from working during this period of time and was even slapped by Amanda today.

This matter definitely could not be let go just like that. Why should Amanda say that? And in the office today, she felt that Amanda seemed to be in a somewhat abnormal state of mind.

While lost in thought, Elena accidently gripped the medicine tube. It sprinkled it all over the floor.

Seeing this Elena was anxious and accidently put her foot on the medicine. As the result she slipped and directly hit the bathtub and fainted.

After about two or three hours, Ryan came out of the study room. When he returned to the room, he didn’t find Elena. Where did this woman go?

Ryan went to the bathroom to check. When he opened the bathroom door, he found Elena lying in the bathroom unconscious.

Without thinking, Ryan stood from the wheelchair and rushed to pick Elena up. He carried Elena and

placed her on the bed to check if she had any wounds.

He looked around her body but did not find any wound or blood. But there was a big bump on her head. When he saw this, he knew what was going on. He shook his head helplessly.

Seeing that the woman was sleeping soundly, it should not be a big deal. He gently tugged in the blanket. He again sat in the wheelchair and went downstairs to bring some ice cubes and instructed Mrs. Baker to cook something before going up to clean.

However, just as the bedroom door closed, Elena suddenly woke up. She did not expect that she would actually faint after knocking on the bathtub.

Elena rubbed her aching head and actually touched her egg-sized bump. “Damn it, I am already so big but I still fell. I am simply too stupid.”

Elena got up and went to the bathroom to wash her face. Today was really bad for her. First she encountered Tina, then Roman, and she was slapped by Amanda, and now she even fell down and hit her head.

However when Elena went to the bathroom, she found that there was a shoe print in the middle of the pool of medicine. Was it Mrs. Baker who helped her onto the bed just now?

But looking at the shoe print, it didn’t look like it was the size of a woman. Then could it be that…

Suddenly Elena thought of something and ran out to the bathroom, straight to the cloakroom. Elena quietly took out a shoe of Ryan and brought it to the bathroom to compare. The shoe print was exactly the same size as Ryan’s shoe!

Elena looked at it in disbelief and compared the shoe with the shoe print again and again.

But every time the print was exactly same as Ryan’s shoe.

What was going on?

Could it be that Ryan’s leg was already healed? And he had been pretending from the beginning?

Thinking of this, Elena had an indescribable feeling. She could not believe it at all. She and Ryan had been married for so long. Why didn’t he tell her that his legs were better?

Could it be that she was still an outsider to Ryan?

Suddenly Elena got up and went downstairs.

When Ryan saw her coming down, he smiled. “You’re awake? Is your head better? When I went in and found you unconscious, I had no choice but to ask Mrs. Baker help you to the bed.”

Elena looked at him and did not speak. She only nodded her head. When there was still five to six steps away from the first floor, Elena suddenly raised her leg, pretending to be stepping on the air and falling down.

When Ryan saw this, he instantly got up and rushed to Elena to hold her.

Elena raised her head and looked at him in disbelief. There was both surprise and shock in her eyes.

Only then did Ryan realize that in order to save her, he forgot that he could not stand up.

Mrs. Baker who was cooking in the kitchen heard the sound and went out to see the situation. When she saw Ryan was hugging Elena was his legs were supporting the weight of two people, she was shocked.

“Ryan, even now, you are still lying to me. Your legs are absolutely fine! And you are pretending to be a cripple in front of me??!!” Elena shouted at the top of her lungs.

Could it be that, in Ryan’s heart… Is she the woman who can’t be trusted?

“Elena, listen to me. I didn’t mean to hide this from you, but I…”

“It has been more than half a year since we got married. I know previously it was because I replaced Amara to marry you, you didn’t trust me at the beginning. But I didn’t expect that after being with you for so long, you still did not trust me. Why did I have to find out myself? If I didn’t find out today, are you planning to keep this from me for rest of the life?”

Elena suddenly felt that she was a clown. She protected him from everyone, fought for his sake in everything, and trusted him so much that she would listen to his opinions in everything.

And in the end, she didn’t expect that she would be the one being played in the end.
