Chapter 152 Hackett might have slept peaceffilly that night and had a very, very long dream.
In his dream, he returned to four years ago. Valeria told him that she was pregnant and took out the positive pregnancy test kit.
This time, he firmly believed it and accompanied Valeria to the hospital for a prenatal checkup.
He had just dreamed of accompanying Valeria to do an ultrasound when he suddenly woke up.
In his daze, he felt a small hand touching his face.
Hackett frowned slightly and slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Alex's little face looking at him like a curious baby. His little hand was still poking around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter seeing him open his eyes, Alex was obviously shocked. "Valeria, Hackett is awake!" Then, Hackett saw Valeria walking over with a serious expression. "You're finally awake? You had a fever in the middle of the night last night. You scared us to death. We wanted to send you to the hospital, but we couldn't wake you up. We could only lower your temperature physically." Only then did Hackett realize that there was an ice towel on his forehead. Was the little guy in front of him poking his face to see if his fever had subsided? He wanted to open his mouth to speak, but he realized that his throat was dry and hoarse. It was difficult for him to speak "You want swater, right?" Valeria looked at Alex. "Alex, can you pour a glass of water for Hackett? He's sick now and can't move." "Okay!" Alex climbed out of bed and ran out of the bedroom with his short legs.
Valeria walked over and removed the ice towel from Hackett's forehead. She touched his forehead and sighed in relief. "Fortunately, your body temperature has finally dropped a little Get up and take the fever medicine." As she spoke, she helped the man sit up with difficulty and lean against the head of the bed. Being taken care of like this, Hackett felt the depths of his heart soften as he glanced at Valeria.
At this moment, Alex walked into the bedroom with a glass of water. He said in a cute voice, "Valeria, the water is here." "Thank you, baby. You're such a good boy. Valeria took the glass of water and did not forget to praise Alex Hackett could not help but smile when he saw how sensible Alex was.
Last night, before he fell asleep, he felt very happy to see his wife and child sleeping in front of him. However, the scene now made him even happier. He was so happy that he wanted to freeze this moment at all costs, "Here, hurry up and take the fever medicine. If the temperature doesn't drop, we can only go to the hospital,* Valeria handed him the pills and water Hackett swallowed the pills in one go and drank more than half of the water.
Alex watched from the side and asked in a childish voice, "Valeria, will Hackett die if he gets sick?" 10:24 Wed, Nov 13 Chapter 152 The corner of Hackett's-mouth could not help but twitch. Was this brat hoping for him to die early! Valeria could not help but laugh. It's just a fever. How can he die Just like the last tyou went to the hospital for an IV drip, he won't die." "Oh, oh... That hurts. The IV drip hurts: Alex looked at Hackett Are you afraid?" The man smiled and stroked his head. "No." "Hackett, you're very brave. The last tI got an IV drip, the nurse's acupuncture was so painful that I cried." "You cried!" Hackett laughed.
"Yes!" Alex said seriously. "That nurse pricked my hand until it bled. It hurt so much." The corners of Hackett's mouth curled into a smile as he patiently listened to his son recount his experience in the hospital.
"Let Alex accompany you while I make ssoup. You probably don't have much of an appetite, but you should still have a few sips of soup." Valeria stood up and was about to leave. Hackett could not help but ask. "You don't have to go to law office today?" "It's my day off. With that, Valeria walked out of the bedroom.
Moreover, she had moved out of Starry Bay. If she went to the law office, she would be surrounded by Keith again. She really did not know how to face it and could escape for the tbeing Alex went to get his picture book and said, "Hackett, can I tell you a story?" "Yeah." Then, the kid started to tell a story using the picture book. Hackett did not know what Alex was saying, but he still listened attentively.
Hackett felt that he seemed to be addicted to this gentle place. With his woman and child accompanying him, he did not want to go anywhere else.
After an hour or so.
Valeria walked into the bedroom and called them to eat.
"Alex, go have breakfast. Hackett, how are you? Can you move? Do you wantto bring your food in for you?" Valeria was rarely so gentle.
This was because she felt that Hackett's fever had something to do with her. Last night, she and Alex snatched all the blankets away. Hackett almost did not cover himself with the blanket the entire night, so he caught a cold and had a fever Hackett was not used to her gentleness.
"I'll eat in the dining room." Hackett lifted the blanket on his body, got up, and walked out of the bedroom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHence, the three of them sat at the dining table and prepared to eat. The scene looked like a family of three. Valeria scooped a small bowl of soup for Alex. "Eat quickly." Then, she scooped a bowl of soup for the man and placed it in front of him. She said, "If you have an appetite, eat more. If you don't, eat less." 10:24 Wed, Nov 13 Chapter 152 Hackett narrowed his eyes and observed Valeria's expression.
Valeria felt uncomfortable being stared at. "What? Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?" %88% The man's face was serious. "I keep feeling that something is wrong. Why are you suddenly so gentle? What did you do to letdown?" This was because he felt that Valeria's gentleness was mixed with a hint of guilt.
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I suddenly becgentle? You're thinking too muchn Valeria lowered her head and drank soup. She did not want to talk to him anymore. Unexpectedly, Alex, who was sitting between them, said innocently, "Valeria said that Hackett is sick because we snatched blanket last night, so we have to be gentle to you." your
"Alex Sharp! You can't even shut your mouth when you eat!" Valeria picked up a piece of pancake and stuffed it into her son's mouth, glaring at him.
Alex saw that Valeria was angry and obediently lowered his head to drink soup. He did not dare to say anything else.
Hackett finally understood what was going on.
"Oh... So that's what happened. I was wondering why it was so cold last night. So it was you and your mother who snatched the blanket away." Hackett chuckled. He looked at the guilty mother and son in front of him and found them extremely cute.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. You were the one who lifted the blanket and hence caught a cold last night. Moreover, it's a little cramped for three people to share a blanket, Valeria said stubbornly. Hackett narrowed his eyes, I don't care. The fever is because of you two, so the two of you have to take care of me. I definitely won't be able to go to work today. I'll just rest here." Valeria was speechless. This damn man was acting shamelessly again.
Alex blinked his grape-like eyes. "But I'm a child. How can I take care of you? I need someone to take care oftoo." Hackett smiled at him. "You can pour water forto drink." Alex was dumbfounded.
