"Thanks." Micah said gratefully.

Annika ignored him and headed straight to replace Sadie.

"Wasn't the legendary Micah supposed to be super aloof?" a female bodyguard whispered. "He doesn't seem like it."

"His aloofness is totally crushed by Ms. James," Annika said proudly, raising an eyebrow. "No matter how powerful he is outside, he has to behave in front of her."

"That's awesome. Let him get a taste of his own medicine. That's what happens when the Clemens mess with Ms. James!"

"Exactly!"

Annika arrived at the medical room. Hubert had already finished examining Mia, prescribed medication, and instructed Paula to prepare the medicine daily. He then said to Sadie, "Let me check you out." "I'm not in a hurry." Sadie said, thinking about Arya. "I have a subordinate who got shot protecting me earlier. Can you take a look at her?"

"Of course," Hubert said. "Gunshot wounds are simple. As long as no internal organs are damaged, I can prescribe some medicine, and she'll be fine after taking it."

"Thank you so much," Sadie said. She immediately ordered, "Take Dr. Henry to check on Arya."

"Yes. Dr. Henry, this way, please."

Hubert left with Percy, while Paula stayed to take care of Mia.

Sadie instructed Annika, "The servants and bodyguards here don't know anything about medicine. You need to bring in some reliable medical staff to help out, or Paula and Percy won't be able to handle it." "Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Annika nodded and was about to leave when Sadie asked, "Has Micah left?"

"Not yet," Annika whispered, glancing at the sleeping Mia. "He's been sitting in the living room for over an hour."

"I'll go check." Sadie went to the living room and saw Micah still sitting there drinking coffee. She coldly questioned, "Why are you still here?"

"Did Dr. Henry finish examining Mia? What did he say?" Micah stood up to greet her.

"It's done," Sadie said flatly. "He's prescribed some medicine. Mia just needs to take it on time every day."

"How long will it take for Mia to get better?" Micah asked urgently.

"It's just the beginning. Dr. Henry won't give a definite time," Sadie said seriously. "It might take some time on the medication to see the effect."

"That's true." Micah nodded. "I trust Dr. Henry's skills."

"Yeah." Sadie was also trying to reassure herself.

"I see you're short on medical staff here. Want me to send some people over?" Micah asked, trying to get closer.

"No need." Sadie didn't want to keep talking to him and turned to go upstairs. "You can leave now."

"If I leave now, Mia will cry when she wakes up and doesn't see me." Micah immediately blocked her. "And Nathan will be disappointed. Maybe Noah will act calm, but he's just pretending to be strong." "So what?" Sadie looked at him coldly.

"I think," Micah said tentatively, observing her expression, "during the time Mia is being treated, I should stay here. Of course, I won't cause you any trouble. I can even pay for my meals."

"Get out!" Sadie shouted angrily.

"Is this how you treat guests?" Micah was determined to be shameless this time. "The kids will be sad if they see you treating me like this."

"Micah, do you have any shame?" Sadie was furious. "When I was at your house, how did the Clemens treat me? I'm only letting it go for the sake of the kids, and you're still pestering me. If you don't leave, I'll have someone throw you out." "I'm doing this for the kids. Don't you want Mia to get better soon?" Micah continued. "Seeing me will make her happy, which will help her recovery. If you don't believe me, you can ask Dr. Henry."
