After Angeline rushed over and arrived at Grand Asia Hospital, she could hear Sera Severe's despondent wailing from the hallways.

Jack sat in the waiting room, sullenly smoking.

The madam accompanied Sera by her side. She held her hand, her own eyes red from all that sobbing.

"Sera, everything will be fine. You have to be strong." Madam consoled her over and over.

Angeline ran out of the elevator, and the madam rushed toward her as soon as she saw her. She grabbed her hand and said urgently, "Miss Severe, you came just in time. Hurry and help Sera with her signature."

Angeline glanced over to Sera who was lying on a mobile sickbed. How could someone who had so much pride cry like it was nobody's business?

Her hate for Sera was washed away by pity. She walked over to her and said, "Giving birth to a child is painful. You'll have to hang in there."

Sera looked at her with resentment. "Where's my mom? Why isn't she here?"

"Aunty Connors is in the hospital keeping my dad company." Angeline did not mention how George fainted because of how mad Sera made him. She

could not, for Sera could not take another mental blow at this point in time.

Sera's face showed disappointment. "Is she... Disappointed in me?"

"Ahhh!" Her intense contractions made her ignore all of that.

Angeline said, "I'll look for the doctor to give my signature."

A nurse guided Angeline over to the doctor's office, but the office was the last room after taking a left turn at the end of the hallway.

Its location was very isolated, and even Sera's wailing was softer from over there.

On their way there, the nurse briefly explained about Sera's current condition, "The mother is Rh-negative and has difficulty in giving birth, so it's very dangerous right now. Because she has a special status, we dare not perform the surgery on her. You would have to seek our person in charge. You also have to sign a copy of the hospital's statement of legal exemption and disclaimer."

Angeline was surprised. "Rh-negative?"

The entire Severe family was Rh-positive, which meant that Sera's unique blood type could only come from her mother."

Yet she knew nothing of Aunty Connor's blood type.

Angeline walked over to the office door, and she was furious after listening to the nurse. "Statement of legal exemption and disclaimer? What is the meaning of this? Are you saying that if anything happens to both mother and child, Grand Asia is not going to take the responsibility?"

The nurse replied, "You can say that."

"Who in the hell set this tyrannical rule?"

"The president."

"Hehe..." Angeline laughed coldly. "Is he still human?"

The nurse reminded her, saying, "Miss Severe, you should hurry and sign the papers. Any further delay might put the mother in more danger."

Angeline could not help but push the door open and walk in.

The nurse turned around and left.

The nurse returned to the entrance of the obstetrics operation theatre and immediately gave the order to push Sera into the room.

Angeline knew nothing about what was going on.

After she entered the office, she saw a familiar silhouette in a wheelchair. She was dumbstruck.

Jay turned the wheelchair around and faced Angeline, his eyes as cold as ice.

They faced each other, and the air was sullen and gloomy.

"Where's the contract?" Angeline asked.

Jay took out the statement from the stool beside him and handed it to her.

Angeline took a few steps forward and took the papers from him. She read them over, then read aloud, "If any mishap were to befall mother and child, Grand Asia shall not be liable for any loss incurred."

Angeline was stuck between a rock and a hard place since Sera was her younger sister from another mother. If she signed that agreement and if anything actually happened to both mother and child, Anne and Sera would hate her for an eternity.
