Grimacing from the sharp pain in his shoulder, Kyson said, “I’m fine.
”
Once he had regained hisposure, he gestured toward the woman standing timidly behind him.
“This is the mother from the general ward downstairs.
I helped her out with a small matter yesterday, and she came by today to thank me with some fruit.
”
He nced at Lucinda and murmured to her, “You’re overreacting.
”
The woman, clutching her baby, flinched at the unexpected confrontation.
“I… Well… Should I not havee here?”
Lucinda’s gaze was piercing as she scrutinized the visitor, her expression fraught with suspicion.
“I’m sorry to disturb you.
” The woman, sensing the tension, cautiously set the fruit on the floor and hurried out, casting a bewildered look back at Lucinda before exiting.
After the door closed, Lucinda confronted Kyson with a stern face.
“Why did you let strangers in?”
Kyson looked at her with a mix of concern and confusion.
“Lucinda, you might be too on edge.
”
He understood her heightened alertness; since the kidnapping incident and subsequent threats to Colby, it was natural for her to be anxious.
He pondered for a moment before suggesting, “You’ve been through a lottely.
Why don’t you take some time to rest? I’ll look after Colby.
You can trust me.
”
Lucinda lowered her head, acknowledging her erratic behavior.
The trauma of the kidnapping and the constant threat to her child had left her perpetually tense, a state that was now taking its toll.
After a moment of reflection, she made up her mind.
“I’ll need to rely on you to watch over Colby for now.
Thank you.
”
Kyson shook his head, his tone reassuring.
“As Colby’s godfather, it’s the least I can do.
”
When Nathan arrived at the hospitalter, Lucinda was already packing up some of her belongings in the ward.
As Lucinda spotted the familiar tall figure at the door, she ran toward Nathan and embraced him tightly.
Her voice was filled with distress as she whispered, “Darling, I want to go home.
”
Surprise etched itself across Nathan’s face.
He had been away for less than twelve hours—what could have transpired in such a short time?
ncing up, he noticed the guards at the door avoiding his gaze, heads bowed.
With her head buried in his chest, Lucinda confessed softly, “I keep having this feeling… Ever since that day, whenever I close my eyes, I fear someone will harm my baby… I nearly hurt a stranger today because of a slight trigger.
”
Her voice trembled with anxiety.
“Clearly, you need a more peaceful environment,” Nathan murmured thoughtfully.
After a pause, he gently suggested, “How about I arrange for the doctor to check Colby right away, and we can all go home today?”
Despite the hospital’s security, it couldn’tpare to the safety of their home at N&L Fairy Land.
Lucinda nodded in agreement.
By dusk, they had arrived at the Payne family estate with Colby.
Topensate for the recent events at the hospital, the hospital director had arranged for top-notch nurses and pediatricians to continue their care at N&L Fairy Land.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
