Chapter 304: Chapter 303: You Seem to Love Him

In the indigo shadows, her mother’s embrace made Daisy Ginger feel as if she had returned to her early childhood.

She turned back into that clueless child, curled up in Alice Lesser’s arms, unwilling to let go.

"Mom, can you not leave?" she whispered, "It’s really hard for me alone."

"I’m so tired..." she murmured with grievance, "really so tired..."

Alice gently held her, saying nothing, and Daisy buried her face in the warm embrace, once again crying intermittently.

She didn’t know why she was so upset.

In the haze, she fell asleep again, feeling someone leaving her side, knowing it was Alice who had gone, and despite trying with all her might to open her eyes, consciousness slipped into slumber.

When Daisy Ginger woke up, it was already dark.

She opened her eyes and saw the snowy white ceiling of the hospital room.

As her gaze shifted up, she saw the IV bottle.

The warmth from the dream seemed to still linger on her body, and in her daze, she could smell the fragrance from Alice’s body.

Yet inside, she felt empty, not knowing why.

"Director Ginger," Oliver Rubio came over beside her, "you’re awake? Is there anywhere you still feel uncomfortable?"

Slowly sitting up from the hospital bed, the white sheet covering Daisy slipped down, revealing her considerably skinnier collarbone.

"Cough, cough..." Daisy coughed lightly, her voice hoarse as she asked, "What happened to me?"

"You had a fever." Oliver looked at her, with a hint of reproach in his tone, "The doctor said you’re somewhat malnourished. Director Ginger, how long has it been since you had a proper meal?"

Unwilling to be lectured by him, Daisy pressed her temples with her fingers, hoarsely changing the topic, "What time is it? Is it after work hours?"
