Although Victor Morgan chose to hide things from her this time, Vera Warner wasn't overly angry. She understood his intentions—he was just worried she would overthink things.
Vera also found herself wondering, 'Am I being too overbearing? Is that why Victor doesn't even dare to tell me these things?'
But in the past, they had often fought because of Sylvia Schuyler, and Vera was already feeling exhausted by it. Perhaps she had even developed a certain immunity to the woman.
Vera played boisterously with her two children for an hour before getting ready to go to the hospital to check on Ian Lockwood's condition.

"Not yet. I'll probably have to go for the next couple of days. How is Ian Lockwood? Does someone still need to stay with him overnight?"
