Half an hour later, at First Hospital.
In the VIP room, Theo lay in a hospital bed, his cheeks flushed with fever. Only his right hand peeked out from under the covers, connected to an IV drip. Will stood by, occasionally wiping Theo's sweat, concern etched on his face.
"Mr. McDaniel, Mrs. McDaniel. Your son has a high fever due to a cold. As long as it breaks by tomorrow and doesn't come back, there shouldn't be any major issues," the doctor said respectfully to Byron and Maeve. "We're seeing a lot of children getting sick this time of year, so it's important to keep them warm and encourage some light exercise."
Byron paused for a moment, choosing not to correct the doctor's misidentification.
"Thank you, doctor," Maeve replied gratefully. "I'll make sure to keep that in mind."
"Not at all," the doctor said before he and the nurse stepped out. Maeve turned to look at Theo, who was still sound asleep, her brows furrowed in worry.
"The doctor said it's not serious. You don't need to worry so much," Byron said gently. "Aren't you going to inform his mother?"
"I'll wait until he's feeling better. I don't want to worry her," Maeve replied, feeling drained and reluctant to think about revealing the truth to Byron.
Byron's gaze lingered on her as if he were probing for something.
The VIP room usually had dedicated staff, so Maeve didn't have to worry much about Theo's care. She was just concerned he might wake up feeling uncomfortable, so she often got up from the other bed to check on him.
On her third trip, Byron placed a hand on her shoulder, his eyes serious. "Get some sleep. I'll keep an eye on him, okay?"
Reluctantly, Maeve lay back down under his intense gaze. "I'm just a little restless. Besides, the nurses are here, so he'll be fine. You should get some rest, too."
"Why are you restless?" Byron asked, lowering his head slightly, his handsome features shifting in the dim light. "You're making people misunderstand things." "Misunderstand what?"
"That this child is yours."

Will said sweetly. "The doctor came to check on Theo, and he's already feeling better. If he's fine for another half-day, we can take him home.
