The Kiss that Sparked it All (Ellinor and Theo) novel Chapter 2482

Chapter 2482 

Regret gnawed at Tessa’s insides, anger simmering just beneath the surface. Why, oh why, had she been so blind, smothering her heart and soul into such a family? 

If only she had spared a sliver of love for Ivy, maybe she wouldn’t be lying here sick and ignored. 

Finn and Clara dodged her like she was the plague, afraid of catching a whiff of her 

illness. 

Ivy let out a sigh of relief. With Balfour waiting outside, a spring of levity bubbled within her. “I’m doing quite well, though I reckon that’s not what you want to hear. But since I’ve left the Dunhill residence, every single day has been a step up from the life I once knew.”

Tessa could see the change in Ivy. 

If she had to pay the price for the wrongs of her earlier life, she hoped with all her heart that Ivy, her only daughter, could have a smooth sailing life, just as she yearned for. That she would never return to the Dunhill family, ever. 

Sadly, she lacked the right to voice such wishes now, her strength waning. 

Tessa closed her eyes, tears escaping down her cheeks, and Ivy could only scoff at the absurdity of it all. 

“Let me ask you a few questions. If it’s a ‘yes, blink twice. For ‘no,’ just once.” 

Tessa opened her eyes to face her daughter. 

“Has someone been arranged to take care of you?” 

She blinked twice. 

Someone to take care of her? Then why were they not here in this room, attending to her every need? Tessa had to be taken care of 24/7! 

“Have Finn and Clara visited you?” 

The question stung Tessa, and she blinked once, her tears flowing anew. 

Ivy thought she would feel a sense of vindication seeing this. Tessa had poured her life into that man and his daughter, and now that she was in need, not a soul cared to tend to 

her. 

“Alright, no more tears, they’re not good for your health. I’ve got other matters to attend to, so I won’t linger here. As for the rest, I’ll see about transferring you to a better hospital and find someone to look after you. This place is just not up to snuff.” 

Deep down, Tessa knew that Finn and Clara hadn’t given her a second thought; otherwise, why would she be in this rundown clinic?

The hospital was lifeless, let alone capable of curing her. 

She had overheard the doctors-there was hope for recovery in a proper hospital, with daily rehabilitation and therapy.
