Chapter 2042


    The television screen shed with another live photo, capturing Louisa, arm in arm with her daughter,


    chatting with guests, her smile as radiant as the early spring sun. It appeared she was introducing her


    daughter to some influential figures.


    Tears brimmed in Serena''s eyes, her gaze flecked with a hint of resentment.


    Her mother, who had once showered her with love and affection, showed no sign of sorrow over her


    loss. Instead, this once tender mother now beamed with warmth and cordiality, a stark contrast to the


    cold-hearted woman who had locked her in the basement not long ago.


    Serena felt a mix of anger, frustration, and hurt as her tears fell like pearls slipping off a broken


    ne.


    The following morning.


    When Arabe woke up, the house felt eerily quiet. Upon inquiring, she learned that her grandparents


    had gone to Hope Hospital for a check-up.


    "Are they not feeling well?"


    Arabe wondered if her grandparents were unwell and, not wanting to disturb her after the evening''s


    g, had quietly slipped away to the hospital for an examination.


    "They didn''t mention why, but your parents heard about it and have already rushed over. I''m not quite


    sure what''s going on."


    Arabe tried calling her mother, but there was no answer. She then called her father, but again, no one


    picked up.


    Just as Arabe was about to drive over, a servant hurriedly brought her a sandwich, "Ms. Be, you


    should eat something first. In case there''s something there that needs your attention, you might go


    hungry for a while."

    Touched by the servant''s concern, Arabe smiled, epted the sandwich with a thank you, and ate


    her breakfast on the go. As she arrived at Hope Hospital, her mother finally returned her call.


    "Be, why are you up so early? Did you hear about your grandparentsing to the hospital and got


    worried?"


    Louisa''s voice was cheery, "They''re fine, dear. They just wanted to show their appreciation to Dr. Pierce


    from Hope Hospital. Before you came home, Dr. Pierce took good care of you, and when you were


    trending on social media, he stepped in to clear up the situation and exin things for you. So, to thank


    him, your grandparents donated some medical equipment to the hospital."


    Louisa continued, "Now that the equipment has arrived, Dr. Pierce invited them to have a look and take


    the opportunity to do a check-up. It''s also a chance to encourage more seniors tomit to yearly


    health screenings."


    Arabe sighed in relief, "That''s good to hear. I''m at the hospital now, where are you guys?"


    "My dear girl, you came all the way here? Did you have breakfast? I was chatting with Dr. Pierce and


    had my phone on silent, didn''t see your call. We''re now in the emergency building, on the twenty-


    second floor. Dr. Pierce has been singing your praises all the way."


    "Okay, I''ming up." Arabe had just ended the call when someone tapped her shoulder.


    "rk? Did you hear about grandparents'' check-up at the hospital too?" Reаd at


    But since he was there, he might as well go up, see the grandparents, and keep his sisterpany.
