The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 810

"You brat, you've spilled all my embarrassing secrets." Vivian nudged Ferris playfully.

But I sharply noticed that her eyes had already turned red.

It seemed Ferris wasn't lying. Vivian was probably the type to tear up easily, and if I cried any longer, she would likely join me.

I quickly wiped away my tears and said earnestly, "Thank you, Mom, for worrying about us."

"We're family, there's no need for thanks." Vivian sniffled, forcing down the moisture in her eyes before grabbing her purse and heading for the door. "Alright, I really have to go. We'll talk later if anything comes up."

This time, she didn't linger and quickly left Eden Gardens.

After she left, the once-bustling room fell instantly quiet. Ferris looked down at me and reached out to pinch my nose. "My Little Rabbit turned into a crybaby today. Your eyes are red, and your nose is red. You're so cute."

"You're the crybaby," I pushed him away and turned to go wash my face.

In the mirror, my eyes and nose really were red. I actually did look like a little rabbit, and a pitifully crying one at that.

Thinking about the scene just now, I was too embarrassed to even look at my reflection, splashing water on my face to cool down.

When I stepped out of the bathroom, I heard Ferris on the phone. "How did she get away? Wasn't she already through security? How could she slip out?"

I couldn't hear what the person on the other end said, but Ferris's expression grew increasingly dark. "Then keep a close eye on her and report her movements to me. Also, remind the staff at Greenwood Care Center not to let her in under any circumstances."

The more I listened, the more curious I became.

"Who got away? Why do you need to monitor them and ban them from the care center?" I asked casually as I sat beside him after he hung up.
