The Runaway Groom

Chapter 602

Irene was so worried that she cared for Tommy without slacking off at all, or even allowing her eyes to close once.

Everyone around her could see her working diligently but were unable to help. All they could do was to offer assistance wherever they could, even if it was just to relieve her a little.

Needing to stay awake, she said, "Mom, could you make me a coffee?"

It hurt Sheryl to watch, but since there was not much else she could do, she sighed inwardly and left to get that coffee.

Still, Irene perked up a little after having her coffee and told Sheryl, "It's late, Mom. You should go to sleep."

"Why don't you let me watch Tommy instead?" Sheryl asked.

"I'm worried if I'm not watching him," Irene replied.

Sheryl therefore had no choice but return to her room and sleep.
