Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 452

When Hanley who had weighed heavily on Mary was finally lifted and Leanne found herself walking away from the Richardson family, her lingering attachments dissipated into thin air.

"After you left, Mary’s health went downhill. She's been in and out of the hospital these past few months. We didn't want to worry you," Jennifer said, pausing to stifle a sob.

"Leanne, please, come see her."

By the time Leanne arrived at the hospital, Mary had been moved out of the ICU.

It wasn't that her condition had improved. Rather, the doctors had done all they could. Now, it was time for the family to say their goodbyes.

The atmosphere in the hospital room was heavy and tense. Maddox and Phillip stood by the bed in silence, their faces a grim mask of sorrow, which Mary immediately scolded.

"Don't look so glum. I'm not gone yet. Save your mourning for when I'm gone."

Jennifer's eyes were swollen from tears as she tucked the blanket around Mary. "I've called Leanne. Just hold on a little longer."

"Ah, why did you bother Anne? I've got no face to see her. And look at me, a sight for sore eyes, I don't want her remembering me like this."

Despite her words, when the door creaked open, she couldn't help but look up eagerly.

A flash of disappointment crossed her eyes when Mary saw it was just a nurse.

"She won't come," Mary sighed, settling back down. "She's still angry with me."

"Leanne," Jennifer suddenly called out.

Mary whipped her head back towards the door. When she saw Leanne walking in behind the nurse, her lips quivered and her eyes brimmed with tears, much like a child caught in a misdeed.

At the sight of Mary lying there, a shadow of her former self, with a feeding tube in her nose and her frail body barely making a dent in the bed, Leanne’s eyes welled up with tears.
