Ex-Husband’s Regret: Barren Mommy Has Quadruplets

Chapter 23

Chapter 23 I Like Everything About You

The situation of Flora’s mother was a bit complicated. Although Aletta was well prepared, she was still busy until late with Little Mr. Hill’s medical records. In the evening, Aletta rubbed her tired eyes.

Meanwhile, Flora was nervous and worried. She asked Aletta, “Alta, what do you think? Are you sure?”

Aletta put down her hand. She looked at Flora and said with a smile, “Yes, I’m 70% sure about your mom’s operation.”

“Really?!” upon hearing this, Flora looked excited

The woman hugged Aletta, “Alta, I knew that there will definitely be no problem if you are here.”

The two children, Little Mr. Hill and Little Mrs. Hill looked at their godmother’s eyes with excitement. They comforted her thoughtfully, “Godmother, my mom is the best. Don’t worry. She will be fine.”

Flora nodded, and then remembered that they hadn’t had dinner yet. So, she said to the three of them, “Come on, I’ll invite you to dinner. Tonight, I am in a good mood. So, you all can eat whatever you want.”

“Is it okay? Then, I want to eat a seafood feast!” as soon as Lyla heard about it, she immediately raised her hand and said.

Flora readily agreed, “Then, what’s the problem? I know there is a restaurant which is particularly delicious. Let’s go!”

That night, those people had a full meal. Flora went back to the hospital first because she wanted to accompany her mother. Meanwhile, Aletta took her the kids home. As soon as they entered the door, Little Mr. Hill and Little Mrs. Hill slumped directly on the sofa.

“It’s so enjoyable to eat.” Lyla touched her chubby belly with a satisfied face.

Finally, she made up for not being able to feast on delicious food at her dad’s place.

Aletta couldn’t help but laugh as she watched her daughter regain her former vivacity, “Finally, she’s back to normal. She looks cuter like this. I was really scared two days ago.”

When Lyla heard her words, she got up from the sofa and asked cutely, “Didn’t you like the way I looked the past two days?”

“That’s not true,” Aletta sat down beside Lyla.

She stretched out her hands to pinch her daughter’s milky cheeks, “Lyla, you looked very quiet and cute the past two days. Although it’s different from now, I like it too.”

“That’s good,” after listening to her words, Lyla felt relieved.

Afterward, by using both hands and feet, she climbed onto Aletta’s lap. Lyla hugged her neck affectionately, and said seriously, “No matter what I become, you must always like me. Otherwise, I will definitely be very sad.”

The little girl in her arms had a serious look on her face. It made Aletta smile. Her brows and eyes became softer, “My Lyla is so cute. How could I not like you?”

After holding the baby and playing on the sofa for more than an hour, Aletta took her two little kids back to the room. When she was about to take a bath, her stomach ached.

Afterward, Aletta was going to bed at night. But she didn’t sleep well. In her dream, there was a fog where she couldn’t see her fingers. She then heard the cry of the child. First, she sobbed softly, and then she cried out of breathlessly. Her heart tightened unconsciously. Aletta then hurried forward.

Through the lingering fog, she finally saw the weeping child. The little girl who was looking pitiful turned out to be Lyla.

Aletta woke up suddenly, sat up directly from the bed, and quickly checked her two children beside her. However, those two children slept soundly. They did not cry heartbroken like in her dream. Fortunately, it’s just a dream.

Aletta didn’t think too much about it again. She then covered the two kids with quilts, laid down, and continued to sleep.

Late at night, at Hill Villa.

There was someone sitting on the bed every night and crying out of breath. Otto heard the movement and got up quickly.

“What’s wrong, Nina? Did you have a nightmare?” Otto asked worriedly while reaching out to pat his sister’s back to comfort her.

However, Nina didn’t respond. She was still sobbing and crying. Otto was silent for a while. Afterward, he asked again, “Is it because you left Mom?”

When they were having dinner today, he noticed his sister’s mood. She was always depressed. Then, Nina nodded. Nina missed her mom and wanted to be with her.

“Hey, don’t cry. Let’s find a chance later. We can discuss it with Lucas and the others. Afterward, we can switch back, okay?” Otto softly coaxed her younger sister.

Nina nodded again, but her tears still couldn’t stop. Her little face flushed because of crying and looked extremely terrible. She was writing in a notebook.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

[I want Dad.]

“Okay, don’t cry. I’ll take you to find Dad,” while comforting her younger sister, Otto took her hand and went to Jason’s room.

Jason was not completely asleep. So, he woke up when he heard the door being pushed open. Jason got up and turned on the bedside lamp. He saw those two little kids come in.

The tears were still hanging on the face of his little daughter. She looked pitiful. Jason’s heart tightened suddenly, “What’s wrong?”

“My sister had a nightmare. She kept crying,” Otto said to him.

Jason got out of bed directly. He hugged Nina in his arms, and softly coaxed her, “Don’t be afraid, Nina. I am here.”

Upon seeing that his sister’s mood gradually stabilized, Otto planned to go back to his room.

However, Jason stopped him, “You should sleep here too.”

Otto blinked, nodded, and did not refuse. He took the initiative to lie down on the bed. Jason’s heart softened when he saw it.

He stretched out his hand to help Otto cover the quilt, “I’ve worked hard on you tonight. Go to sleep. Good night.”

“Good night, Dad,” Otto responded obediently and closed his eyes.

At night, Nina still couldn’t sleep well. Not long after she closed her eyes, the little girl woke up while crying again. As soon as there was any movement, Jason immediately picked up and coaxed her. After making a fuss all night, the little girl’s face suddenly became abnormally red in the early morning. Her

body temperature was still a little hot. Jason raised his hand, touched her forehead, and found that she had a fever.

His eyes froze. He immediately yelled out the door, “Barret, find a doctor right away. Nina is sick!”

Barret didn’t dare to neglect. He quickly contacted the family doctor. The doctor didn’t dare to be negligent as well. So, he rushed over and did a checkup.

Fortunately, the situation was not too bad. It was just a common fever, and there was nothing serious.

But, Jason didn’t dare to take it lightly. Children’s bodies were very fragile. So, even minor illnesses could easily become serious. Moreover, Nina’s physique was already a bit poor.

After the doctor left, Jason asked someone to boil a pot of soft porridge. He prepared to let it cool down a bit and coaxed his daughter to eat it. Jason then didn’t go to the company.

At around ten o’clock in the morning, the doorbell rang. Jenny heard that her precious granddaughter was sick. So, she hurriedly brought Gail over to visit her.

“What’s the matter? Is my baby Nina seriously ill?” Jenny looked worried.

Because of leaning on the sofa every night, she looked very listless. Meanwhile, Otto stood to guard beside her.

Upon seeing those two children, Gail pretended to be worried, “Is Nina feeling very sick? Is it serious?”

As Gail spoke, she reached out to touch Nina’s forehead. Unfortunately, the pungent perfume smell on her body made that little girl feel uncomfortable. So, Nina frowned and then avoided Gail. She nestled into her brother’s arms.

The evasive attitude was too obvious. Gail’s hand froze in place. Otto then didn’t make a sound and hugged her sister very calmly. He looked at Gail’s eyes. She was very disgusted.
