“What’s wrong, Madam?” Ava’s eyebrows rose. Her eyes blinked firmly.

“I just remembered that I haven’t officially introduced myself.” Vivian stepped forward and held out her hand. Her smile, which was usually graceful, now seemed sweet. “I’m Vivian Bell. Jeremy’s mother.”

Ava shook her hand with awkward movements. “I’m Ava Connor.”

“Have you been a nurse long?” Vivian hadn’t let go of Ava’s hand. The girl grew stiffer.

“Four years. Is that long?”

“No wonder you look so experienced. I’m lucky you’re here to look after Melanie.” Vivian patted the back of Ava’s hand. The girl almost frowned, uncomfortable.

“I’m just doing my job, Ma’am.”

Ava tried to pull her hand away, but Vivian held back. Jeremy noticed that. He also wondered how long his mother would hold Ava’s hand.

“So,” Jeremy cleared his throat, “shall we go now? I have to talk to

Sean before he leaves.”

“The man who escorted my mother? Ava raised an eyebrow. “He

wants to leave?”

Jeremy nodded. “He has to go home soon. He wants to celebrate New Year with his family.”

Ava’s face suddenly fell. Worry clouded her eyes.

“But you don’t need to worry,” Jeremy continued quickly. “The owner of the hospital is a friend of ours. He promised to ensure your

mother’s safety.”

“Your brother said that man could defeat all the hospital security officers?”

Jeremy nodded stiffly. “Yes, but if the entire crew is alert, your

mother’s safety will still be guaranteed. You can’t ask Sean to sacrifice New Year’s moments with his family, right? Besides, Sophia doesn’t know your mother’s latest location.”

Ava sighed faintly. “That’s right. He also has a family to look after,” she muttered, looking down for a moment.

Ava replied, holding Vivian’s hand, “I have to go now. If there’s anything with Mrs. Harris, please call us.”
