Linda led the way while Peregrine trailed behind the trio, staring at Archie curiously.
This little thing can't be more than five or six years old, but he's already amazing. Sure enough, the apple never falls far from the tree!
While on their way to the warehouse, Archie asked glumly, “Aunt Madilyn, is my mommy very sick?”
At the sound of his voice, she stopped walking and lowered her gaze to glance at him, only to see him looking up at her with worry etched across his innocent, little face.
Patting his head, she sidestepped the question. “As long as you can help us, your mommy will be fine. There's nothing to worry about.”
He did not say anything. I can tell from Aunt Madilyn's expression that Mommy is seriously ill this time. I've got to do what I can to help!
His question made Madilyn even more anxious to the point where she could not stop herself from leaning over to pick Archie up in her arms and continue walking at a quicker pace.
Instantly understanding what Madilyn was thinking, Linda also sped up in front of them.
The four of them hurried all the way to the warehouse.
Referring to the prescription Peregrine gave him, Archie began reciting the locations of the medicinal herbs according to the list. “Second warehouse, third row, fifth compartment. First warehouse, topmost row, third compartment from the left. Fifth warehouse, last row, first compartment.”
He gave clear and precise locations for every medicinal herb needed.
Linda and Madilyn were in charge of searching for the medicinal herbs while Peregrine was responsible for weighing them out.
Thanks to their seamless teamwork, they succeeded in gathering all the medicinal herbs after one hour.
Then, Peregrine checked through each one of them again. After making sure there were no mistakes, he stroked Archie's hair and sighed in relief. “My child, you're so smart!”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Abandoned Wife (Lucian)
GREAT! Chapter 1970 was actually a repeat of Chapter 1770! And the same up to 1976! Now Ive missed 6 chapters and no idea what is happening! Plus all those sections that are badly typed then typed again and then again correctly……what a waste of “chapters”....
Wish there was more to the story, like how the triplets end up and if the twins are as smart as their older siblings. Beautiful story 😊...
