Eric frowned. He could not stand seeing his son being so cowardly and timid.
However, he knew that he was not close to his son, so he could not bring himself to lecture Chance.
Who knew how Angie brought him up in the first place?
Eric suspected from the beginning that Angie had an ulterior motive in placing Chance by his side.
Since Angie had bad intentions, Eric was not willing to waste his effort in developing feelings for his son.
Thus, Eric did not care much about this kid.
Eric thought so, and the emotion in his eyes faded a little.
He stood up straight and looked at Yasmin.
"Take good care of the young master. If he gets sick again, you won’t be able to keep this job."
Yasmin could not even take care of a child, and Eric usually did not have much patience for his employees.
He would rather replace Yasmin with another nanny that could do the job well.
Yasmin paused and immediately assured him.
"Mr. Ferguson, don't worry. I'll take good care of the young master so that he won’t get sick again."
It was common for children to get sick.
The reason why Eric did not want Chance to get sick was not that he was worried about Chance, but because he did not want to waste his time and energy checking on Chance.
Any business or project would be more valuable than visiting a patient in the hospital.
Eric raised his foot and was about to leave.
Yasmin caught up to Eric after he took a few steps out.
She suddenly said, "Mr. Ferguson, he didn't get sick because of weak immunity..."
Eric held his phone and looked back at her impatiently.
"What do you want to say?"
He did not have the patience to listen to her parenting tips.
Yasmin took a deep breath and looked up at him.
"He shouldn't have gotten sick so suddenly. He just moved out of school into this apartment, so it could be that he wasn’t used to the environment. But I think there's another reason for it."
Eric looked at her silently with gloomy eyes.
Yasmin continues, "Perhaps he didn't receive enough fatherly love, so he wanted to attract your attention. Thus, he hurt himself to attract your care ;h.;VKY? attention. Mr. Ferguson, can you let him stay with you every day? He’ll gradually get better if he can see you every day."
Eric's eyes changed slightly.
He frowned. His face was dark.
Yasmin paused and said, "I also heard that the young master wasn't born with a speech disability. It might be a psychological disorder. If you let him stay by your side, it'll be good for his disability!"
Eric looked at Yasmin with a meaningful gaze. His expression was grim as he stared at her for a few seconds. He smiled playfully and asked, "Oh? Who did you hear this from?"
How could a newbie who had only been at work for two or three days hear so much?
Yasmin was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "The young master told me this secret. We've become good friends. As I said before, I'm good with children. I brought up my relatives' children.”
Eric looked at her coldly and warned her with an expressionless face.
"He's not your relative's child. Don't pry into my private affairs. Don’t you know
how to be a nanny? Do I need to teach you how to do your job?’
He said coldly.
Yasmin was stunned and immediately lowered her head apprehensively, looking obedient and aggrieved.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ferguson. I've overstepped my bounds."
Eric glanced at her coldly, turned around, and left.
After getting in the car, Eric took out his phone and called Nathaniel.
The call was connected.
Before Eric opened his mouth, Nathaniel got to speak first.
"Second Uncle, did you take good care of Yasmin? You can’t let her get bullied! She's from a small city, so she's not very tactful. You gotta take care of her on my behalf!" Eric frowned irritably.
"Do you know her background? Where is she from?"
"Of course, I know her. I like her! I will confess to her when I return from this business trip. Don't let it slip, and don't break us up!"
Nathaniel continued chattering, so Eric was annoyed and hung up the phone.
