Selma Payne's POV:
In the face of my repeated insistence, Aldrich finally wavered. After I mentioned my child and my safety, he finally agreed to help my father.
Before he left, he called my phone and put it next to the bed, saying, "I'll keep an eye on the situation here. If there's any accident, I swear I'll come back as soon as possible, okay?"
I didn't have the strength to speak anymore. I nodded randomly as I watched Aldrich leave, turning back to look at me with every step he took.
"Now, please tell us the current situation," I told the medical staff.
Even though they looked as if everything was under their control, their slight panic didn't escape my eyes. It was just that Aldrich was so concerned that he was confused and focused all his attention on me. Otherwise, he would have exploded on the spot if he had realized that the medical staff members were acting abnormally.
