Inch by inch, she loosened her grip on Adam’s hand as the scorching temperature of her tears stung the back of her hands.

“You’d better be mentally prepared for an operation as soon as possible—the earlier the better.

Otherwise, it’ll be your own body that’s harmed.”

Adam simply finished speaking and glanced at Cathy.

“Cathy, please take care of her.”

“Don’t worry, Adam. I’ll look after her,” Cathy replied as she looked at Shirley.

Shirley appeared to be completely dumbstruck.

As a mother of two, Cathy could fully understand Shirley’s feelings at that moment.

She knew that there was nothing she could say to comfort Shirley, so she remained silent by her side.

After a long while, Shirley abruptly broke the silence.

“Were you the one who saved me last night, when I fainted from the pain?”

Cathy nodded. “I had thought that you would’ve calmed down somewhat, so I planned to bring you back, then by chance, I found you lying on the floor.

“Thank you.”

Cathy could not believe her ears when she heard Shirley thanked her.

“I’d like to be alone for a while.”

“I’ll be right here. I won’t bother you.”
