105. Am I Going to Die?

2024-10-29 19:42:56Edmund turned to Alice. "Are you okay?"
Alice smiled slightly. "I'm fine. Don't worry.""Yes, Mama is doing her job very well. Look at this, Uncle. Her face is smiling. Mama is facing Grandma patiently."Sky turned the paper over. There was a trolley now. The fat woman raised one hand and turned her head in the opposite direction."Let me guess. Your grandmother didn't want to eat."Sky nodded vigorously. "Yes! Grandma said she didn't want to eat healthy food because it was a boring menu. She said she wanted pizza with a lot of cheese. I warned her that pizza wasn't healthy, but Grandma didn't want to listen. Mama had to take the trolley out."Sky pointed to the next picture. "Mama also reminded Grandma to take medicine, but Grandma refused. She said she usually took medicine at night. She didn't want to take medicine during the day. Grandma even accused Mama of wanting to poison her. But Mama remained patient."Related chapters

Edmund put on a more serious look. "You ate snacks, Mom. You must have known that the sodium content was high, so why did you eat three large packets? Did you deliberately raise your blood pressure so you could ask Alice to look after you?" Elizabeth didn't answer. Blinking slowly, she looked away. "Then you asked for pizza, while Mrs. Klein and the others had made special menu for you. I don't think you're stupid enough to believe Giselle. Healthy pizza, really? The sodium content is still high even without cheese. Are you a child? Don't you have good self-control? Or did you deliberately make you blood pressure rise so you can blame Alice?" Elizabeth glanced for a second, but her lips remained tightly pressed. Edmund suspected that she was cursing under her breath. He glanced at the monitor. Seeing that the blood pressure numbers were still stable, he continued. "Please be honest, Mom. What did you receive from Giselle? Blood pressure-lowering medic

Edmund entered Sky's room without making a sound. Even though the lights were turned off, he could vaguely see Alice lying on her side hugging their little daughter. "Why is Mom so heartless towards Alice? Alice is a very good wife and mother. She is also a caring daughter-in-law. Why can't Mom accept her well?" Edmund mused bitterly. After one breath, he sat on the edge of the bed. He looked at his poor wife. Feeling pity, he began to gently stroke her hair. "Sorry I haven't given you the best. Sorry I haven't changed my mother." Either because of Edmund's touch or whisper, Alice woke up. "Ed?" She let go of Sky carefully then got up. "What's wrong? Did something happen to your mother?" Hearing that worry, Edmund's breathing became heavier. "No, she is fine. Her blood pressure has dropped. I have also asked the nurse to accompany her and check her again." Alice blinked for a moment. "Then what are you doing here? Didn't you sa

"Why do you think Sky likes to explore various destinations?" Edmund asked, whispering. Alice blinked as she searched for the answer. When she found it, she gasped. Edmund smiled faintly. "First session, we do it here." "Ed, wait. How many sessions do we usually do? Ed?" Too late, Edmund had begun to act. Alice was immediately lulled. She could just surrender and enjoy. Now she even doubted Emma's statement. Was it true that she was crazy about Edmund, even since their first night? Not the other way around? Edmund was too wild to be tamed. Without their knowing, in the next room, Sky had just sat down and rubbed her eyes. Her head whipped around looking for the source of the sound. "Is that Mama's voice? Is Papa torturing her? Why is she asking for forgiveness?" After blinking for a moment, Sky grabbed her teddy bear. She stroked Grassy's head, whispering, "But Papa couldn't possibly torture Mama. He

"Yes, you're like out of breath, Mama. You're lucky I was very sleepy last night. Otherwise, I would have reprimanded you and Uncle Ed." While Alice grimaced, Sky put her hands on her hips. Her style was like a mother giving advice to her child. "Night time is the time to rest, Mama. You should be sleeping, not playing until you scream like that. What if someone else is disturbed? Poor them. I think I'll have to ask Mrs. Klein and the others later. If it turns out they heard it too, Mama and Uncle Ed should apologize to them." "No, Honey. Please don't ask them," Alice shook her head swiftly. She now bent down, holding Sky's arm. The little girl pulled her head back in surprise. "Why?" "I want to ask them directly. If they heard it, I can immediately apologize. Just leave this matter to me, hmm? This is my responsibility." Sky blinked adorablely. "Okay, but don't forget, Mama. Your voice was really loud last night. Oh, Mama? What's wron

"Where are they? Why didn't you tell them to come in? You should have just directed them here without asking," Elizabeth grumbled.The servant nodded. "Okay, Ma'am." While Alice was wondering, Sky whispered to her, "Mama, are Grandma's friends good people?" Alice shook her head. "I don't know, Honey. But, it's good if we stay alert. Whatever they say, ignore it. They might have been incited by Grandma to not like us." Sky pouted. Her shoulders drooped. Resting her chin on her book, she muttered, "I think this is going to be a very boring day." Alice could only stroke her head with pity. She should have forced Sky to accompany Edmund to the office. That way, the little girl wouldn't get caught up in the tension between her mother and her grandmother. A moment later, three women dressed in expensive clothes entered with bright smiles. They were not young anymore. However, none of wrinkles on their faces were visibl

