If Claire found out about her family's situation now, she'd be worried sick!
After hesitating for a moment, Tarquin decided to keep Cecil's information to himself.
"Alright, I'll look into it and let you know what I find."
"Okay."
Elysia said goodbye to Blossom and Hollis and headed to the pediatric ward.
Inside the room, Maria was awake.
Claire sat by the bed, her eyes red as she gently caressed her daughter's face, whispering softly, "Maria, you nearly gave mommy a heart attack. If anything happened to you, mommy wouldn't want to go on. I'm so sorry, Maria. It's mommy's fault for not being able to protect you or take care of you properly."
The little girl, with an IV needle in one hand, reached up with her other hand to gently wipe away Claire's tears, "Don't cry, mommy. It's not your fault."
Claire's voice choked up, "Mommy won't cry. Are you in pain, Maria?"
The little girl, wise beyond her years, shook her head, "No pain. Are you, mommy?"
"As long as you're not in pain, mommy's fine."
Maria blinked up at Claire, "Mommy, can't we leave daddy?"
Claire froze, then her smile faded and her brows furrowed, "No!"
Maria, sensing her mother's displeasure, bit her lip and didn't dare to speak further.
Elysia walked in just in time to catch the tail end of their conversation.
Elysia was puzzled. Why would Emmett's sister want to leave her father?
They say daughters are their father's past life lovers, and the bond between father and daughter is often stronger than that between father and son.
Why would she want to leave her father?
