Chapter 887: Chapter 887
Adam Ross drove Charlotte Thompson’s car back and also sent a set of clean clothes for her.
During this period, Charlotte had been staying by Chad Thompson’s sickbed, not leaving for a moment.
Charlotte was already frail, and her entire body had been soaked in the rain; coupled with her constant worry, her complexion now looked very haggard.
This made Adam Ross somewhat concerned about Charlotte’s health.
"Charlotte, you should go rest for a while."
Listening to this, Charlotte shook her head, "I want to be here when Chad wakes up." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novelꜰire.net
"But you can’t just ignore your own health, can you?" Adam Ross tried to persuade her dissatisfiedly.
"Do you really want to see Chad get better and then your illness worsens?"
Hearing this, Charlotte’s eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
"And if Uncle knows about it, he would probably feel heartbroken, you don’t want to make him worry, right?"
Adam Ross now had to reluctantly bring Justin Battleson into the conversation.
But given the events of today, Adam felt his good days were over.
Indeed, upon mentioning Justin Battleson, Charlotte’s expression appeared to waver; just as she slowly stood up, Chad on the bed let out a light groan, seemingly showing signs of waking up.
This made Charlotte shift her attention back to Chad’s face.
Adam Ross also edged closer to the sickbed with some nervousness.
Indeed, the next second Chad’s eyelashes fluttered, and then he slowly opened his eyes.
"Chad, you’re finally awake, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Charlotte asked anxiously.
However, Chad blinked and turned his gaze toward Jack Thompson standing beside him.
"Brother... I think I’m hallucinating; I saw mom..."
The continuous high fever had made Chad’s voice somewhat hoarse.
Charlotte, feeling very distressed, gently touched his somewhat pale face and said softly, "Chad, it’s not a hallucination. Mom is right in front of you, Mom has come to take you and Jack home."
Chad’s pupils trembled slightly.
He raised his hand that was on the IV, trying to touch Charlotte, but Charlotte had already quickly grasped his fingertips.
"Yes, Mom’s here, Mom’s always been here with you."
"It’s wonderful to see Mom as soon as I wake up. Mom, please don’t leave Chad anymore, okay? Chad doesn’t like being sick; it’s too uncomfortable..."
"Okay, Mom promises you, Mom will always be by Chad’s side. Chad must get better soon, Cyrus, Hank, Grace, and Annie are all waiting for you to go home."
Charlotte checked Chad’s forehead temperature, and realizing that his fever had finally subsided, she tucked him in once more.
On Adam’s side, he had a doctor come in to check on Chad, who insisted on having Charlotte with him.
Outside the sickroom, Mr. Ross’s gaze had been fixed on Charlotte, and he observed every move she made while caring for Chad.
To be honest, Mr. Ross was somewhat surprised to see Charlotte soaked and rushing to the hospital.
At the same time, he was also somewhat angry about Charlotte’s attitude toward him.
But he could see that Charlotte truly cared for Jack and Chad.
However, out of selfishness, Mr. Ross still did not want to return Jack and Chad to Charlotte, as the children were the bloodline of the Ross family, and it would not be fitting to raise them elsewhere.
Mr. Ross could not help but sigh.
Listening to this, Adam spoke, "Mr. Ross, Jack and Chad are still young, why do you insist on bringing them back to the Ross family at such an early age? You should also be aware of what kind of characters the children have. Wouldn’t it be better for them to return to the Ross family when they’re a bit older?"
