Attracted By My Ex-wife

That evening, with his parents' consent, Eddy stayed the night inside Bob's mother's private room to keep her company. However, Eddy woke to discover an empty hospital bed, and his innocent face grew slightly pale.

Bob's mother was not in good shape and had been confined for a while now, with her medical state unstable and not within normal limits. Eddy checked if she had fallen to the floor on the other side, but she was nowhere in sight. He wondered where she could have gone at this time.

Worried, Eddy thought of his assurance to Bob's father that he would keep an eye on her.

He immediately got up and hurried outside the room. He winced and pressed his lips together tightly as he took off to find the nearest nurse on-duty.

The nurse, who was aware of Bob's mother's illness, didn't expect her to leave the room. She telephoned the hospital's security and promptly sought to sort out the situation. For a brief moment, there was chaos and confusion.

After Anne showed up and looked at the present situation, she gave a long frown of misery and shook her head.

"Mom, I'm so sorry. This is all my fault. I didn't watch over Auntie carefully to make sure she's safe and okay. I'm to blame because I was too sleepy to stay up." Eddy stood in one corner, slightly lowering his head. Guilt was written all over his sweet, naive face.

Anne was heartbroken to see him like that. She looked down and held Eddy in her arms. She sighed and shook her head repeatedly. "Come here, silly. How could this incident be your fault? Who knows, she might have urgent matters to deal with. Don't worry. She will come back soon."

Although she said so, Anne couldn't dismiss the concern she felt for Bob's mother. After all, her mental state was unstable now.

"What's going on here? Is there something wrong? Why are you all looking for me? I was hungry, so I went out to buy some food. There's no need to panic." Suddenly, Bob's mother's voice echoed from down the hall.
