Chapter 4
Unfortunately, the surgery failed
Even when my body was wheeled out of the emergency rooms, Robert and hadert duen p
But when he hears the news, he’ll probably be failed.
After all, with me around, he can finally be with Molly operly.
Not long after, I saw my mom rush into the hospital
ymoment she saw my body, a look of pain and disbelief flashed in her eyes
“How could something happen to such a good child, just like that?
She held my body, sobbing uncontrollably.
Seeing my mom in so much pain made my heart ache, and I felt a wave of sadness.
At her age, she now has to suffer the pain of losing her child.
I wanted to rush up and hug her, but my hands passed right through.
Lucas came over and tried to comfort her, “Auntie, Georgia is gone. But the dead can’t come back. We, who are still here, need to way strong
I looked at Lucas gratefully.
My mom, her eyes red, suddenly seemed to remember something. She anxiously grabbed Lucas’s hand and asked, “Lucas, where is Robert? Is he a the hospital? Does he know what happened?”
Lucas’s expression turned awkward, and he stayed silent for a long time before slowly saying, “He might not know yet.”
Robert was busy with Molly; how could he have time to care about me?
Over the years, I never told my mom about the truth of my relationship with Robert to avoid worrying her.
Asa result, she still believed we had the happy relationship we once had.
1just couldn’t understand–if Robert had Molly in his heart all along, why did he choose to marry me?
My mom quickly called Robert.
“Robert, Georgia has passed away. Can you please come to the hospital?”
My soul, drawn to the call, floated over to Robert.
He was still with Molly.
I saw him grip the phone tightly, his face initially tense before he scoffed. “Auntie, are you joking along with Georgia too? This isn’t funny.
“I just talked to her; she seemed fine.”
“Alright, I’m busy. I’ll hang up now.”
At that moment, Molly, who was leaning against Robert’s chest, frowned slightly and said, “Robert, what if something really happened to Georgia? Maybe you should go back to the hospital.”
Robert, after hanging up, put his phone down in frustration
“It’s nothing. What could possibly have happened to Georgia?”

My heart tightened. Was he finally going to the hospital?

Her voice trembled, but there was a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. “Robert, can you stay with me? I’m a little scared being alone.”
The emotions in Robert’s eyes were complicated, but he quickly softened again.
He gently agreed, “Okay,”
I stood off to the side, watching them from a distance.
Robert had always been so patient and gentle with Molly.
I suddenly remembered how, when I was afraid of thunderstorms, Robert would hold me in his arms like that.
Bet now, I couldn’t recall the last time he looked at me with such tenderness.
Robert stayed with Molly the entire night, only heading to the hospital the next morning.
As he was leaving, Molly stood on tiptoe, trying to kiss him on the cheek
But Robert turned his head to the side, dodging her.
If expression was somewhat cold.
Yet, when he saw the obvious hurt and disappointment in Molly’s eyes, his voice softened with a hint of apology.
“Sorry, Molly, I have to go.”
