“Gary, you have to get better, you hear me? This whole thing scared me half to death. We goita take care of ourselves.”

Gary’s lips were dry, and he didn’t speak, but he gave Samantha a weak nod.

Stephanie stood quietly by the side, watching. As her gaze drifted to the hospital bed, a wave of guilt and worry washed over her, making her quickly look away.

After Samantha finished speaking and wiped away her tears, she turned and called out, “Steffi, come closer and take a look at your dad.”

Diana gently nudged Stephanie forward. She took a big step and met Gary’s gaze. At that moment, she was at a loss, her eyes wide.
