“Grandma, I called him,” Elizabeth said.
Outside, a crowd was peeking in, curious about what was happening

When Alexander shut the door, the onlookers sighed. What was so important
“Grandma, Mom, I’ll take you home, Alexander said, trying to help ly up.
Lily pushed him away, crossed her arms, and huffed, “I’m not going back!”
“This is a hospital, and Elizabeth is working. Grandma, please,” Alexander said quietly.
Lily gave him a pitiful look. “If you could handle your own issues, would I need to be here?”
“Exactly” Elara agreed, sounding annoyed.
Alexander sighed. “Mom, Grandma’s being unreasonable, and you’re joining in?”
“We re hand

Elizabeth looked at them, feeling a headache coming on
Alexander turned to her.
“Since they’re both here, let’s just lay it all out,” Elizabeth suggested.

Alexander glanced at Lily, feeling helpless.

People in the hallway stared, their curiosity obvious.
The four of them headed to the café, but rumors spread in the hospit

“Looks like Elizabeth and Alexander’s marriage is over!”
I heard they went to the cafe to talk. I wonder what they’re discussing. I’m dying to know!”
“Better not be too curious.”
In the ward, Esme frowned as she overheard nurses gossiping. Lily and Elara came to find Elizabeth?
In
the cafe’s private
private room, Elizabeth pulled out a chair for Lily, and they all sat down.
Alexander sat across from Elizabeth, leaning back, legs crossed, arms folded, looking tense.
Lily held Elizabeth’s hand. “Elizabeth, I don’t want you and Alexander to divorce!”
Elizabeth and Alexander exchanged a look. She turned to Lily and said, “Grandma, my marriage with Alexander is over.”
“You still love him!” Lily insisted.
