Can you mend my broken heart?

"What?", Katherine exclaimed in surprise.

"Why would anyone delete all the surveillance data? Is there anything weird going on there?", Katherine asked David.

"Well I had found something, maybe you should see this", David said and showed the same surveillance video that he had sent to Raymond.

Katherine saw the video and her eyes were wide open.

"Does my Ray know about it?", she asked after taking a pause.

"Yes, he does. Yesterday late night itself I had sent it to him", David said.

"But my concern is why would they wipe the data clean. Either there was something that we missed, or they didn't want us to see this", David said with a worried look on his face.

"Let's go to his place asap", Katherine said and then fastened her seat-belt.

While David drove to Raymond's place, Katherine plugged in a C-type cable to the joint of her sunglasses and started copying the recorded content. She uploaded a copy of it on her Google Drive and then sent a copy to David as well, as a backup.

She wasn't sure how her brother would react to the fake baby news. He was already going through so much pain and this could be a fatal blow to him, so when she entered his house, she tried to gauge his mood.

He looked like he had a sleepless rough night which she was already expecting him to have.

"Are you ok?", Katherine asked upon seeing her brother.

"How did it go? Why you guys were not picking up my calls? Could you find anything?", Raymond asked impatiently.

Katherine looked at David all worried and then went and sat next to Raymond.

"You need to see this, but promise me that you will not go back to your shell after seeing this", Katherine requested him as she selected the file to be played on her phone.

"She didn't have her dinner yesterday".

"What? Who?", Katherine asked in surprise after hearing Raymond speak.

"She hasn't eaten her breakfast too. My Akira is still sulking in her room because of this hypothetical kid of mine".

Raymond said and sighed and then spoke again,

"So you better play this video ASAP".

"How do you know that the kid is hypothetical?", Katherine asked with her eyes wide open in surprise.

Raymond didn't even reply and just played the video.

There was utter silence in the room. The only voice that echoed in the room was of Dr. Brooks who was boasting about the fake ultrasound video.

The video ended and Raymond was sitting there in silence, looking at the phone screen which had gone blank.

"Ray, say something !!! See whatever happened, happened for good right. Maybe destiny has something better in store for you? Maybe you are destined to have a kid with Akira. So it's ok if this didn't work out. I know you loved the baby more than anything else in the world but you have to look at the bright side Ray. Talk to me Ray, talk to me", Katherine said and kept tugging onto his arm and was worried to death to see his brother suddenly devoid of any emotions.

Raymond took a deep breath and then said,

"I knew it, Katherine. I knew that there was no baby. I had a hunch but I needed concrete proof for it and this is the gold mine that I needed. I don't know how I can thank you for going through all the trouble", Raymond said and looked at Katherine with warm eyes.

"I do not understand what is going on here. Did you text him about it already David?", Katherine asked looking at David.

"David didn't tell me. I had a gut feeling about it. Remember the night when I had asked Scarlett to move to the villa? When I had entered the kitchen I saw that there was a coffee mug in the sink. And it was not the first time I had seen her taking coffee after coming back. Earlier when she was pregnant for real, she used to avoid coffee as it is not good for baby's health. Plus when I had gone into her room, I saw a used strip of gonadotrophin in the dustbin. So I just had a hunch", Raymond said and leaned back on the sofa.

"They why didn't you expose her then?", Katherine asked.

"Because I needed concrete proof and this, that you have given me is concrete proof. Plus I couldn't expose her without finding out who was behind all this, because just then I had information about the massive bank transaction into her account", Raymond said and justified his actions.

"By the way, Shawn has given me additional proof of the abortion and the gonadotrophin prescription given by Dr. Brooks", Katherine said and handed over the file to Raymond. Then she glanced at Raymond once again.

"Well haven't you become smarter !!!", she said and smiled and then got up from her seat.

"I will go back to my clinic then. You guys carry on", Katherine said and left.

Then Raymond looked at David, who still bore a worried expression on his face,

"David I am totally fine. I always had a hunch about this. No need to worry. It's not going to affect me", Raymond said and tried to ease him out.

"I am now not worried about you. I am worried about Miss Katherine", David said and came forward.

"Dr. Brooks did an ultrasound on Miss Katherine. I tried to come as fast as I could to interrupt, but she had already started at that time. I am pretty sure Dr. Brooks would know that we were lying and maybe she will inform the other party about it. So I am worried for her safety", David said.

Raymond heard him and still stayed calm.

"Did you even hear what I said, Mr. Raymond?", David asked all surprised.

"Don't worry Dr. Brooks can't find a thing", Raymond said and crossed his legs on the sofa calmly.

David's furrows deepened when he heard Raymond.

"Katherine has a severe case of Polycystic ovaries and that's why I had requested her to help us in gathering proof against Dr. Brooks. So don't worry, she can't find a thing or doubt on us because of the ultrasound", Raymond said with a straight calm face.

David was shocked to hear it. Now he understood the real reason why Katherine looked all pale when she came out of Dr. Brooks cabin.

He paused for a while and then he asked,

"Is that the reason why Trent divorced her?", David asked.

Raymond sighed and said,

"Yes".

"Then what about Kate?", David asked.

Raymond looked up at David and sighed. He paused for a while and then said,

"She is adopted !!!"
