"Fuck,” Ivy muttered under her breath as she ended the call.
She was half-relieved it wasn't anything related to her company, but the other half of her emotion was angry. With a single question echoing in her mind:
Why?
She made her way to the guards' quarters and called Stud. He came immediately, joined by three other bodyguards. They all climbed into her White Panther and drove straight to Walter Hospital.
By the time they arrived, some of Ivy's anger had begun to thaw, replaced by a slow-building worry.
"I'm here to see Miss Derrick's baby," she told the small nurse at the nurses' station.
"The neonatal ward is just down the corridor, ma'am," the nurse said, pointing.
Ivy nodded and followed her direction. When she found the ward, she pushed the door open and entered.
Cheryl was seated outside a room, her face buried in her palms. When she saw Ivy, she sprang to her feet.
"Hey, Ivy. Thank you for coming."
Ivy heard the relief in her voice but ignored it. "Where's the baby?"
"He's being attended to."
Ivy studied her, trying to tell if all was well from her countenance. When she was satisfied that Cheryl seemed physically okay, the worry morphed back into anger.
"What the hell are you doing here?" she snapped. "I hate this... whatever this is."
"I'm... sorry, Ivy," Cheryl said, lowering her eyes. "I couldn't stay at the other hospital. I had to-"
"I don't fucking care," Ivy spat and Cheryl flinched. "Don't involve me in your bloody mess. I didn't get you pregnant. In fact, I blame myself for helping you today."
The confession cracked something inside her, and she sank into a chair. She didn't need this harsh reminder, especially with everything going on.
"You know what you're doing, Cheryl," she said, her voice sharp as she pointed at her. "Why come here? The same place we had plans to use for the baby. You know how awkward this is."
"I know," Cheryl admitted, her voice shaking. "But the ambulance took us back to Mason's hospital, and I couldn't let us stay there... I knew no other hospital." Her voice broke and she bent to touch Ivy.
"Don't," Ivy snarled, pulling away. "Don't touch me. You don't get to do that." "I'm... sorry."
The tension in Cheryl's voice softened some of Ivy's anger, but she refused to give in fully.
"They won't treat him without your details, which is why... I'm sorry," Cheryl continued.
Ivy hated the pitiful tone Cheryl used and the way she slouched, like a deflated version of her former self.
