After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
Connor gently wrapped his arms around her. Camila rested her head on his shoulder. Her eyes were tightly shut as she fought to suppress the pain in her heart.
It wasn’t long before Craig arrived. Drew also rushed to the hospital.
“Camila…” Drew’s voice was choked with tears as he stared intently at Camila. Tears streamed down his cheeks.
He sobbed, “Why didn’t you tell me Aunt Claire was in the hospital? If Craig hadn’t called me, I’d still be in the dark…”
Camila didn’t say a word, just silently stared at him.
Drew pulled out a debit card from his pocket and placed it in Camila’s hand, saying, “I got an advance on six months’ salary from my boss. It’s not much, but take it for now. I’ll figure something else out.”
A hint of comfort tinged Camila’s eyes atthe determination on Drew’s face.
“You don’t need to worry about the money,” Connor said, holding Camila’s hand tightly.
Camila looked up at him, nodding her head in gratitude.
“With you here, Aunt Claire will definitely be okay,” Drew declared confidently.
Time ticked by, second after second.
Several hours later, the door to the hospital room opened.
Dr. Tom, looking exhausted but relieved, came out from the ICU and told Connor and Camila, “She’s made it through the critical period. Now, she needs further observation and treatment.” Upon hearing this, Connor and Camila were overwhelmed with emotion, and their eyes were brimming with tears of joy.
Everyone felt a tremendous sense of relief. Craig clutched his father’s shoulder tightly, and Cole wept quietly.
Camila stood up and gave Dr. Tom a deep bow. Her voice trembled with gratitude. “Thank you, Dr. Tom! Thank you!”
Dr. Tom spoke seriously, “Let’s arrange a transfer to Passos Hospital. They have more advanced equipment and comprehensive facilities, and I can treat your mother more effectively there.” “Absolutely!” Camila agreed eagerly.
They immediately proceeded with the transfer.
Once at Passos Hospital, Connor arranged a VIP room for Camila’s mother.
“This room…” Cole looked worriedly at the luxurious VIP room. Their funds were insufficient.

Alan arrived at the hospital with food containers and said to Connor, “Mr. Connor, I’ve prepared the hotel rooms.” Connor told Cole, “Cole, I’ve booked rooms at the nearby hotel. You need to get some rest. We’ll keep watch here.”
Cole shook his head. His voice was weary but his eyes were resolute. “I’m not tired.”
“Cole, you haven’t slept in a while. Don’t collapse after mom gets better,” Camila said with a smile.
“Yeah, dad, you need to be in good shape to take care of Cami’s mom. here, and her mom is past

“Dad…” Craig frowned as he called out.
Cole nodded, agreeing to rest for a while.

“Camila, keep the money. I know it’s not much,” Drew insisted.
“It’s not about how much. It’s your thought that counts, and I’ll always remember that,” Camila said, holding his hand.
Drew was the only one in the Mallory family who truly cared about her mother.
