“Ma’am, it’s so late, why isn’t Dolly back yet?” Brayden asked anxiously in the living room.
Mrs. Knight looked at the sky outside, and it was indeed pitch dark.
This girl, why does she always do such unreliable things, she doesn’t answer the phone, she doesn’t answer the text messages, and she doesn’t know where Tian Tian is exactly.
“That, she may have something temporary.” Mrs. Knight smiled awkwardly and said.
She herself did not know exactly what Dolly was busy with in the last few days, but she had to hide this matter from Brayden, who did not want the two to fall out.
“It’s okay, she may be busy, you don’t have to wait for her, just go inside and sleep.” Mrs. Knight said deliberately.
He would be unhappy if he waited until midnight and Dolly came back.
“Grandma, where did mom go? Why does she always come back so late lately?” Suddenly, Franklin rubbed his eyes and came out of the room and asked.
At once, Brayden’s eyes dimmed. Hopefully, this is not the first time, it has been a while?
“What nonsense Franklin, Brayden you do not listen to his nonsense, Franklin must be sleepy.” Mrs. Knight hurriedly said and pushed the child into the room.
Looking at the reaction of the two people in front of him, Brayden’s heart, had some idea, he directly picked up the phone and dialed again.
Sure enough, no one answered the phone.
In the ward, Stanley was still smacking his lips and eating his dinner, which was fish cooked by Dolly herself, which Stanley had rigidly requested.
“Dolly, it’s still your cooking that’s good.” He smiled and whispered.
At that moment, Dolly next to him was full of embarrassment. Looking at her watch it was already late, she should call Mrs. Knight.
Picking up the phone, she walked out of the ward.
Looking at the departing back, Stanley’s eyes flashed a cold light.
Is she talking to Mrs. Knight? Stanley listened carefully for any movement outside.
“Hey ma’am, I’ve got something to do tonight, so I won’t go back first.” Dolly whispered.
“Aigoo my ancestor ah, you finally called me, look how many times I have called you, only now call me, this evening Brayden home, has been waiting for you, you’d better hurry back, he looks a little unhappy, you come back and talk to him properly.” Mrs. Knight hurriedly answered.
Dolly suddenly felt some panic. What should we do now? Go home? But what if something happens to Stanley in the middle of the night?
After half a day of hesitation, she finally decided that she would not go home.
“Madam, I really have something to do here, I can’t go back tonight.” Dolly said.
This girl, what is the matter, so that she did not even go home, and even Brayden also disappeared.
“Dolly, you tell me what’s going on.” Mrs. Knight asked, her tone very serious.
Dolly was hesitant to say anything like that.
“Nothing, ma’am, I’ll explain that to you when I get back, I’ll hang up now, you talk to Brayden for me.” Dolly hung up the phone directly.
Perhaps, on the phone, she really didn’t know how to explain this matter to Mrs. Knight, but she never wanted to hide it, she just thought it was not the right time yet.
“Dolly, what’s wrong?” Stanley asked tentatively.
“Nothing, have you had enough?” She asked rhetorically.
“Fine, why, are you in some kind of hurry?”
“Nothing, get an early night.” Dolly replied in a low voice and walked over to the couch next to her.
She didn’t know that Brayden, at this point, had long since run out of patience.
“Madam, that was Dolly just now, right? Where is she now?” Brayden asked coldly.
“Dolly said that she had something to take care of tonight, so she won’t come back first, as for where she is, actually I don’t know.” Mrs. Knight slowly replied.
Can’t hide it anymore, it’s better to tell him earlier, save him from finding out by himself later, the two will have more conflicts.
Hearing her words, Brayden did not say anything and walked straight into the room.
Now even dare to stay out all night! His heart a ball of anger. What kind of thing was so important that he had to go home?
The whole night Brayden lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He could not figure out what Dolly was up to every day.
The next morning, the sun shone through the window and warmed the ground. The man in the hospital bed, his eyes closed, was sleeping soundly, and the woman on the couch, too, looked haggard.
This night, everyone is peaceful, throughout the night, Stanley slept soundly.
Luckily, he didn’t have any accidents. After cleaning up a bit, Dolly was about to walk out of the hospital room.
“Dolly,” Stanley called out suddenly, probably sensing that she was leaving.
“What’s wrong?” The woman asked as she slowly turned around and looked at him.
“Where are you going?” The man asked lightly, but there was a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
“I’m going home to change my clothes.” Dolly answered immediately, shrugging at him.
She hadn’t been home last night, so she’d gotten up early in the morning and wanted to get home, hoping to see Brayden before he went to work.
“Oh.” Stanley replied, lost in thought.
There didn’t seem to be a reason for this to stop anymore, and there was a twinkle in his eye, a little moody.
Dolly didn’t say anything more and simply left.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Brayden, I wonder if he’s lost another round of weight?
In the ward, Stanley was alone, looking at the sky outside the window, in deep thought.
“What’s the matter, son, mom cooperated should be okay, right?” Suddenly, his mother walked into the ward and said.
“Why are you here again? Didn’t I tell you, I’m really fine, I’ll be discharged in two days.” Stanley said impatiently.
But the woman’s eyes were full of heartache. She hadn’t had a good look at her son for a long time, so why was he so disgusted when he came this time?
“Son, mom is just concerned about you, do you like that girl yesterday? If you like it, go after it.”
She didn’t know that Dolly was already married with children, she just thought her son liked her a lot, that’s why she chose to be on his side.
“Are you serious?” Stanley asked excitedly, with a bright light in his eyes.
This silly child, what else is true or false about this? Isn’t love always something you earn? Besides, she believes in her son’s vision.
Dolly, at this moment, was panting and arriving home.
“Mom?” Franklin shouted happily, somewhat surprised.
“Hey, Franklin, where’s Dad?” She asked anxiously.
“Daddy’s gone to work.” After hearing Franklin’s words, Dolly immediately looked disappointed.
