Chapter 153
Silvia’s heart raced as she quickly turned off the water and hurried out of the bathroorn..
“What happened?!”
Neil appeared solemn as he said, “I’m not sure yet, but let’s head to the hospital first.”
When they reached the hospital, Melanie, Jake, and Liam were already there.
Neil approached them with a frown and asked, “How is Grandma?”
Jake’s face was gloomy as he replied, “The doctor is still conducting tests. We need to wait for the results to know more.”
“How did Grandma suddenly faint?”
Melanie and Jake remained silent, so Liam stepped in and explained, “While I was having dinner with Grandma, someone unexpectedly delivered a package to Harmony Yard. When she heard that the package was addressed to her, she asked a servant to open it, only to find… a dead baby inside.”
Neil and Silvia were shocked. Who would send such a horrifying thing to Abalene?
“Have you identified the person who sent the package?”
Liam shook his head. “After we brought Grandma to the hospital, I told the servants to ch*ck the surveillance. However, the culprit disappeared into an area without surveillance once they left Harmony Yard, and we couldn’t locate them.”
Neil’s expression turned cold, and he immediately gave someone a call. “Find out who delivered a package to Harmony Yard today! Track them down and leave no stone unturned!”
Everyone remained silent and waited for Abalene to wake up.
Soon, the doctor came out.
“Madam Remus fainted from shock, but apart from that, she’s not in any critical condition. She’ll wake up shortly.”
Jake forced a smile. “Thank you.”
“If you need anything, you can always reach out to me in my office.”
After the doctor left, Melanie turned to Neil and said, “You have work tomorrow morning, so you should go home for now. I’ll text you when your grandmother wakes up.”
Then, she turned to Liam. “You should go home as well.”
Neil’s expression remained cold as he replied, “No, I’ll stay here until Grandma wakes up.‘
Liar refused to go home too.
Melanie did not say anything else, and they sat in the hospital room in silence.

All of a sudden, Silvia got up. “I need to use the restroom.”

Once she left the ward, she headed to the stairwell and sent a message.
Her expression was unreadable in the dim light.
The door to the stairwell suddenly creaked as someone opened it. Silvia looked over vigilantly and coldly asked, “Who’s there?”
The person was surprised to see her after he switched on the flashlight on his phone.
“Silvia, why are you here?”
It was Liam. He had a cigarette in his mouth, and his eyes were slightly narrowed. He had a rebellious look, which was completely different from his regular appearance.
He took the cigarette out of his mouth and reverted to his gentle self.
That feeling of danger swept over Silvia once more, and there was a cold glint in her eyes.
She quickly came up with a random excuse. “I just wanted to be alone for a while. I’m heading back
now.”
Liam did not stop her and moved to the side for her to leave.
As she walked past him, he chuckled and said, “You should wait for a while more before you go back.”
She paused briefly but chose to leave without asking what he meant.
She could feel his eyes on her as she walked away. It only disappeared after she entered the hospital ward.
When she overheard Melanie trying to persuade Neil to divorce her, she finally understood what Liam
said.
Upon Silvia’s return, Melanie spoke with hostility and showed no guilt. “Now that you’re here, I’ll be straightforward. When do you plan on divorcing Neil?”
