Harley was grumbling under his breath as Charlie entered.
He quickly regained his normal posture and asked.
"How's it going?"
Charlie nodded solemnly and replied, "According to the clues provided by President Granger, we found the man. However, he is no longer in Rosaville City, but in Floral City. Shall we send someone to bring him back?"
"There's no need to!" Amos said, "Harley can take it from here!"
Amos thought that he had offered enough help regarding the matter between Harley and Thea.
Harley nodded and agreed, "Sure! Give me the address!"
He no longer thought about the pancakes. He quickly got up and left.
After he left, Eudora said, "Let's visit Thea at the hospital!"
"I don't think we need to do that today. They should be leaving the hospital today!"
Eudora was stunned and asked, "Are you saying that Harley will go to Floral City with Thea? Isn't that guy his love rival?"
Amos burst into laughter and chuckled, "You don't understand men!"
Only timid and weak-willed men would choose to run away. They wouldn't want to confront their love rival.
Harley wasn't frightened of anything. Furthermore, he was also head over heels in love with Thea. He'd honor her decisions!
In fact, this was for the best. The two of them would bear all the responsibilities together!
After experiencing this together, they would finally realize how precious their relationship was!
On the way back to the hospital, Harley kept his head buried in the address on his phone. In just 20 minutes, he had memorized the address.
In fact, was he really that brave and confident?
Not a chance!
He wasn't confident! He just wanted Thea to be with him!
Yet, he knew how much Thea loved Cutie Pie. She wouldn't be able to bear seeing him in a bit of danger or pain!
Therefore, he had to do this.
This was the only way.
After sitting in the car for a long time, Harley headed upstairs.
As soon as he entered the corridor, he saw Thea sitting on a bench crying! Harley panicked and lost all trace of his thoughts.
He rushed towards her and looked at her anxiously.
"What's wrong? Where is Cutie Pie?"
"His situation worsened suddenly. Fortunately, the doctor realized in time and they are treating him now..."
Thea's face was full of tears as she sobbed, "Harley, if something happens to Cutie Pie, what should I do? I can't stand it. I really can't!"
Harley could only hold her tightly. He comforted her repeatedly.
"It'll be fine, don't worry. He'll be fine!"
A moment later, someone finally opened the door of the ward. The nurse came out and said, "Fortunately, it's nothing serious. It was just a seizure! He's fine now."
Thea breathed a sigh of relief, tears streaming down her face.
"Thank you, thank you." "Don't thank us. This is what we should do!" The nurse assured them, "However, his condition will only get worse. You should decide as soon as possible between a bone marrow transplant or to use the blood from the umbilical cord..."
Thea nodded, "Okay, we will decide as soon as possible!"
As soon as the nurse left, Thea went in silently and packed her things. Upon noticing her determined figure, Harley knew that she had made up her mind.
In the end, he let out a deep breath.
"Thea, I've found the person. He's in Floral City. This is the address. I'll help you bring him back. Do you believe me?"
If he could, he really wanted to silence that man behind her back once and for all. However, it was impossible!
He was Cutie Pie's biological father. For Cutie Pie's sake, he couldn't harm him!
Taking a deep breath, Harley let out a bitter laugh. This was probably karma!
In the past, he was never attached to any woman. Now, he was willing to give up his principles and dignity for Thea.
He even went as far as to accompany his wife to find her old lover just so they could give birth to a baby. How could such an absurd thing happen to him?
Harley wanted to laugh, but his eyes reddened at the thought of this.
When they arrived at Floral City, it was already a little over nine o'clock at night. Seeing that it was getting late, Harley planned to take Thea to the hotel to settle down. However, Thea wanted to find
the man first.
Harley had no choice but to continue driving.
When they arrived at the address, they saw that they had arrived at a club. After leaving Rosaville City, the man still worked at a club in Floral City.
Old habits really die hard!
At the thought of how Thea was going to bear another man's child for the second time, Harley felt the anger in his chest rising again.
Amidst his thoughts, Thea had already gotten out of the car.
She was in such a rush that her legs gave way as soon as she got out of the car. She almost fell to the ground.
Harley frowned and grabbed her quickly. He sighed, "Let's eat something first!" Thea was in poor health and she hadn't eaten anything today.
He was afraid that her health would worsen if she was so anxious.
Thea listened to him this time. She just wanted everything to go smoothly. After they finished eating quickly, they walked towards the club.
When they arrived at the entrance, Harley couldn't help but grab Thea's hand, holding her back once again.
"Do you really have to?"
