Caroline shook her head, her face terribly pale. Naomi might have been dead now if she hadnât
acted fast before.
She glanced at Naomi, noticing a scary cut on her arm. Quickly getting up, Caroline urged, âWe
need to go to the hospital, Naomi!â
Naomi looked at her arm following Carolineâs eyes. Her face was calm as if she couldnât sense any
pain. âNo need. Itâs not a big deal.â
Caroline said, âItâs not nothing! Come, Iâm taking you to the hospitalââ
Naomi signed in and went into the emergency room. She got over ten stitches on her arm. Then,
she had an Xâray that found a broken elbow.
Caroline felt very guilty. âI will provide paid medical leave for you so you can recuperate at home.
Naomi. I will remember what you did today. Thank youâ
Naomi muttered nonchalantly, âYouâve already thanked me repeatedly, Ms. Shenton. I donât need
to rest, so I donât want the medical leave.â
âNo! You canât go to work like this,â Caroline said.
Naomi said, âYou canât stop me from working from home.â
Workaholic⦠The word emerged in Carolineâs mind.
She had never encountered someone as dedicated to work as Naomi. Despite this, Naomi proved to
be a competent assistant, easing her workload.
Unable to convince Naomi, she suggested, âYou could work from home. Take your time deciding if
you want to return to the company.â
Naomi nodded.
Caroline accompanied Naomi to pick up her prescription and then returned with her to the company
after lunch. Following that, Caroline instructed a bodyguard to escort Naomi home.
Paige looked at Caroline upon her return to the hospital. âCarol, what took you so long?â
Caroline shared the story with Paige, her smile bitter.
Paigeâs eyes widened in shock. âMy god, is someone trying to hurt you again?â

Caroline shook her head. âNo, the driver passed away on the scene.â
âOh no, oh no, youâre making me have scary thoughts because of you,â Paige pulled her neck back in
fear, looking at Caroline, who seemed amused.
âWaterâ¦â
Tylerâs raspy, childish voice made Caroline stop laughing.
Caroline and Paige looked at the bed in unison and found that Tyler had already awakened.
Paige shrieked and rushed forward âOh, my godson! Youâre awake at last.â
Tyler looked at Paige in contempt. âYouâre dramaticâ
Paige glared at Tyler and said ferociously, âYou ungrateful brat!â
Tyler shifted his gaze to his mother, who was pouring water for him with tears in her eyes. âIâm sorry for
making you worried, Mommy,â he said.
Caroline shook her head and sniffed She got some water and put the straw in Tylerâs mouth. âIâm okay,
and Iâm strong when youâre safe.â
Tyler drank the water while Paige reminded him, âDrink slowly so you donât choke.â
Tyler coughed as soon as Paigeâs voice faded.
Paige hastily soothed Tylerâs chest. âLook at you. I told you to slow down!â
âIt was you⦠You jinxed it.â
âAlright, I talked too much and jinxed it.â
Carolineâs sorrow gradually faded when she saw Tyler teasing them in good spirits.
At night in Bayview Villa, Liora sat in Scottâs embrace, happily swinging her legs as she called Axel.
âTy is awake, Axel!â
âThatâs awesome. You will be seeing Ty soon.â Axel was joyous but not very skilled in expressing it with
his words.
Liora heaved a sigh. âI miss you so much, Axel. Mommy didnât allow me to go to school for the last two
days.â
