After they conducted a thorough examination of Abby, we anxiously awaited the results.
Reading through the examination report, the doctor smiled and said, The childs condition is stable, and the poison has been completely eliminated from her system. You can leave the hospital soon.
Relief washed over me, and I glanced at Caleb in disbelief. Thats wonderful news. Abby is going to be alright.
See? I was correct. Abby is our daughter. Naturally, shes fine,
Caleb remarked with a smile, pinching my nose playfully.
Feeling slightly embarrassed by Calebs gesture in front of the doctor, I swatted his hand away and addressed the doctor. Thank you. Your efforts have ensured my babys safety.
The doctor waved his hand and replied modestly, Its all in a days work.
I then inquired, Do you have the test results for the poison? How did the child get poisoned?
With a serious expression, the doctor handed me the test report and explained, Yesterday evening, Mr. Pierce delivered the childs daily necessities to the hospital. Upon examination, we discovered that the milk powder was contaminated. The baby likely consumed the milk between ten and twelve oclock.
Accepting the report, I thanked the doctor sincerely.
Based on the timeline, I deduced that Abby had ingested the poisoned milk after arriving at Veronicas manor. But could the perpetrator truly be from there?
I doubted it, as it seemed too opportunistic.

Shirley had secretly abducted the child. Addys reaction upon our arrival at Veronicas manor yesterday suggested she was unaware of Shirleys involvement in the kidnapping, and Veronica seemed clueless either.
Shirley, though arrogant and cruel, shouldnt have stooped to poisoning a child. If she truly intended harm, she could have simply taken direct action. Why go through the trouble of kidnapping the child and poisoning her in her own home?

My mind raced, pondering who could commit such a heinous act against Abby.
The doctor added, Ive reviewed all the test results. Feel free to call me anytime if you have any questions.
Debras POV:
After the doctor left, I bent my head and pressed a kis on Abbys pale cheek.
Within just a day, her usually plump cheeks seemed slightly slimmer.
My heart was aching, but Abby chuckled joyously. Her large, clear eyes shone with pure innocence.
I couldnt help but sigh. My only wish was for my sweet girl to always remain this carefree, joyful, and safe.
Stroking the little ones face, Caleb smiled and said, Abby appears quite cheerful. Look at her smile; she must be feeling better.
I agreed, smiling back. Abby is simply the best. Now we can leave the hospital with joy.
Caleb and I completed the discharge procedures, then settled Abby into the car, ready to head home.
