Claudia Ross's tears flowed uncontrollably when she heard that Esmee Perry had fallen off the balcony while looking for her.
"You silly child, how could you be so foolish? Besides your leg, are you hurt anywhere else?"
"No... Mommy, come see Little Gracie, okay? Little Gracie misses you so much..."
Esmee Perry's cries melted Claudia Ross's heart.
At this moment, she couldn't say no anymore.
"Okay, Mommy will come see you right away. Wait for Mommy..."
Claudia Ross hung up the phone, wiping her tears as she walked outside.
She hadn't even changed out of her pajamas when she went to Ursula Solomon's room next door to bring Little An home.
She opened the door and saw Tabby Teller sitting on the ground, his head resting on the edge of the bed, holding Ursula Solomon's hand tightly.
Hearing the door open, Tabby Teller woke up and seeing Claudia Ross, he asked, "What time is it?"
His hoarse voice still carried exhaustion; he hadn't rested well last night.
