Maxwell slept the entire day. From morning to night. When the sky turned dark again, he came out of his room. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight."Is my wife back?" That was the first thing he said when he saw Marcus.Marcus shook his head heavily.Maxwell slumped to the ground and covered his face with his hands.After a night, Marcus came out of his room and saw Maxwell sitting on the sofa in a daze.His eyes were dark, his face pale. Green stubble grew on his chin."Maxwell, you… didn't sleep?" Marcus asked carefully. He walked over and subconsciously touched his forehead.This touch frightened him. It was boiling hot!"Why is your fever so high?" he asked in shock.Maxwell did not answer and fell to the ground with a thud.With a high fever, Maxwell was admitted to Westfield Hospital, but the cause of the illness could not be found."I think it's because he's so sad that his body has a stress reaction," the department director reported to Hayden with his head lowered
Marcus looked at him in shock. "What did you say?""Maxwell didn't tell you that Sonnet may have postpartum depression. She was acting abnormally a while ago.""How could this be?" Marcus was very shocked. He turned to look at Lindy, who was sitting silently by the side. "Lindy, do you know about Sonnet's situation?"“I didn’t know,” replied Lindy softly.Marcus nodded and held her shoulders. "We'll take turns to watch over this place. Go back and rest. Don't tell the children about Sonnet yet. We'll discuss it when Maxwell is better, okay?"“Alright,” Lindy replied.She left the hospital, went to the supermarket to buy a large bag of things, and drove to an old house in the suburbs. She knocked, three short and two long, and the door immediately opened from the inside."How's the situation?" Sonnet asked.Lindy put down her things and sighed softly. "Maxwell has a high fever. They can't find the reason. The doctor said that it was because the psychological blow was too great.
"He's not talking. He's in a daze. I feel like two of his souls are gone." Marcus's voice sounded a little dejected."Sigh, console him well. I have a feeling that Sonnet will be fine. Who knows, she might be back in a few days?" Lindy quickly said.Unexpectedly, Marcus sighed. "I don't think so. People with depression can do anything. Besides, he found all her things in the sea…""Aiya, don't be pessimistic. Look on the bright side. Just persuade Maxwell more. No matter what, you have to get through these two days!""So what if we make it through these two days? There's still a long way to go." Marcus continued to feel sad.Lindy moved her lips silently and cursed that fellow for being an idiot."Have a good rest. I'll hang up first." Marcus ended the call.Lindy put down her phone, feeling a little disappointed. If Sonnet hadn't forbidden her to say it, she really wouldn't have been able to hold back.She looked up and saw Lucas looking at her with concern. "What's wrong with
What else could Lindy say? She could only shrug her shoulders. "Since that's the case, we won't interfere with you. However, I want to tell you that if you encounter any trouble, you have to tell me and Sonnet. Don't forget that we're your childhood friends and your family.""Of course, if I encounter something sad one day, I will definitely complain to you. I hope you won't find me annoying!" Lucas's face was a little moved."Alright, we've talked it out. Let's enjoy the delicacies!" Lindy smiled.Lucas also ate. As he ate, he thought of something and asked Lindy, "Then where is Sonnet now? Maxwell is such a powerful person. She must be hiding very carefully, right?""Yes, it's in a house nearby. I helped her arrange it. Sonnet is also confused by the situation. She's too focused on being sad and her brain isn't working well.""Since she's nearby, call her out for a meal!"Lindy tilted her head and thought before saying, "Let her hide. How about this? We'll order a few more dish
"Where did you go?" Yves asked."I had dinner with my childhood friend. She's here now.""My childhood friend? Sonnet?""That's right."Yves was silent for a moment before asking, "Have you been drinking?""Yeah, a little. Talking about the past. Everyone's happy.""Shall I pick you up?""Sure." Lucas covered the phone and turned to look at Lindy. "Address?"Lindy waved her hand with a flushed face. "Just send her the location!""That's true," Lucas said as he sent Yves the location. "Follow the location. I'll wait for you…""Alright, wait for me," Yves said and hung up.Lucas put his phone in his pocket and tidied his clothes. He was mocked by Lindy. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Look at you. You're about to meet your girlfriend. You're like a peacock spreading its tail. You're handsome enough!""In front of my girlfriend, I'll never complain that I'm handsome. I want to be perfect in front of her!" Lucas said with his head held high.His words were met with boos from his two childhood
Sonnet shook her head and went to the kitchen to get some water.Suddenly, there was a loud bang.Sonnet turned to look at the door and saw a few burly men wearing masks rushing in!"Who are you? Ah!" As soon as Sonnet finished speaking, the burly men had already rushed in front of her and grabbed her arms on both sides."Let go of me, let go of me. What are you guys, wu…" Before Sonnet could finish speaking, someone covered her mouth with a handkerchief. Then, her entire body went limp as she was carried away by the two burly men.The men moved very quickly and disappeared from the door in an instant. If not for the open door, it would have made people think that nothing had happened!The bathroom door opened and Lindy came out. She stared at the open door in a daze. A few seconds later, she came to her senses and called Marcus. "Marcus, bad news. Sonnet has been abducted!"Marcus was sitting on the sofa in the ward, scrolling through his phone. Although Maxwell had a fever, he
At one o'clock in the morning, the normally quiet Brooks family manor suddenly became noisy, followed by the hurried footsteps of the butler in the corridor.Matteo had just turned off his laptop and was about to go to sleep when he was interrupted by the butler's footsteps. He pushed open the door and saw the butler standing outside Winston's bedroom."Master, Second Young Master is here." The butler said respectfully.Before Winston could react, the door of the room next door opened. Yvonne Thomas walked out with a puzzled expression and asked the butler, "What's going on? Why is Maxwell here in the middle of the night?"Seeing Yvonne come out of the next room, Matteo revealed a mocking smile.Recently, his father had not entered her room to sleep. He knew his father had eaten his fill outside and did not want to touch her. This situation had been going on for more than half a year. It was also because of this that that woman became even crazier.The butler bowed respectfully t
Maxwell looked at Winston. "I'll repeat it. Tell your men to let Sonnet go. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"As he spoke, he exerted more strength. Winston's face had already turned green.Winston lowered his eyes. After a while, he looked up at Maxwell with a much sharper gaze."If you want me to… stop… you have to let me call…"As soon as he finished speaking, Maxwell let go of his grip. Winston sat heavily on the ground and panted heavily."Don't play tricks with me. If we're talking about acting, I'm not inferior to you!" Maxwell looked down at Winston coldly.Winston chuckled. "Your acting skills are indeed top-notch. Even I was fooled by you for a while."He took his phone and made a call. He said to the other party, "Let Sonnet Turner go." Then, he hung up.He looked at Maxwell. "Since I've made the call, they'll do as I say. Don't worry.""I'm very relieved. You're my Fourth Uncle!" Maxwell mocked.Matteo looked at Maxwell and Wilson's interaction and was co
