In the midst of the emergency, Dr. Andrews stepped out to update Gregory on the situation.

"I've done everything within my power; the rest is up to Dr. Smith."

"Though Dr. Smith mentioned treatment is possible, he's not a miracle worker. If the patient can't overcome her inner turmoil, even he can't guarantee the child's safety."

Gregory's hands, hanging by his sides, clenched into fists. His jawline tightened, a sharp contour of determination and fear.

After a few seconds of heavy silence, he spoke up, "Save or not, Jane is our priority right now."

Christine caught the storm of emotions brewing in Gregory's eyes.

She couldn't fully comprehend it.

Yet, she always knew such depth of feeling was part of Gregory's very essence.

It was as if every bone in his body was shattered.

"There has to be a way," Christine turned away, fighting back tears, "Jane is strong. She's just struggling to come to terms with it all. Plus, she said she wouldn't give up on this child, Gregory. You need to hang in there too." "Besides, Jane just lost her grandmother. Losing this child would break her completely."

Dailey reached out to wipe her tears but was brushed aside once more.

He turned to Gregory, adding, "Christine's right. We need to do everything we can to save the child."

Now wasn't the time for conflict, Christine thought, following his lead. "With the funeral today, she's definitely not in a good place. Once she wakes up, I'll have a proper talk with her."

"She's just not thinking clearly right now. A good talk, and she might see things differently."

Gregory understood all too well.

Yet, he couldn't bear to see her suffer anymore.
