Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick)

Chapter 1426

When the family doctor was busy giving Brittany an IV drip, Alice stood by the side and asked worriedly, "Doctor, Brittany's fever was already gone this morning. Why did the fever come back so quickly?"

After the family doctor stuck the needle into the vein on the back of Brittany's hand, he stood up and said to Alice, "Madam Alice, I don't know what's going on either. But, please help me recall carefully. Did Miss Brittany do something that caused her to suffer from a cold again after the fever went down?"

After his reminder, Alice suddenly remembered, "When Brittany woke up this morning, she did go to the bathroom to take a shower. But, she took a hot shower. So, I thought it would be fine."

The family doctor shook his head gently and said, "Madam Alice, Miss Brittany's body has become much weaker than before after the miscarriage. She must have fallen sick again after the shower."

Alice turned to look at Brittany who was lying on the bed, unconscious with a reddened face. Her mouth was slightly parted as if she was gasping for air. It looked like she couldn't breathe.

As soon as the doctor saw the look on Alice's face, the family doctor quickly said, "Madam Alice, though I've already given Miss Brittany a treatment, the medical conditions in the house are limited. If Miss Brittany's condition doesn't become better before dinner, then please send her to the hospital. If the fever turns into pneumonia, it'll be troublesome."

"Okay, I got it. Thank you, doctor!" Alice said gratefully and sat down by Brittany's bed, looking at her with concern and self-blame.

Watching Brittany's frail face, Alice burst into tears. It was her fault for not taking care of her child in these twenty-four hours!

Brittany had put in a lot of effort to make sure she stayed in Northville. In return, her sacrifice had succeeded in causing the rheum to infect her lungs, and she was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment that same night. As for sending her back to school, Alice who was guilt-ridden had naturally forgotten all about it.

Although Amelia thought it was a curious coincidence, she did not ponder much on it. After all, who would have thought that the pampered Brittany would take her health for granted just to stay at Northville?

The next morning, during the weekend.

At one of the villas at Streams Villa.

In the living room, a plush and clean blanket was placed on the white marble floor. An adult and a child were sitting on it, then the adult said to the child in a coaxing tone, "Abner, Mommy will teach you how to read a story. Okay?"

Abner stopped fiddling with the airplane models. He raised his huge dark eyes and looked up at Sissi with a resentful stare.
