The following day, early in the morning, Elliot had placed a hot water bottle inside the bed covers. 

When Cecilia went to wake him up, she noticed his little face was flushed red. 

“Eli…” she called out softly. 

Elliot slowly opened her eyes. “Mommy.” 

“Are you feeling unwell?” Worry was evident in Cecilia’s eyes. 

Elliot nodded. “Mommy, I’m feeling a bit dizzy…” 

Upon hearing her son say he felt dizzy, Cecilia was filled with worry. “Let me dress you up. We’re going to the hospital right now.” 

Elliot was suffering from leukemia, so even the slightest illness couldn’t be left untreated. 

“Mommy, I don’t want to go to the hospital. I just want to stay home and lie down. Is that okay?” 

“No way! Your forehead is burning up.” Cecilia touched Elliot’s forehead again. 

Elliot explained, “I might have gotten a bit wet in the rain yesterday, but I’ll be fine after some sleep.” 

Nathaniel was also disturbed by the commotion here and walked over. “What’s going on?” 

The matter concerning her son was of utmost importance at that moment. Cecilia didn’t ignore him because of what had transpired the previous night. “Eli has a fever, and his forehead is burning up,” she said. 

“Mommy, don’t you have to go to work? Maybe Daddy can take me to the hospital instead,” Elliot said. 

He wanted to chat privately with Nathaniel. 

“How can I possibly go to work with you like this? I’ll just take a day off.” Cecilia was worried about him. 

“But you just took a day off yesterday, and Daddy is fine,” Elliot said, glancing at Nathaniel by the door. “Daddy, you’ll take me to the hospital, won’t you?” 

Naturally, Nathaniel wouldn’t refuse. He said, “Ceci, you go on to work. I’ll take him to the hospital.” 

Upon seeing that Elliot wanted Nathaniel to take him to the hospital, Cecilia didn’t utter another word. She helped him dress and handed over Elliot for Nathaniel to hold. 

She then sent Nathaniel and Elliot to the car. 

Once seated in the car, Nathaniel didn’t forget to remind Cecilia, “About last night, make a decision as soon as you can.” 

If not for Elliot’s presence, Cecilia would have really punched him. 

Elliot feigned ignorance. “What about last night?”

Elliot, however, was no longer the docile character he was at the beginning. He squirmed restlessly in Nathaniel’s arms. “Oh… My head hurts so much.” 

During this time, he didn’t forget to give Nathaniel a few good kicks. Hmph! How dare you bully Mommy? 

Nathaniel was not upset. He patiently soothed Elliot, saying, “The pain will stop once we get to the hospital.” 

Elliot was relentless, having already kicked Nathaniel numerous times. 

In fact, Nathaniel’s white shirt was covered in footprints, a testament to Nathaniel’s ordeal. 

“Daddy, my head is throbbing. I didn’t mean to kick you. Please don’t be mad or abandon me…” As Elliot kicked, he also sought to instill guilt in Nathaniel’s heart. “It’s all my fault. I was born with a weak body.” 

Upon hearing him say this, Nathaniel truly felt a sense of guilt. 

“It’s not your fault. It’s mine. I failed to take proper care of you and your mommy in the past.” 

If only he had treated Cecilia well from the beginning, Cecilia would’ve never faked‘ escape. Instead, she struggled through her days abroad pregnant and alone. 

However, it seemed like he still couldn’t protect her at that moment..

When Elliot noticed the air of sorrow surrounding Nathaniel, he couldn’t help but feel perplexed. Isn’t sc*mbag daddy involved with another woman? Yet, hearing his words now, why do they seem so filled with sadness? Could it be that Mommy and I misunderstood him? 

Elliot refrained from further attacking Nathaniel. Once they reached the hospital, he underwent a medical examination.
