Sylvia's POV:
Flora and I were worried about the wolf pup, so we hurriedly took it to the hospital.
I realized why Rin had left the wolf pup here. It was too weak and couldn't survive in the wild in such a condition.
Rin trusted me and hoped I could save her child.
Flora and I sat outside the examination room, waiting for the result. We were chatting and soon got to talking about Warren.
"What are you going to do with Warren?" I asked. The two seemed to get along with each other. Warren was still taking care of Flora as before. It looked like the two had gone back to how they were.
Flora pouted. "I haven't figured it out yet. I'm going to let nature take its course."
I wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. "Look, you can't hide it for too long. Even if you don't tell him the truth, he will find out when your belly gets bigger."
"Let's wait until then. I've thought about it. He is the father of my child. That wouldn't change even if I don't tell him now about the pregnancy." Flora shrugged nonchalantly.
Just then, the doctor walked out with the little wolf pup in his arms. Flora and I hurriedly sprang up to our feet and strutted toward him.
"Well, the condition of the pup's hind legs is irreversible," the doctor said, letting out a weary sigh. "We will have to amputate the legs and replace them with artificial limbs."
"Does the surgery involve any risks?" I was a little worried. After all, the wolf pup was still young.
"Well, we can't perform the surgery for the time being. The wolf pup is still young and malnourished to endure the procedure. It has to stay in the incubator for a few weeks until we revive its health with the aid of nutrient injection," the doctor said as he handed the little wolf pup to us.
I kissed it lovingly and decided to name it Ian.
Ultimately, we left the pup in the hospital with a heavy heart.
Flora and I had dinner together. Then, I went to see Rufus.
When I arrived at his palace, Rufus was still in his study, handling political affairs with councilors. I estimated he would be there for a long time.
Since Rufus hadn't eaten anything yet, I decided to go to the kitchen and cook his favorite dishes.
I made three dishes: spaghetti with Bolognese sauce, roasted vegetables, and beef stew with carrots. I also fried pumpkin balls for snacks.
However, it still felt incomplete. Therefore, I started making creme brulee. Although Rufus didn't like sweets, I thought he wouldn't mind having dessert with minimal sugar.
