"Mom, why are you calling me?"

"You haven't brought Michael to visit me for a long time. Can't I ask you to come over?"

Hearing this, Chloe felt a little guilty.

Wendy's mental condition fluctuated, with periods of improvement and decline, and there hadn't been much progress even after she had been hospitalized for several years.

"I'll go there tomorrow."

Chloe's promise made Wendy hang up with pleasure.

Chloe pondered while sitting on the bed. Since she had supported Michael in pretending to be a loving couple today, it stood to reason that he should also be obligated to act with her.

But he had seldom visited Wendy under the pretext of busy work or a tight schedule.

Now that they were about to divorce, she guessed he would be more reluctant.

Chloe leaned back and fell heavily on the bed while deciding to think about it tomorrow. Chapter 14 Gifts

The next day, Chloe bought some of Wendy's favorite things and then went to the hospital.

In the end, she didn't call Michael.

She planned to take this opportunity to explain the matter to Wendy in case of any trouble later.

In the hospital's large lounge, a woman with hair tied in a bun and secured behind her head with a wooden hairpin was playing cards with other patients.

Chloe stood at the door with gifts, staring at Wendy's profile.

In her impression, Wendy had always been gentle and elegant, like a lady of a scholarly family.

From childhood to adulthood, Chloe had rarely seen Wendy lose her temper.

So, when Charles had an affair outside and moved the mistress and their daughter to the same residential complex, Wendy didn't even notice.

Believing that Lucy and her mother were really the family of Charles' deceased colleague, Wendy even took extra care of them.

It was not until something happened to Charles that Lucy and her mother came to expose the truth.

That time, Wendy, not yet overwhelmed by her

multibillion-dollar debt, suddenly went mad in front of Chloe and smashed up Charles' funeral.

Crying and laughing, Wendy pulled Chloe's hand hard, leaving a long, bloody mark on her wrist.

After that, Wendy changed completely.

She became bohemian, happy-go-lucky, and sometimes crazy.

Chloe had no choice but to send Wendy to a mental hospital.

They had gotten through such a difficult time after Charles' accident. Chloe couldn't figure out why Wendy would grow insane.

But after experiencing so much, she gradually realized that what could drive people crazy was never material things.

A nurse cast a glance at Chloe, went over, and patted Wendy on the shoulder.

She turned around and saw Chloe. Then, she immediately threw away the cards and walked toward Chloe.

Seeing that she was alone, Wendy asked, "Where's Michael? Why didn't he come with you?"

Chloe felt depressed. "He has a flight today and can't leave."

As the most capable captain at Paramount Airlines, Michael was indeed very busy. So, Wendy had no doubt about it. Chapter 14 Gifts

She pulled Chloe into the ward with a bright smile.

"I bought some clothes for Michael and some supplements for Admas. Send them over when you have time."

While speaking, Wendy placed various bags on the bed.

Without the help of the Shawn family, Wendy and Chloe would probably have been beaten to death by the debt collectors.

So, Wendy was grateful to them.

Looking at these gift boxes,. Chloe couldn't help but sigh, "Mom, just keep the money I gave you for yourself. You don't have to prepare these." Although Wendy would not leave the hospital, Chloe, fearing. that she would need money for some urgent matter, gave her a bank card. Combined with the value of all the gifts, the balance on that card was nearly used up.

Wendy waved her hands. "It doesn't matter. You and Michael have been married for so many years, yet I, as your mother, have never presented them anything. I'm afraid that they will not appreciate them.” She displayed the clothes for Michael one by one and asked Chloe, "How is it? Do you think Michael will like them?"

Before Chloe could say anything, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside.
