Chapter 532 Theodore's Sweet Talk

Brandon was still stuck in the ICU, with Theodore and Taylor pulling an all-nighter at the hospital. Phoebe, usually a ball of energy, was yawning like crazy after a whole day without sleep. When Phoebe lost count of her yawns, Theodore caught on.

He didn't say a word, just shot a text to Lawton.

Not long after, Lawton showed up outside the ICU. He stood in front of Theodore and gave a nod to the three of them.

Theodore said, "Take Phoebe home to crash."

Phoebe was taken aback and quickly waved her hand. "Nah, I'm good. Not tired. I'll stick around."

"Come on." Theodore's tone was firm. "Dad's in the ICU. If we all burn out, who's gonna take care of him when he gets out?"

Phoebe didn't want to leave but knew Theodore had a point. She looked at Taylor and said, "Taylor, why don't you go home and rest? I'll stay here with Theodore."

Taylor looked worn out. She shook her head. "I'm staying. Not going anywhere till he's out."

In the end, Phoebe left with Lawton. It was drizzling outside, and the gloomy weather made everyone feel even more down.

As soon as Phoebe got in the car, Lawton handed her something from the front seat. She looked closely and saw it was a cup of bubble tea.

Phoebe stared blankly at the bubble tea that had arrived a day late, feeling a bit out of it.
