Chapter 916 Little Baby
Waylon thought for a while and remembered what happened.
The needle case must have dropped out of his pocket when he crouched down to pick up Doris’ items that were
scattered on the ground.
He did not mind losing the needles, but he could not afford to lose the needle case.
Emmeline had made the needle case. She made one for him, one for Robert, and one for herself.
Waylon quickly replied, “It’s mine.”
“I’m so sorry I can’t deliver it to you. I’m still at the hospital taking care of my baby. Can you come over here and
get it?”
Waylon had no choice but to go to the hospital.

“Is your baby feeling better?” Waylon asked as a polite gesture.
“He’s feeling better. His fever is gone now,” Doris said as she handed the needle case to Waylon. “There’s
something else I wanted to tell you.”
Waylon nodded slightly. “Oh. What is it?”
“I haven’t asked my neighbor about the car, so I don’t know how much I should pay you. Can you wait for a few
more days?” Doris said apologetically.xo.com fast update
“…Don’t worry about it,” Waylon said impassively.
“If you’ve already gotten it fixed, you can send me the bill,” Doris said sincerely. “I’ll pay you whatever it costs.”
“I haven’t gotten it fixed yet,” Waylon replied.
“I see. I’ll ask my neighbor when I see him then. I’m so sorry for the delay,” Doris said.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave.” Waylon lifted the needle case to show her. “Thanks for this.”
“You’re welcome. I was only doing the right thing,” Doris said.
Waylon was about to leave the room when the baby on the bed began to cry.
Doris immediately went over to coax him, and Waylon instinctively turned his head around.
He noticed that the IV drip bag was empty.
“That needs replacing,” he said to Doris while walking over to pinch the drip line.
Doris rang the bell while coaxing the baby, but there was no sound.
She pressed the button again.
“I think it’s broken,” Waylon said.
“Ah! Let me go and get the nurse!” Doris said and frantically ran out.
Waylon was left in the room staring at the wailing baby.

“Hey, hey,” he called, but the baby ignored him.
Waylon tried to remember how he stopped Sun, Moon, and Star from crying when they were babies.
Ah, I’ve got it.
He gently poked the baby’s cheek with a finger while he sucked his lips.
The baby stopped crying when he heard those sounds. He stared at Waylon with his big eyes.
Waylon suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. Somehow, the baby’s innocent eyes woke up something within him.
He shuddered and quickly stood up. The sensation within his chest was unfamiliar to him.
In the meantime, Doris returned to the room with the nurse.
The nurse replaced the drip bag and left.
Waylon was going to leave. While Doris saw him out, her phone began to ring.
Waylon was already a few steps out of the room. He heard Doris exclaim, “Is my girl okay? Okay, I’ll go home now!”
Somehow, that made Waylon stop in his tracks.
Doris ran out of the room frantically. “I’m sorry, Mr. Adelmar. Can I trouble you with one more thing?”
“Sure,” Waylon said, already expecting what she was going to ask of him.
