You're The Best Medicine For Me
Chapter 19: The Kids Had Met Their Father Officially

The man had a towering height of 189 cam and was dressed in a sky-blue shirt, but a long line of blood had streaked across his left arm while his blood had run through his fingers and dripped onto the grass. His features were extremely captivating, yet his complexion was sickly pallid, but most of all, his face...

When Jacob had perceived that the countenance which he could only see in magazines had materialized before his eyes, he was struck dumb on the spot.

However...

Before he had managed to come back to his senses, the man before him had slumped heavily to the ground.

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

"Shut your mouth!" Jacob hurriedly turned his head and covered Emma's mouth as his eyes swept across the surroundings, "Do you want to call Mommy over?" "Mm, mm..." Emma raised her hand and pointed at Bryan's direction as she blinked with excitement.

It's... it's Daddy!

Jacob removed his hand that was covering her mouth and swiftly turned around to look at the man not far off from them with his brows furrowed deeply.

It had never occurred to him that he would be able to bump into Daddy when he was just out here picking up his ball. He was not prepared to meet him yet, plus he looked like he was badly injured.

"I'm going to get Mommy." Emma got up on her feet frantically and was about to run back to the villa, but Jacob hurriedly caught her by the arm and said, "You can't."

"Why?" Emma turned her head and stared at him with a puzzled look.

When Emma had witnessed Bryan collapsing right in front of her eyes, her first instinct was to get Mommy here so that she could bring Daddy back to the villa for a proper checkup, plus she was extremely worried that Daddy would die here seeing that he had so much blood on his body when she had just gotten to meet him.

Now that she had been halted by Jacob, her eyes started to well up as she said anxiously, "I know that you don't like Daddy because he has caused Mommy to suffer a lot, Jacob, but, but you can't just stand by and let him be in that state. What if he were to bleed to death here?"

"Who says that I'm going to leave him like that?" Jacob glared at her ferociously and added, "Let's take a look at how he's doing first."

"What, us?"

"What are you afraid of?" Jacob took her by the hand and trotted towards Bryan.

When they had reached his side, they stooped down at the same time to check on his condition.

Emma put her hand under Bryan's nose to try to detect his breathing, and Jacob promptly rolled his eyes at her action, "He's not dead yet. Look, he is only wounded in the arm." "Why did he collapse then when he had caught sight of us?"

"How would I know?"

"Why shouldn't we get Mommy?"

"Mommy doesn't want to meet Daddy yet for the time being, so if she were to replace out that Daddy's here, she would have called 120 straight away. Don't you want to stay with him for a while?"

"I do, but, somehow I don't as I feel bad for Mommy." Emma pouted her lips and frowned as she stared at Bryan with an irresolute look on her face, but when she had set her sight on the wound on his arm, she did not have the heart to just stand idly by, "But I feel pitiful for Daddy too."

Jacob gazed at the cut on Bryan's arm as he pondered for a moment while resting his chin upon his hand, and his eyes lit up soon after when an idea had popped into his mind. He looked up at Emma and said, "Go back to the villa and try to enter Mommy's room secretly to get the disinfectant fluid, medical grade cotton, gauze and the medication for trauma injuries from the first aid kit and bring them here."

Emma's eyes glinted with excitement as well, and after she had made an OK gesture with her hand, she stood up and sped towards the direction of the villa.

Jacob stared at her disappearing back figure as he let out a deep sigh with mixed feelings.

It was not that he had actually disliked Daddy, but he had indeed resented him for not being able to protect Mommy when she needed him by her side. If he had shown up timely, Mommy would not have to go through the experience of narrowly escaping from death.

He turned his head and reached out his hands to tug at Bryan's arm so that he could flip him over, but he soon realized that he could not move his body at all.

He put forth all his strength and pushed him again with all his might as he soliloquized, "You're too heavy, Daddy."

Bryan's body had flipped over with ease at this moment, and Jacob thought that it was his strength that had turned him over. When he had plumped down beside Bryan, a husky voice suddenly rang in his ears "What did you call me just now?"

Jacob raised his head slowly in response to that voice, and when he had noticed that Bryan whom had unknowingly sat up was staring at him with his piercing eyes, his body went frigid in an instant...00000
