Timothy crouched down. He forced himself to rein in his distraught as he held Gregory by
the shoulder and asked. The clouded look in Gregory’s eyes finally started to disappear.
“Uncle Tim…” he called out weakly. His voice was laced with fear and uncertainty. It
escaped Timothy’s notice as Tessa was all he could think of at the moment.
He tightened his grip on Gregory’s shoulder as he pressed, “Gregory, quick. Tell me what
happened to your mother and the baby!”
Timothy’s words seemed to snap Gregory out of his daze as the latter started wailing. He
flung himself into Timothy’s arms and cried his heart out.
“Mommy was bleeding so much, Uncle Tim. I kept calling her. She didn’t respond to me. So
much blood.” Gregory was so terrified, his voice trembled with each word. He could barely
speak coherently.
Timothy was beside himself with worry, but he told himself to stay strong as he comforted
Gregory. ‘It’s okay, Gregory. Don’t cry. Your Mommy will be fine.”
“But the doctor said Mommy might die.” Gregory repeated what the doctor said earlier.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtColor drained from Timothy’s face when he heard this. “How could this happen?” he
gasped in shock.

Sabrina arrived just in time to hear what Gregory said. Her heart ached for Timothy who
crumbled upon hearing the news.
“You need to stay calm, Mr. Reinhart. Tess is a blessed person. I’m sure she’ll be fine.”
“That’s my sister in there! How am I supposed to stay calm?”
Timothy vented at Sabrina with reddened eyes. Sabrina didn’t take offense as she knew
how distressed Timothy was right now.
She knew he was only reacting this way because he was concerned about his sister.
Furthermore, she knew there was probably no way of calming him down now, no matter
what she said. In the end, she chose to take the crying Gregory aside and console him
instead.
All the adults were in a mess and none of them were able to care for the little boy, so she
had to help out with that. The situation would only worsen if Gregory cried himself sick.
Sabrina gently comforted the boy in her arms. “It’s okay, Gregory. Your Mommy will be
alright.”
“You need to trust the doctors. They will make sure your Mommy gets better.”
“Don’t cry anymore, Gregory. Your Mommy will be very sad when she wakes up and finds
out that you’ve cried until your eyes are all swollen.”
Eventually, after all of Sabrina’s consoling, some of her words managed to stop Gregory’s
tears. He rubbed his eyes and sniffled as he looked up at Sabrina and asked hoarsely, “Will
my Mommy really be okay, Miss Sabrina?”
“She will. Your Mommy wouldn’t dream of leaving an adorable boy like you.”
Sabrina nodded confidently, but deep down inside, she fervently hoped that Tessa would
bet alright. As Sabrina was busy comforting Gregory, Stefania and Tobias appeared at the
end of the corridor.
They rushed over as soon as they heard that Tessa got into an accident. Both their
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmexpressions were grim. Stefania hurried over to Nicholas with her anxiety fully displayed
on her face..
“How’s Tessa? How’s the baby?” “The doctors are performing a C-section. Tessa has signs
of serious hemorrhaging. She might not survive the procedure.”
Nicholas could barely get the last few words out. Stefania was shocked. “How could this
be?”
Tobias’ expression was somber. He turned to his assistant and instructed, “Get the hospital
director here, along with all the other specialists. Tell them the Sawyers are asking them to
come.”
“Yes, Mr. Sawyer.” The assistant did as told without delay. Soon, the hospital director and
all the various specialists gathered in the corridor..
They were quietly discussing among themselves. Nicholas ignored them. His mind and
soul were with his wife, who was still in the surgical theater.
Thus, Tobias had to take the lead. He addressed the crowd and instructed, “I’m sure
you’ve gotten the gist of the situation. I want you to save the mother and the baby who’re
in there right now, no matter what it takes. The Sawyers will reward you handsomely for
your efforts.”
