Chapter 282: Staying Here with You
After a thorough examination, Olivia finally breathed a sigh of relief when it was confirmed that Sophia had no other injuries besides some scrapes.
However, Victor was still worried and insisted that Sophia stay in the hospital for observation overnight.
Seeing that it was getting late, Olivia turned to leave. “Since Sophia is fine, I’ll take the children home to rest. If you need anything, feel free to contact me.”
With that, she turned to walk out.
Just as she reached Victor’s side, he grabbed her wrist.
Olivia gasped in surprise.
“Have her checked as well,” Victor said to the doctor, still holding her wrist.
Hearing this, Olivia turned back and refused, “There’s no need. I know my own body. I’m not hurt. I just want to go home and rest.”
But Victor didn’t let go.
Olivia had no choice but to comply. She walked over to the doctor, rolled up her sleeve to reveal a scrape on her wrist that was oozing blood.
It was a scrape she got while pulling Sophia earlier. She didn’t want to worry the children and thought she could handle it herself, but she didn’t expect Victor to notice.
Seeing the scrape on her wrist, Victor’s eyes darkened.
The two children were even more worried. “Mommy, you’re hurt!”
Olivia smiled reassuringly at them. “It’s just a small scrape, nothing serious.”
The doctor quickly treated her wound, and the group left the emergency room.
Nathan went to handle Sophia’s hospital admission procedures.
Olivia was still worried about Sophia and followed Victor to the hospital room.
After placing Sophia on the bed, Sophia slowly woke up.
Sebastian and Ethan were the first to notice and immediately leaned over the bed, looking at Sophia with excitement. “You’re awake! Are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Sophia blinked in confusion before slowly waking up. She shook her head at the two little boys.
The children felt something was off but were too happy about Sophia waking up to dwell on it. They stayed by the bed, chatting with her.
Olivia watched for a while before stepping forward to touch Sophia’s little face.
Sophia smiled at her and reached out to touch the bandage on Olivia’s wrist, looking worried.
Olivia softly reassured her, “It’s just a scrape. It doesn’t hurt.”
Then she asked with concern, “Sophia, you must be hungry. What would you like to eat? I’ll get it for you.”
Sophia tilted her head and thought for a moment before shaking her head.
Olivia’s eyes darkened as she turned to look at Victor.
Victor also looked at Sophia on the bed, his eyes equally dark.
They both realized that since waking up, Sophia hadn’t said a single word, not even to Olivia or the two children.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Clearly, this incident had affected Sophia’s condition.
“It’s getting late. You should take the children home to rest,” Victor said heavily.
Olivia frowned slightly, hesitating.
If she didn’t know about this situation, she would have taken the children home.
But seeing Sophia like this now, how could she leave?
Sophia became anxious when she heard that Victor wanted Olivia to leave and clung to Olivia’s clothes, her little face full of reluctance.
Olivia gently held Sophia’s hand. “I’ll stay here with you.”
Then she turned to Victor and said, “I’ll stay with Sophia. She must be hungry. Please have someone get her something to eat.”
Victor agreed and asked Nathan to buy food for everyone. They all ate something in the hospital room.
