Without hesitation, Mia led Sage and Ginger into the car, racing off toward the hospital.
Given Heath's recent update on Laura's deteriorating health and the ongoing efforts to revive her, Mia couldn't shake her profound concern about what might unfold.
It was crucial for her to quickly bring the children to Laura's side.
The car journey passed in silence, with Sage and Ginger both sensing Mia's worry.

I've prepared a bouquet of flowers for her. She's going to make it through." Meanwhile, Sage spoke up with determination, "Why don't we invite Uncle Nicholas to visit Great-Grandma Laura? I'm sure he'll know what to do." Upon hearing her children's heartfelt words, Mia gently enveloped them in her arms, her voice thick with emotion as she responded, "Great-Grandma Laura would be deeply touched to hear your kindness." Soon, the car arrived at the entrance of the Barrett family's private hospital. With Mia leading the way, Sage and Ginger followed her into the exclusive elevator.
Upon exiting the elevator, Mia spotted Timothy standing alone outside the operating room, his solitary figure adding a somber aura to the scene.
Having been married to Timothy for five years, she understood all too well the profound importance of Laura in his life.
If Laura hadn't insisted on Timothy marrying Mia years ago, Mia knew her social status wouldn't have been sufficient to secure a place among the elite of society.
This underscored the immense significance of Laura's place in Timothy's heart.
Thus, Mia couldn't fathom the depth of Timothy's grief if he were to lose Laura.
Approaching him silently from behind, Mia found herself momentarily at a loss for words.
The steady pulsing of the red light outside the operating room served as a stark reminder of the life-and-death battle unfolding within.
At that moment, Ginger stepped forward, reaching out to grasp Timothy's hand. Gazing up at him, she reassured him. "Great- Grandma Laura will be okay." Timothy's stern demeanor softened considerably as he locked eyes with Ginger.
Turning to face Mia, he couldn't help but notice Sage standing quietly behind her.

With a strained tone, he recounted, "I informed Grandma this morning about your visit. She was ecstatic, perhaps overly so. The excitement led to a sudden drop in her blood pressure, causing her to faint." Mia couldn't help but feel a mixture of amusement and bewilderment at the unexpected turn of events. She hadn't anticipated that Laura's excitement would result in such a reaction. As the doors to the operating room swung open at last, Mia and Timothy anxiously held their breath, their hearts racing with uncertainty.
They dreaded the news the doctor might deliver, yet clung desperately to hope for a favorable outcome.
As the doctor removed his mask, he declared, Mrs. Barrett Senior has been successfully stabilized. Her blood pressure has steadied, but we must be cautious of her emotional state going forward." S Upon hearing this, Mia felt a burden lift from her shoulders, reassured that Laura was now out of danger.
Despite this, Laura's condition remained unstable, necessitating ongoing care in the intensive care unit.
Accompanied by Sage and Ginger, Mia approached the ICU waiting area. Their eyes settled on Laura in her hospital bed, her hair a striking white hue.
With a weight in her chest, Mia murmured, "Grandma Laura, I've brought Sage and Ginger to see you. I'm sorry for not being entirely truthful with you before."
