Chapter 720: Chapter 699: Sterilization

"You figured it out from that?"

How had he never realized that his woman was such a smart creature?

"Indeed, just as you thought, you two are real sisters!"

"Sister, are you blaming me for recognizing you and my brother-in-law without your consent?"

Ariana Hunt slowly approached Lina Miller, and seeing her tear-streaked face, she bent down for a symbolic hug but quickly let go, not daring to move too much since her heart had been stabbed.

Lina stared at her face, choking back sobs, struggling to speak for a long time. Finally, she managed to say, "How did you escape back then? And who was the little corpse beside our parents?"

If she had known that her sister was alive, she would have gone looking for her.

"The fire started so suddenly that no one was prepared. The flames were fierce, Dad saved me and told me to find you so you wouldn’t go home. He said the fire was intentional, and then he went upstairs to save mom, whose legs were crushed!"

The Miller family used to be one of the major families in Westminster, doing well in business. The fire was quite an accident, and Lina had considered it might have been arson rather than just an accident. However, the police station intervened and found no signs of arson.

Therefore, she didn’t think much of it. But now that her sister said this, she suddenly remembered, "You mean dad knew the fire was arson and asked you to find me?"

At that time, Lina had gone to a classmate’s house to do homework and managed to avoid the disaster. When she returned, all she saw were corpses!

"Yes, that’s what Dad told me at the time. I went to your classmate’s house to find you, but I didn’t remember the way very well. I walked a long time without finding it, and then someone hit me with a stick. When I woke up, I was at the Hunt residence. The Hunt family told me that they found me fainting on the road and took me in. Later, I heard that the entire Miller family had died in the fire. I wanted to go home, but Mrs. Hunt told me that if I went out now and the bad guys found out, it would kill me. So, I stayed with the Hunt family, thinking that when I grow up and have the ability, I will investigate this matter. But later, I did look into it, and all the evidence pointed to an accident; nothing about arson came up, so it was left unresolved!"

After all, she was only seven years old at the time, and her mind wasn’t mature. So many years had passed and it would naturally be difficult to investigate now.

"I’m sorry, sister!"

When Lina heard these words, she was completely dumbfounded. She had never thought that the tragedy was intentional, always thinking that it was an accident. Today she was told that it was arson. How could she accept it...?

Ariana’s words seemed to fall on deaf ears, and Lina was frozen stiff.

"Lina!"

Seeing her like this, Mario Jensen glared angrily at Ariana for saying such words at this time. Ariana realized her error when she saw Lina’s reaction.

"Lina, don’t be like this. At least now you have your sister. As for this matter, I’ll definitely help you find out the truth!"

Mario coaxed her for a while before finally bringing her back to her senses. Seeing the worried faces of the two in front of her, she realized that she’d made them worry again. One hit after another led to Lina’s forced smile seemingly so helpless. She had lost the child, and her family’s tragedy might not have been an accident. But at least her sister was still alive.

Mario eventually coaxed her into drinking a little soup and then let her rest. Ariana kept her head down, not daring to look at Mario. She thought Lina knew about it, which was why she said it. Little did she know that Lina didn’t know about it.

Now, not only did she feel guilty, but it seemed Mario would blame her as well!

Unexpectedly, Mario did not say a word and just ignored her, focusing only on coaxing Lina to eat and drink. He then ordered his subordinates to investigate the matter from years ago. It wasn’t until a few hours later that he realized Ariana was still in the ward before telling her to go home and rest.

The mood grew heavier and heavier, so heavy that Ariana felt as if she couldn’t breathe. Ariana thought it was necessary to speed up her plans to find a boyfriend and get married, worried that she might lose control and actually do something embarrassing.

Each time she saw him, the feeling of indescribable longing increased. When she left Lina’s ward, Ariana told Mario that she had something to do for the next few days and wouldn’t visit until her sister’s condition improved.

Mario naturally thought it was because Lina was reminded of the Miller family’s tragedy not being an accident but a murder whenever she saw Ariana. After all, an accident could be attributed to fate but murder implied that the killer was still at large, and she had no idea.

Mario didn’t think much of it, not expecting that the next time he saw Ariana, he would receive her wedding invitation.

Since being in the hospital for days had made Lina down and gloomy, on the third day, Mario used an ambulance to take her home to recover. He brought all his work home so he could take care of the house as well.

However, spending twenty-four hours with his woman proved to be quite a test for Mario’s restraint.

Especially since he helped her with bathing and grooming, temperatures were bound to rise. Finally, on the seventh day, he couldn’t help himself and said, "Lina, I think I need to have surgery too!"

A request for surgery out of nowhere frightened Lina, "What’s wrong with you? Are you hurt from when you fought with those Orchid Kingdom guys the other day?"

Other than that time, Lina couldn’t think of any other opportunity for Mario to get hurt.

"No, I think I need to have a ligation surgery!" Mario calmly said while helping her wipe her body. "If this continues, I’ll get sick from holding back! I’ll have a ligation surgery, recover for a month, and then we can go back to our normal married life. Most importantly, you won’t have to suffer from pregnancy anymore!"

The last accidental pregnancy left a shadow on Mario’s heart. Even with safety measures in place, accidents still occurred. He would have to live like a monk for at least five years, which was just as torturous as having her taken away.

"Get out of here! What are you thinking with your lust-filled brain! " Lina snatched the bath towel from his hands and covered her own body, "I’ll wash myself from now on. Just have Mrs. Zinn help me. Don’t think about those useless things. If you have ligation surgery, you won’t be able to have children! What will you give Nirina if she wants a brother like Bianca one day!"

Lina firmly believed that the lost child would come back to them in the next life, so she would definitely have another one. Besides, giving birth to a child for her beloved husband was a happy thing.

Recently, Mario had been busy investigating the Miller family’s tragedy, and she knew it. He did so much for her, so the least she could do was give him more children, right?
