Exhaustion overwhelmed me, and I nodded without a word.
Noras expression softened with sympathy. She leaned closer, her voice was low and soothing. Dont worry. On the way here, I talked to the bodyguards. They assured me that Caleb is tough. They didnt hit any critical areas, so he should be alright.
Her words sparked hope in me, and I looked up, eyes wide. Really? I asked.
Nora nodded resolutely. Yes, I double-checked with several of them, and they all confirmed it!
A wave of relief washed over me, but as my gaze fell on the closed doors of the emergency room, my anxiety returned.
As long as Caleb was in there, peace was elusive. All I wanted was to be by his side.
Unable to convince me, Nora sighed and stayed by my side silently.
I glanced at Nora, recognizing her genuine kindness towards both me and Abby.
The thought of Abby cleared the fog in my mind.

I turned to Nora and asked, Wheres Abby? Whos looking after her if youre here in the hospital?
Nora quickly reassured me, Dont worry. Mr. Pierce knew youd be concerned, so he arranged for the butler and two of the most experienced maids to care for her. Theyre very capable. Abby is in good hands.
I frowned, concern creeping into my voice. But youve always been the one to look after Abby. Now that neither of us is with her, Im worried she might feel scared.
Nora pulled out her phone, trying to ease my worries. Abbys doing well, really. Before I left the manor, the butler mentioned you can video call to see her whenever youd like.

She found the butlers contact and asked, Would you like to see Abby now? I can make a video call.
Eagerly, I nodded and urged her, Yes, call now. I need to see her.
Although I felt slightly embarrassed to disturb Nora and the butler, my mind was in turmoil. The urgency to confirm my childs safety overwhelmed me.
I was unable to meet Caleb in person at that moment. So, the least I could do was see our child through the video.
The call connected swiftly, revealing Abbys rosy, plump cheeks on the screen, The sight of Abby laughing heartily brought me immense relief, and tears streamed down my face without restraint.
It seemed the bond between mother and daughter was profound. Abbys smile vanished the moment she noticed my tears. Her expression turned sorrowful, as if she was on the brink of crying herself.
I quickly averted my gaze, unable to bear seeing Abby distressed. I requested Nora to end the call.
As long as Abby was safe, that was all that mattered to me. I didnt want her to feel sorrowful as well.
After collecting myself, I turned to Nora and insisted, Please, return to the manor and look after Abby. Shes safest with you.
Nora hesitated before replying, But Mr. Pierce has instructed me to accompany you around the clock. If I fail to do so, I risk being expelled from the witch clan.
