Chapter 49
Penn’s POV
I was having a morning meeting in the company when Joyce called me.
Seeing the caller ID, I frowned, asked the assistant to preside over the meeting, I stood up and went out.
“Mr. Carter, Lundy left alone…”
Hearing this, my face suddenly darkened. “What happened?”
She faltered, “he got in the Carter family’s car. I think he is going to see Miss Miller. He just asked me why Aviva and Cyrus didn’t come. I said that Miss Miller was sick, so he turned around and got in the car. He always likes Aviva and Cyrus…”
When I heard that the little guy got in the driver’s car, I wasn’t so worried. When I heard Joyce say that Aimee was sick, I frowned and asked, “what’s wrong with Miss Miller?”
Joyce replied, “she seems to have a fever. Aviva and Cyrus are taking care of her at home.”
I replied in a low voice, “I see. Help me ask for a leave for Lundy.”
After Joyce agreed, I hung up the phone with a long face and called Bill over. “I’m going to Aimee’s house. Call Ian for me.”
Ian arrived soon. When he arrived, I took my men to Aimee’s house.
I know that with the attitude of Aimee now, if I go there alone, Aimee will definitely not let me in.
Therefore, it was the best choice to take a doctor.
Arrived at Aimee’s house.
“Where is Lundy?” seeing the two kids opening the door, I couldn’t help but feel headache.
These two little guys have inexplicable prejudice against me, but they are very deep. I’m afraid it’s difficult for them to let me in today.
The two kids blocked the door from the left and one from the right. They looked at me seriously and asked, “what are you doing here?”
I frowned helplessly. “I heard that your mommy is sick, so I brought the doctor here.”
After saying that, I turned to ask Ian behind to walk in front of the two kids and introduced, “this is the family doctor of the Carter family, Ian.”
Aviva and Cyrus frowned. “How do you know mommy is sick?”
I said in a low voice, “Joyce called me and told me that Lundy came to see your mommy.”
Noticing that the kids had changed their attitudet. “You’re the only one who takes care of your mommy. I’m sure she hasn’t been to the hospital yet. I bring the doctor to come and see what’s going on. She’ll recover soon. He is a good doctor.”
The two kids finally made way for him.
I breathed a sigh of relief and followed the two kids upstairs with Ian.
Seeing the woman on the bed, I frowned.
I can tell at a glance that this woman is seriously ill.
“Mr. Carter.” Aimee greeted me distantly and looked away immediately.
Noticing that the little woman was still distancing herself from me, I said coldly, “please help her.”
Ian agreed and went to treat Aimee.
“This is our family doctor. I specially brought him here to check on you.” I explained in a low voice.
After the examination, Ian turned around and reported to me.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“Miss Miller has a fever because she has been too tired these days, causing her immunity to decline. In addition, she has caught a cold, so she has such a fever. I need to go back and prepare for it. I need to give Miss Miller an intravenous drip.”
I nodded noncommittally. Then I looked at the little woman on the bed with deep eyes, and there was some regret in my eyes.
The reason why she caught a cold was that she got wet in the rain last night.
I’m partly responsible for it. It’s raining heavily. I should have insisted on sending her to the parking lot.
After a while, Ian came in with an intravenous drip.
After putting Aimee on a drip, Ian turned around and said to me, “Miss Miller has a lot to take on. She may need someone to take care of her tonight and change the infusion.”
Upon hearing this, Aimee said hastily, “Fiona, thank you for taking care of me tonight.”
I said in a tough tone, “I’ll stay.”
Aimee frowned slightly and said, “no, thanks. Fiona, please help me change it. Mr. Carter is very busy. Don’t waste time here.”
The two kids echoed, “we will also help Mommy. We appreciate your kindness.”
My eyes swept across Lundy’s face and fell on Aimee. I said in a low voice, “since you are so sick, Lundy certainly doesn’t want to go back with me. I’m worried about him, so I’ll stay tonight no matter what. As for Fiona, please take the children to rest.”
Lundy pursed lips and said in a sweet voice, ” I won’t leave.”
Then he lay on her side on the bed and held Aimee’s arm tightly like a pendant.
After a long while, Aimee could only answer in silence, which meant that she acquiesced in my staying.
I asked Ian about some dos and don’ts. then I went downstairs to see him off. After that, I turned back and sat silently on the sofa in Aimee’s room.
The kids leaned close to the bed and talked to Aimee.
After a while, Aimee fell asleep.
I’ll ask Fiona to take the kids to rest and stay to take care of them.
Because I have to pay attention to the intravenous drip all the time, I almost didn’t sleep all night.
On the early morning of the second day, I briefly told her the dos and don’ts. then I got up and took Lundy away.
Aimee’s POV
After my fever recovered, the two kids were still worried about me, and I rested at home for another two days.
It took me a long time to completely recover. Early in the morning, I sent the two kids to the kindergarten and was about to drive to the Research Institute. As soon as I got in the car, my phone suddenly rang.
I took a look at the caller ID, and it was the teacher, Baldwin.
I thought it was about the project, so I answered it in a hurry, “teacher, what’s up?”
At the other end of the phone, the teacher’s voice sounded a little serious. “Did you offend someone?”
“What do you mean?”
“It seems that someone is investigating you abroad these two days,” the teacher replied in a deep voice. “So, I wonder if you have offended someone at home. The person wants to take advantage of your foreign affairs to make a difference.”
Hearing this, my heart sank slightly. “Can you find out who it is?”
