Chapter 46

"I can't believe you're still acting up when you're in this state," Abigail mumbled to herself. She didn't see anything wrong with treating Greg that way—he wasn't even a patient in her eyes. Abigail had always applied the same simple and aggressive approach to patients like him. However, the nurses around her were shocked.

"He's Mr. Buckley, Dr. Kain," one of them said.

"I don't care who he is—he has to listen to me as long as he's here." Abigail finished her sentence in a domineering tone before she told the nurses to send Greg to the ICU. Then, she went over to Arianna's room.

There were a lot of things that Arianna couldn't eat due to her asthma. Before entering the operation theater just now, Abigail had specially ordered some food for her. When Abigail entered the ward, she found Arianna jabbing her finger against her tablet. "Have you eaten?" Abigail's voice turned softer without her realizing it.

Arianna looked up and gave Abigail a faint smile when she saw her. "I've eaten, Mommy. Have you eaten? Where's Daddy? I told him to remind you to have lunch. Why don't I see him anywhere?"

Abigail felt a warm sensation spreading across her chest when she heard what Arianna said. "As long as you and Allie are here with me, I'll always feel better." Abigail gave Arianna a gentle hug. When Abigail recalled how Greg had been worried about his daughters before he entered the operation theater, she asked Arianna a question. "Do you like Daddy a lot?"

"Yeah," Arianna replied with a nod.

"How much do you like him?"

"A lot! I like Daddy as much as I like Mommy," the young girl replied. Abigail was rather shocked after she heard what Arianna said. It's only been such a short while—does Greg matter that much to my daughter already? She didn't ask anything else after that, but she told herself that she would have to bring her daughters away once she got her mother's files.

Abigail and Arianna chatted for a while more before they heard the ding of a notification that Arianna had received on her tablet. "Are you talking to Alissa?"

"Yeah!" Arianna nodded, but she didn't show Abigail the tablet. Abigail was respectful toward her children's privacy, so she simply patted Arianna on her head with a smile. "You shouldn't chat for so long because staring at the screen is not good for your eyes. I'll go take a look at my patients. Your daddy has some stuff to handle, but he might come over a little later. You should get some rest. Call me if you need anything, okay?"

"Okay. Bye, Mommy!" Arianna waved goodbye, and Abigail smiled before leaving the room. After Abigail left, Arianna took a look at the information that Alissa had sent her on the tablet. It was a DNA report. "How did you get Daddy's sample for the DNA test, Allie?" Arianna was impressed.
