A trickle of crimson blood painted Daisys thighs, a haunting sight.
It had been a while since Daisy was wheeled into the emergency room.
Stil, the doctor had not yet come out.
Feeling very anxious, Jessie waited impatiently in the corridor.
Her face had turned pale with worry because she knew that Albert would soon come to the hospital and she had no idea how she would explain the situation to him.
Even if the whole thing had nothing to do with Jessie, it happened in her office.
For now, she couldnt think of any way out of it.
Jessie was no longer her usual willful self. She knew just how serious this issue was. Albert and his wife had gotten married because both families had something to gain from it. Hence, the child Daisy was carrying was also an important bond that connected the two families. So, there was no room for mistakes at all.

But all of a sudden, she heard some footsteps. Immediately, Jessie looked up to see who it was. It was Albert, and he was accompanied by a group of people. All of them were walking towards her direction, and Melissa was also among them.
Alberts face looked stern. She had never seen him look like this before.
Certainly, he cared a lot about Daisy! And the baby too! It took a moment before Jessie discovered that her palms were sweaty.
By now, Albert had walked up to her. He asked with a frown on his face, What happened? Jessie looked very different from her usual self.
Looking pale and anxious, she narrated everything to Albert. But she intentionally skipped over some details which were the parts she said deliberately to provoke Daisy.
