Female Novel
Chapter 864
While she was talking, Sasha’s mother moved the bucket out with some difficulty. I walked over to help
her and asked in an uncertain tone, “Do you drink this water?”
She nodded and replied, “It’s actually not that different from tap water. Once you boil it, it is safe to
drink. A bucket of water outside costs me eight, so I can buy more meat for Renee with that money.”
The words came out of her mouth very naturally, as if that was how things were supposed to be. I was
taken aback for a moment, feeling a little sorry for them. Not knowing what else to say, I helped her
carry the bucket onto the water dispenser and briefly explained what she needed to give us to apply for
the fund. Subsequently, I left the hospital.
However, instead of going home, I went to the mall to get some clothes and supplies for children’s use,
then headed back to the hospital. However, I did not see Sasha’s mother. As soon as I entered
Renee’s room, I could see she was up. She looked at me happily and said, “Ms. Stovall, you’re here.”
I nodded, then helped her put on the thick socks that I had just bought. “Where’s your grandma? Where
did she go?”
The child thought for a while before she replied, “Uncle Shane came over just now and wanted to take
Grandma’s money, so she ran to the police station, probably to let them arrest him.”
I frowned upon hearing her words. Previously, Joseph had said that Sasha had a brother who was
addicted to gambling. He had probably come to ask for some of Sasha’s compensation money. Clearly,
the only thing that mattered was gambling in his eyes. The family was already in such a terrible
situation, yet he still came to demand money.
Noticing a phone number on the water dispenser, I made a call to the company. Soon, someone
delivered some water over. Since Renee probably had to stay in the hospital for quite a long time, I
bought a few more coupons of mineral water for the water dispenser and handed them to her. “When
there’s no more water in the dispenser, get Grandma to call the company to deliver more. You’ll only
need to give them this coupon, okay?”
She nodded. Although she was young, she understood my words.
I chatted with her a little longer until she fell asleep. Then, I headed for Moore Residence since
Summer was on vacation recently, so she was probably hanging around with Emery. As Ashton
constantly pampered her with many new clothes and toys, there were many items that Summer
typically got bored of after only a short period of time.
Previously, I had always gotten someone to pack them up and send them over to the orphanage.
However, I planned to go back and pack some up to give to Renee today.
When I arrived at Moore Residence, Cameron and Summer were swimming in the hot spring pool in
the yard. Summer played with a duck toy while dressed in a pink swimsuit. On the other hand,
Cameron was making a call, seemingly to get someone over to give her a spa treatment.
Noticing that Emery was nowhere in sight, I turned to the maid beside me and asked, “Where’s
Emery?”
“Ms. Moore and Mr. Zane took Xavier to J City because his grandmother wanted to see her grandson.
Since it’s the holidays, they’re staying for a few more days!”
I had almost forgotten that on the second day after I returned from A City, Hunter told Emery that he
had already booked tickets to J City. I had not thought much of it then and only recalled it now.
“Help me go pack up some of Summer’s clothes, shoes, and toys that she doesn’t normally wear or
use. I’ll take them with me later!”
The maid was puzzled. “Are you sending it to the orphanage?”
I shook my head. “No. My friend’s daughter is around the same age as Summer, so I thought that since
Summer doesn’t really wear many of her clothes, it’d be a waste to leave them around. I’ll be going
over to visit her later, so I’ll bring some with me then.”
The maid nodded in reply.
Just then, Summer noticed my presence and came out of the pool, wrapping herself in a bath towel.
She said, “Mommy, have you been busy lately? You’ve not been coming to see me. Granny says that
you have a lot of work. Is that true?”
I nodded and smiled. “Yeah, Mommy’s been busy lately, but I’ve been missing you. Look, I took time off
to see you, didn’t I?” As I spoke, I dried her wet hair with a towel.
Just then, Cameron came over with a towel wrapped around her as well. “How has Fuller Corporation
been? Did anything happen?”
I shook my head. “No, it’s fine!”
She nodded and replied, “Since you rarely come here and there are swimsuits in the house, why don’t
you go take a dip in the pool? The hot water helps to improve blood circulation and is good for the
body. Ashton said that your body is always cold regardless of the season, so I think you should soak in
the hot springs more often. Also, I’ve called someone to give me a spa treatment later. I think you
should join me.”
I shook my head and replied, “I’ve something on later, I…”
“Don’t reject me. Your body is what’s most important. I heard that Ashton recently purchased a house in
the northern part of the city. That area’s full of natural hot springs, so he probably did that to let you
take more baths in the spring water there. I asked a doctor some time ago, and he said that as long asnovelbin
you take good care of your body, you can still get pregnant. I know this has always been a hurdle for
you, but we have to look forward, my dear. We have to face our lives with hope, don’t you agree?”
Unable to refute any of her words, I could only nod in reply. By then, the maid had already brought over
a swimsuit for me.
