Chapter 71: A World-Class Tragic Romance Drama [Part 1]

On the screen in the sky, the scene continued to play.

Uchiha Mikoto, who had finally successfully given birth to her child, felt her vision go black and passed out. When she regained consciousness, she felt two people walking beside her.

"It seems that what happened before was just my imagination. Fugaku and Itachi should be happy about the birth of this child..." Uchiha Mikoto thought to herself as she opened her eyes. However, instead of Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Itachi, she saw two nurses sorting things out with their backs to her.

"Wow, the Uchiha clan's clan head's wife is really unlucky. She actually encountered such scum..." the nurse on the left whispered. "She's been unconscious for two days, and Uchiha's clan head hasn't come to check on her. She's lying here all alone!"

"Yeah, not only did he not come to see his wife, but he also didn't care about his newborn son. It's like that son isn't even his!" the nurse on the right also muttered quietly. "In the past few days, only her eldest son came to see her. The newborn little prince is also being taken care of by the eldest son. The Uchiha clan's clan head's wife has fallen to such a low point. It's really unpredictable!"

"As a member of a wealthy and noble family, these things are all normal. Compared to a pregnant woman, of course, those young and beautiful girls are more attractive to the Uchiha clan head!" the nurse on the left sneered.

"That's right!" the nurse on the right had a gossipy expression on her face. "Let me tell you, I once saw the Uchiha clan head just finish talking to the clan head's wife who was about to give birth in the ward. When he left the ward, he hugged a young girl. The intimacy between them, you haven't seen it!"

"As far as I know, many nurses in our hospital also have a relationship with the Uchiha clan head. Several times, they deliberately went to the ward together, saying that they were checking on the clan head's wife who was due to give birth, but in fact, they were seeking excitement. They let several people distract the clan head's wife's attention, while the rest of them flirted with the Uchiha clan head..."

"What a fool. Her husband is openly flirting with other girls, and she's still clueless."

The two nurses finished tidying up the ward and left without noticing that Uchiha Mikoto on the hospital bed had opened her eyes.

Uchiha Mikoto lay stiffly on the hospital bed, feeling like she had lost her soul. What did she hear? Her husband, who professed his love for her, had an affair, and even flirted with a nurse in front of her in the ward?!

Two tears flowed from Uchiha Mikoto's eyes, and the three tomoe Sharingan quietly appeared, but Uchiha Mikoto didn't notice.

"This is slander, it's defamation!" Uchiha Fugaku gritted his teeth. Especially the look Uchiha Shisui gave him, he really wanted to hit someone.

"I know!" Uchiha Itachi's face was expressionless. He naturally knew that everything in the scene was fake. At the time, his father was almost always by his mother's side during her due date. When she gave birth, his father stayed outside the delivery room, and after Sasuke was born, his father stayed by his mother's side. He was there for all of it. But even though he knew it was fake, he still felt uncomfortable. The scene was just too realistic.

"Uncle Fugaku, don't worry. This is inevitable. Sacrifice yourself for Aunt Mikoto's Mangekyo Sharingan. Her memories are sealed by me. We'll just release the illusion later!" Sakura comforted Uchiha Fugaku. After all, all of this was just a created illusion, and it was all fake.

Uchiha Fugaku was unhappy, but he could only grit his teeth and continue watching.

"No, I have to ask Fugaku in person..." In the scene, Uchiha Mikoto's eyes flashed with determination. She didn't believe that Uchiha Fugaku would do such a thing. She had to find out what was going on.

"Hmph, see that? Mikoto always believes in me..." Uchiha Fugaku heard Uchiha Mikoto's murmurs in the scene and felt happy. He raised his eyebrows smugly at Sakura.

In the scene, the door to the ward was pushed open, and five-year-old Uchiha Itachi walked in with a small baby in his arms.

"Itachi is here..." Uchiha Mikoto saw Uchiha Itachi and forced a smile. "Bring your little brother over and let me take a look!"

"Mother, why is my little brother this color?!" Uchiha Itachi pursed his lips and brought Sasuke over. The scene showed a dark-skinned baby, a true Hidden Cloud Village bloodline.

"Why did Sasuke turn out like this?!" There was no movement in the scene, but Uchiha Itachi outside the scene couldn't take it anymore. The baby in the scene looked like Sasuke had just been born, but what was with the skin color?

"This...artistic creation, artistic creation, there's nothing we can do!" Sakura smiled awkwardly. She had arranged this plot to make Uchiha Mikoto feel despair and pain so that she could activate her Mangekyo Sharingan.

"Hmph, I'll endure it. For Mikoto's Mangekyo Sharingan..."

Uchiha Fugaku wanted to fight Sakura desperately, but he realized that everything was fake and that his ultimate goal was to help Uchiha Mikoto improve her strength. He had to endure it.

"He's not your brother..."

In the scene, Uchiha Mikoto was still in shock and hadn't spoken yet. The door to the sickroom was pushed open forcefully, and Uchiha Fugaku appeared, furious.

"Husband, what did you say? Sasuke is our son, isn't he?!"

Uchiha Mikoto widened her eyes in disbelief, but then she realized that they hadn't even decided on a name for their son yet. Why did they call him Sasuke? It didn't matter.

Sakura breathed a sigh of relief, glad that she had used the Mind Stone to fool them.

"How could I, Uchiha Fugaku, have a son from the Hidden Cloud Village?!"

In the scene, Uchiha Fugaku's face was cold, and his eyes were full of alienation and disgust as he looked at Uchiha Mikoto.

"Husband, I don't know why, but Sasuke really is your child!"

Tears welled up in Uchiha Mikoto's eyes. What was going on? She didn't understand why her child had turned out like this. Why didn't even Fugaku believe her anymore?!
