Chapter 33: Alex Takes Care of Amelia

The household staff greeted Amelia when she returned from the hospital. Word must have gotten around the house.

She was happy the baby was fine. The doctor suggested a day or two of rest and to avoid stressful situations. It was mid-morning.

“I’m going to shower and go to work,” Isabel said as they were just inside the door. “Do you need anything before I go?”

Amelia could only marvel at the change in Isabel. She hoped it was truly a transformation and that it would stay. It couldn’t hurt to have Isabel as a friend. “I think I’ll be fine. Thanks.”

Alex hadn’t left her side except to get the car when she was leaving the hospital.

Isabel nodded and left them.

Amelia studied Alex. “What happened there?”

“I just assured her that she was loved,” Alex said.
