Chapter 0256 ANASTASIA "You forgot this.
"Oh!" I piped up in a high pitched tone, "Thanks," then I snatched it from his hands.
Why did I snatch it like that! I mentally reprimanded myself but he did not even seem to have noticed because he was not looking atanymore.
Did he hear her? I wondered as I squinted at the side of his face as he watched Clara as she walked briskly into the hospital, Amie safely in her arms. I could not tell which of them she was looking at and that madeworry even more.
But I tried to soothe my worries. He didn't look like he heard anything. Amie was groggy from the sleep during the ride so her voice was not loud. He did not hear, right? He couldn't have. I was just paranoid because of all the scenes of him finding out about Amie that I had staged in my head all through the ride here.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI turned to the direction where his gaze was still fixated and I got carried away as I watched Clara carry Amie into the hospital. I wanted to run to them and hold Amie in my arms.
My heart suddenly felt heavy. Amie is usually very energetic. Even whenever she was sick, you'd barely be able to tell because she just liked to move around.
I remembered the last tshe had a fever, several months ago, she had insisted that she would undo her seatbelt by herself and walk to the doctor's room on her own. "I'm a big girl, mommy," she had said, her little face set in determination. It had taken all my willpower not to scoop her up and carry her myself.

When they disappeared through the door, Aiden's gaze still followed them as they made their way to the counter directly opposite the open door and I knew I had to distract him before he started to ask questions.
"Thank you for this again," I said with a sheepish smile even though he was not looking my way yet but I yearned to add, 'you can look away and leave now, please." He finally looked away and turned to me. As usual, I could not pinpoint his thoughts.
So I simply raised my purse and said awkwardly, "I would've really regretted forgetting this. Thank you so much." His eyes fell on the pause in my hand and he stared at it for quite a while as if he was still processing my words or regrouping his thoughts then he nodded and looked back up atwith a small smile. "It's okay, "he said, but he still remained there.
I glanced behind him at his parked car before I settled my gaze back on him again, "Thank you for the ride. I really appreciate it." I hope he got the underlying message.
He nodded again. "I'm glad I was of help," he said curtly then he turned, got into his car without a backward glance and drove off.
I almost sagged against Clara's car in relief but I needed to rush inside to Amie and so I did.
1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 0756 Though I was relieved that he was gone, as I made my way inside the hospital, I wondered where the man in the break room who was so intent on us having a 'talk' to clear the air was. It was as if two different versions of Aiden had shown up tonight.
My eyes quickly roamed the reception area in search of Clara. I found her almost immediately. It was easy to find her as the hospital was not very filled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hey," I said quietly as I walked up to her. She was seated on one of the stiff chairs in a corner of the reception area, her focus on her phone. When she heard me, she looked up, worry written all over her features.
Her gaze made a quick trip to the hospital's entrance before they settled on me. Before I could ask my more urgent questions, she beat her to it.
"Is he gone?" "Thankfully yes.
She nodded, visibly relieved. "Good. We don't need any more complications tonight." "Where's she? How's she?" I rushed out, my heart pounding with anxiety.
"She has been taken in and admitted for stests," she said as she rose from her seat. "Admitted?" I frowned, "I thought we could go back hwith her tonight."
Clara shrugged and let out a sigh.
"Let's go," she gestured toward the on narrow hallway the rectly other side of room, opposite where we were seated. "The doctor has asked to seebut I wanted to wait for you."
"Oh okay, let's go then." I said and we immediately made our way to the doctor's office. 2 RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
