After Miya says that, Alex doesn’t let her go but holds her tighter.
“I’m not letting you out of my sight.”
Alex puts his face on Miya’s hair. He was flustered when he received the call from the servant. He stayed away from work and wanted to see her.
Miya is still struggling. She hears Alex and asks, “what happened?”
Alex says, “you fainted in the room. Fortunately, the servant didn’t feel right and went to your room to have a look. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.”
“I fainted?” Miya can’t remember what happened before.
After a while, the servant comes with chicken soup. She looks at Miya and says, “madam, you are weak now. You have to eat more.”
Miya looks at the servant. Her eyes are so evasive that she seems to have done something bad.
“I’m sorry, madam. I shouldn’t have left you.”
Miya says nothing, but the servant speaks first.
Miya looks at the servant in confusion. “What are you sorry for?”
The servant looks at Miya with shame and says, “I shouldn’t leave you at home alone. If something happens to you and your baby, I can’t afford to.”
Miya thinks of what Alex said just now to understand what the servant said. She was alone at home and fainted in her room because of hypoglycemia. Now the servant apologizes to her and thinks it’s wrong to leave her alone at home.
She feels that the servant’s confession is inexplicable.
Miya doesn’t know how to deal with the servant, so she just smiles.
“Mommy, I just went to school. Why are you in the hospital?”
Suddenly, Miya hears a girl’s voice at the door. Joey is back from school.
Behind Joey are her other children.
Miya sees them and is relieved. of course, if only they don’t complain about her.
Joey sighs as soon as she comes up to Miya. She tucks in Miya like an adult. Then she looks at Alex and seriously teaches him, “Dad, you always say that Mommy is your treasure, but you make Mommy faint at home. God, it’s serious, especially Mommy has a baby in her stomach. Can you stop indulging in your work? Can you accompany her more?”
Alex listens to his daughter and is surprised, but he has to admit that his daughter is right.
“I was wrong. I will take good care of your mommy in the future.”
“OK.” Joey pouts and the other children have come up to the bed.
Gogo holds Miya’s hand. She looks at Miya and asks, “Aunt Miya, are you feeling better now?”
Miya nods and says, “thank you, Gogo.”
Joey is unhappy to hear Miya’s soft voice. She just spoke for Miya, but Miya is not gentle with her. She cares more about Mommy than Gogo does!
