As soon as Ignatius Leclair woke up, the Howard Family's matriarch called Delphine and specially had someone deliver tonics for her to bring to the hospital.
Over the past two days, Nicholas and Benjamin had been staying at the Howard Family residence, with the matriarch personally caring for the two children while entrusting Ignatius entirely to Delphine.
By the time Delphine arrived at the hospital, it was already evening.
The man sat on the hospital bed, his face pale and wan, his eyes lowered as he reviewed documents. Beside him, Maximilian hovered nervously, as if he wanted to snatch the pen out of Ignatius's hand. When Maximilian saw Delphine enter, his face lit up with joy, and he said, "Mr. Leclair, Miss Delphine is here. These documents aren't urgent—we can go over them in a couple of days."
