374 Chapter 373
At that moment, the Murphy family was in total disarray, and everyone rushed over to Bobby immediately.
Christina was splattered with filth across her face, which unsettled her completely, but because it was from her son, she could bear the extreme disgust.
She hurriedly picked up a tissue and wiped herself clean.
Moving on, Richard also reached his son’s side,
padding his back and asked, “What happened? What’s wrong?”
Bobby, covered in tears and snot, felt only pain and sorrow; he wanted to cry, but vomit spewed out instead.
Not until he felt like he’d emptied everything in his stomach did he start to feel better.
Although Christina had already cleaned herself off by then, she still felt as if there was a lingering smell on her, yet she looked anxiously at the family doctor.

“What’s wrong with Bobby?”
The family doctor examined Bobby carefully and then asked, “Did Bobby cry today at the kindergarten?”
He glanced at the medical report in his hand; Bobby had a checkup six months ago, and there weren’t any
issues.
Hearing the doctor’s question, Christina frowned and looked at Bobby, who had calmed down by then.
Bobby looked listless and very uncomfortable; he lay on the couch, clutching his stomach. “Mommy, I think I’m a little hungry.”
Christina immediately said, “I’ll ask Sara to make you something to eat right away.”

“I don’t want food; I want chips!” Bobby started fussing. “I want chips! Today at school, the teacher wo me have any and even made me stand as a punishment. They made me stand outside, and still wouldn’t give me any even when I cried. The teacher is so mean; I don’t want to go to school
anymore!”
Upon hearing this, Christina’s face instantly darkene “They made you stand as a punishment?”

The family doctor said. “That explains it. It was quite windy outside today. If he was crying out there, he must have caught a chill in his stomach. That’s probably what caused the vomiting. It shouldn’t be anything serious; we can keep an eye on him.”
Although the Murphy family always placed great importance on the child, the fact was that Bobby had grown up and he often spat up milk as a baby. They had taken him everywhere seeking medical advice, but they never discovered any problems.
As he got older, he occasionally vomited as well, so Richard and Bobby’s grandmother didn’t take it too
seriously.
Only Christina, for some reason, remembered Keera’s words, “…If he starts vomiting, you must take it
seriously.”
This thought barely crossed her mind before Christina shook her head immediately, thinking she must be
overreacting!
How could she suddenly believe what Keera said?
She wasn’t a doctor!

eating dinner, and watched as the child fell asleep before leaving the room.
As soon as she came out, her expression turned gloomy.
Just then, the butler approached and said, “Madam, there are guests from the Olsen family.”
Christina walked briskly into the living room, only to see her third brother, James Olsen standing there.
James was tall and well-built, with a similar
appearance to Ellis, except without Ellis’s enchanting aura. Instead, he had a more somber and sinister air
about him.
He worked for the Olsen Group, overseeing the project department.
Ellis often smiled, but he looked like a demon king causing chaos in the world.
James, however, was different; although he had a ste look, Christina knew that he despised evil and was always very good to her and Christina.
Therefore, upon seeing him, Christina’s eyes immediately welled up with tears.

James came today to deliver an invitation to the Murphy family.
For some unknown reason, the Olsen family was to hold a grand banquet a week later. The specific reason was unclear, but their third uncle had assigned tasks to
each of the brothers.
The Murphy family, being in-laws, definitely needed to be treated with proper courtesy.
But… what was wrong with Christina? She looked off.
James immediately frowned. “What happened?”
Christina didn’t speak; she didn’t know how to begin…
Richard said, “What happened? Bobby was bullied at school! The new director made him stand crying in the courtyard, blowing in the cold wind. The kid just came home and threw up!”
Upon hearing this, James was startled. “The director of the kindergarten, isn’t that someone from our Olsen family? Wasn’t Christina in charge?”
Richard then turned his gaze to Christina.
Christina looked down. “No, I think Ellis changed it.”

James frowned. “Who’s the new director?”
“Keera South.”
James had some impression of her; after all, at Ellis’s wedding, she was the bridesmaid. Led on by Christina’s hints, he immediately misunderstood. “Are you saying Ellis gave the position to Keera out of regard for his wife’s feelings?”
Christina said, “It seems like it. Keera is a close friend to Mary, and ever since my brother married her, he doesn’t consider me, his sister, important anymore…”
Her eyes reddened, and this time it wasn’t an act; she
genuinely felt aggrieved.
Christina looked at James. “Would you do the same, James?”
James said, “How could I possibly do that?! No matter what, our family has no daughter, and although you and Victoria are adopted, you’re the same as if you were! I’ve always treated you like a real sister! Don’t underestimate yourself!”
Tears brimmed in Christina’s eyes, and she felt even more moved, “James, before Mary married Ellis, there

doesn’t like me, and I understand that. Now that she’s the hostess of the house, it’s okay for me to suffer
some grievances, but Mary and Keera shouldn’t take it out on the children…”
James frowned. “You can’t suffer grievances either! The daughter of the Olsen family should be cherished like a gem. Don’t worry about this matter, I’ll help you!”
He stood up. “Alright, it’s late today, and Bobby isn’t feeling well, you all should rest early.”
He patted Christina on the shoulder. “Don’t worry. The daughter of the Olsen family cannot be aggrieved, even the adopted ones!”
Leaving these words, he headed straight out the door.
After he left, Christina quietly sighed with relief.
Given Uncle Olsen’s attitude, it seemed he woul acknowledge Keera as his daughter. In that case
