Anthony, who was on the other end of the phone, noticed that her mood was not right, smiled gently and coaxed, "Rara, don't worry. Spencer and Momo are very good. Spencer has finished his injection and didn't cry. Momo seems to be a little bit timid, but I hold her and she's quiet."
Lyra looked at Momo's aggrieved expression, and her heart ached like a twinge. She endured it before saying, "Thanks."
"No problem."
Anthony laughed and his blue eyes looked fascinated.
These bright blue eyes only glowed with a shimmer when they saw Lyra.
Malcolm watched the interaction between the two.
The heart abruptly had a dull pain. He suppressed the sour feeling on his nose and silently went to the side to pack suitcases.
Lyra didn't pay much attention to Anthony at all and was preoccupied with the babies.
In the video, the doctor had prepared the syringe, hidden the needle and coaxed Momo.
But Momo was very resourceful and seemed to have guessed that she was going to be given a shot. Her nose was wrinkling as she stared at the doctor like he was a bad guy.
Lyra held back the pain, smiling and coaxing, "Momo baby is good. Mommy and daddy will be back tomorrow. The doctor uncle is very gentle. No pain."
Anthony pointed to Lyra in the screen and coaxed as well, "Momo, be good. Mommy is watching you. And your godfather will always be with you."
Momo seemed to really sense the presence of her mother. Because of the fever, her long eyelashes were gently trembling. Her little fat hand scratched the screen for a few times.
The doctor saw that her attention was diverted and took the opportunity to give her a shot in her little arm and push the medicine quickly.
Momo, who felt the pain as an afterthought, frowned and burst into tears.
But instead of wailing, it was a small and aggrieved sobbing.
The tears were falling, and the eyelashes were also wet with water droplets. She felt pitiful but looked cute.
"Momo, be good. Mommy's here."
Lyra saw the baby suffering and felt heartbroken. She had not been sad for a long time. In front of the camera, she held back the tears
On the other side of the video call, Anthony was also helping to coax the baby, "Your godfather helps you blow away the pain. No pain, no pain."
Momo cried for a while. Perhaps because she was sick and uncomfortable, she nuzzled into Anthony's arms and fell asleep in no time.
Anthony moved down his phone to show that Chad was holding Spencer.
Chad's arms and legs were a little clumsy. Spencer was asleep, and he was completely stiff. And he was afraid to move his body.
Being watched by Lyra, he smiled to make Lyra feel relieved.
Anthony moved back the camera to his face and comforted her gently, "Rara, don't be sad. Your babies are still small. Cold and fever is the most normal thing. They ate fever medicine, and got injections. I guess tomorrow they will be fine. If you are busy, there is no need to rush back. I will put down the work at hand, and dedicated to look after the babies. I ensure it won't happen again."
"Thank you, really. I'll treat you to dinner when we return home."
Anthony laughed: "Okay, I've been looking forward to this for a long time. I'll make a note of it. I'll be sure to find you when you get back to keep your promise."
Lyra nodded her head.
The video call was off.
The tears in her eyes could no longer be held back. She sat alone on the edge of the bed, felt sad, and shed tears.
Only she knew how exhausting it was to be pregnant.
When she was in European Swye, she had to find a way to get the super virus, and she had to fight to keep the babies. She had a hard time sleeping all night long. When she was only six and a half weeks pregnant with the babies, she had a strong pregnancy reaction.
Finally, she went back home from European Swye, and then the Lloyd family had a bunch of bad things happening. And she almost had a nervous breakdown for several times.
She suffered so much to give birth to two babies who were the faith she held on to during that time.
At this moment, looking at Momo's pitiful look because of the fever, her heart really hurt, as if she felt the pain and blamed herself.
She was silent and hurtful for a moment, and Malcolm sighed and crouched down to her feet, placing his hands tentatively on her knees in a apology.
