The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 649

Brandon also noticed her hand, which had been held tight by Theresa like a teddy bear, and he let go, reaching out to help free her other hand.

Sophia stopped him, "It's fine, let her hold on."

"Doesn't your arm feel numb?" Brandon whispered.

"I'm good," Sophia whispered back, careful not to wake Theresa.

Brandon nodded, not pushing the matter, and when he turned his gaze back, he caught a glimpse of that little teddy bear on the nightstand, pausing for a moment. It was the first time Theresa had let go of the teddy bear since Sophia's accident. Sophia also noticed the teddy bear, remembering how Theresa had clung to it in the bathroom yesterday, and she couldn't help but look at Brandon, "What's up?" Brandon just smiled at her, "Nothing."

He didn't go into detail about Theresa's attachment to the teddy bear, not wanting to add to her worries.

Susan and Kent just happened to walk in, catching the two discussing the teddy bear. Their eyes paused, but they both smiled when they looked at Sophia.

Susan had brought breakfast over.

She teased Sophia with a shake, "Brought you breakfast, all your favorites."

"Thanks."

Sophia couldn't help but smile, feeling an instant connection with Susan.

Susan, after a night to adjust, was now at ease with Sophia's amnesia, chuckling, "No need to be polite with me."

And with that, she set the breakfast down neatly.

The group had a peaceful and cozy breakfast. Despite Sophia's newfound reserve

due to her memory loss, it didn't dampen the warmth of the moment.

After breakfast, the doctor did his rounds and, finding no issues with Sophia, agreed to discharge her.

Brandon personally drove Sophia home from the hospital.

Theresa came along too.

She woke up and stayed by Sophia's side as if afraid she'd vanish again, even forgetting to take her beloved teddy bear, which Sophia packed up for her.

Sophia didn't know the significance of the teddy bear to Theresa, only that she had seen her clinging to it the day before, and assumed it was her favorite toy, so she made sure to pack it up for her.

Brandon drove them back to their neighborhood.
