The brothers of the Lloyd family were all there, and it was as lively as a small party.
Everyone took turns to hug Molly and couldn't put her down.
Molly was not frightened by their behaviors at all. She laughed happily and seemed to be cheerful and hospitable.
Rudolph sat in the wheelchair, watching from a distance and seeing the sadness on the faces of Lyra and Malcolm.
Charles pushed his wheelchair slowly forward, and Rudolph whispered, "Malcolm, why is there only Momo? Where is Spencer?"
Lyra froze.
About Malcolm's S404 biochemical virus, because they were afraid Rudolph would be worried, the Whites kept the secret from him.
Rudolph didn't know that Malcolm had just returned from Frayton and was vomiting blood every day because of the virus.
Chad was the one who knew the inside story the most, and stopped laughing. His expression turned grim and he glanced at Malcolm's expression.
The Lloyd family knew about the virus but they didn't know that the virus factor might be passed on to the baby. After hearing the question from Rudolph, they looked at Lyra and Malcolm.
Malcolm's face looked calm, "The weather changes recently. Spencer catches a cold and is in the hospital for an infusion, so he didn't come back home."
Rudolph became very worried, "Today is also Spencer's first birthday. You let him receive the treatment alone in the hospital? Which hospital? I will send people to bring Spencer back immediately. We have elite medical staff in Lyre Spiti. Spencer has a cold. You can let him stay at home for the treatment, so why go to the hospital?"
In response to his question, Lyra lowered her eyes and pursed her red lips stiffly. Her expression was a little unnatural.
Malcolm was much calmer than her, and said concisely, "Anthony is in the hospital. He is the godfather of the babies and will take care of Spencer."
Lyra nodded in agreement, "Originally, Malcolm and I also wanted to stay in the hospital, but Momo was hungry, so we had to bring Momo back first."
In their explanations, they avoided the important fact and deliberately ignored Rudolph's question about why Spencer was in the hospital.
But since Malcolm had said it was a cold, and it had been arranged properly, it was natural for others not to say anything.
However, Rudolph's attention was on Malcolm's attitude just now.
He responded with a tone of detachment, as if he just coped with this question.
Rudolph sighed softly, "Malcolm, come with me. I have a few words to tell you alone."
Malcolm didn't answer.
Rudolph pushed his wheelchair and walked out of the villa, "Come with me."
Malcolm followed him silently and saw it was a little difficult for Rudolph to push the wheelchair by himself, so he had to take two steps forward and personally pushed his wheelchair out of the living room.
Lyra watched their back leaving for a long time, until Keira called her to turn her attention back.
"Lyra, I bought an ice cream cake. At dinner, Spencer should have finished the infusion, right? Would you like to bring Spencer back and let the two babies blow out candles and eat a little cake?"
"No, Spencer is weak. I guess he will be hospitalized for a few days and will not come back for the time being."
Abigail said, "Poor Spencer. He's actually sick and hospitalized on his birthday. Why don't we make a video call with Mr. Callahan from the hospital when we cut the cake at night? And let the two babies liven it up?"
Lyra still refused, "No need. Spencer has received the infusion for a day. He must be very tired, and it takes troubles to make a video call ..."
She said so, and the others had to give up.
Collin sat on the sofa and had his eyes on her.
Lyra grew up with him. If she wanted to lie and cover up, she couldn't manage it.
But what was she trying to hide?
Spencer ... was there something else going on?
Although he was suspicious, Collin dared not ask.
