Chapter 1459
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Everyone was surprised, and when they turned around, they saw Noah sprawled on Jayleneâs bed, struggling to get up.
The scream came from Jaylene.
Her complexion was already somewhat pale when they came in, but now it had become ghostly.
After all, Noah was eleven years old. Although he had not hit puberty yet and was only about four feet nine, he weighed around a hundred pounds. Leighton had thrown him directly onto Jayleneâs stomach.
Jaylene was already a very skinny person, and the impact nearly crushed her internal organs.
She arched like a shrimp and clutched her stomach in pain while groaning.
Darcie was shocked. She immediately grabbed Noah and dragged him off the bed. âWhat are you doing?!â she yelled.
She would have pushed Noah to the ground if Keegan did not catch Noah in time.
Noah seemed terrified, as he stood in front of Keegan with a pale face, trembling in fear.
Darcie held onto Jaylene, and her face was filled with concern. âJaylene, are you okay? Where does it hurt?â
Jaylene clutched her abdomen and even her lips had turned pale. She could not speak at all.
Leighton rubbed Noahâs head and asked, âWhatâs up with you? Why did you jump on her?â
Noah responded softly with teary eyes, âI was just too nervous to check on her, and I tripped because I ran too fast. n He looked remorseful, as tears streamed down his face and his voice Wenham, I didnât mean to do that. Did I hurt Jaylene?â
Darcie spoke sternly. âHow could you be on the bed if you tripped? Did you trip or intentionally jump on her? She was still unconscious!â
Leighton chimed in flatly, âWell, sheâs awake now, right? She might probably still be unconscious if it werenât for my brother. Sheâs been unconscious for so long, and she could suffer from oxygen deprivation to the brain. We didnât even ask you to pay us for treating her. How could you be so rude to him?â
Darcie was so infuriated that her lips trembled. âAre you suggesting that I should thank him for jumping onto my daughter? What kind of twisted logic is that?â
Noah cried even louder. âAunty Darcie, I really didnât mean to dothat. Boo-hooâ¦â
Wenham frowned. âChildren can be very clumsy at times. Iâm do that. Look at how frightened you made him.â
Darcieâs expression turned ugly. âJaylene just came out of the emergency room and he did that to her, yet I canât even scold him?â
Wenham thought that Darcie was being unusually harsh today. She would normally be very tolerant of her subordinates making mistakes at work, so he could not figure out why she was being so rough on Noah.
He was about to say something, but Jaylene finally got over the pain and said hoarsely with a pale face, âMom, Iâm okay. Let it go.â
Her tone was filled with grievance, and her sickly appearance made her look extremely vulnerable.
She was the daughter that Wenham had raised for twenty years, after all. Wenham could not bear to see her in a state like that, as he turned to Trevor and said, âGo get the doctor.â
âOkay,â Trevor responded and left the ward.
Darcieâs heart broke, as she looked at Jaylene. âDonât speak if youâre not feeling well. The doctor will come and check on you soon,â she said softly.
