Chapter 132 Final Moments Of Elisa When Elisa said that, her gaze gradually lowered to rest on Lysander's belly.
"Grandma Elisa, there's no such thing. Josiah and I... are doing just fine." "Don't lie toanymore. I know everything," Elisa said. "You all think I'm old and senile, no longer able to recognize anyone, huh?" "Not at all, Grandma Elisa. Don't overthink things." "You don't have to hide it fromanymore. The child has already toldeverything." "The child?" "The child you have with Josiah. She's a beautiful girl. She cto seethis morning, dressed in a floral dress, with her hair in pigtails!" Lysander choked up, momentarily at a loss for words.
Elisa continued, "She was such a darling, gently leaning againstand callingGreat-grandma. Oh, she was so pretty, bubbly, and lively. She even sang to me, clapping her hands while at it. What song was that again? It seemed to be a Stounian song. I'm old, and my hearing is not what it used to be, so I couldn't quite catch it. All I remember is something along the lines of birch." Josiah was somewhat puzzled. "Birch?" "Yes, birch." Josiah looked at Lysander. "What song is that?" A stab of pain assailed Lysander, a dull ache spreading all over her.
It's not birch, but bird. It's the prenatal song I listened to in the first few days I found myself pregnant. Hush, little baby, don't say a word. Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird...

Elisa immediately said, "Yes, this was the song. She sang it so beautifully.
At that point in the conversation, Josiah and Susan shared a glance, both having a pretty good idea of what was going on.
Susan's tears streamed down her face, yet she dared not let a single sob escape. She strove to keep her emotions in check, trembling even as she bit on her knuckles.
Josiah was no better, his eyes red-rimmed. He turned his face away.
Elisa continued, "Lysander, the child wantedto tell you she's not mad at you. She only misses you greatly and regrets that she can't be your child anymore. The angel told her to hurry back to heaven, for she has to choose a new mother." Lysander said nothing.
It felt as if there was a lump in her throat, leaving her unable to utter a word.
Chapter 132 Final Moments Of Elisa "Lysander, it's almost tforto go to heaven too. But I can't go back on a promise made to the child. I needed to see you one last tand tell you all this in person before I could leave in peace." Instantly, Lysander broke down, tears streaming down her face. “Grandma Elisa, please don't say something so dispiriting. I'm a doctor. As long as I'm here, you'll be fine." "Silly girl, you're an obstetrician. You can't cure my illness. I've lived for over eighty years, and it's enough. Susan, Josiah, cover here." For sreason, Elisa could seemingly recognize them again.
Susan and Lysander squatted down together, huddling close. Considering his tall stature and long legs, Josiah crouched behind them..
"Mom, I'm here." "Grandma." "Good. It's good that you're both here. The child also had a message forto pass on to you," said Elisa. Go ahead, Mom. Josiah and I are all cars," Susan said urgently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElisa had just spoken at length earlier and was somewhat drained then. She breathed heavily, a thick layer of mist forming on her oxygen mask, As Susan stroked her chest, she coaxed, "Mom, don't rush. Take your time." Elisa closed her eyes, her chest heaving violently.
Anxiety gripped Lysander. “Grandma Elisa, don't speak for now first. Take a moment to rest.” "No. I... I can't hold on much longer. I need to finish speaking quickly...
Lysander swiftly stood up, instructing, "Madam Susan, Josiah, stay here and listen to Grandman Elisa go and Took for the doctor. Grandma Elisa's blood pressure has already dropped to a critical level, and she requires emergency treatment at once." Susan was already at her wit's end. "Okay, okay. Go quickly."
Lysander forcefully swung the hospital room door open and rushed out, only to collide head-on with someone.
"Ouch!" Upon hearing that, Josiah looked over, only to lock eyes with the person outside.
Visibly pregnant, Lysanne pointed at Josiah and began shrieking, "How dare you, Josiah! $X you (this is why you've been ignoring my calls all morning! Sure enough, you went to meet this b*tch behind my back!” X
