The week flew by in a flash.
Hannah's leg was much better, and she could walk without crutches. So, she got Jeo and Pandora to handle her discharge procedures and was ready to go home and rest.
When she was discharged, Cornelia came to see her off. "Hannah, if you ever need my help after you get home, you better let me know ASAP."
Hannah threw her arms around Cornelia and hugged her tight, tears streaming down her face. "Nelly..."
"What's got you all teary?" Cornelia asked, patting her on the back.
Wiping away her tears, Hannah said, "If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have made it this time. Cornelia, if there's anything I can do to help you in the future, I'll do everything in my power."d2
Cornelia felt guilty because she didn't get her family to rescue Hannah in time, which resulted in her injury. So, she didn't dare to respond. "Hannah, let's not dwell on the past. No matter where you are in the future, make sure you're happy."
Hannah nodded, "Yeah, we should both be happy. Anyway, I gotta go. My parents have sent a car for me."
"Cornelia," Hannah said. "About him..."
Hannah knew who Cornelia was referring to. She didn't want to hear anything about Steven, so she cut her off. "Nelly, I've been relying on others to take care of me all these years. I'm totally dependent on them, and now I can't live independently. After I get home, I want to spend some time with my parents, slow down, and then decide whether I want to continue my acting career."
