Chapter 207: Chapter 207
After all, he hadn’t spent time with him for such a long time, so he felt a little guilty. He held Evan Quinn in his arms and returned to his room, ready to tell him a bedtime story.
Landon Lawson truly did not dare to be careless with this little one’s health, as even a tiny slip might agitate Sienna Quinn. Evan Quinn is that unapproachable nerve in Sienna Quinn’s heart; if anyone dares to harm her son, she could indeed react with drastic measures.
"Where did Sienna leave off with the story last time?"
Landon Lawson spoke with an extremely gentle tone, completely unlike the decisive and efficient person he usually was in the company. Maybe not many people had the opportunity to see this side of him.
"Sienna said that after the little horse listened to the mouse and the hippo, he wasn’t sure whether to cross the river and planned to go home and ask his mother for advice."
Evan Quinn earnestly recalled, falling asleep every day accompanied by questions, eagerly awaiting answers. Children are curious about all new things and all questions, always wanting to find solutions.
"Oh, what do you think the little horse’s mother would say to him?
"Landon Lawson was not only skilled in managing the company but was also excellent at educating his children. He understood that children should develop the habit of thinking about problems from a young age.
Rather than blindly drilling answers into his mind, the goal was to teach him innovation instead of memories of rigid rules and theories.
"The little horse’s mother would definitely tell him to cross the river confidently because the mouse is shorter than the little horse and the hippo is taller. The little horse should measure these things according to his own height."
The more Evan Quinn spoke, the more confused he felt; his voice even changed a bit, and he started feeling dizzy.
Landon Lawson sensed that something was wrong.
Without warning, Evan Quinn let out a violent sneeze and then dropped into Landon Lawson’s arms.
Landon Lawson started to panic a little and touched Evan Quinn’s forehead, finding it very hot and thinking about taking him to the hospital.
"I don’t want to go to the hospital, I want Sienna," Evan Quinn said pitifully, clutching Landon Lawson’s collar tightly with a pleading look in his big watery eyes. He had never thought that catching a cold and having a fever could be such uncomfortable things.
But he had decided not to let the cold go to waste; he should take this opportunity to make Landon Lawson and Sienna meet first; otherwise, all his efforts today would be in vain.
"How can you not go to the hospital when you’re sick?"
Though Landon Lawson was very angry, thinking it must be because Evan Quinn caught a cold by not dressing after a bath. But looking at this pitiful little figure, he couldn’t even muster anger. His heart ached too much to have any energy left to scold him.
After all, he was just a child with a headstrong side.
"Mommy, I want Mommy," Evan Quinn seized this chance to achieve his goal. He knew that now, when he felt the worst, no matter what he said, Landon Lawson would agree with him.
And surely, Sienna wouldn’t refuse either. For these two people today, he was really going all out.
A wave of dizziness hit him, and Evan Quinn’s vision began to blur. He didn’t know how long he could hold on, regardless of whether he succeeded today or not. He certainly wouldn’t let himself fall ill again, as it truly was too hard and too uncomfortable.
"Alright, I’ll call Sienna now to have her come over and stay with you. Then, when she arrives, we’ll go to the hospital together, okay?"
Landon Lawson, very patiently, coaxed and persuaded him.
Evan Quinn felt that his little plan had worked, and he felt much happier, as if he couldn’t feel any pain anymore. A smile spread across his rosy little face, and he leaned against Landon Lawson’s chest, listening to the strong heartbeat of the man, and fell asleep deeply.

Still dealing with matters at hand, Sienna Quinn had already drafted a plan targeting Quinn Group, but given its long-standing roots in this city,
she knew that even the Yates Group would find unwinding it a slow and challenging process.
Suddenly, a burst of a noisy ringtone interrupted her thoughts, her brow furrowing slightly as she looked at the caller ID—Landon Lawson?
The unexpected call made her feel very nervous; Landon wouldn’t call her this late if there weren’t any issues.
"Evan Quinn has a fever, come to my place.
"Landon’s tone was somewhat unfamiliar because his feelings were incredibly complicated right now. His son fell ill while staying at his house, and he felt that Sienna might blame him for not taking good care of their son.
"What? A fever? I’ll be there right away.
"Sienna felt extremely anxious upon hearing this, vividly remembering how tough it was the last time her son had a fever and required injections, causing Evan Quinn to cry, which was heartbreaking for her. And he hadn’t even caught a cold.
Sienna didn’t even take time to put on more clothes, grabbed a coat, and drove to the Lawson household. Before long, she rushed in hurriedly.
Seeing Evan Quinn lying in bed, his face red and flushed, her anger burst out in an instant, but she knew it wasn’t the right moment to lose her temper. The lack of care for her son might partly be her fault as well.
"Mommy." Seeing Sienna, Evan Quinn’s weak little voice came out hoarsely, already soft and fragile, yet became even more feeble because of the cold.
Lying there with two red blushes on his cheeks, Sienna felt more and more distressed. After all, he was her precious son, born after ten months of pregnancy.
In these five years, the two had been relying on each other for survival, encountering such situations; how could it not hurt Sienna’s heart?
Quickly sitting by his side, she gently kneaded Evan Quinn’s soft, boneless little hand, her eyes filled with worry.
Hearing Sienna’s voice, Evan Quinn felt very delighted, knowing his carefully concocted little plot had finally succeeded.
"Hold on a little, we’ll take you to the hospital soon."
Sienna was both worried and angry, almost losing her composure in her rush, not sure what exactly to do at the moment.
"Daddy just gave me medicine, and I drank a big glass of hot water, feeling much better now. I don’t want to go to the hospital; I don’t want the pretty nurse to give Chloe an injection."
Evan Quinn’s greatest skill was likely playing cute. Once he started to act adorable, even if he wanted the stars and moon in the sky, Landon and Sienna might unhesitatingly try to get it for him.
For he possessed an immense unique advantage.
And Evan Quinn had a certain knack for recognizing opportunities. He would fully leverage this, as his plan had merely just begun.
