Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1016 The Gentle and Considerate Micah

The next few days were simple but satisfying.

Every morning, the family had breakfast together. Sadie and Mia focused on their treatments while Nathan and Noah attended online classes and trained the pets.

Micah would rush home in the evening to have dinner with the kids and then play with them.

Half a month flew by.

Mia's condition improved a lot. Her once gaunt face became rosy, and her appetite improved. Arya's gunshot wound also healed quite a bit, allowing her to move around now.

Sadie, however, had lost a lot of weight and her strength had diminished.

Micah asked Hubert why Sadie seemed worse after treatment.

Hubert explained that the residual toxins had built up for too long. A thorough treatment was needed to clear them out. So, Sadie's treatment would be more painful and take longer. This current state was just a transitional phase, and she would recover over time.

Although Micah was worried, he didn't say much, only reminding Sadie to rest more.

Sadie didn't appreciate it and remained cold towards him.

She was clear in her mind. She acknowledged his feelings and efforts for the kids, but that didn't mean she would forgive or accept him. These were two separate things.

Micah knew this too.

She was someone who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment. She wouldn't forgive him for the past harm he caused her just because he was devoted to the kids. Earning her forgiveness would take a long time. That night, after putting the kids to bed, Micah was about to go to his room to rest when he saw Annika helping Sadie upstairs.

Sadie was very weak.

Seeing this, Arya was about to help her.

Micah quickly stepped forward, picked Sadie up, and carried her upstairs.

"What are you doing? Put me down!" Sadie angrily pushed him.

"If you want everyone to see this, go ahead and make a fuss," Micah warned in a low voice.

"You" Sadie was angry but didn't resist further.

It was just a few steps to the room. Making a scene on the stairs would attract everyone's attention, which would be awkward. Annika and Arya exchanged a glance and silently stepped back.

Micah carried Sadie to the room and placed her on the bed. Seeing her covered in sweat, he moved to unbutton her shirt. "What are you doing?" Sadie immediately grabbed his hand.

"You need to open your collar, or you'll feel too stuffy."

Micah unbuttoned the top three buttons of her shirt, revealing part of her chest, but he made no inappropriate moves and went straight to the bathroom. "Get out and let Annika come in."

Sadie was already exhausted and didn't want to argue with Micah.

"I know you better than she does." Micah prepared the bathwater and came over to carry Sadie. "Do you want me to help you bathe?"

"Don't touch me." Sadie resisted, pushing him away. "Get out."

"I'm just taking care of you. I won't do anything inappropriate," Micah coaxed her patiently. "Be good, or the kids will worry about you."

Sadie didn't refuse anymore. Mia was almost recovered now and was worried about Sadie. She should try to get better soon so they wouldn't worry.

Micah carried Sadie to the bathroom and then left, closing the door behind him.

Seeing him behave properly, Sadie felt relieved. She took off her clothes and stood under the shower, taking a quick hot shower, then wrapped herself in a towel and went out. Micah hadn't left; he had poured a glass of warm water and placed it by the bedside.

Seeing her come out, he immediately helped her to the bed and handed her the warm water.

Sadie, feeling thirsty, drank the water in a few gulps and then crawled into bed, wanting to sleep.

"Wait a moment."
