Chapter 76 The Old Witch Pays a Visit As soon as Sadie entered her house, Coco fluttered over with its wings flapping. "Mommy, Mommy..." "Miss, you're back," Brenda immediately dropped the mop and rushed over, grabbing Sadie and tearfully assessing her, "My poor Miss, lettake a look, where are you hurt?" "Just minor injuries, nothing serious..." Sadie wanted to hug Brenda, but a sharp pain shot through her shoulder, causing her expression to contort. Coco landed on Sadie's head and gently rubbed its shiny green head against her hair.
"Good Coco," Sadie raised her right hand to pet its small head.
"Quick, have a seat," Brenda hurriedly assisted Sadie into sitting on the couch, "It's been several days already; why hasn't the injury healed?" "It's fine, the wound is already healing," beads of sweat the size of peas appeared on Sadie's forehead, "Brenda, these are the medicine and supplements the boss's doctor gave me. Keep them forwhile I go change my clothes." "Can you manage on your own? Lethelp you change," Brenda was still worried.
"No need, the school bus should be arriving at the entrance of the neighborhood soon. You go pick up the children," Sadie reminded her.

Using all her strength, Sadie changed into a set of hclothes and prepared to have a drink of water when the children crushing in, "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy..." "Ouch!" Sadie barely responded before the three little ones flew into her arms together, causing her wound to tear and throb with pain.
Sadie bit her lower lip, enduring the pain without making a sound.
"Be gentle, be gentle," Brenda quickly reminded, "Your mommy..." "It's fine, it's fine." Sadie quickly signaled Brenda with her eyes, indicating not to tell the children about her injury.
"Mommy, why are you sweating so much? Are you feeling unwell?" Noah observed keenly, furrowing his little brows as he sensed something was off with Sadie. "Noah, Mommy is fine..." Sadie gently stroked Noah's hair. "Are you sick, Mommy?" Nathan quickly brought a cup of water for Sadie, but in his haste, sof the water spilled. He immediately caught it with his hand, afraid it would drip on mommy, "Mommy, drink..." "Water." "Thank you, Nathan," Sadie was deeply moved.
"Mummy, letwipe your sweat." Mia tiptoed and used her sleeve to wipe the sweat from Sadie's forehead. Her adorable little face was filled with worry.
"Thank you, my babies. Have you been good while I was away?" "Yes!" The three kids answered in unison.
Sadie felt comforted in her heart. No matter how much hardship and stress she endured, as long as she saw her three children, she felt that life was worth it. "Alright, my babies, letrest a bit and go out with Brenda." Brenda found an excuse to distract the three kids. "I'm cooking fried chicken wings for you today. Would you like to help?" "Okay..." All three kids followed her out of the room.
Sadie locked the door and looked down. The clothes she had just changed were soaked with sweat again.
She had to go to the bathroom to wash her body and change into another outfit...

"Who is it?" Brenda shouted and went to open the door. "You? Why are you here again?" "Why can't I come?" it was Kathleen's voice.
Sadie hurriedly dressed, but because of her severe injury, even raising her hand was difficult, and her movements were extremely slow. "Madam, please leave, and don't cause trouble here..."
"Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me?" Kathleen arrogantly shouted, "Where's Sadie? Tell her to cout!" "Madam..." "Who are you? Why did you barge into my house and be so rude?"
Several kids rushed out from the kitchen and angrily questioned m Kathleen, who had an angry expression on her face.
