Chapter 137~ Fugitive

“Mommy!” Thalia rushed into the ward after Katherine put her down. She gently wrapped an arm around Claire in an attempt to hug her before saying, “I missed you, Mommy. I wish I can hug you tight but Grandma said it might hurt my little baby brother or sister.”

Claire’s eyes watered with tears when she saw her daughter. They had talked over a video call but it was different to see her in person. She reached over and carried Thalia, placing her on the bed next to her before holding her tight.

“Mommy missed you too, Thalia… don’t worry, you’re not heavy for mommy and your little baby brother or sister wants a hug from big sis too,” Claire remarked.

“Grandma told me you and Daddy need to stay in the hospital to take care of the baby,” Thalia said while looking up at Claire.

“Yes, we do… however, Daddy will come and spend time with you just like before,” Claire promised. As much as they wanted to focus on keeping her pregnancy safe, they didn’t want Thalia to feel neglected and alone.
