Chapter 1529
Tm sorry for making you so distraught.
'And sorry for hurting your daughter...'
Even though Edwin really hated the fact that Joanne had a daughter with Patrick, he was simultaneously depressed and chagrined.
Why couldn't Tail be his daughter?
Edwin's voice was low.
A breeze blew in through the window and drowned out his voice.
Joanne woke up with the urge to pee.
She found herself lying in a soft bed.
It was dark around her. Through the gap in the curtains, Joanne could vaguely see the flashing colorful lights on the skyscrapers outside the window.
Joanne thought, 'Why was I asleep? Tail is having an IV. Is there anyone accompanying her?'
Joanne panicked, lifted the blanket, and strode toward Tail's room.
In the silent corridor outside the VIP ward on the top floor, even a pin drop could be heard.
As Joanne got close to Tail's room, she heard a deep, charming voice reading the story The Little Prince...
"... I will live on one of the stars, smiling, and every night when you look up at the stars, you will see all the stars smiling..."
Joanne felt it was strange.
The hand holding the door handle paused and then slowly pushed open the door.
Joanne saw Edwin sitting on the edge of Tail's bed with a storybook, reading it to her in a cadenced voice.
Joanne thought that Tail had woken up, but when she looked closely, she saw that Tail was still sleeping peacefully, and even her knitted brows had relaxed.
