Looking as if she was hiding something, Miss Linda’s eyes flickered past Ysabelle as she replied, “I handed the child over to Miss Rosa and asked her to leave the child in the fire.”
A fresh swell of rage rose in Ysabelle.
“So you’re telling me that you’re not sure if the child died or not.”
“I’m so sorry Miss Ysabelle. When I saw that the child was not breathing and crying, I assumed that the child was dead. That was why I did not put too much care into it.” “You.” Ysabelle seethed, “get Miss Rosa here right away!” Quivering in fear, Miss Linda reached for her phone and contacted Miss Rosa. Miss Rosa had already resigned from her position at the psychiatric hospital. Seeing how Miss Linda was asking her about the incident, Miss Rosa was frightened. Stuttering, Miss Rosa told Miss Linda what had actually happened. After ending the call, Miss Linda told Ysabelle, “Miss Ysabelle, Miss Rosa had returned to her hometown and she’s currently not in Jehovah City. She said that since the child was already dead and there were other people guarding the place where the fire broke out, she left the child at the dumpster and didn’t expect that someone would pick up the child…”
Seeing how Ysabelle’s face was distorted in anger, Miss Linda quickly added, “But I know where Rosa’s hometown is, do you want me to go get her…” Grabbing the teacup on the coffee table, Ysabelle aimed it at Miss Linda and shouted, “What’s the point in getting her here? Will it change anything?” It was already a fact that Meredith and her daughter were alive. There was no point in trying to find out who was to be blamed.
Ysabelle did not even wish to spend another minute on Miss Linda. Shooting a cold glance at Miss Linda, Ysabelle hissed, “If Meredith dares to cause a scene using that child of hers, I’ll make sure you’d be sorry for what you did!”
She then left the place furiously.
Ysabelle then went into a breakfast place and bought some food before visiting Josiah at the hospital.
When with Josiah, Ysabelle instantly turned into a gentle and soft person.
Taking out the food she bought from the breakfast bar, Ysabelle said, “Josiah, I made this sandwich myself. Here, try some of this.”
Staring at the side of Ysabelle’s face, Josiah thought that she sort of looked like the Meredith that he knew of back then.
He recalled when they just got married, Meredith had tried to prepare different dishes for him.
Meredith did not stop preparing food for him even when he did not even bother to try her cooking. In the end, he finally started eating the meals she prepared.
If it was not for the time when he saw Yoel eating from a lunchbox that was prepared by Meredith, he would have continued eating what Meredith had prepared for him.
Turning to look at Josiah, Ysabelle noticed he had his eyes fixed on her. Feeling slightly pleased, she smiled and said, “Josiah, here, let me feed you.”
She thought that Josiah would reject her but he did not.
Placing the sandwich near his mouth, she started a conversation with Josiah. “Oh right, I heard from the doctor that Yena’s condition is stable and if we change the environment for her, it would help her to recover faster.”
Josiah simply nodded his head faintly.
The doctor had already told him about this.
The doctor suggested he bring Yena back to the place that she was familiar with, so that she could also be surrounded by people that she was familiar with too. “Josiah, why not bring Yena back to your place?” “Let’s see.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“If you decided to bring Yena home, let me know. I can come over to take care of her since I’m taking a break for the next few months.”
“That’s alright. We have enough people back home to look after her.”
“But the doctor did mention that it’s best that Yena is surrounded by people that she is familiar with. Plus, I am Yena’s best friend and I’m sure Yena would love for me to be by her side.” With a sincere look on her face, Ysabelle begged, “Josiah, promise me, hmm? I really can’t bring myself to see Yena growing paler and thinner by day anymore.”
