"I'm alright." Jay was in a slightly better mood after hearing Angeline’s voice.
Jenson continued, "Daddy, you can get away with lying to Mommy today, but what about tomorrow?"
"I'll be going back to Cloud City tomorrow," said Jay.
Jenson was anxious. "How are you going back when you're this sick?"
Jay smiled and said, "I'll be all better by tomorrow."
However, Jay had high fever again in the evening. His coughs became more frequent, and he would cough dozens of times continuously. It was starting to affect Baby Robbie's frame of mind, who was outside waiting on him.
Baby Robbie crept in to pour a glass of water for Jay.
When Jay saw Baby Robbie’s half-smiling expression o n his enchanting face, he stretched his hand out to poke his nose. "Sorry, I’m making you worried."
Baby Robbie said, "There’s nothing to be sorry about, Daddy. It's all my fault. Daddy's body has become so thin from always worrying about me."
Jay sat up, wanting to comfort Baby Robbie.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to speak, his lungs
were affected. He started coughing as if the world was turned upside down.
Angeline suddenly called, and when Baby Robbie saw the unknown phone number, he did not think twice before connecting the call.
"Hello, Robbie speaking."
At the other end of the phone, Angeline was slightly stunned.
Jenson had picked up the phone during the day, and Baby Robbie picked it up when she called at night. Why was Jay not answering her calls?
"Baby Robbie, it's Mommy.”
Jay was giving Baby Robbie a meaningful look, and he immediately understood. He smiled and said," Mommy, I miss you so much. Where are you now?
How are you doing? They said you got really sick and Baby Robbie was so worried about you..."
Baby Robbie seemed to be his usual chatterbox self and took control of the conversation. He barely gave Angeline a chance to respond.
Angeline quietly listened to the child's voice. At first, she thought that Baby Robbie was being his usual self and it was normal for her to be unable to intervene.
