"Mom, I want mom... I want water. Woo-woo... Mom..." Henrick became unconscious due to fever, sobbing and wanting to see Eden.
Hearing that he wanted to drink water, Victor put him back on bed again.
He got up and poured him some water to drink. After drinking a cup of warm water, Henrick fell asleep in a daze, but he didn't sleep soundly and kept calling mom.
For a moment, Victor didn't know what to do. Would Ricky look for Eden all the time when he was ill?
"Ricky, I am dad. Let me take you to the hospital, okay?" Victor whispered in Ricky's ear.
Henrick forced himself to open his eyes again and glanced at him. This time, he saw Victor clearly and shook his head slightly, "I'm sleepy, and I want mom."
Hearing this, Victor felt a bit upset, "Ricky, be obedient. I can take care of you as well. Your mother's legs haven't recovered."
Henrick blinked his eyes and felt a burning pain in his throat. He had no strength at all.
"Dad, just give me some anti-fever medicine. There's no need to go to the hospital." After that, Henrick closed her eyes and fell asleep in a daze.
Seeing that he was almost unconscious, Victor didn't go get the anti-fever medicine. Instead, he picked him up and took him to the emergency room in the hospital.
When Eden woke up the next day, she didn't see Victor beside her.
She thought that Victor had gone to work.
Just as she was about to get out of bed, Victor pushed the door open with a haggard face in his pajamas.
Eden was stunned, "Victor, I thought you had gone to work."
Victor lay down beside her and held her in his arms, "Eden, you were right. Ricky is ill. I've just come back from the hospital. Sleep with me for a while."
Eden was anxious when she heard that, "Why didn't you wake me up last night? Does he get better now?"
Victor lay closely to her and whispered, "Eden, Ricky has recovered a lot. His fever is gone. Now mom is taking care of him. You are not in good health, so don't worry too much."
It turned out that taking care of a child was so tiring, especially when the child was sick. Last night, he understood it deeply. He took Ricky to the hospital and queued up to register alone. Ricky grabbed his clothes and wanted to see Eden. Looking at Ricky's helpless eyes, he felt very distressed for Eden, and he was guilty and sad, because Ricky hadn't really accepted him.
In the past, Eden had to be so tired when the three children were ill.
He just waited for Eden everyday, but Eden had a hard life.
"Honey, you must have had a hard time before, right?" Victor opened his eyes and looked at her with distress.
Eden said helplessly, "I told you that Ricky had never eaten like that before. I knew that he would fall ill, but you didn't listen to me. You suffered a lot last night, didn't you? The three children are all very clingy to me when they are ill."
"Mm! Ricky had been yelling to see you. Perhaps the nurses and doctors even regarded me as a human trader." Victor was a little wronged. Wasn't it said that sons liked fathers more?
In life, one would experience all kinds of things.
Eden couldn't be more helpless. She slept soundly last night.
"You should haven woken me up."
Victor said, "I could handle it on my own. As long as I think that you used to be so tired when they fell ill, my hearts aches for you." Victor kissed her on the forehead and held her tightly.
Mother's love was the greatest in the world.
Back then, for the sake of the safety of him and Graciella, Jaida would rather not see them forever.
As for Eden, although she would be insulted by people, she insisted on giving birth to the three children.
Last night, he learned a lot.
Hearing his touching and sincere words, Eden smiled faintly, reached out to stroke his haggard face and said, "Victor, your love is also great."
