Chapter 558: Mum, Don’t Leave
“Mr. Mo, could you please give me another chance? I promise I’ll take better care of your child,” Wang Juan said desperately.
She needed this job because she had two children who were still in school. If she were to be fired because of this incident, no other employers would want to employ her and she would be forced to join another industry and to do something else.
Mo Yixuan heaved a deep sigh and turned to look at Wang Juan. He looked reproachfully at her but the concern in his eyes outweighed his reproach.
“Forget it, mum. We can’t pin this all on Wang Juan since we failed to notice his condition ourselves. We should hire a pediatrician to check on Yuan Yuan on a weekly basis in the future,” Mo Yixuan said gravely.
There were two young children at home and children tend to have weaker immune systems, so they would fall sick once in a while.
——
He Xiyan froze in shock when she received Wu Xiaomin’s call and she almost dropped her phone. She was extremely worried and anxious about Yuan Yuan.
“I’ll head over immediately,” she told Wu Xiaomin. Then, she picked up her bag and went to get her car from the castle’s parking garage.
She normally drove very slowly but she drove exceptionally quickly today and almost tailgated on several occasions but all these were of little concern to her.
She arrived at the hospital and finally her child, her Yuan Yuan who was currently on a drip.
“What’s wrong with Yuan Yuan?” He Xiyan asked as she took the child from Mo Yixuan’s arms. She looked at her child, her eyes full of worry and concern, and saw that he looked extremely weak. His lips were pouted and his eyelids were swollen while traces of tears could be seen from the corners of his eyes. She didn’t know how long he had been crying for.
He was still on an IV drip and there was a bandage around his forehead. Yuan Yuan was terrified of needles, so she knew that he must have cried extremely hard earlier.
Mo Yixuan looked at her and saw the same worry and concern reflected in her gaze.
They were his parents, so the moment something happened to their child, they would both be extremely anxious, especially since it was something as serious as pneumonia.
“It’s okay, Yan Yan. The doctor said that it was pneumonia and he’d be fine after spending a week at the hospital,” Mo Yixuan forced himself to smile reassuringly at his ex-wife despite his own worries since he didn’t want her to worry so much.
“Ma ma...” Yuan Yuan who had fallen asleep earlier woke up in pain once more. He curled up in her embrace and placed his head against her shoulder but this time, he didn’t cry.
He Xiyan stroked his face tenderly. She had not seen her precious son in almost ten days and had planned to bring Yuan Yuan over to the castle the day after tomorrow for a few days. She hadn’t expected to receive news that he had fallen ill.
“Yuan Yuan...” she called out hoarsely and gently patted his back. Her eyes gradually misted over with tears.
She had never seen Yuan Yuan so weak and frightened. Her precious baby had always been very strong and well-behaved.
Yuan Yuan grabbed her clothes tightly and placed his other hand on her neck. Then, he pouted as he said hoarsely, “Ma ma... don’t leave, Ma ma...”
Yuan Yuan expressed his thoughts with his simple vocabulary since, at that moment, he only found comfort and refuge in his mother’s embrace.
