Exhausted, I shook my head and murmured, You can go home now. Lets discuss this once Abbys condition has stabilized.
Andrew lingered for a moment, his gaze fixed on the closed doors of the emergency room, filled with guilt. Eventually, he departed with a heavy heart.
Time seemed to slow as I waited anxiously. Just as despair was about to take hold, the doors to the emergency room swung open.
A nurse wheeled Abby out. Her tiny body lay motionless on the stretcher, stirring a profound sadness within me. My emotions overflowed, tears streaming down my face.
The nurse, noticing my distress, reassured me gently, Dont worry, shes going to be alright. Shes just sleeping.
Comforted by her words, I managed to calm myself, my relief palpable as I expressed my gratitude to the medical staff repeatedly.
Debras POV:
After Abby was returned to the ward, I held her tightly.
Caleb gazed at Abby and me for a moment, smiling as he remarked, Shes a good girl. She has your eyes and brows. Shell grow up to be as beautiful as you.
Feeling the warmth in Calebs eyes, my broken heart gradually eased.
Cradling the sleeping Abby, I confided in Caleb about her past.
You may not know, but Abby has always been a joy since birth. Shes been healthy and easy to care for.

.
The maids who looked after her adored her. Even the butler and bodyguards at the manor loved playing with her. Shes fearless of strangers and giggles at everyone. Shes been spoiled by everyone.
Caleb smiled, reaching out to touch the childs face tenderly. Ive already asked Carlos to send bodyguards here. Once they arrive, theyll escort you and Abby back home first. Ill resolve matters with the witch clan quickly and join you soon.
I understood the gravity of the situation within the witch clan. Our daughter had suffered, and I knew Caleb would seek justice for her.
But I couldnt shake the feeling that her suffering was somehow my fault.

I wanted to witness firsthand the punishment of the person who harmed my daughter.
After contemplating for a moment, I grasped Calebs sleeve and declared firmly, I want to stay. I need to see justice served with my own eyes.
But its too dangerous here. You were drugged not long ago, and Abby was poisoned. Im afraid the two of you will get hurt again.
Calebs voice quivered. He disagreed with my decision to stay.
It was the first time I had seen Caleb show fear in my presence.
I reassured him, patting the back of his hand. Dont worry. Were vulnerable now, but once Carlos arrives, he can protect both me and our child. Even if I stay a few more days, I wont be at risk.
Caleb consented reluctantly, sensing my unwavering resolve.
We spent the entire day in the ward with Abby, doing nothing else.
The next morning, the doctor made the usual rounds of the wards.
