Ivy shook her head with a chuckle, "I felt so much better when I woke up. The only reason I'm still in the hospital is that the doc insisted on some R&R. Honestly, I reckon I'd heal up just as well at home, but they won’t discharge me, so here I am. I'm in tip-top shape now. You guys don't need to worry one bit."
Margot finally nodded, satisfied. "You have no idea how worried I was when you had that accident. How could something like that happen when two lifeguards were on duty? It was not until Thalia sensed something off that we realized there was a whole chain of mishaps. I wanted to check on you sooner, but I thought you might still be recovering, so I held off. Don't be sad I didn’t come by till today, okay?"
She patted Ivy's hand in a comforting gesture.
Thalia was not quite as bubbly. She was not close to Ivy; after all, she was just a runner on the set.
When Margot dragged her along, she did not really want to agree. She did not know Ivy well and had not interacted with her. But considering she owed Mr. Balfour thanks for getting out of a tight spot, she decided to make the visit.
"I'm not sad at all. I've been doing nothing but eating and sleeping these past few days. I'm practically turning into a pig. I haven't had the time to think about anything else. I've been feeling drowsy often, maybe from losing some vitality last time. Anyway, how's the production doing? Has Colton started shooting again?"
Margot sighed at the mention of the film. "You don't know the half of it. The production has taken a huge hit. The cast and the director have been dragged through the mud online."
