Elara Don returned to her workstation and saw Xu Yan glaring at her with red-rimmed eyes.
This look, does it still seem like her fault?
She really didn't understand, where did Xu Yan's hatred for her come from?
"Charlotte, are you okay?"
Ethan Lane came out of the office and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, I've applied some medicine."
Elara Don smiled and wanted to sit back at her workstation.
A woman's sarcastic voice sounded in her ear, "Oh, you've applied medicine? Did Mr. Hawke personally apply it for you? Charlotte, you really have some charm."
It was Xu Yan again!
The smile on Elara Don's face faded slightly.
Ethan Lane frowned and scolded, "Xu Yan, didn't I tell you to apologize to Charlotte? Hurry up!"
"You want me to apologize to her?
Xu Yan felt wronged: "Director Lane, don't be fooled by her appearance, I've seen a lot of women like her, they just like to pretend in front of men!"
Wow!
Elara Don picked up the water cup on the table and splashed it over.
"Ah! You..."
Xu Yan was instantly soaked, shocked and angry, she pulled onto Ethan Lane, whining, "Director Lane, look at her!"
"Xu Yan, why are you shouting so loudly? Are you pretending too?"
Suddenly, it became a bit clear why Xu Yan was hostile to her.
Was she secretly in love with Ethan Lane?
And Ethan Lane was being overly enthusiastic with her?
This truly was an unwarranted disaster.
Elara Don was speechless, not interested in watching Xu Yan act coquettishly and complain to Ethan Lane, she sat down at her workstation.
At this moment, her phone rang.
It was an unknown number.
Elara Don didn't have the habit of not answering unknown numbers, so she picked up the call.
"Who is this?"
"Mommy, my tummy feels a bit uncomfortable."
The little guy's lifeless voice came through the line.
Elara Don was startled, not caring how the little guy used an unknown number to call her, she hurriedly asked, "Are you at home now?"
"Yes."
"Hang in there, I will be back right away."
After hanging up the phone, Elara Don hurriedly asked Ethan Lane for leave, "Director Lane, there's something at home. I'd like to take half a day off this afternoon."
"Oh, alright."
Ethan Lane didn't make it difficult for Elara Don, and offered warmly, "Is everything okay at home? Otherwise, I can drive you back."
"No need, I can just take a taxi."
Elara Don flashed a grateful smile, hurriedly picked up her belongings, and left.
Barely started work and already asking for leave!
Making all the men revolve around her!
This Elara Don is truly a vixen!
Xu Yan tidied her wet clothes and hair, watching Ethan Lane enthusiastically follow behind Elara Don, a face full of jealousy.
Originally, she was the prettiest and most favored woman in the R&D department, but as soon as Elara Don arrived, she stole her spotlight and attracted the attention of Ethan Lane and all the men!
She definitely would make her pay!
Blue Mountain Apartments.
Elara Don hurriedly entered the house, looking at Dominic Hawke sitting on the sofa with an unpleasant face, full of anxiety.
"Tang Bao, tell Mommy, where do you feel uncomfortable?"
"Mommy, my tummy feels so bloated."
Dominic Hawke held his little belly, his face a bit droopy.
"Bloated tummy? Do you have diarrhea?"
"No."
"It's okay, it's okay, Mommy will take you to see the doctor right away."
Elara Don softly comforted the little guy, picked him up, and quickly went out the door.
"Mommy, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
The little guy sniffed Elara Don's fragrance, his face full of apology.
"Tang Bao, what are you talking about? You're my son, it's Mommy who should apologize for not taking good care of you."
Elara Don hurried downstairs, rubbing the little guy's belly, while hailing a cab by the roadside.
If only Aunt Charlotte were really his Mommy, how good would that be?
Dominic Hawke nestled in Elara Don's arms, silently thinking.
Meanwhile.
Hospital lobby.
Harry Soo sniffled against the bodyguard's shoulder, trying hard to suck in the snot that was about to drip.
He successfully caught a cold by leaving the window open while he slept last night.
Ugh!
Feeling a bit miserable!
But to find a chance to escape, miserable or not, it didn't matter!
"Young Master, let's wait a moment for the eldest young master! He's on his way."
Ah Bin carried Harry Soo to a chair in the hospital and comforted him with a few words.
"Tall Uncle, I'm thirsty, I want some water. Can you go buy me a bottle?"
Harry Soo pretended to be well-behaved and said sweetly.
"Oh, alright."
Ah Bin readily agreed, thought for a moment, then picked up Harry Soo.
Harry Soo: "..."
Boo hoo!
This big guy has such high vigilance!
He was hoping to sneak away while he went to buy water!
"Young Master, what kind of water do you want?"
Ah Bin carried Harry Soo to the hospital's snack shop, putting him down.
Harry Soo casually pointed at a bottle of water with his little finger, contemplating whether to say that this person was a trafficker and make a run for it in the chaos.
At this moment, he happened to glance and saw a familiar figure not far away.
A woman was hurrying towards the elevator holding a child!
That's Mommy!
Harry Soo was both shocked and delighted, shouting out Mommy, and then dashed towards Elara Don's direction.
"Young Master!"
Ah Bin, who was paying, was startled, staring at the small figure running off, quickly turned around to chase after him.
The figure not far ahead was indeed Elara Don holding Dominic Hawke.
She vaguely heard someone calling Mommy and instinctively wanted to turn around.
Dominic, lying on her shoulder, also saw Harry Soo and instantly became nervous.
His little arms wrapped tightly around Elara Don, in a childish voice, "Mommy, my tummy still hurts."
Elara Don, who was about to turn back, focused immediately after hearing this.
She gently patted the little guy's back, softly comforting, "Don't worry, don't worry, Tang Bao, we'll see the doctor soon, and it will be okay."
"Hmm, Mommy, I really like you."
Sorry!
Tang Bao!
He really liked Aunt Charlotte too much.
Just one more day, okay?
Not far away, Tang Bao was desperately running, but watching Elara Don holding Dominic Hawke enter the elevator with the crowd, his heart was full of anxiety.
"Mommy!"
Boo hoo!
Stupid Mommy, why didn't you turn back to look at him?
He's her Tang Bao!
"Charlie, slow down!"
Victoria Don, who had just entered the hospital with Damon Hawke, saw Harry Soo yelling Mommy and rushing towards her direction, immediately shocked.
What's up with this little thing today?
Why was he so enthusiastic towards her?
"Let go of me, I want to find my Mommy!"
Tang Bao, held tightly by Victoria Don, looked anxious, struggling hard.
In the struggle, he accidentally knocked Victoria's sunglasses off.
The smile on Victoria Don's face paused, and she held him tightly.
Her freshly done nails pinched his bottom hard, yet a sweet smile still hung on her face.
"Charlie, what's the matter? Mommy's right here! Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, soon, Mommy and Daddy will take you to see the doctor."
Little rascal!
What's making you act crazy again!
Two days without a lesson, and you've grown some attitude!
The pain from his bottom made Harry Soo's little body stiffen, tears immediately welling up as he looked at Victoria Don.
His bottom hurt!
Was this vicious old lady pinching him?
Boo hoo!
He's so pitiful!
Would he not only not see Mommy from now on, but also be mistreated by this old lady!
