“Is my sister out of danger now?” Timothy asked The doctor was visibly relieved as he announced, “The patient’s condition is stable now, but she is still weak and will need to be kept in the ICU for observation.”
“Thank goodness! She’s alright,” Stefania exclaimed in relief. Her heart finally settled back in place. “However, even though her condition is stable, she was injured in the crash and her fibula was broken. It will take at least six months before she fully recovers,” the doctor continued reporting.

“I told you, didn’t I? Tess is a blessed person. She’ll definitely be fine.” She hugged Timothy and smiled as she was truly glad that Tessa’s life was no longer in danger. Timothy nodded fervently.
