Chapter 376
They arrived at the Blackwell family’s villa.
Hackett got out of the car first and led Rose in.
Rose knew that Hackett had his house. Her brother had his house, and so did Trevon. Presumably, Edward also had his own house. It was normal for children from families like theirs to have their own house.
Sherri didn’t live in Hackett’s house but the Blackwell family’s villa. That was surprising. The in-laws had always been the natural enemies of their daughters-in-law. There was rarely any harmonious situation if they lived under the same roof. Since ancient times, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had always been difficult to get along with. There were always things that they disliked about each other under the same roof.
If it weren’t for the fact that the in-laws treated the daughter-in-law like their daughter, liked her, and doted on her, no daughter-in-law would prefer to live with her in-laws. She would instead live alone. That was what Rose thought.
Sherri was an example. She liked living with her in-laws,
Edward followed behind and strolled into the house. There were already three people watching his niece upstairs. Including Dr. Roberts and Hackett, there were five people. It would be redundant for him to go up again. He sat down on the sofa. The other sofa was already occupied by Richard and Nathan. They were calmly drinking coffee..
He wanted to smoke, but just as he took out the cigarette, he seemed to have thought of something and put it back. He glanced at the backs of the two people walking up the stairs. One wore pajamas and slippers, while the other wore a dark green dress. The hem of her dress fluttered, natural and elegant when she walked.
Hackett opened the door. When Sherri saw Rose, she smiled and looked at Rose apologetically. “Rose, you’re here. I’m sorry to get you here so late at night.”
Rose shook her head. She had a carefree personality but was not good at socializing with the elders. She only greeted them politely, “Hello, everyone.”
Juana and Joy were both friendly people. They smiled and replied, “Hello”
They took a few steps back consciously. At this moment, Joy and Juana’s minds were all on Ruby.
Rose put her bag aside and bent down to check on Ruby. She lifted Ruby’s clothes to check on her. Ruby was already asleep at this moment, but her body was warm.
Rose asked a few questions. Sherri was calm like her. This kind of fever was very common. She also knew why Sherri did not send her daughter to the hospital, but they could not stop the grandmothers from being anxious.
Sherri had said that her daughter was fine when she had a fever. After all, she was also a doctor. She knew the general situation, but Juana said it was different. She said Sherri was an obstetrician-gynecologist, not a pediatrician.
After much discussion, they could only bring Rose over.
Rose checked again. “Ruby’s condition is basically an infant rash. She will have a fever for a few more days. When her fever subsides, subtle rashes will appear on her back and chest. The rashes will automatically subside in a few days. It’s just that the girl will feel uncomfortable these two days.”
When Sherri saw that her daughter had a recurring fever, she thought this was the reason. However, the credibility of her words now was not high. At least, Juana did not believe her.
Hackett felt sorry for his daughter when he heard it would take a few days for her fever to subside. “Do we have some other way to cure her?”
Rose shook her head. Hackett looked at his daughter lying on the bed. His heart ached so much that he wanted to suffer the fever for her.
Perhaps all parents had such thoughts. Every time their child was sick, they hoped it would be better if they could suffer the pain for their kids. If they could replace them, the kids would not have to suffer.
Now that Rose had said it, the two grandmothers believed her. After all, she was a professional. However, when they thought the child would have to suffer from recurrent fever, they felt sorry for her.
Ruby slept with Joy. At this moment, the two grandmothers unanimously decided that Joy would speak first. “Sherri, Ruby will still sleep with your mother at night. You have to go to work tomorrow. Hackett and your father are at home. Leave a man at home. You can go to work in peace. Your mother and I will watch over Ruby at night.”
They were not asking. Instead, it was a suggestion. Sherri knew their mothers were trying to help and nodded in
agreement.
Rose took the fever medicine from her bag, a thermometer, and fever-cooling patches. “Keep these, I brought them over.”
Sherri asked, “Why do you have so many children’s medicines and a complete set of them at home?”
“Aren’t you and Natalie pregnant’ I was afraid that you might need them, so I prepared some.
