"Robert made it through the critical period."
On the other side of the line, Mike was ecstatic.
"That’s wonderful! Let’s have a party to celebrate once I’m back!"
"What’s there to celebrate about?" Chad’s voice was chilling.
"Shea’s dead. She sacrificed herself to save Robert." Mike thought he had heard wrongly.
"Hurry up and get back here, Mike! I can’t leave Avery alone, but I need to find my boss," Chad said in
a strained voice. "This is a huge blow to him!"
At the Foster mansion, Elliot locked himself inside Shea’s room.
Earlier, someone had sent over a package. Inside of it was Shea’s phone.
The phone was filled with selfies and videos of Shea.He looked through every photo and watched
every video.
Her lively smile made it seem like she was right in front of him, but she would never again appear
before him.
During the years that Elliot had taken care of her, Shea was his spiritual support.
That was because he could only guarantee that nobody would pick on her if he lived a good life.
However, she ended up leaving him behind in such a cruel way.
When Mrs. Cooper rushed over, she saw Mrs. Scarlet in tears.
Mrs. Scarlet had taken care of Shea ever since she was a child.Shea was afraid of strangers, and Mrs.
Scarlet was the one who spent the most time with her every single day.She treated Shea like her own
daughter. How could she possibly accept that this was the end?
"Shea was too kind." Mrs. Coope handed a napkin to Mrs. Scarlet.
"The fact that she made this decision behind Avery’s and Master Elliot’s back means that she knew
very well that neither of them would let her donate blood, even if that meant losing Robert."
Mrs. Scarlet was beyond devastated. "How stupid of her! She never thought about herself! It’s all my
fault for now stopping her when she called me! Who would go pray on top of some hill in the middle of
the night?! If I’d stopped her then, she wouldn’t have hidden away!"
At this point, Mrs. Scarlet cried in agony, "I want proof! If Shea’s really dead, then I want to see her
body!"
Mrs. Cooper’s brows furrowed. "This is Wesley’s fault. How could he just go with whatever she said?
He knows about Shea’s condition! Sigh!"
After a good cry, Mrs. Scarlet’s reason gradually began to return.
"You should go take care of Avery."
"She didn’t come home tonight," Mrs. Cooper said.
"How could she handle something like this? It’d be fine if Robert recovered, but if any problems pop up
later on…"
"No way! Robert will be fine! If anything happened to him…" At this point, Mrs. Scarlet was suddenly
out of breath.
"Master Elliot’s luck can’t possibly get any worse!"
Over at the hospital, Avery was sitting on a bench in the hallway. Her expression was blank and her
eyes were lifeless. It was as if she was an empty shell.She had spent every second of every day
hoping for Robert to get better soon.
Now that Robert’s condition had improved, she felt even more gutted.She did not know with what
emotions she should be facing this absurd reality.
Just like night, she was sitting here with Elliot. They were filled with worry over Robert’s condition, but
at least they could depend on each other.
Now, Avery felt as if she was indebted to him!It was a debt that could never be repaid. She could never
pay him back with Robert’s life, because he was Elliot’s son, too.
This strange and complicated hitch left her feeling deeply powerless!
The next morning arrived in the blink of an eye.
After thoroughly examining Robert, the doctor approached Avery and said, "Robert’s in stable condition
now, Miss Tate. You can go home and rest. We’ll let you know if anything happens again."
Avery nodded her head, then got up from the bench.
"I haven’t told Mr. Foster about Robert’s condition, Miss Tate. I heard that he was very upset right now,
so I didn’t want to bother him," said the doctor hesitantly.
"Please talk to him! No matter what happened, the fact that Robert’s now out of danger is something
worth being happy about."
