Chapter: 628
Ariana’s heart skipped a beat. She rose hurriedly from the bed, her hands deftly maneuvering the wheelchair, as she searched the room for the precious bracelet pendant.
Unfortunately, it was nowhere to be found.
Asense of sadness and unease enveloped her as she glanced around, her eyes desperately seeking any clue. The bracelet held a special place in her heart. Its allure lay not only in its exquisite design and craftsmanship, but also in the pendant that bore the intertwined initials of her and Theodore’s names.
And now, it was lost.
The bracelet was still there, but the pendant was lost.
Ariana’s anxiety grew so intense that her nose began to ache, tears welling up in her eyes without her conscious consent. Why had she lost only this pendant?
Did it signify something about her and Theodore?
Chaos consumed her thoughts, and tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably.
She wiped them away with the back of her hand, silently admonishing herself not to cry. But her sadness held sway over her, refusing to be subdued. She despised her own distraction, her mind constantly occupied by thoughts of Theodore.
“Ariana? What’s wrong?”
Startled, Ariana tumed to see Sarah rushing towards her. The door swung open, revealing Ariana in tears, alone in the living room. Concern etched upon her face, Sarah swiftly retrieved a tissue to wipe away Ariana’s tears, and inquired, “What’s wrong? What has happened to make you cry all by yourself?”
Ariana lowered her head, trying to hold back her tears. “Nothing,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “It’s just... something got lost.”
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably once again, dampening her cheeks. In this room, there was no pendant to be found. She couldn’t fathom where she might have lost it.
Was it at the hospital? Perhaps in the hotel? Or could it have slipped away on the way back?
The more Ariana tried to recollect, the more her hope dwindled, leaving her feeling even more distraught.
Sarah, recognizing her anguish, gently patted her on the back and spoke softly.
“What is it? Let me help you find it.”
Ariana met Sarah’s eyes with a teary gaze and revealed, “The pendant on the bracelet... it was given to me by Theodore.”
Her embarrassment was palpable, as if she believed her tears were excessive for such a trivial matter. “I’m sorry,” she murmured, her voice quivering. “I can’t stop crying over something so small, but | don’t understand why.”
Sarah embraced her in a comforting hug. “It’s okay. Hormonal instability during pregnancy can easily cause emotional fluctuations,” she explained. “My friends have experienced the same when they were expecting. It’s quite common.”
