Malcolm was indescribably satisfied as he let his wife carry him. He held back the urge to cough and said softly, "My wife was right to scold me. I didn't think it through tonight. As long as you can calm down, it doesn't matter if I accept punishments."
"How dare you joke around at this late hour?"
Lyra punched him angrily.
Malcolm frowned and took a deep breath.
Noticing the reaction, Lyra quickly asked, "What's wrong? Did I hurt you? Something wrong?"
"Chad! Hurry up and get the doctor. Malcolm needs to see a doctor!"
Malcolm took her hand, smiled and said, "I'm fine. I just need a kiss from you."
Lyra stared at him, but she was still worried and asked the doctor to examine him.
After examination, Malcolm suffered only minor cuts and bruises, nothing serious.
Knowing that he was all right, Lyra was completely relieved and left with him in a car.
She had been looking over her shoulder all night, and it was only then that she calmed down and fell asleep on Malcolm's shoulder.
"Bro..."
Chad, the driver, turned around and called out.
Malcolm immediately made a silent gesture.
His wife was tired all night, and wanted to have a good rest.
Seeing the concern in Malcolm's eyes, Chad just shrugged.
Sensing the warmth between the two, Chad tactfully raised the clapboard in the front and back seats, turned on the air conditioner, and adjusted the temperature in the car to a comfort degree.
They had the situation under control, but the lab turned upside down.
Molly woke up and cried because she didn't see Lyra. Anthony was shocked.
"Did you have a bad dream? I'm always here. Don't be afraid."
Molly looked around, but she didn't see Lyra. She cried even harder. "Where's Mommy? I want Mommy. Daddy and Mommy don't want me and brother anymore..."
Because Lyra disappeared a few days ago, the little girl was very insecure.
As long as she didn't see Lyra, she was scared out of her mind.
Spencer was woken up by the crying, sat up, looked at Anthony coldly, and asked, "Anthony, tell me, is something wrong again?"
Lyra had been sneaking out the door to make a phone call. He had noticed, and he was sure that something was wrong.
Anthony shook his head. "Don't think about it. They'll be back soon. It's only halfway through the night. Why don't you get some sleep? They'll be here when you wake up."
Spencer didn't buy it. "Don't kid me," he said. "If you don't tell me the truth, I'll go out and find them myself."
Molly agreed, "Right, Anthony, if you don't tell me, I'll go out with my brother."
In the face of these two clever interrogation, Anthony sighed helplessly.
"Anthony, just tell me the truth. Did something happen to Mommy and Daddy?"
Anthony couldn't resist the pressure and called Chad.
When the phone was picked up, Chad lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong? We're on our way back."
"Spencer and Momo are waking up again and asking for Mommy and Daddy. I can't get them to stop. You tell them."
He turned on the speaker.
Chad: "Spencer, Momo, you go to sleep like Anthony says, and when you wake up, you'll see Mommy and Daddy."
