Chapter 1221 Take The Child And Leave
Laney paused packing her things. She shook her head and smile bitterly. "My disappointment in Garrett is beyond this accident. There are more reasons for it."
A little surprised, Ian intended to ask more, but all of a sudden, Garrett stormed into the room.
The moment he saw Laney packing her things, Garrett's expression changed. He rushed to her side and held her hand in an attempt to stop what she was doing.
"Where are you taking the child?" Garrett exclaimed.
Gently lowering Garrett's hand, Laney took a steady breath before calmly saying, "I want to stay in a different hospital."
"No, I won't allow it." Garrett blocked her way. He met Laney's gaze and looked at her pleadingly.
"Are you leaving me? Or are you really just walking away like this?"
Knowing a foul temper would take her nowhere, Laney remained calm. "I won't leave you like this. I simply don't want to see you right now."
Garrett's hand landed on her shoulder with a firm grip. His low voice rumbled, "You already know that Kailee orchestrated everything. Why are you still so angry? Do you really have to leave? Can't we talk it out?"
All Laney could do was close her eyes tightly.
She felt exhausted both physically and mentally. There's no strength left in her body anymore. She could practically feel herself falling down. She could faint any second now.
Garrett had not yet noticed anything unusual about Laney.
His indignation clouded his better judgment. He felt as if he too was a victim. Why wouldn't Laney give him a chance?
"How could you be so heartless, Laney? This whole situation is painful for me too!"
Garrett was so overcome with emotions that his voice grew louder. "We were both victims here..."
"Wahhh!" The baby's crying interrupted Garrett's complaints.
With pursed lips, Laney silently went over to the baby. She picked her up, gently cradling her in her arms and rocking her back in forth.
Feeling the warmth of her mother's embrace, the baby gradually calmed down until she was back to a peaceful slumber.
Watching the heartfelt scene was a pinch in Garrett's chest. Guilt filled him like a storm.
What was he thinking just now?
If there was someone who should feel upset, it was Laney. She had suffered more than enough from the beginning to the end. Not only did he fail to apologize properly, he also raised his voice at her.
From where he was silently watching, Ian stepped out, sighed, and whispered to Garrett, "Mr. Harding, this hospital is under Kailee's name. Due to various reasons, Mrs. Harding has been unable to leave until now. But if Mrs. Harding is to stay here longer, we can't guarantee what Kailee would do to her. Leaving would be better for her and the baby."
Garrett finally regained his composure. His eyes darted over to Laney more guiltily. "I'm sorry, I didn't consider it carefully," he said.
Laney paid him no attention, focusing only on cooing to her child.
now.
Garrett felt otherwise and pursed his lips.
He opened his mouth, about to say something while looking at Laney's cold profile, but he ended up looking like a fish in a tank. In the end, no words came from his mouth.
In a tense and uncomfortable silence, they arrived at the hospital that Janet chose. Everything was ready for Laney's transfer since Janet had arranged it beforehand. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
In order to keep Kailee from causing any more trouble, Janet chose a maternity hospital under the Larson Group. Compared to the previous hospital, the condition there had to be at least ten times better. Janet even meticulously chose the attending doctors for Laney, making sure Kailee had no influence on them.
Seeing how much Janet prepared for her, Laney was deeply moved.
Janet had been sticking by her side since the start of her pregnancy. When she had hemorrhage during childbirth, it was Janet who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to handle everything, ensuring that both she and the baby were safe and sound.
Even now, Janet personally took charge of her switching hospitals. The only thing left for her to do was move to the arranged hospital.
With the amount of help Janet had given her, she could repay her kindness in her lifetime and it would still not be enough.
After seeing the hospital Janet had arranged, Garrett also fell silent.
He was Laney's husband yet he was not even half as attentive as Janet to Laney's needs. Knowing it laid an enormous guilt trip on him.
Perhaps this was one of the reasons why Laney was disappointed in him.
With a whole day filled with twists and turns, Laney's back hit the mattress and she immediately fell asleep with her child as soon as they arrived at the hospital. She deserved the rest considering how exhausting the day was.
Garrett knew better than to disturb them. So, he kept watch outside the door the whole night instead.
