Chapter 688 Life Mixed with Happiness

The family doctor arrived, and at Shawn's request, he brought a pediatrician along this time.

Teddy looked at the unfamiliar faces and started crying loudly, refusing to let the doctors touch him.

"Teddy, don't cry. I'll hold you while they check you, okay?" Cindy hugged Teddy, letting the doctors examine him.

By late morning, Patrick found some time and called Shawn. "Dad, how's Teddy doing?"

"Teddy's got a fever. The doctor said to use physical cooling methods and not to give him medicine yet, just keep him hydrated," Shawn said, clearly frustrated. "Seriously, just water? Can water fix everything? Teddy's been drinking so much water today that his little belly is all bloated."

Patrick rubbed his temples. "Follow the doctor's advice. Don't give him too much water at once."

Over the phone, Teddy's crying could still be heard. Shawn moved the phone closer to Teddy. "Teddy, it's your dad on the phone."

Patrick spoke gently, "Teddy, are you crying again?"

Teddy's crying paused, unsure where the voice was coming from.

Cindy teased Teddy with a smile, "Looking for your dad?"

Patrick said, "Take a nap, buddy. Dad will come home early to be with you."

Teddy, still unhappy, started crying again.

Patrick's break was over, and he headed back to the meeting room. On the way, Randall asked, "Uncle Patrick, how's Teddy?"

"Your grandpa said he has a slight fever," Patrick replied. "Let's get this meeting started."

At noon, Vera skipped lunch to find her professor and reschedule her classes. Typically, university professors keep the same pace across different classes, so Vera could attend the earlier session and still cover the same material.

"Professor, I'm Vera from your afternoon classes."

"I know, I know," the professor nodded. Vera was well-known at the school.
