Upon learning that Page was taken to the emergency room, with the help of a nurse, Moira quickly found her mother sitting on a bench. “Mom

“How is Page?”
Tve paid the money, but she hasn’t come out yet
Jane had just called her daughter, asking her to transfer 7 thousand dollars. After paying the money, she had been waiting there.
Moira glanced at the tightly closed door of the emergency room. She sat down next to her mother and asked, “Wasn’t Page in good health before How did she suddenly collapse!”
Jane saghed. The doctor said it might be cerebral infarction, but we’ll have to wait for the results to know for sure.”
Hearing
the words “cerebral infarction Moira felt a wave of worry.
“Have you called Virgil? He’s Page’s only son. If she needs surgery or anything, a family member will have to sign
“I called him, but no one answered. Maybe he’s busy right now.
Moira also sent a message. He said he would call her back when he saw her message
She looked down at her phone and saw no new message
Just as she was about to put her phone away, it suddenly rang. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw Virgil’s name on the screen. She quickly answered and put the phone to her car. “Did you see the message. I kem you?”
“Yes, I did. How is my mother now?”
“I don’t know the situation yet. She’s in the emergency room. Hurry up and come over. The doctor might need a signature….”
If a signature is needed, you can sign on my behalf.”
Moira wanted t
to say that a family member’s signature was required” but then she remembered they hadn’t divorced yet. They were still husband
Virgil was Page’s adopted son, whom she had raised for over twenty years, making Moira her daughter–in–law in name as well,
Hearing the blaring car horns on the other end of the line, Moira guessed that he was probably rushing to the hospital. It was peak traffic time, and accidents were likely to happen.
She quickly agreed. “Alright, I will handle things here.”
Shortly after, she added, “Focus on driving and stay safe. I’ll hang up now.”
There was a low “hmm” in response.
After hanging up the phone, Moira’s heart was still beating a bit fast. She put her phone back in her bag and covered her flushed cheeks with her
Talking to him still made her heart beat faster.
Jane noticed her daughter in a daze with her hands on her face and asked, puzzled, “Is Virgil coming?”
Hearing her mother’s voice, Moira quickly snapped out of it and quickly replied, “Virgil said he’s on his way.

Chapter 210
Virgil arrived twenty minutes later. When the doctor came out, he was the one who communicated with him
Moira stood next to her mother as they received the news that Page had been diagnosed with a cerebral infarction.
Since she was still unconscious, she needed to be transferred to the ICU for observation.
Moira and Virgil accompanied Page to the intensive care unit,
They could only accompany her to the door. Once it closed, Moira turned to look at Conrad. He appeared as composed as usual, not showing much tension. However, upon closer inspection, one could see his brows tightly furrowgl
He was clearly so worried.
After all, this was his adoptive mother, who had been with him for tw
twenty–three years
Moira wanted to comfort him by saying that Page, would be alright, but since she was in the ICU, a sign of a serious condition, she felt it was inappropriate to make such assurances without medical expertise. So she changed her approach, asking “Have you had dinner yet?”
