Chapter 88
"It's the patient I told you about before, the one making noise in the middle of the night, who sent someone to apologize. They said they won't do it again." Marilyn was very surprised. She had just complained to her daughter, and the person came to apologize.
Looking at her daughter with puzzled eyes, she asked, "Did you tell Seb about this?"
Stephanie shook her head and said, "I didn't say anything... but I ran into that person earlier."
Marilyn was stunned, "What the hell is going on?"
Stephanie didn't want her mother to worry, so she didn't say much, only saying, "Uh... I just casually mentioned that my mom's health isn't good, and hoped they could be quiet. I didn't expect them to actually send a fruit basket to apologize."
Marilyn was relieved and said, "Well, that's good. He must not be a bad person if he can realize his mistake and correct it."
Stephanie thought to herself, huh, that guy must be a bad person!
Who knew what that man with eyes like a snake was thinking.
"Hmm... Mom, you didn't get a good rest last night, you should take a nap now, I'll stay with you."
Marilyn nodded and said, "I do feel a bit tired... Oh right, it's the end of the month, have you quit your job yet?"
"Don't worry mom, I've already resigned. I'll stay with you in the hospital tonight." There was a jerk living on this floor, and she really didn't feel at ease leaving her mother here alone at night. "You've resigned... What are your plans for the future?"
"Don't worry mom, Sebastian has arranged everything for me... I'll be reporting to school in a few days!"
Marilyn immediately became energized, she sat up in bed and asked, "Which school?"
"The same one as Gillian!" Stephanie said with a bright smile.
She loved to see her mother in good spirits and in a good mood.
"Center Stage Academy?"
"Yes!"
"How can you go to Center Stage... If you marry Seb in the future, how can you be an actress? The nobles look down upon that, they look down upon actors!"
"Mom, you're overthinking. This school was chosen by Sebastian himself, not something I actively asked for."
"Seb doesn't mind this?"
"Mom, if you don't believe me you can call him yourself! See if I'm lying!" Stephanie said with a pout, looking very cute.
Marilyn couldn't help but laugh, "Don't be angry! Alright, I believe you!"
"Mom, think about it, those wealthy families usually prefer to marry into families of equal status! Seb and aren't the perfect match in terms of status in the first place. If he cared about those things, how could he have agreed to marry me?"
Stephanie had a point.
Marilyn nodded, "That's true... as long as you and Seb get along well, I won't worry about these things anymore."
"Mom, don't worry, he treats me really well. Even if someone says a few bad words about me, he'd go argue with them!"
Marilyn's eyes lit up, "Really? Does Seb treat you that well?"
Stephanie nodded, "Yes, he already considers me as one of his own. Don't worry, Mom!"
"Alright, if that's the case, I'll be at ease. I won't interfere with your affairs in the future."
"Yeah, get some sleep now!" Stephanie deliberately said these words to make her mom happy. She believed that if her mom was in a good mood, she would be able to sleep well, right? And indeed, Marilyn slept peacefully throughout the afternoon. She didn't even notice that Stephanie had almost gotten into a conflict outside the ward.
Later in the afternoon, after Marilyn had fallen asleep, Stephanie decided to take the irritating fruit basket and headed towards Aaron's ward. She didn't say anything, just placed the basket at the door, intending to leave.
However, as she was about to leave, the door suddenly swung open from the inside. Aaron, dressed in a sharp suit, rushed out and grabbed Stephanie's wrist, trying to pull her into the ward...
