Chapter 22 A Guy Who Puts Love Before Friendship
Several people made a sound scornfully. Then Todd answered the phone very ostentatiously and also opened the handsfree.
"Hello? Jeffrey! You miss daddy, don't you?"
Ryder, Shamar, and the others all squinted at him. Everyone thought Todd deserved to be beaten!
Jeffrey's childish voice sounded. "Daddy, what are you doing? Tell you one thing, mommy is injured. Come and see her quickly!"
"What? Is Mommy injured?"
As soon as Todd heard this, he bounced up from the sofa. "How did she get hurt? Where is she now?"
Jeffrey said the address. Ryder, Shamar, and the others looked surprised. Why were Todd's wife and children at Calvin's house?
Several people looked at Calvin at the same time and found that Calvin's appearance made others feel scared.
It was horrible!
"Well, well, well. I will be right away. Wait for me!"
Todd hung up the phone, got up immediately, picked up his coat and car key, and went out. "Drink yourselves. I'll go first."
"Hey, you can't just leave now!"
Shamar shouted and couldn't stop Todd. Ryder complained, "See? A typical guy who puts love before friendship!" This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
After Todd left, Shamar and the others continued to find Calvin to drink, but Calvin's mobile phone received an SOS distress signal from his son.
Calvin, who was worried about having no excuse to go back, immediately got up and picked up his coat, and went out.
Seeing Calvin leaving, Shamar asked curiously, "Alas, Calvin, why did you also leave?"
"My son is looking for me."
Calvin left the box quickly. Outside Club Rapture, Todd had just started the engine. Calvin opened the rear door and got on.
Todd saw him come up and asked curiously, "Calvin, why did you come out?"
"Don't talk nonsense! Drive quickly!"
Calvin didn't know how badly Jocelyn was injured. Now he just wanted to go back and have a look.
...
In the bathroom, Jocelyn was treating the wound by herself. Before long, she found a small head emerging from the door in the mirror.
Jocelyn looked back and said, "Sean? What's up?"
As for Calvin's son, Jocelyn was not familiar with him and had little communication with him. She was extremely cautious when getting along with him, for fear that he would be sensitive.
At this time, Sean came to her alone. Was there any problem?
Sean didn't speak. He walked straight in, reached out to her, and handed her something.
Jocelyn looked down and saw that it was a band-aid with cartoon patterns.
Knowing that she was injured, Sean came to give her a band-aid?
Looking at the band-aid in Sean's hand, Jocelyn suddenly felt moved and a little sorry.
She squatted down, smiled, and said, "Are you worried about me? Are you sending me a band-aid especially? Thank you! Sean, you're so considerate!"
Jocelyn took the band-aid, touched his small face, and stared at him carefully for a while.
Sean was not used to being touched by others, but he found that he didn't hate her touching his face.
Granny Beatrice secretly told him that Tammy's and Jeffrey's mother would also be his mother in the future. He didn't know what it felt like to have a mother. Was it the feeling that Jocelyn just touched his little face?
What a strange feeling!
Sean was shy and embarrassed to stay in Jocelyn's arms, broke free of her hand, and ran out directly.
Looking at the running child, she couldn't help laughing. It seemed that being a stepmother was not a bad thing. Sean didn't seem to reject her very much.
Besides, Sean really liked Tammy. Maybe it was really possible to cure Sean's aphasia in the future!
After simple cleaning up, Jocelyn changed into a long shirt with a high neckline and successfully covered her wound.
She was going to tidy up her suitcase, but Jeffrey came and pulled her away.
"Jeffrey, what are you doing?"
"Mommy, stop working and go to bed quickly!" said Jeffrey.
"I'm not sleepy!"
"You'll be sleepy. You lie down and have a rest. I will tell you stories."
Jeffrey knew that Jocelyn was injured, and now asked her to lie down and take care of her like a little adult.
Jocelyn was eventually persuaded by Jeffrey, so could only lie down in the guest bedroom and have a rest. Jeffrey found a small speaker and played music for her.
After a while, Tammy came in and brought a glass of milk and some diced fruit.
"Mommy, I'll feed you to drink and eat. You can only sleep when you are full."
Jocelyn drank the milk sent by Tammy, ate the diced fruit, and listened to Jeffrey's story. To be honest, every time she was injured or sick, it was her happiest moment.
Having such a caring pair of children was really the greatest wealth of her life!
Maybe the music was too hypnotic. After drinking milk, she really fell asleep soon.
Jeffrey saw that Jocelyn was asleep and quietly opened her collar to see that there was a large piece of white gauze under her collar.
Jeffrey frowned and muttered, "Daddy will be distressed if he sees Mommy injured."
"Jeffrey, I will go outside to see if Daddy has come!"
Tammy finished and ran away.
...
The luxury car galloped on the road. Todd drove all the way to Fallcastle.
Todd was thinking about Jocelyn. After getting off, he ran directly to the gate of Fallcastle without saying a word.
Calvin looked at Todd's nervous appearance and took a deep breath. He thought Todd really regarded Fallcastle as his own home.
Tammy, waiting at the door, finally saw Daddy coming and ran out happily to greet him. "Daddy! Daddy..."
"Tammy!"
When Todd saw Tammy running, he opened his arms and hugged her.
Calvin, who followed Todd, felt strange when he saw the little girl throw herself into Todd's arms. Calvin increasingly hated him.
"How is Mommy?"
"She is asleep now."
"Go, take me to see her!"
Todd took Tammy by the hand and walked towards the villa. Calvin looked at their back with a complex expression.
Upstairs, Todd came to the door of the guest bedroom and saw the woman lying on the bed. He was about to go in. Calvin stopped him. "She is asleep. Don't go in and disturb her!"
Todd raised his eyebrow and looked at Calvin in surprise. "Calvin, my wife is injured. Can't I go in and have a look?"
Despite the obstruction, Todd insisted on going in. Meanwhile, Calvin looked furious.
In the room, Jocelyn was deeply asleep. Todd came in quietly and saw Jeffrey next to her. Todd whispered, "Jeffrey, where did Mommy get hurt?"
Jeffrey stretched out his small hand and pulled open Jocelyn's collar to show him. Todd saw a piece of white gauze and suddenly frowned deeply.
He thought that Jocelyn was really injured!
Should she be sent to the hospital since she was so badly injured?
