Chapter 1379 Who Made the Child Cry?
George red at Olivia with a hint of annoyance in his eyes. “Why are you stillughing? Stop it. You
need to find a way to make them leave, or I’ll end up running sooner orter.” She chuckled. “They
came for you. How should I get rid of them?” He furrowed his brows. “Aren’t you always full of ideas?
Hurry up and think of something.” “You don’t like either of them?” she asked. “Don’t you already know
who I like?” “Alright, alright. I got it,” Olivia yfully retorted. In the meantime, Penny had already
spotted Eugene and greeted him with delight, “Eugene, you came back.” Puzzled, he wondered how
she managed to find him despite not disclosing his location to her. “Why are you here? Are you looking
for me?”
She smiled sweetly. “I’m here for George.” He was surprised. “When did you two get so close?” Penny
blushed. “We’ve been close for a long time, okay?” He was taken aback. Judging from her face, it
seems she fancies George. Is he the man she likes? Before he could figure it out, Olivia arrived. She
handed a lollipop to the crying child, who immediately stopped crying after receiving it. Instantly, the
room became much quieter. She sat beside the child, ying with him for a while before subtly
checking his wrist. Then, she looked at Mika. “Your child is crying so intensely. Why aren’t you
comforting him?” Her words were not aggressive, but her tone exuded a sense of authority that
contrasted with Penny’s. Mika’s tone unconsciously softened. “He doesn’t want me. Every time I
hold him, he cries. I don’t know what’s wrong with him. I was just thinking of letting Dr. Parsons take a
look.” Seems like Mika wants to pick up where she left off with George. How delusional of her. “Have
you beening here these days?” Mika’s gaze shifted to the child, who was now quietly eating the
lollipop. “Yes, he seems to be in a better mood here.” Olivia asked, “And what does Dr. Parsons say
about his condition?” Frowning, Mika felt annoyed by her questioning. I don’t even intend to seek
her help, so why is she trying to show off here? As she nced at Eugene standing by her side, she
maintained herposure and responded, “The doctor mentioned that he might’ve been frightened,Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
but the prescribed medication doesn’t appear effective. He continues to cry at the slightest movement.”
Observing the child enjoying his candy, Olivia inquired, “In what situations does he cry?”
Mika responded, “He cries whenever I hold him!” With that statement, she appeared eager to
demonstrate her point to Olivia and lifted the child, who had been peacefully seated on the chair,
attempting to console him. Shortly after, the child’s legs twitched, and tears welled up as he called out,
“Mommy!” With an anxious and helpless expression, she looked at Olivia. “You see, just like this.” As
Olivia’s face darkened, she attempted to take the child, but Eugene, who looked worriedly at her
abdomen, quickly intervened. “Don’t hold him.”
Jewel chuckled and promptly offered, “Olivia, I’ll do it.” Taking the child from Mika’s arms, she gently
coaxed him. After a while, the child’s crying subsided, but he remained visibly upset with tears and
asional sniffles. He looked at Mika with an innocent and pitiful expression. Despite her child’s
distress, she did not even spare a nce. As soon as George finished his work, she hurriedly
approached him. “George, could you please take a look at Alvin?” Olivia stopped her and could not
control her anger, questioning, “You don’t see any problem with leaving your child in the care of just
anyone or a stranger?” Despite seeing Olivia stop Mika, George acted as if he had not heard her
and proceeded toward the backyard. Mika furrowed her brow and nced at Olivia, who was
blocking her, with a slight hint of annoyance in her eyes. “Any problem? Then, tell me, why is he
crying?” Olivia’s voice turned icy. “Shouldn’t you know best?”
