Ash lowered her head. She wanted to tell Sofia about all the horrible things Dexter had done.

But she didn’t dare to tell the truth. She was afraid that Sofia wouldn’t be able to handle it if all the truth were to be revealed, so she could only keep it to herself.

Today, she had indeed been tricked by Dexter. She had thought that he didn’t have any more tricks up his sleeve. Never had it crossed her mind that he would keep Sofia hidden away.

This fatal trump card was firmly in Dexter’s hand.

Ash couldn’t care less about how to deal with Dexter now. All she had to do now was to take Sofia away and let her recover quickly.

She said, “Grandma, there’s no need to say anything else. I will get you discharged from the hospital. We won’t be staying here anymore. If you disagree, I will come here every day and live here, too.”

Sofia sighed repeatedly, her eyes open but her vision blurred. “Jewel, listen to me and go back. Don’t come here so often in the future.

“Your father doesn’t owe me anything. I raised him willingly, and I didn’t ask for anything in return. I know you’re unhappy for me, but Jewel, everyone has their own life. I don’t regret how things have turned out.”

Sofia spoke slowly, her voice firm.

Ash fell silent, unsure of what to say or how to persuade this stubborn old woman. She didn’t know what was going on in Sofia’s mind.

But she would not just obey. Four years ago, because of Dexter, she had already missed out on spending time with Sofia. Sofia was almost eighty years old. They didn’t have much time to hang out anymore.

No matter what, she would not leave herself with any regrets, nor would she let Sofia spend the rest of her life like this.

“Hello, I would like to ask about the discharge procedures for room 204. What documents are needed?” Ash composed herself and went to ask the hospital nurse about the process.

The nurse, wearing a mask, looked listless and said, “The patient’s family can sign and take them home. It must be the family member, with their ID card and documents proving the relationship between them. That’s all.”

“Can’t a guardian do it?” Ash had been moved back to the Turner family, and she was not related to Sofia, so she definitely could not be considered a family member.

The nurse frowned slightly, “Isn’t a guardian a family member? If there is no blood relationship, then there must be a legal basis, otherwise the patient cannot be taken away.”

“What if the patient wants to be discharged? Or what if the patient personally tells you their relationship? Is that acceptable?”

The nurse, who was busy watching a TV series and was frequently interrupted, was in a bad mood. “Miss, do you think that’s acceptable? What I just said is the way to go. Nothing else works. Our hospital has its own rules.

“All the patients here are elderly, and most of them are somewhat senile. How can their words be taken seriously? Besides, no one has visited the lady in Room 204 for ages. And suddenly you show up and want to discharge her. Who are you? Why didn’t you come earlier?” The nurse rolled her eyes unabashedly.

Ash was about to speak again but was choked by these words.

She thought, Yes, why hadn’t I come earlier?

Why did I believe Dexter the moment he told me about this?

‘Why hadn’t I noticed anything all these years?

Why was I completely unaware of the pain Sofia had endured?‘

She lowered her eyes, her mood low. “The situation is complicated at the moment, and it will take even longer to go through the guardianship adoption process. She has stomach cancer and has been living on medication all this time. Can you make an exception?”

The nurse turned off her phone and stood up angrily. “Miss, it’s not that I don’t want to make an exception for you, but if I do it for you, what about the others? Would the hospital’s rules and regulations still be necessary? Why don’t you just go directly to her family?

“I’ve said what I need to say. Please don’t bother me about this again. I’m busy.”

With that, the nurse didn’t give Ash a chance to speak and turned to leave.

Ash didn’t stay in the hospital for too long. She had to find a way to solve this problem as soon as possible and get Sofia out of the hospital.

“Ash.” Calvert and Ash met on the road.

Calvert and Ash met on the road.

Today, Dwayne Craig made an appointment with Calvert to meet a client. On the way, Calvert felt that the license plate number of the car in front was familiar. He accelerated and drove side by side and found that it was Ash.

He rolled down the window and shouted.

Ash was a little absent–minded even when she was driving. Although the window was open, she didn’t hear it. When Calvert honked the horn twice, she finally heard it.

Still on the outskirts of Riverstone, their cars stopped one after the other on the side of the road.

Calvert glanced at her, his flat tone laced with concern. “Have you been crying?”

“No, something just got in my eye,” Ash turned her head away, gently rubbing her eyes, and changed the subject. “Why are you here?”

He was still concerned about her red eyes. “What got in your eye that could make it so red? What happened?”

Ash was still feeling very sad. “It’s nothing. It’s personal and a little tricky,” she said sullenly.

“If you don’t mind, you can tell me. Maybe I can help.” Calvert was never one to meddle in other people’s business.

She lowered her eyes, and the image of Sofia’s thin and bony appearance came to mind, her nose tingling. ‘Do you know of any way to quickly become someone’s guardian?”
