Piss Off, Alpha! You Lost Me Forever novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203: Chapter 203 Most Important Thing In The World

THIRD PERSON’S POV

The hospital room felt calmer now, but there was still a bit of tension.

Ashley sat on the bed, leaning slightly against the pillows. Her small face was still pale from the illness.

Damien stood nearby, watching her carefully, while Tiffany sat close to the edge of the bed. Her expression was soft and filled with concern.

Tiffany reached out gently, brushing Ashley’s hair back with a light touch.

“I heard you were very sick,” she said “You must have been so scared.”

Ashley nodded slightly. “I was,”

Tiffany’s expression changed, becoming more emotional, almost guilty.

This is my fault,” she said quietly.

Damien frowned. “What are you talking about?”

Tiffany shook her head slowly. Her voice trembled just enough to sound convincing. “If I hadn’t asked Damien to stay with me... if I hadn’t needed him... maybe he would have been home. Maybe Ashley wouldn’t have gotten this sick.”

Ashley immediately reacted.

“No,” she said quickly. “It’s not your fault.”

Tiffany looked up at her. “But-”

“It’s not,” Ashley insisted. “I just got sick.”

Her small hands reached out and held Tiffany’s arm gently, as if she was the one offering comfort.

Damien watched the scene silently. He didn’t interrupt.

Tiffany hesitated for a moment, then let out a soft breath, as if she was trying to hold back her emotions.

“You’re such a good girl,” she said.

Ashley smiled.

Tiffany reached for a container she had brought with her.

“I made something for you,” she said “Fish soup.”

Ashley’s eyes lit up again.

Tiffany opened the container, and the scent filled the room.

It wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t pleasant either. The smell was slightly off, like the balance of seasoning wasn’t right. It lacked the warmth and care that usually came with homemade food.

Ashley noticed. She didn’t like how the food looked. It didn’t look nice at all. For a brief moment, her expression faltered.

But then she quickly forced a smile. She didn’t want to hurt Tiffany’s feelings.

“Thank you,” she said.

Tiffany’s face brightened immediately.

“Try it,” she encouraged gently.

Ashley nodded, though there was hesitation in her movements. She took the spoon carefully andbrought it to her mouth.

She tasted it. Her reaction was subtle, but it was there. It tasted horrible.

But she didn’t say anything.

“It’s good,” she said, forcing a small smile.

Tiffany looked relieved. “Really?”

Ashley nodded. “Yes.”

She took another spoonful, even though it was clear she wasn’t enjoying it. Her movements were slow and careful, as if she was trying not to show anything.

Damien watched quietly. His eyes moved between them.

None of them noticed the figure standing just outside the door.

Sophia.

She had returned.

She had come quietly, hoping to see Ashley, hoping to check on her condition, maybe even stay for a while. But the moment she reached the door, she stopped.

Everything she saw inside froze her in place - Ashley sitting there, smiling at Tiffany, Tiffany feeding her, Damien standing nearby.

And her daughter... pretending.

Sophia saw it clearly.

She saw the way Ashley forced herself to eat, the way her small face tightened for just a second before she smiled again. She saw the effort.

Ashley wasn’t eating because she liked it. She was eating to make Tiffany happy.

Sophia’s chest tightened painfully.

She didn’t step inside. She couldn’t.

Her hand rested lightly against the door, but she didn’t push it open. Instead, she stood there, watching silently. Her heart broke with every second.
