A few minutes later, the door of the lounge was opened from outside. The director came in with an examination report. Ciara stood up and walked over in a hurry.
“Doctor, how is she? Is there anything wrong with her?”
“Calm down, ma’am. She’s doing good. She has no external injuries.” The director handed her the report and continued with a frown, “However, we can’t say for sure that there’s nothing wrong with her. We need to carry out a more detailed examination. There’s something off about her. Judging by her behavior, she might have congenital autism. It seems the white spots on her face are due to vitiligo. Rest assured that the medical team will keep on attending to her.”
Ciara was just about to look through the report when her phone rang. It was from Sarah.
“Sorry, I have to take this,” she said to the director.
She put down the report and walked out. After walking to a quiet corner, she answered the phone.
“Hello, Ciara! How is Alina? Is she all right?” Sarah asked anxiously.
“Yes, she’s doing fine. She has received a general checkup. Don’t worry.” Ciara went on to tell her the doctor’s diagnosis..
After hearing everything, Sarah breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you so much, Ciara. I’m truly grateful for your help. I can’t even imagine what would have happened if you hadn’t helped. Thank you, thank you!”
“Oh, don’t mention it. How are you doing?”
“So-so!” Sarah coughed and added, “Please take care of Alina for tonight. I can’t leave here for the time being. My mother is on the way here from a neighboring city. She will pick Alina up tomorrow morning.”
“No problem. I’ll take care of the kid. Don’t worry Just take care of yourself” Ciara comforted. “If I may, who…” She paused just when she was about to bring up the child’s paternity. Sarah might feel offended if she brought that up now. After all, it was a private affair.
Ciara had actually taken a liking to Sarah right from when she debuted. She listened to all her songs and watched some of her live performances. Sarah was different from most female idols. She was never pretentious or problematic in and out of the industry. People previously looked up to her.
Despite all that was going on, Ciara could feel it in her guts that Sarah was innocent. It didn’t make sense that Sarah would lie to cover her infidelity if she had indeed cheated on Lynch. They were in the same boat, so she felt that Sarah had no reason to lie. There was more to this than met the eye, and Ciara decided to find out what it was.
Perhaps there was a story about the child.
After the call ended, Ciara was on her way back to the lounge when a sweet female voice suddenly came from behind.
“Hey! Are you the woman who married Adrian?”
Ciara turned around, only to see a young lady in a hospital gown standing not too far away. She was beautiful and young. Although her face looked innocent, her eyes were blazing with hostility.
The girl eyed Ciara from head to toe rudely. A frown appeared on her beautiful face. Her previously sweet voice suddenly became mean.
“You look like someone who lived all her life in the slums. You are worse than a plain Jane. Do you really think you deserve a man like Adrian?
“Who are you?” Ciara’s face instantly turned cold.
The girl didn’t answer that question. Instead, she glared at her belly and continued, “I heard that you might get pregnant for Adrian…”
Ciara was shocked. How did the girl know about that? Who was she? It appeared that this girl was close to the Lewis family in some way.
The young lady slowly walked forward with at smirk on her face. “Anyway, that doesn’t matter. Nothing will change even if you get pregnant I’m dead sure that Adrian won’t let that baby come into this world.”
Ciara held her belly and took two steps back. Staring at her warily, Ciara uttered, “And why is that?”
“Do you really want to know?” The girl stopped in front of her, leaned forward, and whispered in her ear, “Go find that out yourself. Here’s a clue. It is right in the Lewis family’s mansion. In the room at the end of the fourth floor.”
The room at the end of the fourth floor?
Ciara recalled that the room at the end of the fourth floor was one of the places Judy said was out of bounds to her.
“Helen, what are you doing out here? The doctor said you mustn’t leave your ward without permission. Go back to your ward!”
Adrian’s baritone voice suddenly came from behind. Ciara saw that the girl’s eyes lit up and her face broke into a sweet smile.
Helen Clarke pushed past Ciara and ran all the way to Adrian. She crouched beside him, smiling
“Don’t be mad at me, Adrian. I only came out for some fresh air. I’m nervous about the surgery. Staying in the ward is so depressing. Besides, it’s been ages since we last met. Where have you been all this while?”
“I have been very busy. Anyway, that doesn’t matter. I’m here now.” Adrian patted her on the shoulder with a smile on his face. “Don’t get too anxious, okay? You will be wheeled into the operating theater any time soon. That’s the more reason why you should stay put in your ward. It’s for your own good.”
“Okay, I will.” Helen pouted, stood up and pushed his wheelchair away.
“Where are you taking me?” Adrian asked, leaning back in the wheelchair.
“We have a lot to catch up on. Since we haven’t seen each other for so long, I have a lot to tell you. Just cooperate with me,” Helen said, not stopping for a second.
It was as if Ciara was invisible to them. She stood a few meters away as she watched the two with her mouth slightly agape.
Never had she seen Adrian smile so brightly. It was obvious that he was genuinely happy in Helen’s company. This was the first time Ciara was seeing him talk to someone so gently. He even allowed her to wheel him away.
Ciara couldn’t help but wonder what their relationship was.
At this time, Helen stopped in front of a VIP ward and controlled the wheelchair to enter inside. Ciara hesitated a little and went after them in a hurry. However, the door was slammed shut in her face.
Through the glass, she could see Helen’s wicked smile. Adrian acted like he hadn’t seen his wife try to get in just now. They both began to chat happily.
Ciara felt a little depressed. She turned around and decided to check on Alina instead.
The test result came out, confirming that Alina was autistic.
Ciara tried to strike up a conversation with the little girl. But no matter what, Alina didn’t utter a word. She just sat on the bed and stared blankly into space. It was obvious she was immersed in her own world.
Ciara’s heart ached to see a child like this. She took out a piece of candy from her pocket and held it to Alina’s eye level. “Look, here’s a piece of candy. The nurse told me you like candy. Do you want this one?”
Alina’s eyes didn’t light up at the sight of candy. She just lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers. Ciara let out a sigh. She pressed the candy into Alina’s hand. Turning around, she picked up an orange and started peeling it.
Several minutes passed before Adrian returned.
“You are back,” Ciara commented casually and returned her attention to Alina. She tried to feed her the orange.
Adrian nodded and said, “We should get going now.”
“Please can I bring Alina along? I have to take care of her for tonight. She will stay with us just for one night. Sarah’s mother will pick her up tomorrow morning.” Ciara pleaded with him.
“Suit yourself. Just make sure she doesn’t disturb me when we are at home,” Adrian said flatly.
“She won’t. Alina is a good girl.” Ciara smiled and touched Alina’s head. After hesitating for a moment, she asked casually, “By the way, who was that girl?”
“Did you just ask me that?” Adrian’s face darkened immediately. He uttered seriously. “Mind your business, Ciara. Don’t ask me such a question ever again.”
