Chapter 50 Flora Gets Pushed Down

After Ralph took off, Sam blinked up at her. "Mommy, that guy who just left, he likes you, right? He couldn't stop staring at you."

Flora overheard and gasped, her eyes going wide.

Tiffany was caught off guard by Sam's observation and his teasing. But, thinking back, Ralph's behavior was pretty obvious.

She chuckled, reached out, and pinched Sam's cheek. "You're one sharp kid."

Sam held his cheeks, his eyes turning into little crescents, and grinned at Tiffany. "Mommy, that guy is really handsome too."

Sam knew everyone adored his mommy! And since Leon wasn't treating her right, why not find a new husband?

Tiffany was taken aback by Sam's compliment about Ralph, but she still clarified, "Sam, Mommy and he are just friends."

Sam tilted his head, thinking. He got that Tiffany wasn't into Ralph, so maybe he should still try to set her up with Leon.

Seeing Tiffany rub her shoulders, the kids knew she was tired. They led her to the living room, massaging her legs and shoulders, letting her relax for a bit.

Over at the Cooper Mansion, Barry was in bed, determined to fake being sick to keep Leon home and away from Bronte. He was going all out with this plan!

He told Damon he felt unwell, and when Damon stepped out, Barry heated the thermometer and even used a hot towel on his forehead.

Damon had just gone downstairs to call Leon. Half an hour later, Barry heard quick footsteps outside and knew Leon was back.

Barry started coughing, and the bedroom door flew open. Leon rushed in, looking worried, and Barry weakly leaned back against the bed. "Daddy, why are you back?" Leon sat on the bed's edge, touching Barry's slightly warm forehead, looking concerned. "Barry, Damon said you weren't feeling well. Why do you have a fever?" "Daddy... I missed you." Barry's eyes welled up, and he clutched Leon's sleeve, looking pitiful.
