Out of Ashes Into His Heart novel Chapter 53

"Mrs. Gould had a sudden heart attack and was rushed to the hospital. She's currently in emergency treatment."

What?

I was shocked. I hadn't expected Amelia to fall so seriously ill, especially since the last time I saw her, she was only physically weak...

"Do you want to go to the hospital? Let's go together."

I nodded quickly. She had always treated me like her own daughter, and when I heard she was in trouble, I couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

"Let's go."

Soon, we drove straight to the hospital.

When we arrived outside the emergency room, Victor and Mandy sat on a bench in the corridor.

As if hearing someone approaching, she instinctively looked up. When she saw Tom and me walking toward them, she immediately stood up and blocked my way. "Grace? What are you doing here? You're not welcome!"

I gave her a cold glance. "Who do you think you are? Get out of my way!"

My firm response surprised Mandy. She frowned and said, "It's because of you that Mrs. Gould is like this. How dare you show up here? You're not even divorced from Gavin yet and already involved with another man."

I didn't respond to her and walked past her straight toward the emergency room, but before I could get far, Victor stopped me. "Grace, can't you understand human language? Didn't you hear what Mandy just said? You're not welcome here!"

I felt a chill in my heart. I knew he had always favored her, but I didn't expect that, at this critical moment, he would still care about whether she felt upset.

Amelia had really been blind to marry such a man.

I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. "I'm here to visit Mrs. Gould, not to argue with you."

"You think I want to argue with you?" Mandy quickly walked over to Victor's side. "Mr. Gould, look at her. After she found herself a lover, she's become so arrogant that she doesn't even listen to you!"

At that moment, Tom seemed to have found a chair from somewhere. He gently pressed down on my shoulder, urging me to sit. "Mrs. Gould is blessed. She will be fine."

I nodded, absent-mindedly repeating after him, "Yes, she'll be fine..."

I didn't know how much time passed, but hurried footsteps suddenly came from the corridor's other end. I instinctively looked up and saw Gavin rushing over.

"Gavin..." Mandy immediately walked up to him. "You're finally here..."

"How is my mom?" His face was full of worry. "How could she have a sudden heart attack?"

She sighed. "I'm not sure about the details. I just heard Mrs. Gould wasn't feeling well, so I thought I would visit her. I didn't expect this to happen..."

He instinctively wanted to say something, but his eyes narrowed when his gaze swept over me, and his face immediately darkened.

Just then, the emergency room door opened, and the doctor walked out, removing his mask.
