Chapter 38
Many of them among the audience sympathized with this “virtuous” family, expressing their indignation.
lan turned to Benjamin and asked gently, “Your mom left when you were just five. Don’t you hate her?”
“I don’t because….. my grandma and dad told me that she didn’t marry my dad willingly. My dad borrowed 30 thousand dollars to buy my mom. Although my grandma and dad treated my mom well, she had no feelings for my dad and didn’t want to stay in that poor place.
“I understand her actions. It’s just that since childhood, everyone else had a mother except me. I really miss my mom, and I want to see her.” Benjamin choked, “I want to ask her why she abandoned me.”
Sure enough, as Benjamin’s voice fell, whispers erupted from the audience.
“What? She was bought?”
“Is it human trafficking or arranged marriage by the mother’s family?”
“No way it’s human trafficking. It should be an arranged marriage.”
“Even if it was an arranged marriage, the child is innocent.”
Anne, who had been waiting on the other side of the stage, heard the audience’s discussion and was so
furious that her eyes turned red. She couldn’t help but rush out before she questioned loudly, “Why don’t you
dare to tell everyone that Jay was abducted to your house?”
At once, the staff escorted Anne back.
As soon as that was said, the audience bustled with discussions.
“What? This young man’s mother was abducted?”
“Oh my, I heard that women who are abducted usually end up having a tragic life.”
*No wonder she ran away. My goodness. Who wouldn’t?”
The story of a child born to an abducted woman who sought to find his mother was the hot topic lan most
wanted for this episode.
Sensing something was wrong, Benjamin quickly added, “My dad was sentenced to prison for this. He has
known his mistake after so many years in prison. He came with me today just to see my mom and apologize
to her. He feels very bad for his ignorance and lack of legal understanding at that time.”
“I acknowledge my mistake, and I’ve served my sentence in prison, but the child is innocent,” George said
timidly.
“Even if I were sentenced to death, I would accert. After all, it’s my fault. But Benjamin is innocent! Benjamin just wants to see his mom and grandpa. I only ask for them to meet him. Let me apologize to them. I’m willing
to die if they ask me to!”
With that, George knelt down. “I beg you, Mr. Taleman. Please help Benjamin.”

lan quickly helped George up and said to the audience, “After our production team’s extensive investigation, we found Dr. Leslie Holt, who performed surgery on Benjamin’s mother.
“Dr. Holt has retired and moved abroad with her children, but we obtained her phone number and conducted a
phone interview with her.”
The conversation between the production team and Leslie played in the studio.
On the phone, Leslie said that the abducted woman left a lasting impression on her.
The woman had suffered from severe abuse for a long time, with countless visible and invisible injuries all
over her body. Her leg had been broken, and her mental condition was very poor.
Later, she died on the operating table due to massive bleeding. The patient’s mother had even knelt down and begged Leslie to save her daughter, offering any amount of money.
“That couple searched for their daughter for almost 12 years. The patient’s mother suffered from severe depression due to her daughter’s disappearance. She even tried to take her own life twice.”
