âWell, donât think too much.

Rosalynn playfully teased.
Maggie blushed but eventually nodded.

The trio made their way to the VIP ward where Sanford was staying, pushing open the door.

Sanford was seated against the headboard, engrossed in using his tablet.
Ellie was peacefully dozing on the sofa.
Janiya was nowhere to be seen
Maggie wondered why Sanford hadnât replied to her message or requested her presence at the hospital.
Gazing at Sanfordâs striking face, she couldnât shake off the feeling that he appeared somewhat distant.
