After freshening up, Sebastian made his way back to the kitchen, where he heard his mom's phone ringing. As he stepped into the dining room, he quickly rushed to his mom's room to retrieve the phone, before heading back to the kitchen."Mom, your phone is ringing," Sebastian said, handing the phone to Kate.Kate quickly took the phone and saw that it was Doctor Kingsley calling. She took a deep breath before answering the call."Hello, Doctor Kingsley," Kate greeted him nervously."Good morning, Kate," Doctor Kingsley replied. "I need you to come to my office in two hours. I can't say why over the phone."Kate's heart raced as she tried to imagine what could be so urgent that the doctor couldn't tell her over the phone. "Okay, thank you for letting me know," she managed to say, her voice shaking a little."See you in two hours," Doctor Kingsley said before ending the call.Kate hung up the phone and turned to Sebastian and Alexander, her face looking a little worried.

Alexander Sterling pulled into the parking lot of Samaritan Hospital and found a spot to park the car. Kate stepped out of the car and opened the door for Sebastian, who climbed out and straightened his shirt. Alexander switched off the car engine and joined them on the sidewalk.Kate led the way toward the hospital entrance, her footsteps were quick and purposeful. Alexander and Sebastian followed close behind, their eyes scanning the busy lobby as they made their way to Doctor Kingsley's office.The hospital was a hive of activity, with doctors, nurses, and patients bustling about in every direction.

Kate nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. She knew that she had to do everything in her power to ensure that her mother received the surgery she needed, but she has no money. Tears streamed down Kate's face as she sat in the doctor's office, clutching the papers in her hand. "I don't have any money," she said, her voice trembling with emotion.Doctor Kingsley looked at her in shock, realizing the gravity of their situation. Sebastian moved closer to his mother, patting her back as he wiped away his own tears.Alexander Sterling, who had been listening intently, observed Kate's distress, And shifted his gaze to Doctor Kingsley, a serious expression on his face."I will take care of the bills.

"Of course, Doctor. We'll send an ambulance right away," the operator responded."Thank you. Please make sure that the ambulance is equipped with all necessary medical equipment and personnel," Doctor Kingsley said, his voice firm and authoritative."We understand, Doctor.

The Orthopedics Doctor met them at the entrance and escorted them to the operating room, where the surgical team was already preparing for the procedure. Kate watched as they wheeled her Mom into the operating room, feeling a sense of relief knowing that she was in good hands. She knew that Mount Sinai Orthopedics Center had a reputation for excellence in joint replacement surgery, and she was confident that they would provide the best possible care for her Mother.Kate, Alexander, and Sebastian sat anxiously at the front of the operation room, waiting for news on Mrs. Morrone's surgery.Mrs. Morrone was given two types of anesthesia to prepare her for the surgery – general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia. The medical team carefully explained the process to her and made sure that she understood what was happening every step of the way. The anesthesiologist started by administering general anesthesia, which put Mrs. Morrone into a deep sleep. This type of anesthesia is used to ensure
Mrs. Morrone smiled weakly and replied, "I'm feeling better, dear. The surgery went well, and I'm on the road to recovery."Upon seeing Alexander, whom she had not met before, Mrs. Morrone motioned for Kate to approach her."Who is he?" she asked Kate, nodding her head towards Alexander. "Besides, he looks like Sebastian."Kate took a deep breath before speaking. "He is Sebastian's biological father," she said quietly, bracing herself for her mother's reaction.Mrs. Morrone looked at Alexander, then at Sebastian, taking in their striking resemblance. She sighed and shook her head before turning back to Alexander. "Why did you abandon my daughter while she was pregnant?" she asked, her voice laced with anger.Alexander hung his head in shame. "I'm so sorry," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "I never knew Kate was pregnant, and she never told me. After our breakup, I asked around about her, and I was told she stopped working at the bar."Mrs. Morrone's expression softened sligh
As they continued to talk, a nurse walked into the recovery room and interrupted their conversation. "I'm sorry to interrupt, but visiting hours are over now," she said kindly. "Mrs. Morrone needs to get some rest."Mrs. Morrone, Kate, and Sebastian all looked disappointed but understood the need for rest. "We'll be leaving soon," Kate assured the nurse. The nurse nodded and left the room, leaving the Morrone family and Alexander alone. "Well, I guess we should get going," Alexander said, standing up from his seat. Mrs. Morrone, Kate, and Sebastian all stood up as well, preparing to leave. "Thank you again, Alexander," Mrs. Morrone said, tears welling up in her eyes. "You've done so much for us, and we'll never forget it." Alexander smiled warmly. "It was my pleasure," he said. "Take care, and I'll check on you soon." As they prepared to leave the hospital, Mrs. Morrone turned to her daughter Kate and grandson Sebastian. "Where will you stay? It's already dark outside," she ask
As they made their way up the staircase, Mrs. Thompson watched them go, a fond smile on her face. She couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and joy seeing the family come together, even amid all the changes.Upstairs, Alexander led the way down the hallway, pointing out different rooms and explaining their purposes. Finally, they arrived at Sebastian's new room, a bright and cheerful space with a large window overlooking the backyard."Wow, it's amazing!" Sebastian exclaimed, running towards the bed and bouncing on it excitedly.Kate laughed at her son's enthusiasm and walked over to the window, taking in the view.

"Wow, this is a nice room," she said, impressed.Sebastian looked up at his father, a curious expression on his face. "Why did you furnish this room when there was no one to stay?" he asked.Alexander hesitated for a moment, his m
