Creak.
As Niamh was explaining, the door of the ward was pushed open.
Kendrick’s tall and lean body instantly appeared in Niamh’s vision.
“Kendrick?“ Niamh widened her eyes in surprise. “ Why are you here?“
Kendrick looked at Niamh with a serious face as he strode in.
“Nia, what are you doing here alone?“ Kendrick looked solemn. He seemed to be worried about Niamh coming to look for Hannah alone. Then, he walked over and took Niamh’s hand. “Come home with me.“
Niamh was on Kendrick’s side but she had a feeling that Kendrick pulling her away at this moment would definitely trigger Hannah.
Sure enough, Hannah suddenly pulled out the IV drip from the back of her hand and rushed toward Niamh.
“Let go of my sister! “ Hannah rushed forward and grabbed Niamh’s arm. Then, she glared at Kendrick with furious eyes.
“Who are you? Why are you taking my sister away! Let her go!“ Hannah stretched out her hand and tried her best to push Kendrick away.
However, Kendrick turned his hand and pushed Hannah away ruthlessly before pulling Niamh into his arms.
Hannah instantly fell to the floor. After being in a daze due to astonishment for a few seconds, she quickly got up.
As soon as she stood up, she moved to grab Niamh again.
Kendrick saw through Hannah’s intentions and raised his stern eyes that were as cold as an icy dagger.
“Don’t get close to my wife anymore.“ Kendrick stopped before speaking the words that were as cold as ice. “Don’t go around pretending to have lost your memory or to be delirious. Even if you’re sick, Nia and I are not responsible for taking care of you.
You’d better behave yourself.“
After Kendrick said that coolly, he grabbed Niamh’s hand and left.
Niamh thought Hannah would chase after them but she did not.
After Kendrick brought Niamh to the car, he began to convince her.
He seemed to be such a noble and frigid man, but he kept chattering all the way back to the house.
“Eveline Montgomery, do you remember my words? Don’t go and see that person again. Did your sixth sense not tell you that this woman is dangerous? She must have a reason for acting like this, do you understand?“
Niamh listened to Kendrick’s earnest advice and nodded seriously.
“Yes, Mr. Waldburg, I remember everything you said. Don’t worry, I won’t go and meet her alone again.“
Niamh went along with Kendrick, agreeing to everything very obediently.
Kendrick looked at Niamh’s obedient face and raised his hand to caress her head.
Niamh listened to Kendrick and did not go to see Hannah again.
However, she received another call from the hospital saying that Hannah had disappeared without going through the discharge procedures.
Since the nurse had heard Hannah calling Niamh her sister before, the hospital decided to contact Niamh.
After Niamh paid Hannah’s hospital and medical expenses, she went home.
As usual, when Jackson was about to finish school, Niamh drove to pick him up.
When Niamh was waiting at the school gate, she found that her son was very popular with the girls.
Jackson was walking in front. He was surrounded by several cute and pretty little girls.
However, Jackson seemed to have inherited Kendrick’s cold temperament. No matter how enthusiastically the girls were when they talked to him, he just ignored them.
As soon as he saw Niamh, he enthusiastically lifted his long legs and quickly ran over.
Niamh stretched out her arms to the little guy and picked up the handsome boy who had run in front of her.
However, the little guy seemed to be heavier than before.
This showed that the child was slowly growing up. Niamh turned around happily as she carried her son.
“That’s Jackson’s mommy.“
“His mommy is so beautiful, so that’s why Jacky is also so handsome.“
“But he doesn’t play with us.“
“My mommy said that all boys can’t resist it when girls act coquettish. So, from tomorrow onward, let’s all be coquettish to Jacky so that he’ll want to play with us.“
“Okay.“
After listening to this girl’s suggestion, the other little girls responded seriously.
Niamh could not help but smile when she heard the girls’ innocent words.
After getting in the car, Niamh asked her son who was sitting in the back. She was pretending to be curious.
“Jack, why don’t you play with those girls? Don’t you like them?“
“There are only two girls I like the most. One is you, my mommy, and the other is Lily,“ Jackson replied without thinking.
Niamh felt that her son’s eloquence was good enough to coax girls.
Coupled with his exquisite appearance, she wondered how many girls would be charmed by him i n the future.
“Mommy, don’t you think so? “ Jackson asked with big innocent eyes. “None of those girls really want to be my friends. I don’t want to waste time socializing with them.“
Socializing.
This little guy was using such a word.
Niamh could not help feeling that her son knew too much.
“Then, what do you think a true friend is?“ “True friends are those who not only share happiness with you but also share your worries with you. “ Jackson did not even think before giving out such an answer.
Niamh did not expect her son to understand such truth at such a young age.
She agreed with what her son said, but she did not want Jackson to be too knowledgeable of such things at such a young age.
Children should act like children. They should be naive, innocent, and ignorant.
However, Jackson was destined to be different from other kids.
Unbeknownst to them, white snowflakes started falling from the sky and the bleak wind from late winter blew outside the car window.
When they were almost home, Jackson suddenly poked his head out and looked in front of him.
“Look, Mommy, is there a person lying there?“
Niamh looked in the direction Jackson was pointing and indeed, she noticed a person curled up by the flower bed beside the road.
She stopped the car, took her coat from the passenger seat, and quickly walked over.
When she walked over, she found that it was a very thin woman. Niamh took a closer look and saw that the figure of this person was slightly familiar.
“Mommy, watch out! “
Suddenly, she heard her son’s voice behind her. Niamh stopped abruptly as she was approaching the flower bed.
Jackson hurried to Niamh’s side and grabbed Niamh’s hand.
“Mommy, it’s the evil woman.“ Jackson could see Hannah’s face clearly and remembered that she was the evil woman who threatened Niamh with a fruit knife in the car.
Niamh had also recognized that this woman was Hannah now.
Hannah escaped from the hospital and actually came to Old Waldburg Manor. Niamh figured that Hannah was here to find her.
She did not want to care about Hannah anymore, but it was winter and it was still snowing at the moment. If Hannah continued to lie beside the flower bed, she would definitely catch a cold. She might even freeze to death.
“Mom, leave her alone. I think this woman will suddenly attack you like last time.“ Jackson reminded Niamh and took her hand tightly.
“I know. I’ll be very careful, “ Niamh said and put her coat over Hannah’s body. “I’ll not waste my time with her. I ‘ll ask the others to come and tell her to leave.“
“Okay.“ Jackson nodded his head in satisfaction.
Although the teacher taught them to help people in need, this evil woman did not look like someone who really needed help.
After Niamh brought Jackson into the car, she drove the car into the parking garage of the old manor. Then, she told the servants about Hannah and asked them to tell her to leave. Whether she was acting or not, she should at least get up from the snow.
