“Daddy’s sick, so we want to take care of him” Lucas blinked innocently.
“We took care of you when you were sick, too,” Camila chimed in to express her agreement.
Christina was baffled, not knowing how to explain the situation to the children. “It’s different. Daddy’s
condition is more serious. I’d be worried if you two fell ill, too.”
Lucas and Camila fell silent immediately because their mother had a point.
The two children considered awhile before uttering in unison, “We’ll leave the responsibility of caring for
Daddy to you, then.”
“Huh?” Christina almost choked. She carried the children to their room and said, “I can just leave him to
Raymond and Mr. Taggart. I still need to take care of you two.”
“That won’t do. Daddy’s a part of our family. It’s only right for family members to take care of him.
Mommy, why do you not want to take care of Daddy?” questioned Lucas with his arms crossed like an
adult.
Camila’s lips were pursed into a line as she pinned a dubious gaze on her mother. “Do you not see
Daddy as one of us?”
Christina was amused by their persistent questions.
“It was you who said family members should love one another. Was it all a lie?” Lucas pressed on with
his head tilted, appearing confused.
“No. Mommy never lies,” Camila stated confidently.
Their conversation dumbfounded Christina. They won’t stop if I don’t go over to take care of Nathaniel
today. Given no choice, she agreed, “All right. I promise to go over to take care of him.”
It was not until they heard Christina’s promise did they feel at ease. With that, the children followed the
housekeeper to take their showers.
Christina was in no hurry to visit the study. Instead, she returned to her room after leaving the children’s
room.
It was not until she had taken a shower and changed into her pajamas did she head to the study.
Nathaniel was in an unconscious state. The weight loss made his charming features look more
chiseled.
The way Christina saw it, he was like an injured lion that would attack her even if she approached him
with good intentions.
She had not forgotten the naughty act he did at the banquet’s entrance last night.
He bit my lips.
Just then. Raymond walked in with a glass of warm water. “I’m sure Mr. Hadley will take his medicines
now that you’re here, Mrs. Hadley.”
Raymond, who usually worked leisurely, was exceptionally efficient that day. It did not take long for him
to set all the things on the coffee table and leave the study.
After feeding Nathaniel his medicine, Christina wiped him down with a towel.
That was when she recalled Sebastian mentioning the unhealed wound on Nathaniel’s back. It was
what caused the latter’s fever to recur.
Expending much effort, Christina finally flipped Nathaniel around.
Immediately, the white shirt smeared with blood came into view. The crimson stain was as striking as a
blooming red flower in the snow.
Sebastian wasn’t lying. Nathaniel’s condition is really serious.
The mottled wound was a shocking sight. Nonetheless, Christina fetched a bottle of anti-inflammatory
medicine and carefully cleaned his wound. Soon, a mountain of gauze and used cotton swabs was
stacked beside her.
There was an hour left until the next round of medicine intake after dealing with his wound. Hence,
Christina lay on the couch and scrolled through her phone to kill time.
In no time, she fell asleep on the armrest, and her phone slipped from her hand to the carpet..
The pitch-black sky slowly turned grey as midnight approached.
As Nathaniel’s eyes fluttered open, he felt a heated sensation by his legs, as if a heater was sitting on
them. Glancing over, he saw a curled-up figure hugging his thighs like they were a bolster.
Nathaniel sat up in response. As he was worried that Christina might catch a cold from the way she
slept. he carefully lifted her into his arms. Deep in her slumber, she opened her eyes drowsily and let
herself be carried upon recognizing the familiar face.
“Let’s go to our room to sleep.”
Christina drowsily murmured a response and continued sleeping in his embrace.
Nathaniel was feeling more energized after getting some sleep. Rising to his feet, he carried her in his
arms and walked to their room.
The two had not shared a bed in a long time. After all, Christina had been treating him coldly ever since
he returned.
Now that the opportunity presented itself, Nathaniel happily hugged her slender body and kissed her
hair, taking in her scent as he dozed off.
Rays of the morning sun flooded into the room the next day.
Christina woke up to find herself in bed with a sturdy arm resting on her waist. Looking up, she saw
Nathaniel sleeping soundly beside her.
She instinctively felt the man’s forehead. Great, his fever has subsided.
Letting out a sigh of relief, Christina quietly slipped out of bed, got changed, and left the room.
Lucas and Camila were having their breakfast on the first floor when they saw their mother descending
the stairs. Immediately, they asked, “Mommy, is Daddy feeling better?”
Flashing them a faint smile, Christina replied, “He’s much better, but he’s still sleeping. Well, we mustn’t
disturb him. I’ll send you to the kindergarten when you’ve finished your breakfast.”
The news of their father’s recovery almost sent the children leaping with joy. “Okay!”
After breakfast, Christina left the house with Lucas and Camila.
By the time Nathaniel was awake again, he was feeling much better. Even his back did not hurt
anymore.
When Nathaniel reached the first floor, Raymond had already placed his breakfast on the dining table.
Nathaniel took his seat to find a box of medicines and a note beside his cutleries.
The writing on the note was squiggly, which was clearly written by children. It read: Daddy, remember
to take your medicine, Love, Lucas and Camila.
“Mr. Lucas and Ms. Camila are really caring.” Raymond commented softly.
Good thing they persuaded Mrs. Hadley. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone over to take care of Mr.
Hadley.
Nathaniel had a simple breakfast and left the house with the box of medicines.
In the CEO’s office at Hadley Corporation, Nathaniel perused the documents in his office while
Sebastian sorted them out.
At noon, someone knocked on the door and pushed it open.
Madison entered with some homemade dishes. “Mr. Hadley, you shouldn’t exert yourself too much
when you’ve just recovered. Come here and have something to eat first.”
With that, she began spreading out the dishes on the table.
Sebastian could neither chase nor scold her. Hence, he walked out and left the door ajar to avoid
unnecessary gossip.
“Put the things down and leave,” hissed Nathaniel, his gaze still fixed on the documents.
Regardless, Madison walked over with a bowl of soup, paying no heed to his words.
“Mr. Hadley, please have some soup. I’ll leave when you’ve finished your meal.”
All she wanted was to see Nathaniel recover. That was enough to satisfy her.
Right then, the sound of footsteps came from outside, causing the two in the office to turn their heads.
Christina walked in at that very moment. She was worried Nathaniel might forget to take his medicine,
which could result in his fever recurring.
Whether or not he might have a fever was the least of her concern. Rather, it was the possibility of the
children contracting the bacteria that worried her.
“I didn’t know you have a guest,” stated Christina as she continued making her way into the office.
Madison rolled her eyes inwardly, annoyed by her words. Why don’t you leave then? Why did you
come in to
Christina passed Madison by and leaned against the office table on her side “Isn’t it rather
mappropriate for you to show up at the office now?”
