Chapter 598 - Another Venomous Plan
Chapter 598: Another Venomous Plan
Because of what had happened at the kindergarten earlier, Amelia was still extremely upset with Karen for yelling at her and breaking her promise. So she didn’t want to go out to play with Karen at all.
Besides, she had already decided to stay by her parents’ side.
She immediately rejected in a puerile voice, “I’m not going out to play. I’m staying here with Mommy, Daddy, and Grandpa!”
Amelia pulled Lucas’s and Cheyenne’s fingers, refusing to let go as if she would be taken away as soon as she let go.
Cheyenne smiled and agreed with her. “Okay, as long as you don’t mind staying here and being bored, you can stay! I’ll ask someone to buy two storybooks for you to read later!”
Amelia immediately agreed with glistening eyes. “Great! That’s great!”
Seeing this, Karen was so enraged that she gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Amelia also slept in the hospital tonight.
Although the hospital bed was only 1.2 meters wide, Cheyenne was rather petite, and Amelia was a young child, so the two of them could share the same bed.
Karen was occupying the other bed.
As usual, Lucas slept on the long sofa by the window of the ward.
Tonight, Amelia and Cheyenne were sleeping soundly. Lucas had always been alert and a light sleeper who would wake up as soon as there was any movement.
Karen was the only one who was full of anxiety, and she kept thinking about how to bring Amelia out smoothly, but she couldn’t think of any good solutions. She was simply distraught.
After a long and painful night, Karen got up in the morning with dark circles under her eyes.
She had almost zero sleep last night.
The thought of the lack of time and the consequences that would occur if she failed to bring Amelia to Moses on time made her feel so flustered that she couldn’t sleep at all.
“Huh? Mom, did you not sleep well last night?” Cheyenne asked in startlement when she saw the haggardness of Karen’s face after she helped Amelia wash up.
“Ah, uh, it’s probably because there was a mosquito buzzing in my ear all night, so I was a little bit disturbed. It’s nothing!” Karen hurriedly said.
She was a little worried that Cheyenne would try getting her to undergo a full body checkup again if she said that she hadn’t slept well.
Now that she was pressed for time and hadn’t figured out a good solution to deal with Amelia, she obviously didn’t have any time for a medical checkup.
So no matter what, she had to force herself to perk up and look energized.
Lucas glanced at her, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, but he didn’t say anything.
After breakfast, Maddy came to William’s ward on time at 9:30 am to begin the daily acupuncture treatment for him.
As soon as she came today, she saw Amelia, who looked as pretty and cute as a doll, and her heart melted.
“Wow, Lucas, is she your daughter? She’s really beautiful! She looks just like a doll. How adorable!” Maddy squatted in front of Amelia with glistening eyes, appearing like a strange woman.
Women her age seemed to find adorable children irresistible. Even though it was the first time they met, she was especially doting on Amelia, seemingly suddenly developing a ‘motherly love’ for Amelia.
Amelia received a great shock when she saw the gaze in Maddy’s eyes, and she couldn’t help hiding behind Lucas. She merely popped half her head out to look at Maddy, the beautiful strange woman she was meeting for the first time.
Of course, her action immediately melted Maddy’s heart even more.
Lucas burst into laughter as he stroked Amelia’s head and introduced her. “Amelia, this is Daddy’s close friend. You can call her Aunt Maddy.”
“Hello, Aunt Maddy, my name is Amelia. Nice to meet you!”
When Amelia learned that the beautiful lady was her father’s good friend, she immediately felt that she definitely wasn’t a strange woman and extended her hand toward her politely to shake her hands like a little adult.
Maddy was overjoyed and immediately shook Amelia’s tender fingers as her large sassy eyes narrowed and her smile broadened.
But several doctors soon entered William’s ward one after another. Maddy remembered that her job was to continue with William’s treatment, so she coughed twice and stood up as her expression returned to normal.
She was an extremely professional doctor. Once it came to medical professionalism, she would instantly forget all unnecessary thoughts and become extremely serious.
The doctors who came in were naturally those who worked at the hospital, and they came to observe and learn from Maddy.
Since Maddy had promised to let them observe the acupuncture treatment the first time she had performed it on William, the doctors had already formed the habit of spontaneously gathering here whenever it was time for Maddy to give William treatment.
Of course, when Maddy was performing the acupuncture and massage, all of them would stay silent and observe quietly from the side. Only when she finished the treatment would they gather around her and ask her questions.
After all, Maddy was an internationally acclaimed medical expert, and there were not many opportunities to get her personal guidance.
Karen frowned.
She hated Maddy and the doctors who came in with her.
Every time she saw them, Karen felt that William would probably open his eyes at any moment under their treatment and reveal all the things she had done.
She wanted William to die immediately, so she absolutely hated them. But she couldn’t find a way to chase them away or disturb them.
Disturb?
All of a sudden, a thought appeared in Karen’s mind, causing her eyes to light up and euphoria to appear on her face.
Got it!
She thought of a good solution!
Karen looked at the group of people surrounding William, preparing to start the treatment for the day. She then quietly sneaked out of the ward.
She found an obscure corner with no one around and immediately called Moses. “I’ve thought of a way to take Amelia away, but I’ll need your help!”
She told Moses her plan, and he stayed silent for a moment before agreeing.
“Okay, I will send some people to help you, and I’ll rush over to meet you immediately. Just bring the kid to the hospital entrance. But this time, there is no room for error, you hear me?” Moses’s austere voice came from the other end.
Although Karen pursed her lips disdainfully, she nevertheless agreed, “Okay, I promise there will be no problem this time! Just wait for my good news!”
