Chapter 135: Chapter 135

59.74 Chapter 135 “Zoe is burning with fever, Leo. Did you give him medicine?”

During extreme winters, kids were prone to get sick. It was parents‘ duty to take good care of their children. That was what I expected from the most eligible father, Leo, who won the custody battle only because of his excellent care But he disappointed me!

“I have told you that Zoe isn’t eating anything. How can I feed him medicine?”

Gosh!

I just couldn’t keep up with that man’s idiocy and got up, grabbing my bag.

“There’s a place called the hospital for sick people, Leo. You should have taken Zoe there.”

With that, I stormed out of my office, Leo followed me like a lost puppy.

“Ask Zoe!

He doesn’t want to go to the hospital either.”

Zoe squirmed in my arms, crying piteously.

“I hate hospitals. Doctors give me bitter medicines.”

As I reached the parking lot, my driver opened the door of the car for me. I pacified Zoe while sitting in.

“When we went to visit dad in the hospital, didn’t you see a cool vending machine there, -Zoe?

Let’s go and buy candy from it. The doctors wont give you anything you don’t like.”

As Zoe was merely a kid, he readily agreed to go for candies and drinks. Leo was stupefied to witness our agreement so fast. He gasped in disbelief.

55.84 Chapter 135 “I begged Zoe to take a pill for two hours, but he cried all the time and threw away the glass.

How did you do it, Laura? This is purely magic!

I ignored Leo’s dumb queries and ordered the driver to drive faster as my heart drumming chest. in my ears was blocking all the voices. Zoe’s fever was aching my It was evident from his condition that he was suffering from our fight, missing the warmth of a happy family. Hurting my own baby was the last thing I wanted to do and unfortunately, that was the case over here. He was sick because of me.

The pediatrician attended Zoe and immediately administered IVs and injections; he asked me.

“Why is Zoe in so much depression? His eyes were swollen due to constant crying.”

Leo’s accusatory glare fell on me as he sneered, not leaving a moment to blame me.

“It’s because of legal proceedings, Doctor. Laura filed for full custody, but I won the case. So, Zoe is missing his mommy.

Laura isn’t up for shared custody.”

Leo brazenly broadcast our private matters in the name of history and made me look like a monster in everyone’s eyes. I was hell embarrassed when that doctor addressed me seriously.

“I don’t have any right to speak on your personal issues, but I must say, please try to be flexible for the sake of your son, Miss Laura!

Zoe is a delicate kid; he could grow resentment or deep–rooted hatred towards you or Mr. Leo for this disagreement.

Please be solicitous!”

Zoe’s ragged situation hit my head with a sledgehammer, I found myself guilty of harming my son when Leb said, “Zoe is sad because he can’t enjoy our company in one home.

60.0%

Chapter 135 Jane is spoiled by your love, but look at our son, Laura. Melody had neglected him, as she didn’t have any connection with Zoe.

Please, Laura. Think about it!

Zoe needs us both...”

“Zoe needs Laura, not you, Leo!”

In the middle of Leo’s emotional speech, my brother’s commanding tone sliced through the tense atmosphere.

“It’s your fault that Zoe fell ill in your safe home Then why are you accusing Laura only?”

Henry, my knight in shining armor, flashed by my side, he placed his hand on my protectively. Leo’s face turned gray to see Henry, he stammered in response.

shoulder “W–What are you doing a–at the hospital, Henry?”

My brother’s out of the blue appearance flabbergasted Leo, and then Henry’s reply smacked him across his face.

“I am here to see your problematic girlfriend, Melody, Leo. Wasn’t she tue perfect woman for you in the past five years?

Why didn’t you realize back then that she wasn’t paying attention to Zoe?”

“I just... want Mommy,” Zoe hiccuped, his tiny fingers gripping my coat like I was the only solid thing in his world.

His face was damp with tears, his breathing shallow and uneven. His fevered body shivered, not just from the cold but from exhaustion.

“I don’t wanna be alone anymore,” he whispered, his voice so soft it nearly broke me.
