Stella's POV

On my last day at the hospital , Robert informed me that Daisy is safe and now in his house with my grandmother ,

I sighed in relief , and i'm beginning to feel better physically  , i just can't wrap the thoughts in my head that Gabriel really did try to kill me and Daisy .

I thought he changed . Robert excused himself to deal with the hospital administration as i was left alone in the room to eat .

A slight knock on the door was heard , and i spotted a certain wavy black hair from the door , she walked in with a fruit basket as she sets in down on the coffee table across me and giving me a very broken smile , her eyes looked very weary and tired .. like she never had any good night sleep in ages .

"Anne?" I asked in shock

Why is Gabriel's mother here? Marc's mother ...oh Marc , how did i let this happen too long .

"Oh Stella , i'm very sorry to what he did to you , i know there's never a way to make it up" she said so softly as he put her hand to her lips as she holds back her sobs .. her eyes are so kind as always ,

I couldn't answer , i feel like there's nothing to say .. one of her son is dead , and the other goes mad and sent to prison for life , what was i supposed to say? And both was linked to me . I feel like i'm feeling worse as the guilt sinks in , i feel for this woman in front of me  , she must be super strong to even come here and see me .

She comes to the side of my bed and sat down holding my hand in hers .

"I know this is too much to ask and it makes no excuse for what my son did to you , but , he is my son .. and if you are to stand at where i am standing .. you would have done the same , but , please forgive him , it can reduce his sentence , i need to see my son have a chance at life again , all you have to do is sign here .." she said to me  her eyes are begging me to say yes .

But , i'm in more shock that she asked me this .. how can she?? He scarred me for life and what about Daisy? We both probably need to see a therapist after all of this  .

"No" i muttered

"What?" She lets go of my hand and stand back

"I said no Anne , i know he is your son  .. but , he tried to kill me , and my daughter !! His daughter! If he comes out of jail .. what would happen to us?" I said to her so sternly

"Don't you forget , that you are the one who led him back ,.. my son is just living normally after he lets you go , until you led him back" she said to me

" he found me Anne , i only gave him a chance to redeem himself and be close to his daughter , well , was i wrong " i said to her

After i told her that i wont signed the document for Gabriel's early release

She stood up from where she was sitting , brushed her hair out of the way and wiped her tears ,

"You'll change your mind , you'll see , and i would like to meet my grandaughter soon, would you at least let me do that? She is from his blood too" she said before she walks out of my room

"i'll think about it" i told her and she nodded and wish me well and goes out the door passing with Robert who just came in , Robert gave me a look like 'who's this?' i just smiled at him

"so who's that?" he asked me once Anne is out of the room

"Gabriel's mum" i said as i continue to eat the very tasteless porridge in front of me , honestly hospital food are the worst .

"what'd she want?" he continues to question me

"for me to forgive his son and sign for his early release" i sighed

"you didn't , well you have to say no , say no " he said to me in disbelief

"don't tell me what to do Robert .. but , if that's really what you worry about , of course i said no" i told him off , he seemed relieved that i said no 

"the last time i didn't do nothing to stop you , you almost died , i can't let that happen again" he said to me staring to my eyes , i nodded and complied

"there are some people who wants to see you" Robert smiled and opens the door revealing my assistant Kacey and Jess

i stood up from the hospital bed and was told to change to my regular clothes with Kacey brought for me .. i thanked her , as she reported to me the sales that's going on whilst i was gone and how she had taken care of it , thank God for my assistant .

Jessica came rushing towards me , she hugged me the hardest , that it hurts the freshly stitched gash on my chest and i flinched, which she quickly apologized for .

"promise me , you won't do anything stupid that would endanger yourself or worse Daisy" Jess told me 

"of course , i missed you , you should comeover later" i asked her 

"can't imagine you stopped breathing .. even my mom was worried that you wouldn't wake up" she said to me worriedly

"how do you feel though? , " she asked again

"well , i feel better ..but , you know it hurts if i stood up straight , because it pulls on my chest , and it hurts most if i coughed" i told her 

the nurses took care of most of my items , as Robert told me that's it's time to go , Jess and kacey followed us out standing next to me to help me walk , i honestly don't know what to do without them .

i went in Rob's car sitting shotgun next to him as he drives , Jess and Kacey followed us home  as we still need to go over a few things 

then i Robert's phone from rings as it was on loudspeaker because he was driving

a familiar voice chimed in

"heard she said no to my mother's document"  

my blood runs cold , i froze .

Robert straight up hang up the call , and looking towards me worriedly .
