Chapter 446 After exchanging a few pleasantries, Kayla reluctantly left the ward. She said as she walked out, “Mom, take care of yourself. I'll go hfor now, but I'll make ssoup and cback to keep you company in a couple of days." "Alright, you're such a good girl," Myra responded with a gentle smile, just like before.
Once Kayla had left, the ward fell silent.
Myra reached out, gently brushing her fingers across Dexter's vacant face.
It was as if she were speaking to him but also to herself, "I don't believe you could've just fallen sick like this. I don't believe you'd ever want to end your life. The doctor said you were agitated, but the only one by your side at the twas Kayla. What could have possibly happened to you that would affect you like this?" As she lowered her head, she thought of something that she hadn't told Kayla earlier. She wanted to let her know that she still had smoney left, which was the two million dollars she had taken from Sebastian.

reputation.
Taking a deep breath, Myra waited until Dexter had fallen asleep again before she quietly slipped out of the ward to find the nurse who had been doing rounds earlier.
She needed answers.
What really happened to Dexter? Why did Kayla say he tried to kill himself? Would someone actually use a pillow or blanket to suffocate themselves like that? The nurse shook her head and said, "Mrs. Fuller, I honestly don't know what happened. I only remember when I walked in, your daughter was shouting, saying your husband was going to kill himself. She toldto get help.
"When I rushed in, your husband's face was already turning purple. He almost died back then, but when we checked, we found that the IV needle in his hand had been pulled out by him. The wound was unmistakable. As for why it happened... I really don't know." The nurse spoke in great detail, sharing everything she knew.
Myra pressed her palm tightly to her hand and asked again, “So, at the time, it was just my husband and daughter in the ward? No one else?" "Yes, just them." The nurse nodded.
"Alright, I got it. Thank you." Myra clenched her fists until her fists turned pale, but her expression remained calm as she smiled softly at the nurse.
That smile was unexpectedly beautiful.
The nurse was momentarily taken aback, remembering how, when she was younger, Myra was known as the most beautiful woman in Khogend.
Thad passed, but it had treated her well, giving her a grace that others could only envy.
Caught up in the moment, the nurse blurted out without thinking twice, "Mrs. Fuller, you might want to keep an eye on your adopted daughter. She doesn't like a good person... She looks so shrewd, like she's plotting something..." As soon as the words left her mouth, the nurse immediately regretted it. She realized how inappropriate they sounded.

"Mrs. Fuller, I'm so sorry. That's not what I meant at all. I probably read too many and just have a habit of thinking the worst of people. Please don't mind me."
To her surprise, Myra didn't seem angry or upset. She replied with 'a' e gentle tone, "Thank you." "Oh, n-no problem." Feeling embarrassed, the nurse quickly left.
As Myra returned to Dexter's side, her mind was a tangled mess.
The quiet ward seemed to echo with her barely audible murmurs, Rayla... He's your father. soft and distant.
