Skylar froze as she realized she had a tendency to be taken advantage of. Given Miranda’s request, she didn’t know what to do about it.
After crying for about half an hour, Miranda largely spoke rationally and didn’t seem like she was sick at all.
Bathing under the afternoon sunlight, Skylar sat shoulder to shoulder with her on a bench in the hospital garden.
Miranda held onto Skylar’s hand. “Skylar when do you plan to get me out of here?”
Skylar had counted a total of six times Miranda requested to be discharged.
She replied, “That will depend on the doctor.”
“It’s so expensive to stay here. How can you even afford it? I heard my room costs a hundred thousand a month. I don’t want to put so much pressure on you. Just let me out of here.”
Skylar didn’t tell Miranda that someone else was paying for it as now wasn’t the time.
She promised Miranda that if the doctor agreed, she would arrange for her to be discharged. After all, she hoped that Miranda would be able to restart her life.
However, Miranda was currently on medical parole. Once she was cured, she would have to return to prison to finish serving her sentence.
Am I going to send her back to prison?
As she escorted Miranda back to her ward, Tobias continued to watch nearby. He was worried that Miranda wasn’t mentally stable and would potentially harm Skylar.
Although the doctor’s report stated that Miranda had recovered her mental capacities, Tobias was still worried about eventualities.
Skylar finally left the ward at night. Time passed quickly as both mother and daughter had a lot to catch up on.
Before Skylar left, she promised Miranda that she would ask the doctor.
