After Angeline rushed over and arrived at Grand Asia Hospital, she could hear Sera Severe's despondent wailing from the hallways.
Jack sat in the waiting room, sullenly smoking.
The madam accompanied Sera by her side. She held her hand, her own eyes red from all that sobbing.
"Sera, everything will be fine. You have to be strong." Madam consoled her over and over.
Angeline ran out of the elevator, and the madam rushed toward her as soon as she saw her. She grabbed her hand and said urgently, "Miss Severe, you came just in time. Hurry and help Sera with her signature."
Angeline glanced over to Sera who was lying on a mobile sickbed. How could someone who had so much pride cry like it was nobody’s business?
Her hate for Sera was washed away by pity. She walked over to her and said, "Giving birth to a child is painful. You'll have to hang in there."
Sera looked at her with resentment. "Where’s my mom? Why isn't she here?"
"Aunty Connors is in the hospital keeping my dad company." Angeline did not mention how George fainted because of how mad Sera made him. She
could not, for Sera could not take another mental blow at this point in time.
Sera's face showed disappointment. "Is she... Disappointed in me?"
"Ahhh!" Her intense contractions made her ignore all o f that.
Angeline said, "I'll look for the doctor to give my signature.”
A nurse guided Angeline over to the doctor's office, but the office was the last room after taking a left turn at the end of the hallway.
Its location was very isolated, and even Sera's wailing was softer from over there.
On their way there, the nurse briefly explained about Sera’s current condition, "The mother is Rh-negative and has difficulty in giving birth, so it's very dangerous right now. Because she has a special status, we dare not perform the surgery on her. You would have to seek our person in charge. You also have to sign a copy of the hospital's statement of legal exemption and disclaimer."
Angeline was surprised. "Rh-negative?”
The entire Severe family was Rh-positive, which meant that Sera's unique blood type could only come from her mother."
