CHAPTER 105: CHAPTER 105: LUNA SAW HER MOTHER

"Alright, sit tight, I’ll take you to the hospital right away!"

The closest one from here is Kybourne Hospital, so Annelise didn’t specifically ask Uncle Ford to take her to Kybourne Hospital.

It took about ten minutes.

They arrived at the entrance of Kybourne Hospital.

The entire journey was just over ten minutes, yet it felt as long as a century to Annelise.

As soon as Uncle Ford stopped the car, Annelise impatiently opened the door and hurriedly ran towards the third floor.

This made Uncle Ford somewhat surprised.

"What’s going on with Miss Winter? Why does she hold her stomach and head to the third floor?"

From Uncle Ford’s memory, the third floor of Kybourne Hospital had orthopedics, cardiology, and andrology departments, and no other clinics.

So why rush to the third floor?

Uncle Ford remembered, the last time he was in Kybourne looking for someone, he also ran into Annelise on the third floor.

It seemed very peculiar.

The third floor, ward

Elias Warner held a Peter Rabbit in his hand, one that could talk. He had recorded his voice into the Peter Rabbit.

He had specifically instructed the shop owner to make it last longer and to use his voice for storytelling.

The shop owner had never met a customer with so many requests, but seeing Elias’s appearance, he deemed Elias to be someone of power and influence, and didn’t dare offend him, fulfilling all his requests.

But the shop owner’s wife thought instead that Elias must really love his child.

As Elias was about to leave, she even asked him how old his child was.

She casually gifted Elias a dancing duck.

Seeing Elias holding the Peter Rabbit and a small duck, Luna joyfully danced with excitement, standing up on the hospital bed.

Perhaps Luna hadn’t fully recovered, so after dancing for a while, she was still gasping heavily.

Elias hurriedly embraced Luna, handing her the two toys.

What’s going on? Every time he was with Luna, there was a sense of warmth.

Could it be that he was really getting old and yearning to have a child as adorable as Luna?

Elias doubted himself.

Luna held the two toys in her little fair hands happily, but her round eyes still showed a tinge of sorrow.

"What’s the matter? Tell daddy, who upset you? My dear Luna!"

Elias brushed Luna’s little upturned nose.

"Hehe," Luna laughed.

Seems like she had forgotten her worries just now.

"Daddy, you finally came to see me. Where have you been these past few days? Why didn’t you come to see me? Are you abandoning Luna again?"

The sweet, soft voice was full of grievance.

Luna’s long eyelashes blinked as she cupped Elias’s face, looking pitiful.

"Daddy’s been busy, so I couldn’t come to see Luna these days. Isn’t daddy here now, taking time to see you?"

Elias pinched Luna’s cheeks.

"Daddy, can you take me home? I don’t want to stay in the hospital anymore! I want to be with daddy and mommy properly!"

Luna pouted, her big round eyes looking like she was coercing Elias.

Elias was stunned, although he liked Luna, he never thought of taking Luna home.

Flora just happened to walk in from outside.

He was holding Luna’s files.

Seeing Elias being close to Luna, Flora smiled warmly.

This image of a father getting close to a child was particularly comforting to him.

"Flora, Luna said she wants to go home with me, do you think it’s possible?"

When Elias asked, he himself didn’t understand why he asked Flora this question.

Flora was surprised hearing Elias talk about taking Luna home, and for a moment, he forgot to answer.

"Is it not possible to take her home?"

Only after Elias asked again did Flora come to his senses.

"Of course, if taking Luna home and letting her spend some time with you would benefit her condition!"

Flora patted Luna’s head.

"Really? Uncle Flora?" Luna clapped her hands, extremely happy, then glanced at Elias.

"Daddy, did you hear that? So, can you take me home?"

"Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll take Luna home. Dr. Flora, please also contact Luna’s mother and let her know, so she doesn’t worry when she comes to see Luna and can’t find her!"

For some reason, Elias still hoped Luna’s mother would come to see Luna.

"Don’t worry, Mr. Warner, I will!" Flora had also been trying to reach Annelise by phone these days, but couldn’t get through.

He worried about this too.

So he didn’t expect that when Luna was taken by Elias for a few days, it would coincide with Annelise coming to see her child.

"Alright, I’ll go handle Luna’s temporary discharge, and then take her home! Don’t worry, I’ll hire a professional to take care of Luna!"

Elias assured Flora.

Flora nodded, trusting Elias completely.

"Daddy will go complete the procedure, you wait for me here like a good girl!"

Elias gently stroked Luna’s hair, comforting her.

"Okay!" Luna nodded vigorously, happier than ever at the thought of going to daddy’s home soon.

Elias put her down and went out of the ward.

In the stairwell corner, Annelise, dressed in a janitor uniform, was pacing back and forth with a broom in hand.

Seeing Elias come out from Luna’s room, she finally put down the broom and walked towards Luna’s ward.

Standing by the trash can at the door, she peered inside for a long while.

Engrossed in the joy of being taken by Elias, Luna didn’t notice Annelise.

Just as before, she stood on the bed, jumping around.

Seeing Luna looking much better than before in Breslin, Annelise felt quite relieved.

She wanted to reach out and hug her.

But she held back.

She couldn’t reveal herself yet; if Renee found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Sorrowfully turning away, she saw Elias walking toward Luna’s ward with documents in hand, and quickly turned back, returning to the corner, continuing to sweep.

When Elias returned to the ward, he waved the documents in his hand, saying to Luna, "Now you can go home with daddy, come on, let daddy hold you!"

Luna stood on tiptoe, giving Elias a kiss on the cheek.

The little body was picked up by Elias.

After bidding Flora goodbye, Elias carried Luna out of the ward.

Luna laid on Elias’s broad shoulder, her little eyes blinking as she observed everything.

When her gaze landed on Annelise, she cheered with excitement.

Pointing at Annelise, she shouted, "Mommy, mommy!"

Annelise was startled and ran down the stairs madly from the third floor.

Elias, hearing Luna call for her mommy, turned around but saw no one.

After all, this was the VIP ward, with little traffic.

"Daddy, I saw mommy, she’s downstairs!"

Luna pointed in the direction below.

Elias proceeded downstairs.
