Chapter 1468
Two days later, it was the weekend. Jake and Chelsea didn't need to go to school, so they kept Rosalie company in the hospital.
"Mommy, do you feel any pain in your body?" Chelsea asked, worried.
Rosalie caressed her daughter's head and said, "No, I don't. Don't worry. How is everything in kindergarten? Are you used to it there?"
"I want to be with Mommy," Chelsea said indignantly.
"Chelsea, you're still very young. It's not good for you to always be at the
hospital," Rosalie said. "I'll be discharged once I get better. For now, just be good and go to school."
Chelsea nodded. "Okay, Mommy. I'll be good."
Rosalie turned her attention to Jake. "Jake, come here and let Mommy take a good look at you."
Having not seen him for so many years, Rosalie wanted to spend every waking moment with him.
Jake walked over to her, opening his mouth as if wanting to say something, but when he drew close to Rosalie, he still felt rather reserved.
He was now willing to be close to Rosalie, but still unwilling to call her Mommy. Or perhaps he wasn't unwilling-he just didn't know how to say it.
"Jake, I heard from Theodore that you've been taking care of your sister over the past few days, reading stories to her and coaxing her to sleep. You're such a good boy, I'm so proud of you."
Jake felt rather shy.
"Jake, can you call me Mama?" Rosalie really wanted to hear him call her that.
Jake knew how to speak when he was very young and always called her that, but now, he wasn't willing to address her that way. She didn't want to force him, but she was afraid that she might suddenly die before she could hear it once more.
The tears welling up in Rosalie's eyes filled Jake's heart with fear. He turned and ran out of the ward.
Rosalie sighed.
"Mommy, Jake will call you Mama one day," Chelsea said softly. "Jake is very nice, he's just shy."
Rosalie nodded. "Mommy knows. Chelsea, Jake is very nice to you and takes good care of you, so you have to be nice to Jake and take care of him, too. You two siblings have to take care of each other, okay?"
Chelsea nodded. "Yes, Mommy. Can I hug you for a while?"
"Of course, you can. Come on up." Rosalie patted the empty space next to her on the bed.
Chelsea crawled up the bed and dove into Rosalie's embrace.
Jake paced up and down the corridor outside, pouting and feeling very conflicted inside.
Should he call her Mama?noveldrama
Right now, he didn't hate her one bit.
He also wanted her to hug and kiss him, but he felt embarrassed. He envied
Chelsea for being so close to her mommy.
In fact, he felt a little jealous.
Jake turned a corner and suddenly heard a voice.
"Mr. Spencer, have you been resting well the past few days?"
"Yes, I have. Please arrange for the surgery as soon as possible."
"Alright, then, inform Ms. Young later that we found a donor for her, that he got into an accident and is now in a vegetative state. He'll removed from life support
tomorrow, and after that, wo eignet
have
the surgery.
"Sure. Don't expose yourself."
"Mr. Spencer, I think you care very much for Ms. Young. If you don't tell her you're the donor, you'll have to find an excuse when you can't be by her side after the surgery."
"I'll think about it when that time comes. No matter what, the priority is to make sure she lives on."
"Master Jake," a bodyguard called out as he carried Jake in his arms. "It's crowded in the hospital. Don't run around."
His voice attracted Theodore's attention, and he turned the corner and saw Jake. "Jake, why are you here?"
"I was just walking around. I'm going back to Mama's room now." Jake shook off
the bodyguard's hold and ran back to Rosalie's ward.
Theodore was about to run after him when his phone rang.
He pulled it out and answered the call. "Hello. How is it? Got it, I'll head over later."

After hanging up, he said to Dr. Landon, "I need to go to my office to settle some things. Go ahead and tell Rose about the donor after L leave It'll sound more believable if I'm not around. I'll pretend I know nothing about it."
"Yes, Mr. Spencer." Dr. Landon would try his best to cooperate with Theodore.
Having been a doctor for so many years and seeing so many people plagued by sickness and death, he seldom
saw someone as dedicated as Theodore, who was willing to
sacrifice himself for his loved one.
It seemed Theodore didn't fit the usual profile of rich people who only sought their
self-benefit.
There was true love in the world, after all.
It was so rare that people ended up not believing in it.
Theodore walked to Rosalie's ward and saw the two children seated on the bedside, keeping her company. He was very glad at the harmonious and happy sight before him.
"Rose, I have something to do back at the office."
"Go ahead and be busy. Don't worry about us here," Rosalie said.
Theodore said to Jake, "Jake, stay here with your mommy and don't anger her, or
I won't spare you."
Jake was very indignant. He would never anger Mama.
Rosalie immediately spoke up for him. "Theo, don't say that. He doesn't anger
me. He's great and even takes good care of Chelsea. He's such a good kid, so don't be so fierce to him."
"Alright, I won't be fierce to him," Theodore said, his tone immediately softening when he spoke to Rosalie. "I'll be off, then."
