His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2989

"Is Audrey alright? What did the doctor say?" Shelly's mother asked.

Shelly held the prescribed medicine in her hand and started preparing it for her daughter. "It's a bacterial infection. The doctor said to give her the medicine first and see how she responds. Mom, don't worry too much. The doctor mentioned that children under six months rely on their mother's antibodies, but now that she doesn't have them, she's a bit more susceptible to getting sick."

"Yes, I've heard about that. It might be because I took her out for a walk this afternoon, and she caught a chill," Shelly's mother replied.

"Mom, the doctor said we shouldn't overdress her when she has a fever. It hampers heat dissipation. From now on, we'll dress her according to how much we're wearing ourselves without adding too many layers." Shelly brought the medicine over to her daughter and fed it to her.

Although Audrey's fever had subsided, her cheeks still had a rosy tint. However, she looked energetic and had a constant smile on her face, no matter who she looked at.

"Shelly, once you're done giving her the medicine, you should go to sleep. Otherwise, you won't have the energy to go to work tomorrow," Shelly's mother said. "We owe Fergus a lot for tonight, so you should properly thank him another day."

"I'll treat him to a meal," Shelly replied.

"That'll do."

"Mom, today I realized how well-behaved Audrey is when she's sick. She didn't cry when taking her medicine or when getting her blood drawn. She's like a little angel." Shelly continued to feed her daughter the medicine, and Audrey obediently opened her mouth to drink it.

Shelly's heart melted.

"That's because she's still young and doesn't understand anything yet! Besides, children's medicine nowadays tastes sweet. It's nothing like when you were little and had to take bitter medicine. Every time you had to take medicine, I had to chase you around the house." Shelly's mother reminisced, her lips involuntarily curling upwards. "You didn't like taking medicine or getting injections. You cried a lot whenever you had to get a shot."

"Mom, I remember." Shelly laughed. "Audrey didn't cry when she had her blood drawn today. I think she might be different from me. Maybe she won't be afraid of needles when she grows up."

"That's possible. If she turns out like Hayden, that would be great. Successful people often have certain qualities. It's a blessing for our family to have a connection to him." Shelly's mother rarely mentioned Hayden, but she was very satisfied having him be the father of her grandchildren.

Occasionally, however, she would wonder what type of woman would marry a man like Hayden.
