Hearing her rude words, Terence was a little bit unhappy but felt sorry for when he looked into Thomas'
bright eyes.
"Thomas misses you."
Hester, on the other side of the phone, lost her momentum in an instant after hearing this. She frowned
unhappily and rubbed the position between her eyebrows. Inexplicably, she felt tired.
'He is not my son. Why should I live more tiredly than his parents?'
"Give him the phone!"
Terence obediently put the phone near Thomas' ear, and his cold face became gloomy. If it weren't for
Thomas, she wouldn't answer his phone at all.
This idea grew bigger and bigger in his mind, and finally filled his ears fiercely, turning into a strong
dissatisfaction and tightly surrounding him.
"Hello! Auntie April!"
With all his attention on the phone, Thomas didn't notice his father's sad expression. He just held the
phone and said happily.
His soft words almost melted Hester's heart. Lying on the table, she was feeling slightly drunk. It was
indeed a pleasure to hear such a voice in the early morning!
"Thomas, what's wrong?"
"Auntie April, stand by the window and look out!"
Thomas raised his head, his eyes wandering among the windows, and the familiar face that he was
looking forward to appeared.
Not knowing why, Hester walked to the window and pushed it open. She nodded and saw Thomas
waving his hands excitedly with a bright smile on his face.
Only at this time, he was no longer as calm as he used to be. He became more energetic and looked
like a child at last.
Seeing Hester's body, Thomas waved his arm excitedly, trying to attract her attention more easily.
"Auntie April!"
Hester also waved her arm with a faint smile at the corners of her mouth.
"Since you are already here, come on in!"
Thomas looked at his father excitedly, his watery eyes gleaming with light. He held the phone tightly in
his hand and wanted his father to go upstairs with him.
Terence sighed, squatted down and touched his head helplessly. He guessed that Hester wouldn't like
him to go up!
"Since Auntie April asked you to go upstairs, just go! I have something to deal with in the company. You
have to be obedient, okay?"
"Okay!"
Disappointed, Thomas lowered his head and stared blankly at the ground. Originally, his best state was
to let his parents be together, but the reality was always a little different.
"Okay!"
"Lisa, take Thomas upstairs!"
Terence was worried that Thomas would go upstairs alone, so he signaled Lisa to go with him. Then he
turned around, got in the car and left.
Looking at the disappearing car, Hester exhaled a mouthful of air. She turned around and opened the
door, waiting quietly for Thomas.
"Auntie April!"
The moment the elevator door opened, Thomas ran over excitedly. His hands tightly held Hester's legs,
and his smiling face was slightly red because of excitement.
Hester bent down and held Thomas firmly in her arms. Her heart that was hanging in the air finally
returned to its original position. She was really worried that he would fall when she saw him running
towards her.
"Why is your body so hot?"
Noticing the strange temperature from him, she frowned and looked up at Lisa.
"The young master caught a cold last night, so he has a fever today. But you don't have to worry since
he has taken the medicine!"
Lisa nodded slightly and explained to Hester unhurriedly. She looked at Thomas and sighed.
"No wonder he is more clingy than usual when he is sick!"
Hester nodded and understood why he was so dependent on her at this moment. But she didn't
understand why Thomas insisted on coming to her when he was sick.
And his mother, Melody, why couldn't he see her?
"Lisa, have you taken Thomas to the doctor?"
"Yes, I've taken him there and got the medicine. Everything was fine, but the young master suddenly
asked to see you, so the Mr. Terence had no choice but to send him here!"
Lisa answered Hester patiently and carefully. She didn't dare to make any mistake.
Looking up at Lisa, Hester frowned and stopped asking. She raised her hand to touch Thomas' hot
forehead, feeling very anxious.
Children were always weak, and now he was sick, which made people more worried.
"Auntie April, I'm a little sleepy."
Thomas' eyelids were heavy, and he was a little dizzy. He looked at the person in front of him and said
softly. A pair of hot little hands tightly held Hester, making her unable to let go.
When he was a child, what he envied most was that other children had their mothers accompanying
them when they were sick. Now his mother was back. How happy he was!
Holding the person in front of her in her arms, Hester walked into the room and gently put him on the
bed. She patted him on the back, with an inexplicable feeling surging in her heart.
Every time she saw Thomas' face, she would always be in a trance. It was as if there was an invisible
thread pulling back and forth, causing them to meet.
"Auntie April, please don't leave. Stay with me, okay?"
Thomas noticed that Hester's hand was a little loosened, so he forced himself to cheer up and looked
morbid, which was very pitiful. He looked at her nervously and cowardly. There were too many
emotions mixed in, which could not be seen clearly, but only heartache.
Hester's heart trembled fiercely. She squatted down and wrapped his little hand in her palm. She
lowered her voice and coaxed the person in front of her to sleep.
"Okay! I won't go anywhere. I will stay here with you."
Hearing her promise, Thomas closed his eyes obediently. In the end, he fell asleep because of the
effect of the medicine.
Listening to Thomas' steady breath, Hester's feet were a little numb. However, Thomas held her too
tightly. She was afraid that her movements would disturb him, so she gritted her teeth and insisted.
"Miss Hester, please have a seat!"
Seeing this, Lisa found a cushion and put it under Hester. She looked at the sleeping Thomas and felt
relieved.
"Thank you, Miss Hester!"
Frowning, Hester looked into Lisa's eyes and smiled.
"Lisa, what are you talking about?"
"I mean, thank you so much for accompanying the young master!"
"It's not a big deal. Besides, I just like him and want to take care of him. It's nothing!"
