?Chapter 632:


    The meal was harmonious, but Eileen’s heart was heavy with regret. She watched Gabri, whose big eyes were wide with excitement as she eagerly reached for the food. Gabri beamed, revealing her four tiny teeth, and tried to feed Eileen by handing food to her mouth.


    “Mommy isn’t hungry,” Eileen said with a smile, gently turning down the offer. She recalled a day in the hospital when Gabri’s hands were smeared with grease, trying to feed Bryan. Bryan had epted the food from Gabri’s greasy hand without hesitation.


    Even though Eileen found it unappetizing, Bryan didn’t mind in the slightest.


    Eileen used a wet wipe to clean Gabri’s hands, her heart overwhelmed with emotions.


    Noticing this, Bailee asked, “Which hospital is Bryan at? Huey and I will visit him when we can.”


    “When you’re free, I can take you there.” After cleaning Gabri’s hands, Eileen smiled at Bailee and Huey and added, “He’s doing well now.”


    Huey put down his fork and asked, “What’s Bryan’s illness? I know some top specialists. Do you need me to contact them for assistance?”


    Eileen shook her head, replying, “No, thank you. He’s already under the care of professionals.”


    “That’s reassuring. How long will he be in the hospital?” Bailee asked cautiously.


    Eileen paused for a moment. The timing of Bryan’s discharge was uncertain. It was unclear whether he would even be discharged soon.


    “Let’s not focus on that,” Ruby interjected, shifting the conversation. “Hospital visiting hours are only in the morning. When you both find time to visit, make sure to n it out in advance and bring me along.”


    Bailee quickly responded, “Sure thing.”

    In the afternoon, Eileen went upstairs with Gabri for her nap. Gabri, brimming with excitement, crawled around the bed and found a ck button.


    The button belonged to Bryan’s shirt, and Eileen wasn’t sure where Gabri had discovered it.


    Gabri waved the button in the air, then made her way to Eileen, pressing the button gently against her cheek.


    Eileen felt the coldness of the button. She picked it up and stared at it for a long time.


    “Ma!” Gabri mumbled, extending her tiny fingers to gently brush away the tears from Eileen’s eyes.


    No tears fell onto the pillow; Gabri had tenderly wiped all of Eileen’s tears away.


    Eileen sat upright, clutching the button in her hand. She hugged Gabri tightly and said, “This button belongs to your Daddy.”


    Gabri showed no interest in the button. Instead, she gazed up at Eileen, her eyes mirroring Eileen’s red eyes.


    Eileen kissed Gabri’s forehead and said, “If you can start calling him ‘Daddy’ soon, it will make him so happy, and he’lle back faster.”


    Gabri repeated the word, “Daddy.”


    However, it was just the instinctive repetition of a baby, not a genuine call for her mother. Eileen estimated it would take at least two months for Gabri to learn to call her and Bryan. She wasn’t sure if Bryan would have the chance to hear it…
