After the person on the other end of the phone received this call, they hung up without saying anything.
The nurse was curious. When she was wondering if she had been scammed, she received notification on her phone that she had received an impressive sum of money.
The nurse was delighted because she could buy the bag she had been eyeing for a long time now.
Then, she placed all of Lillian’s medical records on the table according to the order she received from the person who transferred her the money. After she did all of that, she closed the door and left.
Less than a minute after she left, a tall and upright figure appeared at the door of the ward.
The man did not hesitate before pushing the door open and walking into the ward.
After Madeline left, Lillian stopped paying attention to what was going on inside the ward. She
was sitting on the sofa on the balcony, as quiet as a delicate doll as she looked out at the scenery.
However, when she heard someone pushing the door open and coming in, she turned her tiny body to look over.
Fabian’s approaching footsteps slowed down when Lillian looked over to him.
He was wearing a brown coat and a face mask. He had a bouquet of powder blue baby breaths in his hands. In his other hand, he was carrying a glass jar and inside the jar were colorful candies.
Lillian looked at Fabian and blinked her bright, huge eyes.
She supported herself using the sofa to stand up. However, since she had been receiving daily injections, she was very weak. It was very difficult for her to stand up.
Fabian could tell what Lillian was thinking, so he quickly recomposed himself and walked in front of Lillian.
When Lillian saw Fabian suddenly approaching her, she lifted her little head and looked straight into Fabian’s eyes.
She wanted to say something, but in the end, she still could not utter a word.
Fabian frowned and squatted slowly to hand the bouquet to Lillian.
Lillian loved baby breaths, so she slowly lifted her tiny hands to gently hold the bouquet Fabian was giving her out of kind intentions.
