Willow summoned the gynecologist in the end.
After a thorough examination, the doctor gave his diagnosis. “Mr. George, the baby is still safe for now. However, the mother cannot take any more risks. It’s best that she stays in bed for the whole month to ensure that she gets sufficient rest.
“One month?”
Willow widened her eyes in disbelief.
She has to be on bed rest for that long? So…
She turned around to look apprehensively at the man who was wiping his nose with a tissue.
The man, however, seemed unfazed. After wiping off the blood on his nose, he tossed away the bloodstained tissue and walked over to Willow’s side.
“Then make sure she stays in bed for one whole month!”
“Huh?”
Taken aback by the instruction, the doctor lifted his head to regard the man, “Mr. George, do you mean…”
Solomon replied with an impassive expression, “She’s too used to going out and about. Unless you immobilize her for the time being, she will never stay in bed as told.”
Both the doctor and Willow were at a loss for words.
An awkward silence stretched between the three of them for what felt like an eternity before the doctor decided to break the silence and nodded. “All right then, Mr. George.”
Then, he injected Sabrina, who was still unconscious on the bed, with a type of medicine.
After the doctor was done, Willow noticed that it was already late and got ready to leave.
“Solomon, I’ll get going then. I’ll be back tomorrow, though.”
“It’s all right. You can just stay here for the night.”
Solomon did not go along with her suggestion like he usually did.
Instead, he fetched his coat from the coat hanger and draped it over himself. Then, he took his prescriptions and car keys from the coffee table.
Willow was stumped. “Huh? Are you asking me to stay here while you… Are you heading out?”
Solomon nodded. “Yes, I’m coming back tomorrow.”
His words did not leave any room for Willow to protest. Willow could even feel the murderous aura coming off of him.
Where is he going?
She stared blankly at him.
In the end, she still could not summon the courage to ask where he was going, much less tell him that Sasha was coming tomorrow.
Meanwhile, at Turlen.
Devin had not been able to leave the hospital for the past few days. His aunt and uncle who were supposed to reach the hospital in the morning did not show up on time as they claimed that their flight was delayed.
“Devin, could you stay there longer to take care of your cousin? We’re already at the airport, but the staff in charge told us that the flight had been delayed. So there’s really nothing we can do.”
“That’s right, Devin. She’s your cousin, after all. Could you just stay for one more night? Hmm?”
