Chapter: 1718
Renee looked at him with an anxious frown. �Where are you going, Quinton?�
�I told you that Chase has gone missing, and I just can�t let it go. I�ve got to do something about it.� Quinton had been thinking about Chase. There was a high possibility that he had drowned at sea, but even if that was the case, Quinton at least wanted to find his body. He had to know for sure.
�Yeah, you�re right. Chase was always loyal to you, and it�s normal to be worried but� you�ve just recovered.� Renee looked at her brother in concern.
�There�s nothing to worry about-l know what I�m doing. He might have encountered some pirates, and if I offered them money. It�s no big deal,� Quinton said confidently.
�I know you�ve made up your mind, but please be careful and contact me if anything happens. I might not be a big shot, but I�ve got some connections and means too. I can help you.�
�Okay.� Touching Renee�s head, Quinton smiled and said, �I�ll rely on my sister then.�
As the days passed, both Quinton and Leia left, making Renee�s ward feel quite empty. It made Renee feel miserable. Luckily, Margaret would bring Adie and Abby there to spend time with Renee after the children got back from school. Occasionally, Justin would also drop by to see Renee after work. When people visited, Renee didn�t feel so lonely, but today� she felt like something was off, as if someone was secretly watching her. She didn�t know if it was true or if she was just being paranoid.
�Miss, did anyone� come to see me today?� Renee hesitantly asked the nurse who came to change her IV drip.
The nurse looked at Renee and smiled. �No. Are you feeling a bit anxious, Miss Everheart?� Heaving a long sigh, Renee said glumly, �Maybe.�
Margaret came to the hospital with Adie and Abby in the evening. Adie held Renee�s hand warmly and stroked her hair the moment he entered the ward. �Mommy, we�re done with school for the day. Are you feeling better?� He asked gently.
�Yes, I�m much better. I�ll be leaving the hospital in no time.� Renee touched Adie�s cheek. The sight of her children eased her pain much better than any medicine.
Looking cute in pigtail braids and a pink denim jumper, Abby carefully handed a cherry tomato to Renee. �I grew a cherry tomato plant at the kindergarten, Mommy, and this is the only tomato that grew. I want you to have it; you�ll get better after you eat it."
�Don�t you want to eat it since there�s only one, Abby?� Renee stared at the cherry tomato in Abby�s hand as if it was a treasure.
�No, Mommy, I want you to eat the best food there is. I watered this plant and watched it grow every day. It�s a magical cherry tomato, and I�m sure it�ll protect you,� Abby said seriously.
Renee could tell that Abby spent a lot of effort to grow that cherry tomato plant, which was probably why the little girl genuinely thought that the cherry tomato was some kind of magical pill that could cure all illnesses.
Naturally, Renee didn�t want to rain on Abby�s parade, so she took the cherry tomato and stuffed it into her mouth. �Wow, it�s so sweet! It�s the sweetest cherry tomato I�ve ever had, and I feel so much better after eating it. I don�t feel any pain at all� Abby, are you a magician? You planted a magical cherry tomato!� Renee said enthusiastically.
�Ah, wonderful! Mommy will recover now, I�m so happy!� Abby danced around the ward excitedly. She had been holding the cherry tomato in her hand since she left the kindergarten, taking great care not to crush it, and she is now felt that her efforts had not been in vain. She had gotten what she had wished for.
Seeing that, Adie frowned thoughtfully, then said to Renee, �I�ve got another way to speed up your recovery, Mommy. Wait for me!�
�What do you mean?� Renee glanced at Adie curiously. Frankly, she was worried about Adie�s sudden idea because he was too smart and his plans were always complex. She couldn�t afford any trouble right now.
�Don�t worry about it. Just wait for me, I�ll be right back.� After that, Adie ran out of the ward.
�Hey, Adie� Adie!� Renee called after Adie worriedly. However, Margaret waved her hand dismissively. "Don�t worry, Miss Ren, he�ll be fine. He knows you like flowers, and when we passed by the garden downstairs, he said he wanted to pick some for you. I think that�s what he�s going to do now.�
Margaret was right-after Adie ran out of the ward, he went straight to the garden downstairs. Since the hospital was a high-end private hospital, it was equipped with a beautiful garden. There were only a few patients in the spacious garden, and it was not crowded at all. JrNovels.com
