“Ma’am, how are you feeling?” Skyler looked worriedly at the woman in the hospital bed.
“Fine, I’m fine, I’m really bothering you guys, coming all the way over here to see me.” Mrs. Knight coughed.
Dolly was also surprised by Skyler and Stephen’s arrival. Because she hadn’t told them about it at all.
“Hey, you’re really the same, I had to ask someone else to know about such a big thing.” Skyler complained in a low voice.
“No, it’s mainly because I don’t want you to come out when I see you’re pregnant and your belly is already getting bigger …” Dolly immediately explained.
The two women exchanged a few words in front of the window and looked very happy.
As the days went by, Mrs. Knight’s health slowly had begun to improve.
“I want to get out of the hospital.” The person in the hospital bed suddenly spoke.
Dolly, who was on the sofa, had some difficulties. It was true that she had been in the hospital for a long time, but she was afraid that something else would happen to Mrs. Knight after she was discharged.
“Ma’am, can we stay a few more days?” Dolly tucked her in.
“Well, you should stop lying to me, I have already asked the doctor, I can be discharged, let’s go home, I don’t feel very comfortable staying here, I always feel as if I am some kind of dying person.” Mrs. Knight said deliberately.
In fact, she did not want to bother Dolly and Brayden back and forth all the time, too tired.
Unable to resist her, Dolly had to call Brayden, explained the situation, and went to pack her things.
“Sister.”
At the sound of the low voice, Dolly and Mrs. Knight looked over together, Stanley, what was he doing here? What’s he doing here with nutrition in his hand?
Mrs. Knight next to me froze, “Stanley? You …”
“I came to see madam, some time ago I went abroad, did not come to see madam, just came back today, so …” Stanley directly interrupted her words.
But that’s not the point! The point is, he and Mrs. Knight is not familiar, how can he suddenly bring something to visit her? Dolly’s eyes, full of questions.
“No, you …” she was a little speechless, not knowing what to say.
“Hey, come in, Dolly, don’t let people stand in the doorway.” Mrs. Knight hurriedly said.
Perhaps feeling a little embarrassed, Stanley scratched the back of his head and walked into the ward. In fact, he also knew that it was a bit abrupt for him to come over like this, so after many days of consideration, he still came over.
“Ma’am, are you guys going to be discharged from the hospital?” Stanley looked at her seriously and asked.
“Yes, I’m well enough to be discharged.” Mrs. Knight replied awkwardly.
She carefully looked at the man in front of her, with her past experience in looking at people, this Stanley, was not a good fighter. It was just that she really couldn’t imagine how Dolly could be entangled with him. If she said she was just doing it for payback, that would make sense.
“You’re Dolly’s schoolmate, huh.”
“Yes, she’s my schoolmate.” Stanley suddenly felt a little nervous.
The two talked for a while, and soon, Dolly had already packed up all her things.
“Hey, sis, I’ll take you guys back, I’m fine today anyway.” Stanley suddenly stood up.
Er … Mrs. Knight was a little upset, and Dolly was a little embarrassed.
The Brayden will be here soon, okay?
“That, no, Brayden is already on his way.” Dolly refused directly.
Sometimes she wondered why he would appear in front of her when she was already trying to avoid this man.
“Hey, Dolly, your phone is ringing.” Mrs. Knight pointed to the table not far away.
“Dolly, I can’t make it through today, there’s a temporary problem at work that needs to be addressed urgently …” Brayden whispered.
How is it again? Dolly’s eyes, there is a slight loss.
“Brayden, what’s wrong with you, you’re always like this lately …” she was really angry and hung up the phone before she finished her sentence. At this time Dolly, a gloomy face.
“What’s wrong? Is something wrong with Brayden?” Mrs. Knight rushed to ask.
“What can happen to him? He just can’t make it …” Dolly replied softly, her tone very dissatisfied.
Stanley, who was on the couch next to him, was thankful.
Brayden, today really have to thank you, Stanley’s mouth at the corner of a curve of satisfaction.
“Hey, Stanley, I’ll have to trouble you today.” Dolly walked up to him.
“Sister, what are you talking about, it’s all as it should be.” He hurriedly replied.
He would be happy to help him every day, let alone helping Dolly.
Dolly, like Mrs. Knight, was someone who didn’t like to owe people favors, so when Stanley sent them home from the hospital, she also dropped by to leave him at home for dinner.
“Mom!” Franklin jumped frantically into Dolly’s arms as soon as he walked in the door.
“Grandma, are you okay?” Franklin asked in a low voice, with a heartfelt concern in his tone.
“Yes, don’t worry, Grandma is fine now.” Mrs. Knight gently patted the child’s back and said comfortingly.
“That uncle …” the child pointed to Stanley on the sofa with his back to himself, wanting to say something.
“Franklin, it’s me, did you miss me?” Stanley stood up, went to Franklin and squatted down in front of him and asked.
“Wow, it’s Uncle Davidson, I missed you so much.” Franklin said excitedly hugging his neck.
Mrs. Knight looked at the scene in front of her and was a little surprised.
Since childhood, Franklin has always been difficult to integrate with unfamiliar people, how now and this Stanley play so high?
“At first Franklin was afraid to climb the rock, later it was Stanley who did the thinking work for him, and strange to say, the child was not afraid of heights from that time.” Dolly whispered as Mrs. Knight explained the reason for the incident.
“I’m back!” Brayden’s cool voice rang out across the yard.
Stanley in the living room, a wry glint in his eyes, he would like to see that Brayden, at the sight of his own reaction. Surprised? Disgusted? Disdain? Or fear? Panic?
“Daddy’s back.” Franklin hurriedly took Stanley’s hand and walked to Brayden’s side and said.
The moment Brayden was stunned, how could he be here, and why was Franklin so close to him? Brayden looked away, looked at Dolly in the kitchen, she was busy cooking, while Mrs. Knight was pruning the flowers in the yard, at once, the atmosphere was very awkward.
“Hello.” Brayden said with a faint greeting to Stanley.
“Is Mr. Kirkland not welcoming me?” Stanley asked bluntly.
Brayden tossed his business bag on the sofa.
“Dad, it was Uncle Davidson who attended that parent-child event for you …” Franklin reminded in a whisper.
