Chapter 726


    Mrs. Cooper thought about how Avery should not be handling heavy items right now, so she said


    thoughtfully, “Should I bring it up to your room for you?”


    Avery stared at the package in front of her, then shook her head and said, “I didn’t buy anything, so I


    don’t know what’s inside. Please open it up for me.”

    “Alright. I’ll go get some scissors.”


    When Mrs. Cooper went to get the scissors, Hayden and La walked over.


    Avery was in incredible pain from her wound, so she sat down on the couch.


    “What’s in the package, Mommy?” La asked as she arrived next to Avery.


    “I don’t know, either,” Avery said.


    “I didn’t buy anything recently.” Hayden’s brow furrowed.


    “Could it be something scary like thest time?” he guessed.


    His words sent rms ringing in Avery’s mind.


    Mrs. Cooper had said that the box was heavy. Could there be things like bricks or cement inside?


    “Take your sister to your room, Hayden.” Avery was worried that there really was something horrifying


    in the package. It would be awful if it scared the children.Hayden nced at the package for a moment,


    then grabbed a hold of La and dragged her toward the stairs.


    “I want to see what it is, Hayden!” La huffed quietly.


    “You’ll have nightmares if it’s something scary.”


    “I still want to see!”


    “We’ll take a look after Mommy opens it.”


    “Okay! Why isn’t Uncle Mike home yet? Didn’t he say he’d stay at home for the next few days to take


    care of us? He even said that Mommy needs to be taken care of!”


    Hayden also did not know why Mike had not returned. He also had a feeling that something was


    something off about his mother’s mood.He had originally thought that everyone except La and


    himself would be happy about Robert’s birth. In the end, it felt like everyone was upset apart from him


    and his sister.


    Did they not say that Robert would be able toe home after a month or so? Why was everyone so


    unhappy?


    “I’ll give him a call.” Hayden led La into their room, then used his smartwatch to call Mike.


    When Mike answered the call, he asked, “Hayden, is your mom home yet?”


    “Yes. Why aren’t you back yet?”


    “I’m at the hospital. I’ll be backter.”


    “What are you doing there? Didn’t they say Robert can’t have visitors?”


    Mike hesitated for a few seconds as he felt extremely torn.


    Even if he kept things from Hayden right now, he was bound to find out if Robert did not make it


    through this.


    “Your brother’s sick. Things aren’t looking good.” Mike tried his best to keep his tone light.


    ” Take care of your sister, Hayden.”


    “What’s wrong with him?” Hayden’s expression instantly turned gloomy. “Can’t they just treat him if he’s


    sick?”


    “He needs a blood change. We can’t find a source right now, so they can’t give him a blood transfusion.


    If he doesn’t get one soon, he’ll die. This isn’t something that can be settled with money, nor is it


    something that your mother’s medical skills can solve. That’s why you need to be alright. The two of


    you are the reason for your mother to keep living.


    In the living room downstairs, when Mrs. Cooper opened up the package, a ck headstone appeared


    before her eyes.


    She let out a scream of horror and stumbled back several steps!


    Avery saw the headstone from the couch and shot to her feet.


    Who would send her a headstone? Whose was it?! Her blood instantly boiled as a strong hunch rose


    inside of her.
