Eric wanted Yasmin to take care of Chance?Mitchell thought he had misheard.“Mr. Ferguson, this…”Finding a professional nanny was better than finding a random person.Chance was often bullied at school because he had a speech disability.There was nothing they could do in school since they could not pay attention to him all the time.For the sake of the child’s physical and mental health, the school came up with two solutions.Chance could switch schools for a change of environment, which would be good for his development. Or he could go home every day after school so that he did not have to live alone in school. This way would be better for Chance’s character development.Otherwise, this child would be ruined.Eric did not decide yet.It looked like Eric casually wanted Yasmin, who popped out of nowhere, to take care of the little nuisance in Eric’s eyes.However...Mitchell felt that something was wrong. Seeing Eric’s firm expression, Mitchell could not say anything.T
Cheryl bent down and looked at Chance with a serious face. Her voice was gentle and soft.“Chance, I’ll see you next time…”Chance raised his eyes and waved his hand.He had basic politeness.Cheryl turned around and left happily.Yasmin held Chance's hand gently and smiled gracefully.“Young Master, shall we go home?”She carefully took Chance’s schoolbag and took his hand, leading him into the car.The driver saw that Yasmin was so thoughtful and considerate and felt happy for Chance.Chance sat obediently in the car without saying a word.He looked sideways and saw his good friend Levi through the window.He also saw a familiar woman.It was the woman who rescued him from the fire that day.In an instant, Chance stuck his face to the window with excitement and stared at them.It was too bad that he could not speak.Chance watched that beautiful woman as she hugged and kissed Levi. Levi dodged helplessly, and the two of them ran outside playing.She looked so down-to-
Yasmin was stunned for a moment. She seemed even more remorseful.“Mr. Ferguson is coming? Will he blame me for not taking good care of the young master? I really didn’t mean for this to happen. I don’t know why the young master suddenly had a fever. The young master is so well-behaved and sensible. I just wished that I could suffer all this for him instead!”Mitchell paused. He thought that he was too harsh, which scared her.“Don’t worry. At least you sent him to the hospital in time. The doctor said that if you hadn’t brought him over in time, the young master might have suffered brain damage.”This was a near miss.Otherwise, if the young master had brain damage, he would have a tough life.Yasmin sniffled.“Mr. Crawford, please help me to beg for mercy later. Don’t kick me out. I’ll definitely take care of the young master.”Mitchell frowned.“It depends on Mr. Ferguson.”He did not want to continue speaking.Mitchell turned around and went to another side to go through
After Nicole hung up the phone, she still could not digest the news.Nicole had seen Tina a few hours ago. Tina even bragged that she was about to be freed from a failed marriage.How did she die so suddenly?Nicole immediately felt a chill all over her body.The soles of her feet felt cold.Clayton carried Nicole to the sofa and patted her on the shoulder gently.“I’m sorry. I should’ve gone up with you last night.”Something must have happened last night, but Nicole was too tired at the time to notice.Clayton touched her face.“It’s okay. I know you didn’t do it. Everything will be fine as long as you explain what happened clearly. I’ll take care of the rest for you.”Nicole’s expression suddenly changed.She tugged on his clothes.“This isn’t right. Is it related to our house’s intruder from before? Tina knows me. Is that person targeting me?”It was hard for Nicole not to doubt herself. Why was she involved in this?Clayton kissed the back of her hand.He patiently
Clayton forced a smile in response to Nicole’s question.“It’s hard to say!”It was meaningful.At the hospital, the other floors besides the affected areas were open as usual.After all, the hospital was not an ordinary public area. Even if someone died, they could not delay other life-saving operations.Nicole walked in with a heavy heart.She felt pity for Tina.Although Tina brought it upon herself, Nicole still felt that Tina was a pitiful woman.Nicole could not blame a pitiful, hopeless woman for being useless.The closer she got to the floor, the weirder she felt.Clayton contacted the hospital’s director in advance. The dean had just come from the police station with a heavy heart as well.“Mr. Sloan, Ms. Stanton, what are you doing here? I believe in Ms. Stanton’s innocence. Have you made it clear to the police?”Nicole smiled and nodded.“Director, do you have the surveillance footage for this floor?”The director replied, “The police took one copy, and I have
The director was stunned for a moment and had some doubts.Clayton explained. “This spells trouble for the hospital. If word gets out that a patient jumped off the hospital building, what will happen to the hospital’s credibility?”He did not continue the rest, but the director understood in an instant.If Eric came forward, this matter would be resolved faster.He just had some doubts. With Clayton’s and Nicole’s background and influence, it would not be difficult to cover up this matter.Why did they want to involve Eric into this?The director could not figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.Since Clayton pointed him in a direction, the director had no choice but to do as told.Clayton and Nicole stood up.Nicole pursed her lips. “What did the police conclude on their investigation at the crime scene? Were there any signs of struggle?”The director paused and nodded.Nicole’s heart sank slightly. She understood in an instant.It was no wonder the police dared to
Chance’s expectations of his father were no longer as high as they were in the beginning.He gradually accepted that his father did not like him.Eric cared more about Uncle Mitchell and did not care about him.Uncle Mitchell said that there was a reason for it and that he would understand when he grew up.However, could he survive until then?Nicole sat there for less than two minutes before Clayton brought the doctor over.She stood up and was about to walk away when Chance opened his eyes, took her hand, and looked at her pitifully.Nicole suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.In the next second, Clayton walked over with a smile, took Chance’s hand away from Nicole, held his hand, and sat in Nicole’s seat. He said with a smile, “Do you need to be coaxed to sleep? I’m more experienced in taking care of children. Let me!”Nicole raised her eyebrows and nodded immediately.“Right, go ahead!”She completely believed in Clayton’s ability.Clayton could even control the little
The corner of Yasmin’s mouth twitched as she leaned forward slightly.Her eyes suddenly became gentle as she reached out to touch Chance’s fair and tender little face.However, she did not have much emotion.“Chance, Mommy is doing this for your own good. Didn’t you always want our little family of three to be together forever? As long as you help Mommy and Daddy stay together, we can be reunited.”Chance lay stiffly on the bed and tried his best to close his eyes, pretending to be asleep.He pretended not to hear Yasmin’s horrifying words.Yasmin did not get mad either.She gently touched Chance’s small fist.In the next second, Chance shuddered out of panic, and the thing in his hand fell out.Yasmin’s eyes flickered slightly. She picked up the earring, and her eyes gradually turned cold.If she remembered correctly, Nicole had the same earring on one of her ears just now.Her eyes gradually darkened as she looked at Chance’s face.Chance opened his eyes, looking very ner
