"No. Look at the reflection. Isn't she someone wrapped in love and happiness?" Rosalynn teased.

Maggie blushed and rose.

“Alright, Rosalynn. Enjoy your meal. I'1L prepare the soup for Sanford.”

Chuckling, Rosalynn returned to her breakfast.

Thoughts of Sanford's influential background surfaced in her mind, and her smile dimmed.

Should Maggie choose to be with Sanford, she'd face many challenges.

Sanford's family would be a significant hurdle.

At the hospital

After sending the text to Maggie, Sanford seemed to relax.

Eyeing his mother, who emerged from the restroom, he suggested, "Mom, maybe you should head home now. Your constant presence here is somewhat disruptive, and I can't rest well."

Janiya shot Sanford a glare.

"So eager to send me off. Are you hoping for that woman to return to your side?"

Sanford took a deep breath, clutching his chest wound.

"Mom, if you want to impede my recovery, you can continue your lecture here."

Janiya gave in.

"Fine, I'm leaving. Rest well. I'll assign a servant to take care of you.”

Sanford responded, "You haven't informed Dad about my hospitalization, have you? His health isn't great. Don't Let him worry about me."

Janiya glanced at him and softened her tone.

"Since you understand that he isn't in good health, you shouldn't be causing trouble. If you don't want us to worry about you, behave appropriately and stop entertaining thoughts about that woman."

Her son was dutiful.

As parents, they didn't concern themselves with most of his matters.

However, his marital choices posed a significant problem that they needed to handle.
