Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 144 Just Say It's Your Child

Sadie and Brenda rushed Mia to the emergency room of the children's hospital. It was now 11:40 p.m., and there was still a long line. Sadie was frantic with worry, leaving Brenda holding Mia in the waiting area while she queued to register and complete the admission procedures. "When I left, Noah and Nathan were still awake; I wonder how they're doing now."

As Brenda offered water to Mia, she couldn't help but worry about the two children at home.

"They'll take care of themselves, don't worry." Sadie was anxious as well; the children were only three and a half years old, and although they were a bit healthier, the absence of adults at home left her feeling very uneasy. "I asked Coco to keep an eye on them," Brenda rattled on. "Coco behaved strangely today, stayed in the cage all day, only coming out to keep Mia company after you left."

"Yes, the kids would be happier with Coco around," Sadie said, her eyes fixed anxiously on the long line ahead, uncertain when it would be their turn.

"Ah, in the past, it would have been much easier, just calling a family doctor over. No need for all this fuss," Brenda sighed.

Sadie remembered how the Roth family used to have a personal family physician. Even for serious conditions that required hospitalization, they would go to upscale private hospitals with no need to wait.

Things had changed, people moved on; those days were now a thing of the past...

Sadie suddenly remembered that Dahlia had left her contact information before, mentioning that she could reach out at any time with any health-related concerns.

Sadie hesitated; if she contacted Dahlia, Micah would replace out.

She decided to wait a bit longer.

"Mommy..." Mia began to speak but abruptly stopped as she vomited.

"Oh my..." Brenda hastily wiped Mia clean.

"Mia!" Sadie rushed over, with one hand cleaning up and the other gently patting Mia's back, "Mia, don't be scared, I'm here, Mommy's here."

"Mommy, I feel so bad, wu wu..." Mia's little face was pale, her body limp and without strength as she expelled all the food onto Brenda, her eyes usually bright and lively, now filled with tears...

"Don't be scared, Mia. We are going to see the doctor very soon." After cleaning Mia up, Sadie held her and went to replace a nurse, "Ma'am, my daughter can't take it any longer, could a doctor possibly see us first?"

"It's the change of seasons, prime time for children's flu, and the place is full of sick kids. Everyone has to wait in line, unless there are severe emergencies like shock or choking," the nurse said, too busy to even glance up at Sadie. "But..."

"Please make way."

Sadie was pushed aside by other parents.

Watching the long line ahead, Sadie was almost frantic, what to do, what to do?

"Miss, perhaps we should try another hospital?" Brenda suggested while wiping herself clean with a wet cloth, "We've been waiting for half an hour already, and there's hardly any movement ahead. If we keep waiting like this, Mia won't be able to bear it."

Seeing Mia's complexion in her arms getting worse and worse, and feeling like her heart was being cut by knives, Sadie couldn't care about anything else and quickly dialed Dahlia's number.

The call was answered swiftly: "Miss Roth?"

"Dahlia, I, I have a friend's child who is very sick. We've been waiting too long at the children's emergency department without getting a turn, and the child's condition is quite severe. Could you possibly..."

"Miss Roth, don't worry. Have your friend come to my children's hospital, and I'll attend to them personally."

"Yes, yes, thank you! What's the address?"

"I'll send it to you right away."

After the call, Sadie and Brenda hailed a cab and rushed to Dahlia's hospital.

Luckily, the hospital was only three kilometers away, not far.

In the car, Sadie quietly instructed Brenda, "Brenda, when we get there, say that Mia is your granddaughter..."
