The caregiver that Kevin had hired only arrived in the afternoon. Rosario was used to taking care ofMadelyn and brought fresh clothes for her early in the morning. She wiped away her own tears uponseeing Madelyn suffer.
She thought, ‘I shouldn’t have let her stay at that kind of place. She’s never experienced any hardshipsgrowing up.’ Rosario deeply regretted it.

Tell me the truth.” Thedoctor responded, “Our findings show that you have congenital uterine anomalies which requiresurgical treatment as soon as possible, otherwise your chances of pregnancy will be extremely low. Ifyou conceive before the surgery, there’s a high chance of having a miscarriage. In more severe cases,it could even develop into uterine cancer, so as your doctor, my recommendation is for you to undergothe surgery as soon as possible. The medical facilities in Ventropolis are quite advanced, and theearlier you undergo the surgery, the lower the risks.”
“I understand,” Madelyn said. “But I’d like to discuss it with my family before making my decision. Can Igive you an answer after that?”
