Chapter 178 The Circular Bathtub

Micah Clemens, upon seeing the parrot in Sadie's embrace, exhaled a sigh of relief: "I thought there was a kid, it's just a bird!"

"Hurry, we need to get it to the vet," Sadie urged frantically.

Poor Coco's wing was injured, the bird barely hanging onto life.

Micah Clemens swept Sadie Roth up in his arms, striding out of the room. A sudden crunch underfoot caused him to let out a startled "whoa," pausing to look down... It was a doll! Sadie Roth's heart skipped a beat-oh no, that was Mia's doll...

"Really? Still playing with dolls? How childish!" Micah commented, mistaking it as Sadie's plaything. Without giving it a second thought, he carried her swiftly away.

Inside, Sadie breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad she had sent Brenda and the kids away earlier, sparing them from a violent confrontation and avoiding an awkward encounter with Micah Clemens.

Plus, she was thankful for the cover of darkness in the house; it hid the toddler's toys from view. If Micah had seen the baby gear, he would've been onto the secret of the child...

Once they were in the car, Micah drove one-handed, freeing his other hand to call Dahlia: "Come over, she's hurt. And bring someone who can treat a bird-a vet."

"A bird?" Dahlia sounded puzzled on the phone but quickly responded with respect, "Yes, right away."
