Chapter: 1098
“Is everything set for the surgery?"
“Indeed, it's scheduled a week from now. After that, we'll handle the medication injections carefully. I'll be right beside you," he murmured, his hand caressing her hair in a comforting gesture.
“Will our babies be okay? Won't the surgery hurt them?" She couldn't help but voice her concern for their unborn children.
Caught off guard, Theodore averted his gaze.
“Fear not. Our babies will be fine.”
Ariana had the impression that Theodore was harboring some guilt. She took his face in her hands, lifted his face, and said, "Really?"
Theodore was afraid Ariana would suspect him, so he didn't waste any time. Thus, he Looked into her eyes and said, "It's true."
At long Last, Ariana felt some relief.
She murmured while in Theodore's arms, “But I do not wish to return to the hospital so soon. I'm good to go now. Let's rest at home for a little Longer before returning to the hospital, all right?"
Theodore felt compelled to grant her request after taking a Look at the person in his arms. However, he hesitated. He rubbed her head tenderly and sighed quietly to show his worry.
"But the hospital is a safer place. You'll have immediate access to medical care if you have another episode."
“I'LL get PTSD if I'm kept in the hospital all the time! Do you not have any pity for me? Staying in the hospital is unsettling for me.
Alright, how about we just stay at home?" Like a pampered brat, Ariana stared pitifully at him.
When he heard her gentle tone, Theodore conceded, saying, “Okay, you can stay a few more days, but you have to go to the hospital as soon as you feel uncomfortable."
“Okay!"" Ariana cheerfully agreed, kissed Theodore on the cheek, and bolted.
At the same time, Horace called and Theodore answered. As soon as the phone was connected, the other party said, “Boss, Helen has escaped!"
The news didn't faze Theodore; he calmly returned the things he had packed.
Ever since discovering Helen's collusion with Jasper, he realized she was a real wild card, more unpredictable than he had imagined.
With unwavering confidence, he gave Horace a few instructions, urging him to intensify the search.
After dinner, Ariana relaxed in the garden, savoring the gentle breeze and the delicate fragrance of flowers, feeling completely at peace.