This was Sherri’s first time seeing Rose’s attentiveness and care for her friends. She had brought the children’s medicine home just because they had children. It didn’t matter if it was helpful or not.
Sherri smiled and took out her phone to take a look. It was already midnight. “Moms, I’ll send Rose downstairs first.”
Juana expressed her gratitude again “Thank you, Dr. Roberts. It’s already so late, but we still make you come here at this hour”
It’s fine. Other than being a doctor, I’m Sherri’s friend.
Juana suggested. “Sherri, Hackett still has to look after you later. Get your brother to send Dr. Roberts back. Be careful on the way
Sherri wanted to say that Hackett didn’t need to take care of her, but when she saw her mother winking, she seemed to understand what she meant. How could Shern, who had always liked to gossip, not catch the main point? “Oh, okay. Rose, I’ll get my brother to send you back. My legs have been a little sore recently. Hackett used to massage for me at night.
After saying that, he even elbowed Harkett, who was standing beside her. Hackett, who came back to his senses, retracted his gaze from his daughter and said. “Yes, yes. Let Edward drive you back. I promise he will send you home safely.”
Rose was tidying up her bag and did not notice the expression exchange between the mother and daughter. I’m fine with. anything. You’re more important now, so you have the final say
“Love you. I’ll walk you to the gate.
“It’s alright. Just stay here,” refused Rose.
“Wait for me to return. Ill walk Rose to the gate,” said Hackett.
Sherri thought. It will only take you a few minutes to go downstairs and come up. Why do you make it sound like we would part for days?”
Edward was still sitting on the sofa. When he heard the commotion upstairs, he looked up at the stairs and saw Hackett and Rose coming down. The two of them were chatting and laughing side by side. “I owe you a favor. Do you want the consultation fee?”
“Come on, listen to yourself. How sincere do you sound?”
“Alright, I don’t really want to give it to you. Your brother cheated a lot of money from me.”
Edward did not stand up. He looked away after a while.
“Edward, our mother asked you to send Rose back. I still have to give Sherri a massage later” Hackett repeated Juana’s
Instructions.
The meaning of his words was simple and straightforward. He spoke out his excuses, blocking Edward’s words of rejection.
Hearing this, Edward seemed to understand a little. He remembered Frank’s words and wanted to reject him tactfully. Not far away, Richard’s voice came. “Drive slowly on the road. Your mother and I will stay here tonight. Are you going home or staying here later?”
Seeing that Ruby was fine, Nathan and Richard went upstairs together. Hackett had already arranged rooms for the two elders in the house.
Miss Roberts would be embarrassed if he refused again. “Got it. I’m going home,’ replied Edward.
“Let’s go, Miss Roberts. After saying that, he strode out, and Rose followed.
Walking to the car, she didn’t know if she should open the door to the back seat or the front passenger seat. She was a little conflicted. After being stunned for a while, she heard Edward’s gentle voice. “If you’re used to sitting in the front passenger seat, you can sit in the front. I don’t mind.”
“It’s fine. I’ll just sit in the back seat. Rose shook her head and was about to open the back seat door.
Edward did not object. After all, Frank’s words flashed through his mind in a second.
The car drove slowly to the Roberts family. It was especially quiet in the car. It was so quiet that Rose was about to fall asleep. She had to find something to talk about to stay awake. It was early in the morning, so it was really easy to fall asleep.
“Sherri is quite happily married to Hackett. Her relationship with her in-laws is quite good. This is what makes me envious and want to fall I love”
Rose finally found a topic to talk about.
Edward could tell that she was uncomfortable. “Sherri has a lively personality. She is not difficult to get along with and carefree. She has a similar personality as you.”
“You know my personality? I don’t think we’ve met many times,”
Rose, sitting behind, stared at the back of Edward’s head and asked.
Edward said. “I’ve only seen you a few times. You post a lot online. As long as you’re happy, you’ll upload it. It’s hard not to
know
“Moreover, it’s my intuition. In the end, he found a more suitable word.
“You’re right. My personality is similar to Sherri’s, and my preferences are similar. Even Natalie said that we should be sisters… I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to mention it.”
Rose had forgotten to think twice before speaking.
