Chapter 2 Take Alyssa Away

Deborah was so anxious that she choked, “I will come over immediately. I will pay the fees. Doctor, you

must treat my daughter first.”

After hanging up the phone, Deborah remembered that she could not hail a taxi nearby. Ashton’s

house was a detached

there were few people nearby.

manor, and

Because of the anxiety, Deborah’s forehead was full of cold sweat, and she wanted to ask Ashton to let

the driver send her.

As soon as Deborah turned around, she saw Ashton enter the manor directly. The gate of the manor

closed mercilessly in front of her

eyes and locked again.

They had just been so close, and Ashton could hear what Deborah said in the phone call.

From here, Deborah had to walk for at least 1.2 miles before she could catch a taxi.

Deborah’s body was wet with snow. Her wet coat pressed against her body like a boulder, pressing

down on her back, and the chill

went straight into her bones.

Dragging her legs, Deborah walked forward with difficulty and anxiety step by step. Large drops of

sweat on her forehead dripped on

the white snow ground.

Although Deborah tried to walk faster, nearly an hour had passed when she got in a taxi and rushed to

the hospital ward.

As soon as Deborah entered the ward, she saw Alyssa’s thin body curled up on the bed.

The doctor had put Alyssa on the drip. Alyssa was afraid of being alone. Her face was pale, and her

eyes were red, but she bit her lips

and did not cry. She did not shout for her mother.

Deborah’s nose twitched. She suddenly felt regret. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have given

birth to Alyssa no matter what.

Alyssa wouldn’t have suffered with her at such a young age.

Deborah walked over and sat down by the bed. Deborah picked up Alyssa from the bed. ‘Alyssa, are

you still feeling uncomfortable?”

Alyssa was a little dizzy from the fever. When she saw her mother, her eyes were filled with

anticipation.

“Mom, did Dad agree to come? If he comes, I will be cured, right?”

Alyssa was only four years old, but she was very smart and sensible. She heard from the doctor that

her mother went to find her

father. Her father could donate his marrow to her, and then she would be cured.

Alyssa did not understand what bone marrow was. She only knew that her father was very powerful.

Alyssa had never been cared for by Ashton when she was young, but this could not stop her desire for

Ashton’s love.

When Alyssa saw other children being held up high in their father’s arms and heard the laughter of

other children, she would look

forward to it even more.

Deborah held Alyssa tightly in her arms and patted Alyssa gently. “Of course, your dad will agree. He is

busy now, but he will come

after his work is done. Dad loves you the most. How can he not be willing to help you treat your

illness?”

Alyssa was very happy. She was slowly coaxed to sleep by Deborah. Before Alyssa fell asleep, she did

not forget to say, “Are you sick, Mom? Why are you so cold? Let me hug you, and let’s sleep together.”

Deborah choked with so bs and wanted to reply to Alyssa, but she couldn’t say anything

Alyssa fell asleep. Deborah put her on the bed and sat by the bed. She propped her elbows up on the

edge of the bed, and she also

dozed off in a daze.

Deborah didn’t know how long she had slept. When she was half-asleep, she seemed to hear footsteps

coming in. Then she suddenly heard Alyssa’s sharp cry.

Deborah suddenly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Helen Bauer carrying Alyssa in her

arms. Helen coaxed Alyssa with a little madness, “Baby, you are my baby daughter.”

Deborah stood up. Alyssa had always been obedient and did not cry. Now she was really frightened.

She looked at Deborah and cried,

“Mom, Mom!”

Deborah did not care about anything else. She rushed up and grabbed Alyssa from Helen.

While the two were pushing each other, Helen suddenly loosened her hand. Alyssa fell down with her

head down and let out a sharp

cry.

Deborah’s heart suddenly tightened. When she was anxious to pick up Alyssa, she saw that there was

a big swollen bump on Alyssa’s

forehead.

Deborah had just picked up Alyssa and stood up when Helen immediately stag gered back and fell

down. Her head heavily hit the iron. frame on the bedside table.

Outside the ward, Ashton stepped in from the outside with a furious face. “Helen.)

Helen’s head was covered in blood. She stood up and pointed at Alyssa, crying. “My baby. She is mine.

That woman stole my baby and hit me.”

Deborah did not have time to explain when Ashton approached her and slapped her face.

Deborah was not on guard at all. She could not help but stag ger back a few steps. She watched as

Helen threw herself into Ashton’s arms with a face full of grievance and horror. Helen was gently

hugged by him.

Ashton instructed the bodyguard behind him and said in a cold voice, “Bring that child to Helen. She

will be Helen’s daughter from

now on.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
