Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 224 A New House

Excitement filled Bailey in an instant. “Christina, are you going to get a divorce?”

Her question rendered Christina helpless. “What are you talking about? I’m just buying a house.”a

“That’s right. You’re buying a new house even when there’s already a big one available. That means you’re separating from your husband, right?”

Christina was nonplussed at Bailey’s insistence. There was really nothing wrong between her and Nathaniel.

“Contact a reliable real estate agent for me. I’ll explain to you afterward,” Christina said.

Shortly after the call, Gabrielle sent over the contact details of a real estate agent.

Christina then got into a taxi and headed for the hospital.

Even though she couldn’t be there every day, she called the doctor daily to ask about her mother’s situation.

This was the main reason why she wanted to resign–she wanted to spend more time with Sharon.

Lately, she had saved quite a bit of money. The first thing she did upon gaining financial capability was to improve Sharon’s and her living conditions.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Christina found the attending doctor to inquire about Sharon’s condition.

“Although Ms. Zapler has regained consciousness, she suffered trauma to the brain. Since her hippocampus was injured, her memories might be fragmented. You should prepare yourself for that.”

When Christina heard that, she felt a piercing pain in her heart.

“Can I bring her home?”

The doctor could tell that Christina was only in her twenties, but she looked more mature than her peers with that firm look in her eyes.

“Yes. In your mother’s case, her family’s companion will be helpful for her condition.”

After a while, Christina entered the ward, where Sharon was sleeping peacefully. She prepared a warm towel and wiped the latter’s face before tucking the latter in.

Christina stayed by Sharon’s side for a long time. It was only when the visiting hours were over that she left the hospital.
