Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179 Nora, Follow Me

Lachlan's face was still as he watched Nora move closer to Claudia. He hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't stop her. Stopping Nora from interacting with Claudia now would only make things worse.

"Nora, sweetie! Do you miss mommy?" Claudia held out her arms and asked.

Suddenly, a flower pot came hurtling down from above! Judging by its speed and trajectory, it was likely to hit Nora.

Lachlan's expression changed immediately as he moved to protect his daughter. But surprisingly, Claudia reacted even faster than Lachlan did. She rushed towards Nora and held the child in her arms for protection.

With a whooshing sound, the flower pot narrowly missed hitting Claudia on the head. She closed her eyes at that moment, struggling internally before finally gritting her teeth and not moving. She knew it was just an empty flower pot!

If it had hit her head she might have suffered some cuts or bruises at worst or maybe even mild concussion but there would be no life-threatening danger.

Watching what happened next made Lachlan's pupils shrink slightly: just before the flowerpot could hit Claudia on the head, he struck out with his hand and smashed it into pieces that rained down all over both of them.

But fortunately there were no injuries beyond minor cuts from broken pottery shards scattered all over their clothes!

"Nora! Are you okay?" Claudia blinked rapidly then turned to look at Nora anxiously while holding onto her tightly in case something else fell down unexpectedly again.

The little girl looked up with tears in her big eyes as she shooked her head slowly while staring at the broken pieces of pottery scattered around them, "Nora is fine... Mommy are you hurt?"

"Good! As long as you're okay then mommy can handle anything!" replied Claudia hugging Nora tightly like any loving mother would do when they feel their child is threatened or scared.

Nora let out a wail and started to cry. She was so moved that she was sobbing uncontrollably.

The shadow that Claudia had left on her last time seemed to have vanished in an instant.

At this point Lachlan furrowed his brow deeply without realizing that someone had secretly recorded this "heartwarming scene".

In the photo taken later on, Lachlan stood beside them watching silently while Claudia hugged little Nora close like they were mother-and-daughter reunited after years apart...

"Lachlan! I knew you couldn't bear to see me get hurt!"

"I knew it, you still have me in your heart..."

At this moment, Claudia let go of Nora and stood up with a moved expression.

"You're thinking too much."

"Nora, come with me!"

Lachlan shook his head expressionlessly and picked up Nora in the next second, walking away in big strides! He didn't know what tricks Claudia was playing or whether she was really blocking the flowerpot for Nora or acting with someone else's cooperation. In his heart, Lachlan couldn't believe that a selfish woman like her could suddenly become so great.

But he didn't matter. Nora had already been moved by Claudia and recognized her as her mother again. This was something Lachlan didn't want to see! He couldn't let Nora have any more contact with Claudia!

"Lachlan, how can you bear it?" Behind him came Claudia's unwilling and sad cry.

"Mom... wahhh... mom!"

"Dad, can I stay with mom for a while longer? Dad..."

Nora cried out reluctantly while being held by Lachlan. She even stretched out her little hand towards Claudia's direction.
