Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 318 Micah and the Silly Bird
Regret and anger churned within him as he recalled the unintentional harm he had caused Sadie. That foolish woman, why did she throw herself in harm's way to shield Mason? Would she forsake her own life for that man?
Now, here she was, collapsed in pain at home. If he hadn't arrived in time, she might have died unnoticed!
The more Micah thought about it, the angrier he became.
"Mama, scared," Coco shivered and curled up on Sadie, mimicking human speech as parrots do.
"Shut up," Micah barked. "Keep making noise, and I'll pluck you bare!"
Coco, weeping softly, nestled deeper into Sadie's hair as if to hide.
They soon reached the hospital where Dahlia worked.
Dahlia, with her medical team, was already waiting at the entrance. As Micah carried Sadie out of the car, they rushed to meet them, immediately starting the examination.
Following close behind, Micah prodded anxiously, "What's wrong with her? Why did she faint all of a sudden? Could there be something else?"
"I've checked thoroughly; there's nothing else," Dahlia reported. "But Miss Roth has been through a constant cycle of injuries and illnesses over the past couple of months. She's run down, and Brenda's illness today took an emotional toll, which might also affect her."
"Do a full check-up, now."
"Right away."
They wheeled Sadie into a room, and Dahlia took charge of her care.
Micah paced outside, racked with concern. Coco flew in circles in the room, but soon, with its injured wing faltering, it settled onto his shoulder.
He turned and glared coldly at Coco.
Coco trembled and shielded its face with its wings, not daring to look but also not flying away.
It seemed to understand that although this "bad man" was fierce, he was a protector when it counted most.
So maybe he was on its side.
Micah frowned in disdain but didn't shoo Coco away.
After all, it was Sadie's pet. If that silly woman woke up and didn't see it, she'd worry and panic, possibly even hampering her recovery. Fine, he'd let it be.
In the worst-case scenario, he'd get a new suit.
Micah suddenly remembered the first time they met when that darn bird had shamelessly dropped a bomb right onto his clothes. He warned Coco with an icy threat, "You do that again, and you're dead meat, understand?"
Trembling with fear, Coco glanced at Micah, her feathers ruffled, a clear testament to her terror in the face of his intimidating presence. Suddenly, her nerves gave way, and with a soft plop, an unfortunate, steaming gift landed directly on Micah's shoulder.
Micah was livid, his face turning an ominous shade of green as his fists clenched tightly.
"Mama, mama..."
In a frantic flutter, Coco flew off, desperately seeking her 'mama,' but bumbled like a headless chicken right into the door and then tumbled to the floor.
Micah stared at the silly creature, speechless and bemused. No wonder they say pets take after their owners.
This bird, just like Sadie, is unbelievably ridiculous!
Carefully, he slid out of his blazer, avoiding the mess, and draped it over a nearby chair. Bending down, he picked up Coco.
Coco squawked in its mimicry of human speech, "Bad man, mama, scared..."
Coco mistook his intentions, flapping wildly in fear, pecking at Micah's hand with her sharp little beak.
Unfazed, Micah scrunched his blazer into a makeshift nest and placed Coco inside it. He pointed a stern finger and warned, "Stay put; don't make a move, or I swear I'll wring your neck. Got it?" Coco shook uncontrollably, gazing at him, cautiously nodding its head.
It was resigned to its fate.
