My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1512

Could something have happened to Julien?

Vanessa panicked when she thought of the possibility that something might have happened to Julien, which explained his absence. Her hand, which was about to feed Lawrie, shook violently, and the water spilled onto the quilt. She said in a panic, "Lawrie, are you ok? Did I scald you?"

"Mommy, don't worry. I'm fine," Lawrie did not understand what was wrong with her. He only knew that his mother seemed to be very afraid. Could it be that she was worried about his surgery? He quickly hugged Vanessa and said, "Mommy, don't be afraid. I will be very brave. I won't let you worry about me."

"Lawrie..." Vanessa felt so useless, having to be comforted by such a young child at this time. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, "I will wait for you right outside the operating theater. Lawrie, don't be afraid."

"Mommy, my illness will be cured after the operation. So I am not worried at all," Lawrie was still young, so he didn't know what the operation meant. He didn't know what the risks were, nor did he know that there was a possibility of relapsing. He thought that as long as he had an operation, he could live normally like other children.

"Yes, after the operation, your condition will be cured. Again, I will be right outside waiting for you, okay?" Vanessa stroked Lawrie's head and said gently. As of then, she really wished that Julien was here. She hoped that he would show up before Lawrie's surgery so that he could pat Lawrie on the head and tell him, "Lawrie, don't be afraid. Mom and dad will be waiting for you here."

However, Julien did not show up even after Lawrie had begun his operation.

Where on earth did he go?

Vanessa did not know, nor did she have the spare time to think about where Julien was.

Now that Lawrie was in the operating theater, she didn't know how his surgery was going, nor if he was able to take the pain and discomfort... The more she thought about it, the more worried Vanessa felt. For a moment, she was so nervous that she felt that she couldn't breathe.

She clenched her fists and tried her best to calm down. However, no matter how hard she tried, it was useless. It was only until a soft voice called out and gradually reduced the fear in her heart, "Aunt Vanessa!"

"Larry, you're here," Although Larry's presence was still unable to wash away all her worries, just him being here right now was her savior. She needed someone to accompany her desperately and to tell her that Lawrie would be just fine.

Not only was Larry here, but his mother was right behind him. Vanessa had seen their family of three before. Their family picture was so beautiful and warm that she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to. She opened her mouth and wanted to say hello to Larry's mother, but she didn't know how to address her.

Karen Joy seemed to have seen through Vanessa's embarrassment. She smiled and said, "Hello Miss Love, I'm Larry's mother, also Julien's sister. My name is Karen Joy Kyle. You can call me by my name, Karen Joy, or you can call me Mrs. Collins, as you please."

Compared to Miss Kyle, Karen Joy preferred to be called Mrs. Collins by outsiders. Everyone was aware that Lionel followed his mother's surname, Collins. Hence, calling her Mrs. Collins was a way of telling others that she was her beloved Lionel's wife.

Karen Joy was older than Vanessa, so Vanessa found it slightly inappropriate to call her by her name directly. Therefore, Vanessa chose the second option and said, "Mrs. Collins, hello!"
