    Lost in a sea of conflicting thoughts, Thssa was brought back to reality by the sound of the hospital

    room door opening. Someone hade in.


    With her keen senses, Thssa nced toward the door and saw Evelyn and Hertha stride in, their


    faces etched with urgent concern.


    Evelyn rushed to Thssa''s bedside with an anxious expression, tenderly taking her hand. "Thssa, I


    was beside myself when I heard you were hospitalized. You were fine at lunch; what on earth


    happened that you ended up here?"


    She held Thssa''s hand, squeezing it gently as if trying to transfer some of her own warmth to


    Thssa''s chilly fingers.


    "I''m okay, Mom. How did you find out I was in the hospital? Who told you?" Thssa was curious. She


    hadn''t been at the hospital long and hade straight from the Royal Estates. If Lysander hadn''t said


    anything, how could Evelyn have known?


    "Remember I saved Fitch''s number? I called him to check on you and the kids, and he told me you


    were admitted," Evelyn exined, her gaze full of sorrow as she examined Thssa''s bruised chin.


    "Your chin is all purple. Did Lysander hit you?"


    "What? Lysander hit you? That scoundrel!" Hertha red up upon hearing Evelyn''s words, rolling up


    her sleeves in a huff. "I swear, if I see Lysander, I''m gonna give him a piece of my mind!"


    Thssa appreciated Hertha''s protective rage, knowing she truly cared and wanted to defend her, but


    the thought of anyone standing up to Lysander seemed oundish. She hurried to reassure Evelyn and


    Hertha, "It''s not what you think. Lysander didn''t hit me."


    "Then what''s with your chin? And why were you suddenly hospitalized?" Hertha pressed, eager for


    answers.


    Thssa looked at Evelyn, who was seated beside her bed holding her hand, then turned her gaze to


    Hertha standing nearby, her face filled with worry.


    The profound and genuine concern in their eyes overwhelmed her.


    In theirpassionate gaze, Thssa''s battered heart felt instantly mended.


    She was loved and worried about by her family; she was fortunate.


    "Lysander was questioning why I ran away. He grabbed my chin a bit too hard, and I bruise easily. I''m


    in the hospital for a precautionary measure to safeguard the pregnancy," Thssa exined calmly,


    her tone moreforting than rmed.


    "What, you''re pregnant again?"


    "What, you''re pregnant again?"


    Hertha and Evelyn eximed in unison, both staring at Thssa with a mixture of astonishment and


    shock.


    Once the surprise settled, Hertha eagerly reached out to touch Thssa''s belly, her palm resting on the


    soft curve. "You mean to say there''s a new life—or rather, lives—growing in there?"


    Evelyn''s face went pale with worry, "You''re pregnant again?"


    Thssa''s first pregnancy had been a harrowing experience, delivering quadruplets and barely making


    it through alive. The thought of her going through that ordeal again was terrifying.


    Instead of feeling joy at the news of the pregnancy, Evelyn''s first reaction was concern for Thssa''s


    well-being and whether she could survive another trip through the gauntlet.


    Smiling, Thssa nodded at Hertha, who bent over to feel her stomach, and then at Evelyn, who had


    stepped back to give Hertha space. "Yes, Mom. The kids are going to have little brothers or sisters.


    You''re going to be a grandmother to a few more kids."
