“Uncle Sebastian, this is Mommy’s hospital.” The girl’s childlike voice echoed loudly when the duo stepped into the hospital. Immediately everyone whirled around to look at them.
Oh my goodness! This child is unbelievably pretty!
Not only was she dressed in a pink mini skirt, but there was also a khaki-colored hat in the shape of a pair of pointed ears perched on the little girl’s head. Her skin was as white as snow, and her large eyes gleamed each time she blinked, making them look like stars on a night sky. At the same time, the onlookers were dying to pinch her adorable cheeks.
Her adorable appearance resembled a porcelain doll.
Who on earth is she? How could there be such an adorable little girl?
Stunned by her cuteness, the onlookers shifted their attention to the man holding her hand.
A single glance at the man stole their breath away.
Compared to the little girl, the man was dressed subtly. Yet, his simple clothing did not affect his handsome features as an air of elegance hung around the man’s tall figure.
Compared to the little girl, his striking looks garnered more dazed stares.
Upon their entrance, the entire lobby fell silent.
Back upstairs, Sasha and Solomon were clueless about the events that occurred downstairs.
They made their way towards the lift. Feeling downhearted, Sasha trailed after Solomon’s heels with her head hung low.

Just as they reached the lift, Solomon came to a screeching halt. Caught off guard, Sasha collided against his back.
“Solomon, what are you doing? Why did you stop out of the blue?” Sasha asked as she rubbed her aching nose.
Yet, Solomon remained silent.
It felt like he was nailed to the spot. His widened eyes were fixated intensely on something at the hospital lobby as his back stiffened. How is this possible? Why is he here? Isn’t he in Jadeborough?
In the mere span of seconds, Solomon’s mood took a drastic turn.
“Solomon?” Sasha called out again. From her position, Solomon’s back obscured her vision of the lobby. It left her confused by the man’s lack of response. Why is he not moving?
As her patience frayed, Sasha tried to step forward. Her sudden movement seemed to snap Solomon out of his shocked daze as he thrust his arm out to block her path.
“You-”
