Chapter 124

On the way to the hospital, Ryan sat quietly in Jacob's arms. But he stared at Arya, who was in Xavier's arms in the back seat. Tears fell down his face. His small shoulders were shrugging because of crying. Jacob hadn't comforted children before, so he didn't know what to do. He could only wipe the tears with a tissue. "Stop crying. Your crying made me anxious. Your mommy will be fine." Xavier didn't seem to hear it. Now he only cared about Arya. Her face was pale and she looked lifeless. Looked like she was on the verge of dying. Unconsciously, Xavier exerted more strength, afraid that Arya would disappear from his world.

When the car arrived at the hospital, Arya was sent to the emergency room. Xavier sat on the chair in the corridor and lit a cigarette. The smoke made others unable to see his expression at the moment. After a long time, Xavier looked up and asked Jacob to put Ryan down. "Go and find out who itis."

He guessed that it might be Harriet. If it was true, he would not let her go again.

He had forgiven Harriet many times, but this time he could no longer ignore it.

Jacob said, "Yes."

He glanced at Ryan and turned to leave.

Ryan stood there. His clothes were messy and his long eyelashes were wet. His eyes were red as he stared uneasily at the door of the operating room.

Xavier dropped his cigarette butt and said to Ryan, "Come here."

Ryan hesitated for a moment and then walked to Xavier. Xavier looked at Ryan and raised his hand to wipe away the dust and tears on Ryan's face.

Ryan blinked his red eyes and scratched his fingers. His voice was hoarse, "Will my mommy leave me?"

As Ryan spoke, his tears fell again. He was afraid that he would lose the hard-won affection between family members.

Xavier's hand trembled slightly. He wiped the tears off Ryan's face and said, "No."

At this moment, the door of the operating room was pushed open, and then Arya was pushed out. Ryan ran to the door and grabbed Arya's hand. "Mommy!"
