Summer pinched Rosie's little cheek and asked seriously, "Is there really nothing you're hiding from me?"
Rosie shook her head without hesitation. She wouldn't betray her dad anyway.
Summer pulled a wry face, "Are there really no secrets between you and daddy?"
Rosie hesitated for a moment. It was not good to lie, but she promised her father.
Looking at Rosie's conflicted expression, Summer knew there were secrets between them. She didn't want see Rosie so conflicted, so she touched her head and said, "Alright, forget about it."
When Leonardo came back to the ward, he discovered that Rosie had fallen asleep by the bed. Summer made a silent gesture with her index finger on her lips.
Leonardo walked over and lowered his voice, "Is she asleep?"
Summer nodded and whispered, "Carry her to the bed."
Leonardo glanced at Rosie and looked up.
"Tim is still here. I'll have him drive Rosie home."
As he spoke, he bent down to pick Rosie up. Summer reached out and nudged him, "You should drive her home after she woke up."
Rosie was very happy to come to the hospital today. If they drove her home when she was asleep, how disappointed she would be when she woke up?
Hearing that, Leonardo thought for a moment and carried Rosie onto the sofa. Then he found a thin blanket to cover her.
The sofa wasn't large, but it was wide enough for Rosie to sleep on.
Then Leonardo sat back on the bed. Summer
looked up at him, "Actually, it's fine if you put her on the bed."
Leonardo poured water for her, looking down. "Children are restless in sleep."
