Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 342 Cause
These past few days, it's been Mia in tears and Nathan undergoing treatment. Noah, as the eldest, had been taking care of them both. On top of that, he had to worry about Mom and Brenda and guard against any threats toward his younger
siblings.
At just three and a half years old, he possessed maturity and wisdom unusual for his age.
He never cried for anything. Even with red eyes and a choked voice, he'd quickly regain control of his emotions.
But now, gazing at his mother, he could hold back no longer.
All his strength crumbled at this moment, and he allowed himself to be a child again, releasing his pent-up emotions in his mother's embrace.
Sadie's heart ached for him as she continuously kissed Noah's head, gently comforting him. "Don't be scared, Noah. Mommy's here now, and I won't leave again."
It took a while for Noah's emotions to settle. Taking a deep breath, he looked up at Sadie. "Mommy, what actually happened? Where have you been these last two days? Why couldn't I reach you? Did someone hurt you? Were you bullied?" "I'm perfectly fine, sweetie."
While dabbing his tears with a tissue, Sadie explained with a catch in her voice.
"I was at work when I got a call that Brenda had fallen sick and fainted. I rushed to the hospital to take care of her. By the time I was able to come for you, I was twenty minutes late. When I reached the corner of Fountain Avenue, you were all gone. I've been searching for you ever since."
"Brenda fainted? What happened to her?" Noah asked anxiously.
"Brenda is sick, but one of my doctor friends is taking care of her now. She has been receiving treatment. Don't worry," Sadie told him as she caressed his handsome little face. "Everything's all right now, Noah. Mommy's back, and I'm not going anywhere. Go to sleep, and I'll make breakfast for you in the morning after I sort things out with the teachers and the policemen."
"Okay," Noah nodded obediently. "You go ahead, Mommy. Just make sure you get some rest later."
"I will." Sadie kissed Noah one more time and left the room quietly.
Closing the door behind her, Sadie pulled Mr. Brooks and Miss Bell into her room to enquire about the details.
Mr. Brooks explained that the school staff had been frantic when the children went missing, and they had been searching everywhere and yet found no trace at all. They reported it to the police station, only to replace out that Sadie had already done so. They tried contacting her, but her phone was unreachable, and they had no choice but to await news from the policemen.
It was at six o'clock tonight that she received a call from the policemen informing her that the children were found and asking her to come to the Mount Sino Hospital. It was only at the hospital that they learned what had happened: the children were walking home from school when Nathan, in pursuit of a cat, darted into the woods and out onto another street, where he was struck by a luxury car. Fortunately, the car's owner took them to the hospital for treatment. Then, Andrew showed up with a wad of cash, asking them to take care of the kids for the night.
At this point, Mr. Brooks hurriedly chimed in, "Actually, taking care of the kids is something we ought to do without expecting anything in return. We would have done it wholeheartedly even without the money, but the guys from VIC Group insisted on paying, so we just..."
"It's fine, VIC Group is loaded with wealth. Why shouldn't you take it?" Sadie was rather straightforward. "Keep it. It's not my money anyway. But do you know who caused the accident?"
"On our way back, we chatted with some paramedics and found out it was Mr. Clemens from VIC Group," Miss Bell whispered.
Sadie's face turned pale with shock. It was Mr. Clemens who had hit Nathan and then took them to the hospital!
What a coincidence!
Was it truly just a coincidence, or was there something more?
