My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 1232

Chapter 1232

Ninian was not able to sleep well that night.

The thought of Everett falling off the balcony was torturing her.

As she recalled it, she had a feeling that she had a similar memory many years back.

At that time, she was still young. It was vague, and she could not recall the memory in detail.

There was this teenage boy who was courted by many people.

They would also meet on the balcony. He might look skinny and short, but he grew tall pretty quickly.

He did not talk much and would always watch her and hear her laugh.

Her memory was so hazy that when she woke up from her dream, she could barely remember it.

When she opened her eyes, she was laying sideways, facing the wall. She was panting, gasping for breath. "Grapie? You're awake!"

She turned over and saw George standing beside her bed. He tucked her in gently. "George..." She spoke in a hoarse voice, but he gestured for her to stop talking.

"Don't talk. Drink some warm water first."

He took a cup of warm water and put a straw in it before handing it to her

Ninian's lips were dry. So, she gulped down the water without hesitating.

The temperature of the water was just right, as if George had added medicine to it. The water tasted sweet and refreshing, soothing her dry throat. She took several sips of it before putting it away.

George then put the thermos cup away.

"Is the wound on your back still hurting? Mrs. Tuffin reapplied the medicine twice in the evening. Are you feeling any better?"

She nodded.

The wound on her back did not feel as painful anymore.

She took her phone and looked at the time. It was only after five in the morning.

She typed on her phone asking, [George, why are you here? Why didn't you go to rest?"

His eyes were bloodshot.

"I'm okay. I'm a little worried about you, so I can't sleep."

She looked at him. Her heart ached as she shook her head.

"Don't worry. I'm okay." George reached out and

brushed her loose hair on her cheeks. He looked at her small face and sighed, "How long has it been since we separated from Ufrya? You lost weight again. How are you doing in the entertainment industry?" He had actually looked it up and knew everything that had happened to her, but he just wanted to listen to her talk about her life.

He knew that his baby sister was quite popular in the entertainment industry. Even though people talked badly about her, she gained numerous fans by herself.

His heart ached for her, but he was also proud of her.

She nodded and typed to reply to him. [I'm doing good. I think I enjoy being a part of it.]

Her eyes lit up when she talked about it. It was as if she was talking about the dream that she was yearning for.

George's heart sank a little, but he did not say anything

more.

She took out her phone. She hesitated a little, but she could not hold herself back as she asked, [Is Everett...]

He sighed in his heart and did not show it as he said, "

4/4

Everett is doing fine. Duncan sent him to the hospital. His wounds are all just surface wounds, and his bones and muscles are not hurt. He'll be fine after some treatment.

"As for his mental state, it's still unstable. The doctor gave him a sedative, and he's probably in a deep sleep now. Once there's news of him waking up tomorrow, I'll update you about him." She listened carefully. She then let out a sigh of relief and nodded with a gentle smile.

She then replied, [Good to know he's doing fine.]
