Romeo's words brought tears to the eyes of Alger and Celeste once again.
“Romeo.” Alger's voice choked before he could finish his sentence, hot with emotion.
Celeste was also crying behind her hands, “Our daughter's fate is still uncertain."
"That's why you need to stay strong,’ Romeo said. "You don't know how long the surgery will last, or
what will be required of you afterwards. If you collapse now, who will take care of your daughter?"
Alger found the logic in Romeo's words. Fighting back his grief, he said to his tearful wife, "Let's get
something to eat."
"I'll eat too."
Alger had previously worked with Romeo and knew him to be a man of his word. However, this was the
first time he had seen Romeo's compassionate side.
Serena, having finished rinsing her mouth, spotted the breakfast that Romeo had bought and her eyes
lit up.
Finally, she had the chance to eat a breakfast that Romeo had personally picked out.
At that moment, Romeo received a call and strode away, "Yes, go ahead."
Serena watched his slender, gentlemanly figure retreat and couldn't help but feel that he far surpassed
Martin!
Whether in height, looks, demeanor, wealth, or power, Romeo was leagues better than Martin.
If it wasn't for Martha filtering out Martin from the list of wealthy bachelors, Serena wouldn't have settled
for him. She certainly didn't want to compromise herself!
Thinking of the breakfast that Romeo had bought, which probably included a portion for Arabella,
Serena rushed to finish her meal. Her stomach was close to bursting!
As Romeo finished his call, Serena said, "The breakfast was delicious. Thank you for thinking of
everyone and bringing us all these tasty treats."
She paused and then exclaimed, “Oh no, I forgot to save some for Bella"
The elevator doors opened and Carl arrived carrying a breakfast tray.
"Mr. Romeo, I got caught in rush hour traffic on my way from your place,” he explained. "Your chef
mentioned that Ms. Bella hasn't had his cooking for a while, so he made extra today. He hopes Ms.
Bella enjoys it."
Romeo remarked calmly, "Serena said the breakfast you bought was delicious."
"What?" Carl looked surprised, then turned to Serena. "Thank you for the compliment, Serena. Your
breakfasts are all from the Denny's, if you like it, I'll buy from there again next time."
Serena was shocked. She had nearly burst her stomach eating what she thought was breakfast
personally bought by Romeo!
Romeo had his personal chef prepare a special breakfast for Arabella, and even had Carl drive to pick
it up.
And all they got was from Denny's.
Two hours later, the operating room doors opened, and Arabella and several doctors emerged.
Everyone rushed up to them.
Louisa was the first to ask, "Bella, how's Crystal?"
"Did she make it?" Alger seemed worried.
"Why did only you doctors come out? Where's Crystal?” Celeste craned her neck to look inside but
didn't see her daughter. She burst into tears and slumped to the floor, "Crystal, my girl."
“Celeste, try to stay calm.” Louisa tried to help her up, but she was too heavy to lift.
