Chapter 207
Grandpa Dave was sitting on the couch when he saw Molly looking sick, so he asked caringly,” What’s wrong? Didn’t you get enough sleep? Why do you look so sick?” “I’m fine, grandpa. I just got caught in the rain for a bit, so I have a mild fever.” Molly’s legs felt heavy, and she was finding it hard to walk. ‘Why am I so weak now?’
The triplets just got out of the kitchen. Breakfast was ready, so they were about to call Molly and Grandpa Dave for breakfast.
But when the triplets heard their conversation, they immediately stared at Molly.
“Mommy, are you having a fever?” Alex asked.
‘Mommy looks like it. That’s how I look when I have a fever,’ he thought.
“Yeah, a little.”
The triplets immediately ran up and surrounded her.
“How did you get sick, mommy? It’s because you’re really busy these days, isn’t it?” Claudia held Molly’s hand with a concerned expression.
“We’ve already prepared breakfast. You can eat it in the living hall, mommy. I’m going to bring it out for you!” Ben immediately turned back to the kitchen.
Alex walked away as well. “I’m going upstairs to bring you some medicine,” he said. “I’ll pour you some warm water then.” Claudia let go of Molly and walked to the dining table to get some water.
Molly watched as the triplet parted ways; each had their unique way of doing things. But at the end of the day, all of them were just concerned about her.
“Don’t get under the rain anymore, Molly.” Grandpa Dave reminded Molly seriously as he watched the sensible and thoughtful triplets.
‘She’s old enough. Doesn’t she know that health is more important than anything? Molly sat next to Grandpa Dave as she listened to his words of concern. Her heart melted as she watched the triplets being busy for her too.
‘I’m no longer alone now. I have grandpa and my kids to care about me. I’m very happy with a life like this.’
“I will be more mindful next time.” Molly immediately smiled as she spoke in a gentle voice.
Grandpa Dave’s heart softened when he saw Molly being sensible. “You’re already a mother, Molly.”
“Yeah, Molly isn’t feeling very well.” Grandpa Dave nodded.
Ben and Alex came last and greeted Sean, “Hello, Uncle Sean.”
Sean immediately put the pieces together.
Tony said in surprise, “Wow, I didn’t know a doctor could fall sick.”
As Molly was a doctor, he thought she would never get sick as she could easily treat herself whenever she felt ill.
Molly had just left her room and was amused when she heard Tony while she was walking downstairs. ‘A doctor is still human. How will they not get sick?’
Sean saw Molly walking down and said, “I told you. You should’ve taken an umbrella with you.
The triplets realized their mother was awake when they heard their conversation, so they instantly ran to them and asked her questions as they were worried that she was still sick.
