Chapter 141: Unexpected Encounter at the Hospital

The silence around them was almost unbearable, with Ivy Grant's rapid breathing causing her chest to rise and fall.

Aria Grant looked at Ivy in her arms, noticing how her daughter looked like a helpless little kitten or puppy. The disputes among adults should never affect children!

Taking a deep breath, Aria adjusted her own breathing before speaking to Ivy, "Darling, you didn't do anything wrong. Why do you keep saying you're sorry?"

Hearing her mother comforting her, Ivy blinked her eyes and asked for confirmation, "Is what Mommy saying really true?"

Aria didn't speak, but her face read, "You silly child!"

...

Adult matters indeed should not be carried by children, but sometimes adults may not even be able to handle them themselves. As of now, Aria's health was deteriorating and, although the medication was not working well, she had to visit the hospital to check on her condition.

Knock, knock —

Aria had made an appointment in advance, so she knocked directly on the door.
