After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218 Morgan’s “Secret”

Morgan was left no time to pause but followed Sion into the bedroom. She was walking while checking carefully if Theodore had hidden.

Sion pushed open the door and walked into the room, his eyes roaming around, not finding the changed clothes. Then he turned around and walked across the room to the closet. Morgan's eyes widened nervously, her brother could be in the closet she had just hidden in.

Feeling tense, Morgan suddenly had an idea. She kicked the chair next to her, squatting down and covered one of her feet as she cried with tears. She did bang her toes. Therefore, her pained expression was real.

Sion saw her squat down, sobbing.

"What's wrong?" he asked in a worried and nervous tone, which could not even be noticed by himself. And the next second he crouched down quickly to check her foot. Morgan was wearing slippers at home, thus her tender little foot immediately turned red and almost swollen without protection. The little girl was pathetically dropping tears. It seemed that she hurt a lot.

"Donna, bring the medicine box over here."

Sion shouted out to Donna. No sooner had he said it than Donna brought the medicine box in without taking off her apron.

"What's wrong?"

Donna was a little worried, and she let out an ouch while seeing Morgan, "How could we have let this happen? Poor girl."

Sion picked Morgan up and gently placed her on the sofa in the lounge.

"How did you bang your toes? Just be careful next time, okay?" Sion reminded her in a soft voice.

Morgan's eyes got redder whit her tears shedding down upon hearing Sion's words.

"It's okay, it won't hurt so much later."

Sion looked at her worriedly while wiping her tears with tissues, and his comforting words didn't stop.

"How did you bang your toes onto the chair, little miss? The chair was always there, nobody touched it before."

Donna's words seemed to remind Sion of something. His hands suddenly paused while he was rummaging around in the medicine chest. He took out the ointment and said to Donna without changing his face, "The chair is not used a lot. Move it from her room later."

It was a guest room. After Morgan lived in there, there was some new furniture added to the room. And the chair, since it didn't need much space, was left where it was without being removed.

"Okay, sir." Donna got the same idea as Sion, "I'll take it out later, and those useless things in her room to the utility room."

After Donna left, Sion took a cotton swab and continued to apply the medicine to Morgan's foot. The cold touch made the little one subconsciously shrink her foot.

"Does it hurt?" Sion raised an eyebrow and eased up on the pressure.

Morgan glanced up at him and sniffled. Her toe was red.

Sion gave her a probing look and said, "Since it hurts, don't bump it next time." He thought the girl was hiding something from him, so she diverted his attention by doing so.

What couldn't be seen in the closet?

Does a little girl at her age have secrets she was shy about?

Morgan met Sion's inquisitive gaze, and she instantly lowered her head. She quietly glanced at the closet not far away now and then. Her secret was her brother in the closet, and she must not reveal it. And at this time, Theodore opened a gap in the closet, taking great breaths. He heard what they said from inside, knowing that his sister was injured.

Distressful and worried, Theodore blamed himself for letting her get hurt and letting her hide in the closet for long before that.
