After Jayson nodded, the three of them followed Anne. As expected, Bob was happily smiling in her
arms.
After playing in the garden for a while, she held the boy in her arms and treated him to some desserts
that he was allowed to eat. Bob and Eddy were in a similar situation after all, so Anne knew how to take
care of him.
Meanwhile, when Bob's mother arrived, she didn't see him inside the ward. She immediately panicked
and looked for a nurse to help her. The nurse had no clue what happened either, and it threw the whole
hospital into disarray.
When Anne returned, carrying Bob in her arms, a grey-haired woman rushed to grab him in her arms.
She desperately shouted, "Bob, where have you been? I already told you that you can't go outside. You
should stay in the ward. Why did you go out? Are you going to scare me to death?"
As she stared at the woman's messy dress, Anne frowned. Jayson said that in order to cure Bob, his
parents had used up all their money. And now, they were still desperately scrambling to make money in
order to pay their huge medical bills.
Nothing in this world could ever compare to a mother and a father's love for their child.
"Mom…" Bob was being held tightly, so he couldn't help but burst into tears.
His mother was startled. She immediately let the boy go and eyed her son up and down. When she
saw that Bob was wearing new clothes, she glowered and asked, "Bob, where did you get these
clothes?"
Bob sobbed as he slowly looked at Anne. At this point, his mother finally realized that there was a
woman standing behind her. She looked at Anne from head to toe with vigilance in her eyes. "Excuse
me, Miss. Who are you?"
"My name is Anne." Lowering her head, Anne looked at Bob with concern and sighed. "I've asked the
doctor if he could go out, and he said that the child is in good health recently. He's allowed to play for a
short time. Staying in that ward all the time will negatively affect his health.
I'm sorry that I took Bob out without your permission," Anne said with guilt in her eyes as she stared at
Bob's mother.
She was very familiar with the feeling of having a missing child.
Bob's mother nodded at her. Bob tugged on his mother's hemline and said, "Mom, this aunt is a good
person. She took me outside to play and bought delicious food and new clothes for me. Look! She also
got me some new toys."
Bob's mother touched his head lovingly, and then she raised her head to look at Anne, and said
awkwardly, "Thank you so much. I'm sorry for making you pay for all those things… Would you mind if I
pay you back in the future?"
Her head was lowered while she was speaking.
She noticed that the things that Anne bought for Bob were expensive. For Anne, it didn't cost that
much, but for her, it was not a small amount.
Shaking her head in refusal, Anne replied, "Bob is so cute. I bought him all these things voluntarily, so
you don't need to pay me back."
Bob's mother looked at her and heaved a deep sigh. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she immediately
wiped them away.
She lowered her head, holding Bob in her arms. Anne carried the things she bought while following
them.
"Anne, I haven't seen you here before. Why did you come here to take care of Bob?" Bob's mother
poured Anne a glass of water and looked at her with curiosity.
Anne's expression stiffened and she slowly lowered her gaze.
In the distance, Sam and Kevin were observing them.
"My child suffers the same fate as Bob." After a long time, Anne sighed and stared at Bob's mother.
Bob's mother looked at Anne in disbelief. The doctor said that there were very few children with blood
disease, and this young woman in front of her just said that her child had the same condition as Bob.
"What's your child's name?" As she looked at Anne, Bob's mother bit her lower lip and started sobbing.
Right now, she was wondering if she and Anne had been through a similar situation. Perhaps that was
why they could understand each other so well.
Every mother would suffer if their child contracted this kind of disease. With tearful eyes, Anne took a
deep breath and suppressed her tears that were about to roll down. "His name is Eddy."
"Eddy!" Bob's mother lowered her head and murmured, "It's a good name.?
Anne nodded and didn't say a word. 'Eddy is a really good name. It symbolizes intelligence and hope,
but sadly, something tragic happened to him, ' she thought to herself.
Taking a deep breath, Bob's mother pinched Bob's little face and forced a smile. She turned around
and said to Anne, "We're both mothers, and both of our children are sick. We are sadder than
everybody else! Although we know that their disease is difficult to cure, perhaps in the end they will…
As long as my child still breathes, I won't give up. I'll even risk my life to save him!"
Bob's mother firmly declared, "My child is my life!"
Anne's heart was touched. She stared at Bob's mother and felt an ache in her heart. This woman in
front of her was nearly fifty years old, and her hair had been greyed all over. Her face was riddled with
wrinkles, making her look ten years older than she actually was.
This was because she had been worrying, suffering, and enduring all the unbearable things
imaginable.
For Bob's mother, Bob was her life. And for Anne, Eddy was her life!
They were both mothers, and they'd be willing to do anything for their children!
