Chapter 260

The moment Penelope crossed her mind, that suffocating feeling pressed down on Serena's chest again.

She instinctively clutched at her heart.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" William's voice was quick with concern. "I'm fine..." Serena shook her head, but her pale face made the words ring hollow. "I'll call the doctor," William said, frowning as he turned his wheelchair toward the door.

"I'll go," Gabrielle offered, pressing the call button before hurrying out to find a doctor herself.

The doctor arrived quickly and gave Serena a thorough checkup, but found nothing out of the ordinary.

He offered a few words of reassurance-just get plenty of rest and left.

Gabrielle, still worried, insisted on heading home to prepare a nutritious meal for Serena and left soon after.

Once again, Serena and William were alone in the quiet hospital room.

"Mr. Grayson, shouldn't you be at work by now?" Serena glanced at the clock-it was already past ten. Normally, William would be at his office at this hour, not lingering here with her.

William hesitated, lips parting as if to say something more, but finally just nodded. "You're right. I'll head back to the office. Will you be alright on your own?"

"The doctor said it's just exhaustion. I just need some rest," Serena assured him, waving off his worry. "Go on, I'll be fine."

"Alright."
