Exhaustion overwhelmed me, and I nodded without a word.

Nora’s expression softened with sympathy.

She leaned closer, her voice was low and soothing.

“Don’t worry.

On the way here, I talked to the bodyguards.

They assured me that Caleb is tough.

They didn’t hit any critical areas, so he should be alright.

Her words sparked hope in me, and I looked up, eyes wide.

“Really?” I asked.

Nora nodded resolutely.

“Yes, I double-checked with several of them, and they all confirmed it!”

A wave of relief washed over me, but as my gaze fell on the closed doors of the emergency room, my anxiety returned.

As long as Caleb was in there, peace was elusive.

All I wanted was to be by his side.

Unable to convince me, Nora sighed and stayed by my side silently.

I glanced at Nora, recognizing her genuine kindness towards both me and Abby.

The thought of Abby cleared the fog in my mind.

I turned to Nora and asked, “Where’s Abby? Who’s looking after her if you’re here in the hospital?”

Nora quickly reassured me, “Don’t worry.

Mr.

Pierce knew you’d be concerned, so he arranged for the butler and two of the most experienced maids to care for her.

They’re very capable.

Abby is in good hands.

I frowned, concern creeping into my voice.

“But you’ve always been the one to look after Abby.

Now that neither of us is with her, I’m worried she might feel scared.

Nora pulled out her phone, trying to ease my worries.

“Abby’s doing well, really.

Before I left the manor, the butler mentioned you can video call to see her whenever you’d like.

She found the butler’s contact and asked, “Would you like to see Abby now? I can make a video call.

Eagerly, I nodded and urged her, “Yes, call now.

I need to see her.

Although I felt slightly embarrassed to disturb Nora and the butler, my mind was in turmoil.

The urgency to confirm my child’s safety overwhelmed me.

I was unable to meet Caleb in person at that moment.

So, the least I could do was see our child through the video.

The call connected swiftly, revealing Abby’s rosy, plump cheeks on the screen, The sight of Abby laughing heartily brought me immense relief, and tears streamed down my face without restraint.

It seemed the bond between mother and daughter was profound.

Abby’s smile vanished the moment she noticed my tears.

Her expression turned sorrowful, as if she was on the brink of crying herself.

I quickly averted my gaze, unable to bear seeing Abby distressed.

I requested Nora to end the call.

As long as Abby was safe, that was all that mattered to me.

I didn’t want her to feel sorrowful as well.

After collecting myself, I turned to Nora and insisted, “Please, return to the manor and look after Abby.

She’s safest with you.

Nora hesitated before replying, “But… Mr.

Pierce has instructed me to accompany you around the clock.

If I fail to do so, I risk being expelled from the witch clan.
