Chapter 2224


    "It''s over! Mommy is home!" La whined.


    Seeing how afraid she was, the bodyguard chuckled. "What are you so scared for? Just me it on


    your brother."


    "No way!" She scowled. "Besides, even if I tell her that Hayden pulled me out into the rain, do you


    really think Mommy is going to believe me?"


    "Then you are getting scolded." The bodyguard felt amused but did not dare to let it show. "Don''t


    worry, I''ll probably get a scolding, too."


    La took a deep breath and got out of the car.


    The rain had turned milder at this point. Avery and Mrs. Cooper came outside with an umbre to


    take them in, and Robert instantly burst into tears the moment he saw them.


    "Mommy, it''s hot... I''m dying!" Robert''s face was flushed as he cried.

    Avery immediately ran toward the car at the sound of Robert''s cry and Hayden unbuckled the


    seatbelt of Robert''s child seat, before carrying Robert to Avery.


    The bodyguard instantly realized that he had turned the heat up to the maximum out of fear that


    La and Hayden would catch a cold, but he had forgotten to remove Robert''s jacket.


    Robert was wearing a thick-down jacket and must have been on the brink of getting heatstroke.


    Avery felt as though she was holding a fireball when she held her son. Not having enough time to


    check on La and Hayden, she took Robert inside the house.


    "Darling, why are you so hot?" Avery did not know what had happened. "Are youing down with


    a fever?"


    She immediately took off his down jacket as soon as they were inside the house and noticed that


    his inneryer of clothes was drenched with sweat.


    Avery tensed and took the clothes off, before grabbing a nket from the couch to cover Robert.


    "It was hot inside… inside the car! Boohoo!" Robert sobbed pathetically.


    Just then, the bodyguard, Hayden, and La went into the house.


    When Avery saw that both La and Hayden were soaking wet, she immediately realized what had


    happened.


    "Miss Tate, here''s what happened." The bodyguard was about to exin everything to Avery when


    La hurried over to Avery and petted Robert on the head. "Don''t cry. We didn''t do it on purpose.


    I''m sorry."


    Robert pouted and hesitated. He did not know whether to forgive La or not.


    "La, what happened?" Avery looked at La.


    Seeing how they had started talking, Mrs. Cooper came and took Robert into the bathroom.


    "I dragged Hayden into the rain and we got soaking wet... Uncle didn''t want us to catch a cold and


    turned the heater up. We forgot that Robert wasn''t in the rain and was wearing a thick jacket," La


    confessed. "Mommy, it''s my fault! This has nothing to do with Hayden and the bodyguard."


    "Don''t me La." Worried, Hayden felt that he should be protecting his younger sister. "I was the


    one who took them out shopping. I didn''t check the weather report and didn''t know it was going to


    rain, so we didn''t bring an umbre."


    "I''m going to lecture her, but I won''t me anything on her," Avery said. "Go shower! I will take


    La to shower."


    La had long hair and she usually washed it herself or had her maid at home help her with it.


    Reassured, Hayden turned to return to his room.


    "By the way, Hayden, your dad is awake now," Avery added.


    "Ohh!" La eximed, "Daddy is alive?! He''s not dying?!"
