Chapter 887

“Don’t talk about this in front of the child,” Elizabeth pursed her lips and firmly withdrew her hand. Alexander’s eyes instantly filled with sorrow. At that moment, the door to the emergency room opened. The little boy immediately jumped down, not forgetting to grab Elizabeth’s arm. Elizabeth stood up with him and stood in front of the doctor.

“The patient is fine, just passed out from excessive blood loss. He’ll be transferred to a room soon, and you can go handle the admission.”

Elizabeth nodded, “Got it, thank you.”

She wasn’t too worried to begin with, as she had seen the wound and knew it wasn’t serious. The little boy looked up at Elizabeth and asked, “Is my dad okay now?”

Elizabeth squatted down and hugged the little boy, “He’s fine. You’ll see your dad soon. What’s your name?”

“My name is Aubrey Hagen.” He tilted his head, wrapped his arms around Elizabeth’s neck, and nestled into her embrace, being very well-behaved.

Elizabeth raised an eyebrow and repeated his name, “Aubrey.” “Good boy.” She smiled, extremely gently.

Alexander could only stand quietly to the side, looking at his hand that had just been pushed away. He recalled Elizabeth’s calm expression when she said, “Don’t talk about this.” When would Elizabeth finally forgive him? It remained a mystery.

Elizabeth arranged for Aubrey’s dad to be admitted and hired a caregiver. During their conversation, Aubrey mentioned that his mom was gone, and it was just him and his dad at home. Elizabeth thought she had done enough.

However, Aubrey clung to Elizabeth a bit. When she was about to leave, he held onto the corner of her clothes, looking pitiful. “What about me?” he asked, teary-eyed.

Elizabeth squatted down, “You stay here with your dad. If you’re hungry, go to a nurse or the caregiver looking after your dad.” She had already made all the arrangements.

“But what if they’re not nice to me?” The little boy’s tears fell again, looking very aggrieved.

“They will be nice to you, don’t worry. I’ll come to see you when I have time, okay?” Elizabeth gently comforted him.

Although Aubrey didn’t want Elizabeth to leave, he was sensible and didn’t cling to her since they had only met once. He took two steps back and waved at Elizabeth and Alexander.

Seeing this, Elizabeth’s heart ached. Aubrey was such a good boy. “I’ll come to see you when I have time, be good.”

Aubrey nodded. Elizabeth looked back every few steps, still worried about Aubrey.

“Alright, I’ll have someone to take care of him,” Alexander sighed.

Elizabeth frowned, “I’ve already hired a caregiver.”

“Then what are you still worried about?”

“I just like him,” Elizabeth stopped in front of the elevator.

Alexander remained silent. Elizabeth glanced at him, “Mr. Tudor, your heart is like stone.”

“My heart is like stone?” he chuckled.

“It always has been,” Elizabeth looked away. Alexander didn’t argue. In Elizabeth’s eyes, he was made of stone.

The private hospital was very quiet, and there shouldn’t have been any outsiders. Elizabeth was just puzzled as to how Aubrey’s dad got hurt in the hospital. The hospital knew about it and did nothing. Could it be that Aubrey’s dad was involved in something shady?

The elevator door opened, interrupting Elizabeth’s thoughts. She and Alexander exited the elevator one after the other. As they approached Lily’s room, they saw two bodyguards standing at the door. It seemed that the last incident had a significant impact on Alexander; he was being very cautious.
