Chapter 549 Legal

Katherine had just given birth, and she and the baby were sent to the observation room. They would not be moved back to the general ward until two hours later.

Family members weren't allowed to accompany them, so Joshua sat right outside the observation room while waiting.

Sophia yawned. Alexander, sitting next to her, turned to look at her and raised his hand to brush aside the loose strands of hair beside her ear. “Are you tired?”

“Just a little.”

The time was already eleven o'clock at night. Sophia and Alexander had been in the hospital for nearly ten hours. Usually, Sophia would be asleep by that hour, let alone that day, after having accompanied Katherine and been on tenterhooks all day.

She let out another yawn after replying to him.

At that moment, the phone in her bag rang.

Sophia glanced at Alexander. He let go of her hand to let her answer the call.

After taking out her phone, she noticed it was a call from Joshua.

“It's me, Sophia.”

“It's getting late. You and Mr. Xenos should go back first. Katherine is too tired. Even if she comes out of the observation room later, she probably won't wake up tonight.” Joshua regained his composure after calming down.

Recalling the scene when Joshua repeatedly questioned the nurse if Katherine was truly just asleep, Sophia couldn't help but smile. “All right. I got it. I'll come over tomorrow morning.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Sophia grinned at Alexander. “Let's go back, Mr. Xenos.”

She was distracted as she spoke and didn't notice the few steps beneath her feet. As a result, she landed on the lower ground and staggered. Fortunately, Alexander swiftly reached out to wrap his arm around her waist, pulling him into his embrace and steadying her. “Did you sprain your ankle?”
