Avery suddenly did not have the courage to enter the room.She did not know how to face Tammy.
Tammy might have been afraid of giving birth, but it took a long period of internal struggle for her to decide that she wanted children.
In the end, she became infertile.
It must have been such a giant blow to her! It must also have been a massive blow to Jun!
"This has nothing to do with you, Avery.Aunt Mary doesn't blame, and neither will Tammy." Elliot said softly as he reached out to wipe Avery's tears off her face.
"Go on in and talk to her."
"I don't know what to say...Elliot, I don't know how to talk to her..." Avery sobbed.
"I can't face her like this."
At that moment, the patient's room door suddenly burst open.
When Mary saw the two of them standing at the door, she said in surprise, "When did you two get here? Did you already get discharged from the hospital so soon, Avery?" Avery quickly composed herself, then said, ''Yes, I've been discharged.That's why I came to see Tammy.I won't bother her if she's asleep."
"She's not sleeping right now.She made me come out here to see if Jun was still around," said Mary as she glanced around.
"He just left,"' Avery said.
"Alright.Wait right now.I'll go in and let Tammy know you're here!" Mary turned and walked back into the room.
When Mary reappeared moments later, she gazed awkwardly at Elliot and said, "Tammy only wants to see Avery."
Elliot nodded in understanding.
The moment Avery entered the room, her eyes instantly reddened when they met Tammy's.
"Don't cry." Tammy had a forced smile on her face.
" I'm still alive!"
"I'm sorry, Tammy..."
