Chapter 427 Medicine
Steven and the kids soon arrived at the hospital.
Fortunately, Natalie had already changed into a new set of hospital gown.
Otherwise, she would be so embarrassed that she would want to dig a hole and hide in it if the children were to see her in a disheveled state.
“Are you okay, Daddy?” Franklin asked as he lay beside Samuel. It was rare to see him being so obedient. “I heard you barged into the cold storage just to save Mommy. I feel so proud of you as your son.”
“Yeah.” The man’s lips tilted upward into a smile as he glanced toward Natalie affectionately. “I’ll protect her for the rest of my life.”
The latter’s heart melted at his words.
She knew very well that he wasn’t just sweet talking and that he meant every word he said.
He would definitely keep his words.
“Daddy, Daddy!”
Sophia got onto the bed as well and shoved a bag that was almost as big as her in front of her father’s face.
“Uncle Steven said we can only visit you for half an hour. I was worried that you would get bored so I brought lots of things for you.”
The girl opened up the bag and took out her gifts while explaining what they were to her father.
“I prepared a little bunny plush for you so you can cuddle with it while you sleep. There are pencils and paper so if you ever get bored you can draw with them. Here’s a nightlight too. You can press on it once when going to the toilet, so you don’t have to worry about falling anymore. I also brought some strawberry candies for you to eat when you feel peckish.”
Even though the gifts Sophia brought were things only a five-year-old girl would like, they were still carefully picked out by her.
It was the thought that counted.
Samuel reached out and patted the girl’s head.
“Thank you for preparing these for me, Sophia. I really like them.”
“Really?” Sophia’s eye shone with happiness. “I’m glad you like them, Daddy. Uncle Steven said that I brought too many things earlier.”
“He was talking nonsense.”
He glanced over at Steven in displeasure, giving him a look that seemed to say, ”You’re going to get it when I recover.”
