Chapter 1029
Nathaniel noticed Sheena’s unease and gently reassured her, “Nana, don’t worry. Asher and
Adora are doing good. Asher already got his shot and didn’t cry. Adora seems a little
timider, but she’s quiet when I hold her.”
Sheena’s heart ached as she looked at Adora’s sad expression.
Finally, she managed to utter, “Thank you for your help.”
“It’s no problem,” Nathaniel replied with a smile, his eyes sparkling.
His beautiful blue eyes would only shimmer when they saw Sheena.
Elliot observed their interaction, his heart sinking. He suppressed his urge to cry and quietly went to
pack his suitcase.
Sheena paid little attention to Nathaniel, and her focus was entirely on Adora.
In the video, the doctor was preparing the injection, hiding the needle from Adora’s view. However, she
seemed to sense what wasing, wrinkling her nose and staring at the doctor suspiciously.
Sheena concealed her worry and smiled reassuringly at Adora..
“Be brave, Adora. Daddy and I will be back tomorrow. The doctor is really gentle, and it
won’t hurt.”
Pointing to Sheena on the screen, Nathaniel coaxed Adora, “Adora, look. Mommy is
watching you, and I’m here with you too.”
Adora seemed to feel her mother’s presence, weakly reaching out toward the screen with
her chubby hand.
Taking advantage of the distraction, the doctor swiftly administered the injection.
Btedly realizing the pain, Adora wrinkled her little features and shed tears. However,
instead of wailing loudly, she whimpered softly.
Her wet eyshes clumped together, making her look both pitiful and adorable.
“It’s okay, Adora. I’m here with you,” Shenaforted.
She felt so distressed when she saw Adora in pain, and tears started to well up in her eyes.
It had been so long since she felt this sad, and she held back tears in front of the camera.
Nathaniel also calmed the baby, saying, “Let me kiss your boo–boo. Now, now, it’ll all be
better.
After crying for a while, Adora nestled in Nathaniel’s arms and fell asleep, possibly due to
the difort of being ill.
Then, Nathaniel adjusted the camera to Lionel, who was holding Asher nearby.
Lionel looked a bit awkward, trying not to disturb the sleeping baby.
He grinned at Sheena, reassuring her.
After that, Nathaniel returned the focus to Sheena and gentlyforted her, “Nana, don’t be sad. It’s
normal for babies to catch a cold and run a fever. They’ve taken antipyretics and got their shots. After a
good night’s sleep, they’ll probably be fever–free by tomorrow. If you’re busy with important matters
there, don’t rush back. I’ll take time off from work to look after the babies, and I promise there won’t be
any more high fever incidents.”
“Thank you so much. I’ll treat you to a meal when I return.”
Nathaniel chuckled. “Sure thing, Nana. I’ve been looking forward to it. I’ll hold you to that
promise when you’re back.”
Sheena nodded, and the video call ended.
Alone by the bedside, she could not hold back her tears any longer, overwhelmed by
sorrow.
Only she knew how exhausting it was to carry the babies for nine months.
During their time in Laubabwe, Sheena had to secure Clear while safeguarding her unborn children.
Moreover, she suffered from severe morning sickness just six and a half weeks
into her
pregnancy.
Upon returning home, the Lawson family was in a mess, and she nearly reached a breaking point
several times.
She had endured much hardship while pregnant with Asher and Adora, and they were the only reason
she persisted during those tough times.
Seeing Adora suffer from a fever, crying and whimpering, Sheena felt a pang of hurt in her heart, filled
with empathy and guilt.

She silently endured her sorrow for a while until Elliot sighed and crouched beside her, gently cing
his hands on her knees and apologizing.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
