"Daddy, what's wrong?"
The two children thought that something was wrong with Mango again.
Nathaniel waved his hand and said, "Nothing. Your mommy is awake. She wants to eat something."
"Then, what..."
Wisdom still did not know what had happened, but Zion dragged him away.
"Let's go. Don't disturb him from cooking for his wife."
"Cooking?"
Wisdom was pulled away by Zion in bewilderment.
Nathaniel was in a jovial mood now.
Mango woke up, and she said that she was hungry. Emberly said that this time, it should be the reaction after her body was worn out, so she asked Nathaniel to prepare some light food for herself.
Of course, Nathaniel wanted to do it himself.
He had to comfort his wife after she had suffered too much.
Zion took advantage of this time to bring Wisdom to Mango's bedroom.
Zion's eyes moistened a little when he saw Mango.
"Mom, how do you feel?"
"I feel much better now."
Mango's body was extremely weak. When she had just finished listening to Emberly's praising for Wisdom, she saw her sons walk in.
She looked at the two children and smiled, "Come here and let me look at you."
Mango felt that she was simply too lucky to have escaped from death.
Who would have thought that Wisdom, who had learned medical skills for not a long time, would actually save her?
Zion and Wisdom came to Mango's side.
Emberly was very observant. When she saw that Mango was about to talk to the children, she left the room first.
Mango knew that Zion must have been terrified.
She held Zion's hand and said with a smile, "I'm fine now, right? Be good, go back to the Soo family tomorrow and continue to receive psychological counseling from them. You have to know that I'm worried about you, just like how you're worried about me. I'm sorry for that." "No, I believe you'll be fine."
Zion did not want to admit that he was really worried.
Seeing that her son was still so arrogant, Mango did not say anything else.
She turned to look at Wisdom.
He did not say much as usual. In front of Zion, he tried to lower his existence as much as possible, but it was because of this that made her feel sorry for him.
Mango stretched out her hand towards Wisdom.
Wisdom walked over to her.
"Mommy, how do you feel now?"
"It's good, it's much more comfortable. I didn't expect that you could treat patients alone at such a young age."
Mango's benevolent smile made Wisdom happy.
"Mommy, I'll work harder."
"You're already very good."
Mango recalled how Wisdom usually sat by the side reading books. She could not help but say, "Wisdom, I know that you really love studying medicine right now, but you have to have a worklife balance. I also hope that your health will be in great condition in the future." "Alright."
Wisdom answered obediently.
As long as Mango said it, he would try his best to do it.
Perhaps others did not understand why, but Wisdom would never forget that night when Mango was mute due to Islas poisoning.
He almost forgot how his biological mother looked like. Right now, his mind was filled with the shadow of Mango.
She was his parent and the one he would protect for his whole life.
Mango knew Wisdom was a clever boy and he held onto the concept of filial piety strongly. Then, Mango could not help but feel a little upset for him.
"You weren't like this before. You were cheerful and active, but now you're too quiet."
Mango knew that this was the symptoms of autism.
Many children who got autism would not remain cheerful after they recovered.
They would habitually divide themselves into another world, concentrating on doing something and neglecting the people and things around
them.
It was not that they were indifferent on purpose. They were really used to their own imaginations and behavior.
Wisdom's current situation caused Mango's heart to ache even more. She did not know what his life would be like in the future. Would his personality scare off girls in the future?
Mango was starting to worry.
Yet, Wisdom was not too emotional. He just whispered, "I'll try my best."
He would try his best, but it did not mean that he would definitely do it.
Wisdom gave himself and Mango a neutral answer.
Mango knew that although Wisdom looked more obedient, he had his own ideas and plans.
She did not want to interfere too much. At the worst, she'll just help him if he really could not deal with his romantic relationship when he's grown up.
Wisdom did not know Mango's thoughts. However, who would have known that it was Wisdom who marries first among the children after many years. But of course, these were in the future.
Wisdom inspected Mango once more. When he felt that Mango's condition was steady, he saw Mango's exhausted face.
"Mango, you're really lucky. But it doesn't matter, we have plenty of time in the future!"
Sophia sneered and began to ask her subordinates to pack up. She did not expect to receive a call from Walter.
Sophia was somewhat surprised.
"Walter? What can I do for you?"
Sophia knew that Walter was likely to know that she had dealt with Mango. She was already mentally prepared for this.
Walter's voice sounded a little uncomfortable.
"Mom, can you help me? I'm in trouble."
Sophia was startled for a moment.
Since her true identity was exposed, Walter no longer called her mother. This put her into a light trance when she heard him calling her 'mom'.
"Walter? What's wrong with you?"
"Help me, I don't know what to do now. Deborah is going to divorce me. Mom, what if she wants to divorce me?"
Walter's voice was already choked with sobs.
Sophia frowned.
She knew that Walter was going to die for Mango, but now she did not expect that he had also loved Deborah.
"Divorce then! Isn't she just a woman? You're my son. What kind of woman can't you get?"
At this moment, Sophia felt that Walter was a little chap who only focused on romantic love.
Carter was a playboy, so how did his son become someone so sentimental?
Sophia could not understand this at all.
Walter said sadly, "Mom, I have fallen in love with two women in my life, one was Mango, but unfortunately, fate played a big joke on me as I realized she's my cousin. Now I've worked hard to get out of the sadness and fell in love with Deborah but she doesn't want me anymore. Mom, I have already knocked Deborah unconscious and now she's in a hotel. But, I'm afraid. What if she wakes up and still divorces me? Mom, I don't understand how relationships work. Please teach me. What do I do?"
Hearing Walter's melancholic tone, Sophia's heart paused slightly.
Didn't Walter know about the vermin planted in Mango's body?
She asked subconsciously.
"Didn't you go to Mango?"
"Her husband and her children love her, so it's none of my business to care about her. Besides, I told Nathaniel that Charlotte was the one who asked Andrea to poison Mango. It's his problem if he can't find out anything. Debbie is about to divorce me and I've got no time to think about Mango's issue anymore. I have no time to worry about Mango. Mom, please tell me what to do."
Walter sounded urgent, while Sophia's mind was active.
According to Walter, Deborah was knocked out by him and she was trapped in the hotel. This was a good opportunity for her.
Originally, she came back for the issue of Grey family's sea navigation route. Now that Walter detained Deborah and if she could catch Deborah, perhaps the Grey family would be obedient to her.
Thinking of this, Sophia quickly sent someone to investigate whether what Walter said was true.
