“Let me help you to your room. After that, I’ll go to Ryker Group,” Emmeline said.
“…” Kendra was speechless.
Did my ankle only buy so little time? Well, I can’t help it if she’s an amazing doctor!
Kendra was trying to think of another way when Quincy began to cry.
Her eyes sparkled when she heard the loud cries.
“Ms. Louise, Quin is awake. Can you go upstairs and see if she’s okay?”
Emmeline knew it was urgent, so she quickly went upstairs.
Quincy could already walk and could climb out of the cot herself. Also, Kendra should not be putting pressure on her ankle for now.
When Emmeline entered the bedroom, she saw Quincy crying while waving her arms and legs.
Emmeline quickly picked her up and tried to coax her to calm down, but the baby did not stop crying.
She guessed that Quincy must be hungry, so she prepared some baby formula with her free hand.
Once the bottle was in Quincy’s mouth, she stopped crying. She hugged the bottle as she guzzled the milk. Emmeline could not help but smile when she saw the baby’s pink and plump face.
Babies are so cute.
Emmeline was reminded of the times when Sun, Moon, and Star were still babies.

Unfortunately, she did not manage to take care of Timothy when he was small.
After Quincy emptied the bottle, Emmeline brought her downstairs.
“Ms. Louise,” Kendra reclined on the sofa. “I can’t take care of Quincy for now. Will you stay at home and help me take care of her?”
Emmeline thought for a while and realized that Kendra also needed someone to take care of her.
She nodded and said, “Alright then, I’ll stay at home and not go to Ryker Group. I’ll talk to Abel after he returns.”
“Thank you, Ms. Louise.”
Kendra breathed a sigh of relief.
She did not sacrifice her ankle in vain. Quincy helped too!
Abel returned some time after dawn.
