Chapter 359

Snow was a doctor herself, with pretty good skills at that. So why the heck couldn’t she figure out how to get her son’s health back on track? It was really baffling. Every time I looked into Hiram’s eager eyes, my heart ached. I was on the verge of caving in.

But then I remembered my promise to Snow, and I dropped the idea like a hot potato. I couldn’t just take Hiram out willy-nilly. If something happened, it’d all be on my head.

I didn’t want my good intentions to backfire.

“Maybe next time, kiddo. Once your mom gives the green light, we’ll go out. Deal?” I said gently.

“No!” Hiram suddenly threw a fit, and tears welled up in his eyes. “You’re all liars! I don’t want to talk to you anymore!”

With that, he ran back to his room and slammed the door, leaving me standing there, totally thrown and worried.

After what felt like forever, Snow finally came home. She looked like she’d been crying.

Thanks for watching Hiram. We’ll continue the treatment in three days.” She said in a hoarse voice.

“Sure thing.” I didn’t ask any questions. My head was spinning anyway.

I exchanged a few words with her before bolting out of there and driving back to my apartment.

To my surprise, Russel was waiting for me right at my doorstep.

Sensing a stranger, Daisy barked from inside the house.

“When did you get a dog?” Russel asked.

“That’s none of your business. How did you know I was here?” I was in a bad mood, and it showed in my voice.
