My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1487

Twenty days... It had been twenty days....

Twenty days flew past since Vanessa last saw Julien. Larry also had not come by the hospital to see Lawrie after that day. Even the rumors about Vanessa online had gradually faded away. The netizens were interested in other news now and no one paid Vanessa any attention anymore.

Vanessa's life was as peaceful as it used to be. It was as if the things that had happened to her in the past few days had never happened at all.

Before this, Vanessa still had a bit of hope that Julien would occasionally come to the hospital to visit Lawrie and herself. However, as the days went by, she slowly gave up on this idea and told herself to stop hoping.

Before the incident, she had already mentally prepared herself for this - that sooner or later, Julien would leave her. However, now that it was actually happening, she was troubled by sadness. After all, Julien was the man she had once loved wholeheartedly. She once thought of spending the rest of her life with him.

But all that was in the past now.

When Lawrie was done with his infusion, the nurse was about to remove the needle from the back of his hand when she realized something. "Lawrie, I've never seen you cry during this process. You're the bravest child I've ever met. Tell me, why are you so awesome?"

Hearing the beautiful nurse's praise, Lawrie threw himself into Vanessa's arms, face red from shyness. He said softly, "Mommy..."

Vanessa held his small body and stroked his little head. She smiled and encouraged him. "Lawrie, the nurse is praising you. Just tell her what you want to say. Don't be shy."

Lawrie was sensitive and introverted for many reasons. He was not very good at communicating with strangers and would have his guard high up around them most of the time. It was his belief that anyone who showed up before he and his mother may be someone who was there to take her away. Therefore, he preferred not to talk too much to the nurse cared for him.

Lawrie looked at Vanessa. After hearing Vanessa encouraging him, Lawrie looked at the nurse and very seriously answered the nurse's question, "Because I am a boy and boys don't cry easily. I don't want my Mommy to worry about me."

The nurse praised him again, "Lawrie, you're so thoughtful at such a young age. How wonderful."

Lawrie did not speak again. Vanessa guided him patiently. "Lawrie, are you a polite child?"

Lawrie nodded.

Vanessa asked again, "Then what should you do after receiving a compliment?"

Lawrie was not great at interacting with strangers, but to avoid making his Mommy sad, he finally gave in and said, "Thank you."

"Why, you're welcome. You're a really great kid," the nurse emphasized again as she collected the infusion bag. "Miss Love, Lawrie's transfusion is done for today. Get him to rest early tonight and please call us if you need anything."

"Sure," Vanessa saw the nurse out, wanting to ask more about Lawrie's condition. Unexpectedly, a woman suddenly rushed over and hugged Vanessa. She burst into tears and said, "Vanessa, I've been looking for you for so long. I finally found you."
