Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 58

Kenneth just got back from Baykeep, and before he could even read the countless messages on his phone, he got a call from Thea.

“Kenneth, I don't know what happened to my father, but he suddenly passed out. My mother fainted too when she saw him. I don't know what I'd do if something were to happen to them. What should I do?” asked Thea in a broken voice.

When Kenneth saw that his phone was running out of battery, he knew he did not have the time for comforting. “Where are you now?

“We've just reached Skyline Hospital.”

“I'll be right over. My phone is going to be —” Before Kenneth could finish his sentence, his phone screen went black.

“What's wrong, Mr. Hamilton?” inquired Fabian, who was just in front of Kenneth.

“Go straight to Skyline Hospital.”

Fabian then nodded in response before steering the car in the right direction.

When they finally reached the hospital, Kenneth handed his phone to Fabian before getting out of the car. “Charge it for me.

Meanwhile, Thea waited for Kenneth in the corridor, sitting alone.

“What happened, Thea?” inquired Kenneth as he approached the woman.

As soon as Thea saw Kenneth, she threw herself at him. “What do I do, Kenneth? I'm so scared. The doctor told me that my father might have a malignant tumor. I don't know what to do if something happens to him.”

After listening to Thea, Kenneth removed the woman's arms from him. “Just calm down and tell me everything slowly.”

Thea was already drenched in tears then. “I can't calm down right now. I really don't know what to do, Kenneth. I just... What should I do?”

After some thought, Kenneth replied, “I got it. You just wait here for me, and I'm going to speak with the Director.”

Staring at Kenneth, Thea eventually decided to trust the man and nodded in agreement.

Not long after Kenneth went upstairs, he returned with the Director and all the authoritative physicians.

Thea was waiting anxiously by the door before Kenneth appeared in her sight again. It was as if the man was her only hope.

“Don't worry, Mr. Hamilton. I've already contacted the best oncologist; you'll get the result at the latest by tomorrow,” assured the Director.

“Thank you, Director. Sorry to bother you at this hour.”

“Nonsense, Mr. Hamilton. You can come to me whenever you need me. If there's nothing else, I'll be on my way.”

“Sure.”

After sending the Director away, Thea approached Kenneth once again. “Kenneth...”

“It’s okay. Your father's condition has stabilized, but we'll only be getting the results for the diagnosis tomorrow,” explained Kenneth while looking at the woman.

“Do you think he's going to be fine?” inquired Thea, looking back at Kenneth.

“Thea, just try not to think too much about it before we get the results,” advised Kenneth.

Thea nodded in response. “If it weren't for you today...”

“You helped me when I needed it most. This is the least I can do.”

“Then, do you think you could stay here with me tonight, Kenneth? I'm really scared,” asked Thea as she continued to look at the man. “You're the only person I know here.”

Kenneth slightly furrowed his eyebrows while nodding. “Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere until we get the results.”

It was only then Thea finally smiled. “I appreciate that. Thank you, Kenneth.”

“Now let's go see your father.”

In response to that, Thea nodded gladly.

After Harry's condition stabilized, he was transferred from the emergency room to the general ward.
