Chapter 119
Serena was moved to a private ward in just a few minutes. The hospital’s best doctors hurried over to examine her, but the results were not promising.
Melinda stood outside the ward, struggling to hold back her tears.
Madelyn came over after making all the necessary arrangements. Melinda spoke before she could say anything, “Thank you so much for today.”
“Where’s the child’s father?” Madelyn asked.
Melinda had knelt before everyone in desperation and bore all the pain alone, but the child’s father was nowhere to be seen.
Mentioning the child’s father turned Melinda’s face pale.
Madelyn apologized, “Sorry, you don’t have to answer that.”
“Rena’s adopted, so I don’t know who her parents are. If I do, I’d ask them why they were so cruel to abandon her.”
Madelyn was taken aback. So, Melinda wasn’t even a single mother.
Noticing Madelyn’s silence, Melinda thought she had scared her. She smiled bitterly. “Sorry if I frightened you.”
“No, I was just surprised,” Madelyn replied.
Before they could talk more, Andrew and Benson approached, followed by Jacob.
Madelyn’s expression softened as she walked toward Andrew. “Why are you here?”
She gave Benson a look, annoyed that he had called Andrew despite her instructions not to.
Benson averted his gaze, while Andrew said, “Don’t blame him. I told him to report any situation while you’re out.”
“I said everything’s fine, but he made a big deal out of it” Madelyn complained.
“He wasn’t making a big deal, he was just worried about you,” Andrew said. Benson felt grateful for his wisdom and understanding.
Jacob had briefed Andrew on what had happened as they came over.
Andrew had been pulling a long face and finally relaxed a bit upon seeing Madelyn. He turned to Jacob and said, “Fire all the doctors and nurses involved today.”
Jacob was shocked. He instinctively looked at Madelyn, who showed no intention of pleading for them. If Andrew hadn’t said it, she would have called Roger herself. Such medical staff only tarnished the hospital’s reputation.
Seeing no other option, Jacob nodded. “Yes, I’ll handle it now.”
“Are you ready to go?” Andrew held Madelyn’s hand.
“Wait a minute,” she replied and turned back to the ward..
Melinda was standing by the bed. Serena seemed more comfortable and was sleeping peacefully now that she was receiving fluids.

Melinda stood up when she saw Madelyn, “Mrs. Miller
“My name’s Madelyn Garcia,” Madelyn said softly.
Melinda was stunned. “My name starts with an M, too. I’m Melinda Baxter.”
Madelyn smiled. “What a coincidence!”
Her friendliness brought a small smile to Melinda’s face.
Madelyn nodded. She reminded Melinda while looking at the sleeping Serena, “Everything is arranged here. Just stay with her.”
“Thank you so much!” Melinda said, her voice choking with emotion. This was probably the most hopeful day she had experienced in a long time.
Madelyn left the hospital with Andrew after giving a few more reminders.
Andrew held her hand in the car. A long message from Melinda came in, filled with gratitude and repeated promises to repay her.
Madelyn replied with a simple, “You’re welcome.”
Watching her smile at her phone, Andrew said with a tone of helpless affection, “You’re still as silly as
