Chapter 88
“Judging from his blood test result, he seems to be suffering from a viral infection, but thankfully there
is no inmmation. This viral infection is a self-limiting disease. Usually, we will only treat the
symptoms, but the young master has not shown any symptoms so far.”
Meredith hurriedly went up and informed the doctor, “He threw up in the morning not long after he had
breakfast!”
“Throwing up is not a symptom. It’s normal to suffer from indigestion and vomit after a high fever.
Young Master Jamie has not had Rose before. Based on our observation, we highly suspect that he
is having Rose now. This particr disease affects newborns in the first two weeks after birth. Even
though it’s odd that he suffers from this disease at four years old, it is not totally impossible either.”
Then, the doctor went on to say, “What we need to do is to keep a close eye on his condition. We will
only interfere if his fever still does not go away after taking the medicine, or if he gets seizures from the
fever. For now, my suggestion is to ce him under observation because there is no way to test for
Rose. We can only wait for seventy-two hours before we can decide if it is truly Rose.”
After listening to the doctor’s lengthy but clear exnation, Meredith felt more assured because his
professional advice matched the description provided by the person she had called just now. However,
John remained gravely concerned. “What if it is not Rose?”
“Well, we don’t have a better way to tackle this problem. Our only choice is to closely observe his
situation and provide medical assistance at any moment if needed.” The doctor expressed his
helplessness and added, “A child’s thermoregtion system is not fully developed, so it is very easy for
them to experience high fever from time to time. This is a process he will go through to develop his
immune system. Personally, I do not rmend a full medical check-up because the child will only
suffer more.”
The family doctor was carefully hand-picked by John. Ever since the twins settled down in the Fowler
Residence, they were ced under the care of this doctor. Therefore, John had full trust in him, and
everyone decided to heed his advice and wait it out.
Consequently, poor Jameson alternated between high fever and recovery as torturous hours passed
by.
On the same day, Selena and Jude went to pick up Juniper from preschool. From a distance away,
Selena noticed that Juniper’s shoulders were drooping as if she was in low spirits, but she still waved
at the little girl.
Pouting, Juniper went up to Selena, who then pulled her aside. “What’s wrong? You look unhappy
today.”
Jude stayed in the car because her movie star identity would bring unnecessary attention upon them.
On top of that, she wanted to give Juniper a surprise.

“Mommy, I…” Juniper sounded rather hesitant. “Something happened between the other kids and me,
so I got quite upset about it. It’s nothing serious.” She quickly shed a smile to convince Selena.
However, Selena could tell that it was a forced smile. Despite that, she did not force her daughter to
confess the truth. She’s a big girl and keeps her own secrets now!
“surprise!mybaby!”
“Well, then I am going to give you a surprise!” After that, she led Juniper into the car. The second they
opened the door, Jude’s slender legs came into sight.
“Surprise! My baby!”
“Aunt Jude!” Juniper’s eyes widened in joy and she rushed into Jude’s embrace.
When Selena saw Juniper’s smile, she felt much more relieved.
“Did you miss me?” Jude yfully tapped the tip of Juniper’s nose. “Or are you busy getting to know
the handsome boys in school, so you havepletely forgotten about me?”
Selena always marveled at the weirdness of Jude; her cheerful behavior was a stark contrast to her
normally aloof personality, for she loved Juniper and only behaved like a normal person around the little
girl.
The three of them went home together that day. After dinner, Jude stayed in the living room with
Juniper while Selena took care of the dishwashing in the kitchen.
Juniper still looked a little upset, and the change in her mood did not escape Jude’s sharp observation.
