By the time Afonso arrived at the hospital in a hurry, he saw an adult woman lying unconscious in a hospital bed, and her precious son, Neo, was dead, lying on the edge of the bed with his pajamas intact. He's fast asleep right now.
Afonso was a little confused to see such a sight.
"Neo."
Neo responded to the small disturbance around him, and when he saw Afonso, his expression softened slightly. He held up the picture in his hand.
It was an image drawn using crayons, which was a favorite of Neo. He could not speak, and his vocabulary was also limited, so in order to express his more complicated thoughts, he would present his thoughts in the form of images.
In the first picture, a woman is depicted breastfeeding a child and the child looks very happy from the way the corners of her lips are raised.
In the second picture, the woman is holding the child's hand and looks like she's about to go somewhere. There were clouds around them and within those clouds was a castle that resembled a playground.
In the third picture, a golden chandelier broke on the ground, and the woman was holding the child tightly with one of her hands stuck under the chandelier. There was a bright red color coloring her hands, signaling she was bleeding.
“Hmm...” Neo pulls Afonso to the side of the bed and points at the bedridden woman before pointing at the woman pictured in his photo. He tries to say that they are the same person.
Afonso glanced at the bedridden patient hesitantly. He had a pale face and a grim expression.
It was the same woman he had met before!
Turns out this is the woman who sacrificed for Neo and saved Neo's life?
When he remembered that he had treated her badly before, his expression became somewhat hazy and complicated.
It seemed that Neo still wanted to say something, but when he saw Viola who was behind Afonso, his face immediately turned pale then he let go of Afonso's hand and shrank back to the bed.
"Neo, what's wrong?" Afonso did not notice anything strange in the look in his eyes. She thought Neo just hated her for not taking her to the theme section for fun, so her voice became softer, "I'm really sorry for what happened today. From now on, I will keep all my promises. Alright?"
Neo's expression was still very frightened and inexplicably he kept his distance from Afonso.
"Head of the maid."
Afonso could do nothing, so he called his butler who stood at the door, "Take Neo home first. It's very late now. He needs a break."
However, Neo simply shook his head without letting go of his bed.
Afonso was unable to understand Neo, so he asked, “Neo, what's up?”
"Let me help you. I think he's had too many surprises today." Viola offered his help by crouching down and patting Neo on the head.
"Neo, do you want to have dinner with me?"
Neo looked trembling and his eyes were instantly filled with fear. He breaks away from Viola and hides behind Afonso while holding his pants.
"He must be scared." Viola did not know how to explain his reaction, so he just sighed, “Vi, you have to let the butler take care of the situation here, we have to jointly bring Neo home now. The boy needs to rest."
Afonso glanced hesitantly at Winnie who was still unconscious and instructed the doctor to make sure she could recover before leaving.
...
When their nanny finally managed to put Neo to sleep, Afonso just came out of his bedroom. He put a serious expression on his face as if he was still thinking about what had happened the previous day.
Viola is still in the living room. He hasn't left yet.
“How's Neo doing? Is he asleep?”
"Yes." Yeah." Afonso nodded and then looked at the clock. He advised her, "Now it is late, you must go home now."
"Don't worry. My driver is on his way." Viola glanced at the bedroom on the second floor and added, "Neo is too young and it's not a good idea to be by your side all the time. Look, something bad has happened today and it really scares everyone. You better find someone to take care of him. Your grandfather was right about this."
Afonso looked at him, he was seriously considering his offer.
...
After exiting Afonso's villa, Viola got into the babysitter's car.
The car came out of the high-class villa area. In the car, the worried voice of the driver was heard.
"Viola, it was originally done without any problems but the hotel manager appeared unexpectedly. He's so insensitive."
"It's okay." A sinister expression appeared on Viola's face.
“If you really crush that child to death, it is not necessarily good for us, so just leave it like this. It would be better if this could give Afonso goosebumps. This way, he would consider the matter. The marriage problem."
"Then the boy..."
“Don't do anything to her for a while. There are many opportunities in the future"
Viola stared at his fingernails that were studded with sparkling diamonds. He seemed very unconcerned.
"I will often go to the hotel for a walk in these two days. You tell the new assistant to prepare more of the things the kids love. I'll bring it."
"All right."
...
Winnie was aware of the severe pain. He had a bad dream, he slightly moved his numb arm and this made him feel an incredible pain. She looked extremely painful and the moment she opened her eyes, she was already drenched in sweat.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a pure white color.
"Mom! Are you awake?"
He heard the familiar voice of a child. Zoe was lying on the side of the bed holding her unharmed hand. Zoe's eyes turned red, "Mom, you really scared me."
Winnie. He tried to remember for a moment and remembered that the reason he was in the all-white room was when he was injured by a sharp object for saving someone. It is true that this place is a hospital.
But why is his daughter here?
“Zoe, why are you here? Did I sleep a long time?”
“How can you still say this?” Zoe wiped her tears and said with an angry face, "It's not easy for me to go to the hotel to look for you and surprise you, but once I get there, I hear you're in the hospital. You're scaring me."
Hearing that, Winnie felt moved and apologized, "Sorry, Zoe. Mommy does make you worry."
"How am I not worried? You always tell me to take care of myself first before I take care of others but you risk your life to save others. What if your head hits?"
Zoe pouted in anger, "I'm still counting on you to raise me! If you die, how can I survive?"
Winnie was initially touched but after hearing the last sentence, her throat felt choked. Wordlessly, she looked at her heartless daughter and endured the pain to raise her hand and scratch Zoe's nose.
"Bad girl, you only know let me raise you. It's a real hassle raising you."
"No trouble raising me!" Zoe snorted and held his arm like a little adult, looking at him, "Where will you find girls like me, girls who can cook, do laundry, and find girls who can do laundry, and doing housework at five?"
“Yes, yes, yes, you are very good. I also depend on you to take care of me, right?” Winnie didn't bother to argue with him.
This girl has had a silver tongue since she got older. Arguing with this girl would eventually lead to her being defeated.
As they spoke, a knock on the door sounded.
"Lake in." Winnie glanced at the door in confusion.
"Miss Chamber." The one who entered was a middle-aged man. Winnie remembered that she was the butler who took care of the little boy. Right now, he entered respectfully while carrying two large bags filled with nourishing products.
“This is what my young master ordered me to prepare. Miss Chamber's bones are injured, these things are efficient to promote bone growth.My young master also entrusted me to say thank you to you. I'm sorry that my young master can't stay here long, because he has to bring his little son home. For that, she asked me to deliver this as her thank you."
