To prove her point, Sonia stood from the wheelchair and attempted to do a spin for Ariana.
She quickly let out an âouchâ and nearly hurt her waist.
Sarah gently pushed Sonia back into the wheelchair, saying, âEnough.
Stay put.
I donât want to visit another patient.
â
Sonia pouted and muttered a retort to Sarah, prompting laughter from everyone.
This lightened the atmosphere in the room, lifting the weight of sadness.
Holden watched Ariana.
Seeing her smile brought a faint smile to his face.
Sonia moved closer to Ariana, holding her hand with tears in her eyes.
Ariana had lost considerable weight, her face pale and her breathing labored.
Seeing this, Sonia could no longer hold back her tears and cried.
âYou have to hang in there,â Sonia said through her sobs.
âDonât cry,â Ariana said softly, cooing Sonia as if she were a child.
âIâm fine.
Donât worry.
â
Sonia clung to her hand, weeping quietly.
Sarah joined them, hugging them both, tears streaming down her face.
The once cheerful atmosphere turned sad again.
Arianaâs lips trembled as tears welled up in her eyes.
She knew she couldnât cry.
If she did, it would only deepen everyoneâs sorrow.
So, she held back and decided to share some good news instead.

âIâve found my daughter,â Ariana announced with a smile.
âAdele is my child.
â

âWeâve known this for a while,â Sonia replied, smiling through her tears.
âShawn has already spread the news, along with Melonâs identity.
Everyone now knows that Adele and Melon are twins, the future heirs of the Fredrick Group.
â
Arianaâs focus shifted as she inquired of Holden, âDid you arrange Shawnâs announcement?â
âIndeed,â Holden replied with a nod.
âIt seems weâve come full circle,â Ariana remarked, exhaling deeply.
âThis isnât necessarily unfavorable.
It allows Melon to rejoin the Fredrick family with legal standing.
â
She then said to Sonia and the others, âI have faith in Holdenâs ability to raise the two children well.
He has always been an excellent father.
â
But Holden promptly refuted her claim.
âYouâre wrong.
I cannot manage two children alone.
Iâm overwhelmed by work.
Left to my own devices, theyâd subsist on takeout for every meal.
Iâd entrust them to Shawn,â Holden said, his voice slightly trembling.
âAre you truly willing to leave them behind? They would be without a mother to care for them.
â
âHoldenâ¦â Ariana tried hard to suppress her sorrow.
She looked into his eyes and said, âPlease, donât be like this.
