Chapter 493

Hailey burst into tears of relief when she saw Mary and James. No one could understand what they had just been through. If they had been even a second later, Celine's unborn child would have been lost. The thought made Hailey's legs go weak with fear.

Mary hurried into the operating room. When she saw Celine, her emotions overwhelmed her, and she grabbed Celine's hand. "Celine, it's me. I'm here!"

Celine's face was as pale as a sheet, completely devoid of color. She had been holding on through sheer willpower, but the moment she saw Mary, she finally let go of the tension weighing on her. She blinked her teary eyes, her pale lips trembling slightly as she said, "Grandma..."

"Yes, I'm here," Mary said, squeezing Celine's cold hand. "It's okay now. Don't be afraid. With Grandma here, no one dares touch you or your child!"

Celine nodded weakly, then closed her eyes and drifted into unconsciousness.
