Hayden was so scared that he immediately stood up straight. “Mr. Darion, originally it was said food poisoning happened in Flower Kindergarten. Some children were indeed fine, but later on, our guys found Mrs. Lambert in the ICU.”
“Why did they end up in ICU?” Derek grabbed Hayden by the tie.
“I’m not too sure, either. I was told that Cherry wasn’t doing well. The doctor even gave notice of the critical condition.”
“Bastard!” Derek roared furiously. “Book a plane ticket for me immediately. I’m heading back!”
“But, Mr. Darion, you still have an important banquet to attend today.”
“Cancel it! I want you to book a plane ticket for me RIGHT NOW!”
“Yes!” Hayden did not dare to delay any longer.
In the Children’s Hospital.
When Cherry woke up, Serina just bought millet porridge from the hospital canteen. The doctor said that Cherry could only eat liquid food these days.
After Cherry had done with the drip, Serina began to feed Cherry millet porridge.
When her kids were only several months old, the age when kids usually started to eat supplementary food, Serina fed them with all kinds of baby food she made herself. After Serina stopped breastfeeding the kids, she made several different dishes for them every single day.
Serina’s kids thus became fussy eaters.
Cherry had only a few mouthfuls of porridge and then pushed the bowl to the side, “Mommy, I want to eat the sweet and sour spare ribs you made, as well as chicken pieces in tomato sauce, and…”
“You can’t,” Serina interrupted Cherry. “Cherry, do you know why you are hospitalized?”
Cherry shook her head innocently. “Why? Blueberry said that many children are hospitalized. It’s not like I’m the only one here.”
“Then why are you in the hospital? Why isn’t Blueberry here as well?”
“You’ve made a point. Why then?”
“Something was wrong with the braised pork served in the kindergarten. You ate all the braised pork of Blueberry that day, so Blueberry was not hospitalized.”
Cherry looked at Blueberry. “Blueberry, you’ll have to thank me. Otherwise, you will have to be hospitalized and put on a drip as well!”
Serina sighed. What kind of mindset was that?
Serina knocked on Cherry’s little head. “Cherry, because you are too picky with your food, you were poisoned most severely. In the future, you can’t be too greedy while eating, and you can’t be picky with your food. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Cherry, you can’t do this again. You scared Mommy, and Mommy cried so sadly,” Blueberry immediately added.
Cherry pouted. “Okay, I know I was wrong, Mommy. But, I want to have some cooked dishes. I don’t want to have porridge alone.”
“Baby, you are still in the hospital these days. The doctor said that you can only have a little porridge and can’t eat vegetables. Be good and get better quickly. When we get home, Mommy will cook delicious food for you, okay?”
Cherry pouted pitifully.
“I’ll accompany you for the next few days. I’ll only eat porridge as well. When you get better, Mommy will make us delicious food!”
Cherry nodded.
Serina finally managed to feed Cherry a bowl of millet porridge.
Blueberry saw the man at the door when she turned around. She then shouted happily, “Uncle Sammy!”
Blueberry hopped over to Sammy at the door. Sammy was as handsome as before, with a bright smile on his face, holding the toys he bought for the children.
“Uncle Sammy, we haven’t seen each other for a long time.” Blueberry jumped into Sammy’s arms.
“Indeed! Did you miss me?”
“Yes!” Blueberry smiled happily.
Sammy held Blueberry and walked to the bedside. Serina stood up. “What brought you here?”
“I heard that Cherry is sick, so I came to take a look. How is she doing? Cherry, are you feeling better?” Sammy held a Hello-Kitty doll in his hand and waved it at Cherry.
“I’m feeling much better, Uncle Sammy!” Cherry took the Hello-Kitty doll and held it in her arms.
Sammy had been in contact with Serina for the past few years. However, Serina seemed to be deliberately avoiding Sammy. After all, Serina had given birth to Derek’s two daughters. Besides, Clara was between them, so the two of them could never return to the past after all.
Serina told Blueberry to play with Cherry in the ward, while Serina and Sammy walked out of the ward together.
“Serina, why didn’t you tell me that Cherry was badly ill?” Sammy sounded worried.
After all, Serina was just a woman. It was not easy for her to take care of her two daughters alone.
Serina pursed her lips and smiled. Although she still looked tired, her smile was genuine.
“She’s fine now. Back then, I freaked out and my mind went blank. I only listened to the doctor and didn’t think too much.”
“This time, there was no danger. However, if something like this happens again in the future, you have to let me know. Call me immediately.”
Serina nodded. “How have you been? It seems that you have been very busy according to your WeChat Moments.”
“Yes, indeed. I’m taking charge of everything in the company now. My dad has left the office and started to enjoy his life after retiring.”
Serina pounded Sammy on the chest. “Great! You’re now the boss!”
Sammy stroked his chest and smiled. “Don’t make fun of me!”
The two of them suddenly ran out of topics.
After Clara was imprisoned, Sammy originally wanted to divorce her. However, after thinking about it, he felt that divorcing Clara under such a circumstance was undoubtedly like adding insult to her injury. Thus, he decided to wait for Clara to be released from prison and divorce her then.
“Serina, I heard Derek has come back?”
Serina smiled awkwardly. “Yes, he has.”
“Then why didn’t he come over? I heard that Derek founded the Dark Empire, and the Dark Empire was listed. The news these days was all about the Dark Empire listing and Derek.”
Serina lowered her eyelids. “He … Might be very busy. We have only met once.”
“I see.” Sammy stopped asking since he sensed Serina’s face darkened. “Don’t think too much about it, Serina. I got your back.”
Serina nodded with a smile.
Because Sammy had a meeting to attend, Serina saw him off.
Serina suddenly remembered that because of the accident, she had not updated her novel for the past few days. The readers must be dying for her updates. Nora knew about her situation, so she did not rush Serina. Nora even specially released a notice for Serina on the website.
Cherry’s condition had stabilized in the past two days, so Serina could spare some time to write the scripts these days.
Thinking of this, Serina drove back home. There were special nurses in the hospital. Blueberry wouldn’t run around. Everything should be fine.
Serina hurried back home, picked up the laptop, and rushed back to the hospital.
Serina never thought that she would see Zoe in the Children’s Hospital.
What an unpleasant coincidence!
Serina hugged her laptop and wanted to leave quickly, but she was stopped by Zoe.
