Her Precious Baby

Angeline looked through the window to study the environment of the bare ward. Delroy was lying on a single bed with a ventilator and a wooden table beside him.

Angeline became ill at ease, and she frowned. “Does he not have anyone taking care of him?”

The nurse carefully scanned her surroundings to make sure no one was around before whispering, “Delroy has been in our hospital for four years. I heard he used to be a driver for a rich couple, but unfortunately, he was dragged into a strange car accident. The family he had worked for did not plan to pay his medical bills, so Delroy’s family gave up on the thought of saving him.”

After hearing the nurse’s explanation, Angeline tightened her fists as fury manifested on her face.

How can Joseline do something like this? Is she even human?

Right then, a world-weary woman’s voice sounded out behind them. “What are you looking at?”

Then, they saw a plump woman with a headscarf and patched clothes with a flask in her hands standing a distance away, watching them coldly.

When the nurse saw her, she shuddered and uttered, “Mrs. Quast, you’re here.”

The woman then walked over to her and studied their expressions. In a nervous tone, she asked, “Is my Delroy in a bad state again?”

“He’s not. Don’t worry. However, this miss wants to have a talk with you,” the nurse gently told the plump woman.

At that, the plump woman turned to Angeline warily, confused by Angeline’s presence.

Reading the room, the nurse excused herself. Before she left, she whispered to Angeline, “She’s Delroy’s wife, and she’s a feisty one. Please have patience with her.”

“I got it. Thank you,” Angeline said with a smile, a wave of warmth seeping into her heart. She then watched the nurse take an elevator down.
