My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1554

Lawrie hid in the corner alone, curled up into a ball. Silvia and Jayden attempted to persuade him but to no avail. In desperation, Silvia brought Larry over so he could keep Lawrie company.

Lawrie did not utter a single word, so Silvia led the conversation. "Lawrie, would you like to play with Larry? If you do, but don't want to talk, just nod gently. Larry will understand."

Lawrie did not respond.

Silvia was very patient with young children. Although her first attempt failed, she continued, "Baby Lawrie, if you hear what I'm saying, please nod your head, is that all right?"

Silvia waited for a moment. Just when she thought that the attempt was fruitless, she saw the little Lawrie nodding slightly.

Silvia was jubilant. This indicated that the little one was aware of his surroundings and did not seal himself in his own world. She continued, "Lawrie, would you like to play with me?"

Lawrie hesitated for a moment and nodded in the end.

Seeing Lawrie’s cooperation, Silvia praised him for his great performance. She asked again, "Larry, can you please ask Lawrie what he wants to eat?"

Larry replied, "I know that Lawrie likes to eat cola-fried chicken wings."

"Wow, you can remember what Lawrie likes to eat. Larry, you are amazing too." Silvia patted their heads and asked, "Lawrie, do you like to eat chicken wings?"

Lawrie nodded again.

Silvia was so delighted that she snapped her fingers upon Lawrie's response. "Well, I’ll ask the kitchen staff to prepare chicken wings for you today. Lawrie, you have not eaten for a long time, you must eat more."

Amazingly, Lawrie nodded as well.

Although Lawrie still did not speak, he was willing to nod and communicate with others, which was also great progress. Silvia was as happy as a lark and picked Lawrie up. The little boy did not refuse.

At this moment, Maria brought the phone over and said, "Silvia, Miss Vanessa called and requested to put Lawrie on the phone."

Vanessa called?

Really?!

Silvia remained skeptical, but she reached for the phone. "Is it really you, Vanessa?"

Vanessa's voice rang. "Silvia, I'm fine. Don't worry. Lawrie is a very sensitive child. Thanks for taking care of him when I was unconscious."

"Oh no! Don't mention it." Silvia placed the phone beside Lawrie's ear. "Lawrie, it's your Mommy on the phone. She's looking for you. Say something to her."

Lawrie did not believe the news. He remained silent and eyed the phone suspiciously until a familiar and lovely female voice spoke, "Lawrie, my baby."

"Mommy..." Lawrie pouted his lips when he heard his mother's voice. He let loose all his emotions and tears coursed down his cheeks. "Mommy, I don't want to be away from you."

Hearing the little one’s sobs, Vanessa's heart went out to him. "Lawrie, I didn't want to be separated from you too. It's just that I am unwell and I am in the hospital currently. You don't like hospitals, so I didn't ask you to come and accompany me. Do you understand?"