"Oh, Madam? Where did you buy that beautiful brooch?" Sky pointed her finger again. The woman flinched. She looked down at her crystal brooch. She didn't thought there was anything special about it. The shape alone resembled a strange butterfly. "This is a souvenir from my niece. She came to visit me last week." "Is she from Oregon?" The owner of the brooch was wide-eyed. "Yeah! How did you know?" Sky's eyes lit up. Her feet jumped a little. "It must be a rare butterfly from Oregon, Ma'am. It's called Leona's Little Blue." The woman blinked at Sky. "You're very smart. Have you ever seen it in person?" Sky shook her head. "No, I saw it in a magazine. Mama read it for me. There aren't many of them anymore. They're rare. I'm very afraid that they will become extinct. Their color is very beautiful, Ma'am. Bluish white, just like the color of your brooch. Your niece is so nice to give such a special gift." The woman chuckled

"Sorry, Honey. Mama didn't know you felt that way. But Elizabeth is my mother-in-law, your father's mother. I have to respect her," Alice explained softly."I understand that. I also know that Mama is trying to melt her heart. I'm not forbidding you from being kind, Mama. I just don't want you to try for something in vain." Alice's face suddenly stiffened. Sky's words jolted her senses. "In vain?" "I think Grandma will never change, Mama. She doesn't like us. No matter how hard you try, no matter how often you show her your sincerity, she will never change." Suddenly, Sky's expression turned gloomy. She flipped the page over again, showing a picture of Elizabeth hugging a woman with horns on her mouth and head. "Grandma only likes Giselle. Until whenever, she will keep to praise Giselle and put you down. I don't want you to be sad because of them." "No, Honey," Alice shook her head slightly. "I'm not sad. I'm jus

"You want to keep Edmund busy again?" Elizabeth sighed.Straightening her back, Giselle raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, I'll handle him. Your job is to keep Alice busy. Let's make sure the two of them don't communicate much. A lack of communication is the main factor that causes arguments in the household, right?" "Okay, I understand. It's a very easy task. I'll keep that stupid woman so busy that she doesn't have time to touch her phone." Giselle nodded in a graceful manner. "Thank you, Mrs. Hills. I'm counting on you." While Elizabeth's smile turned crooked, her eyes narrowed. Her mind began to devise tactics to cause trouble for Alice. When she imagined the result, she laughed cynically. "Lack of communication alone is not enough to destroy a relationship. We need to shake their trust," she muttered slyly. "What do you think, Madam?" Elizabeth buried her head into the pillow. "You'll see. I'll make her cry non-stop." ***

"Sky, we should have brought that rifle too. Why did we leave it in the tent? The hunter could have taken it," Emily whispered as she shook Sky's hand. Feeling uncomfortable, Louis elbowed his sister in the arm. "Emily, there's nothing to regret. We'd better think of a way to defeat this evil man." "You think you can beat me?" The hunter laughed harshly. "Don't dream!" The hunter raised his rifle again. However, when he was about to aim, a strange sound came from above. Seeing a big orangutan about to jump from a branch, Sky hurriedly pulled the twins to run. She no longer cared about the rifle lying on the ground. She knew very well that angry orangutan was much more dangerous than the hunter. Meanwhile, the hunter was already stunned. He could only scream when the large mammal fell on him. The other hunters who watched did not dare to act. They didn't even move, afraid that the orangutan would think of them as their next target. "Aaargh! You guys .... Don't just sta

The twins fell silent. They didn't know what the right answer was. They didn't want to go back to that cramped confinement, but they also didn't want to be shot. Moreover, the hunter in front of them seemed serious about his threat. "Louis, I don't think we should fight back. He won't hesitate to shoot us. Look, his finger is ready to pull the trigger," Emily whispered anxiously. Louis swallowed hard. He agreed with his sister, but was reluctant to admit it. "Relax, Emily. There must be other ways to survive." He thought hard, forcing his brain to come up with spontaneous ideas. "Sir, how about we negotiate?" he said unexpectedly. The hunter pulled his eyes back from the lookout hole. One of his eyebrows rose. He didn't expect to hear those words. "What kind of negotiation can a little kid like you offer?" "We are not ordinary kids. We are the heirs of the Savior Group, potential great leaders in the future. If you are willing to free us, we will pay you a large amount.

"Papa, what a coincidence, Louis' GPS is with me. I'm looking at the coordinates of our location," Sky blinked stiffly. "That's great, Baby. Can you tell me the coordinates? I will be heading straight there." Sky swallowed hard. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead. "That's the problem. I forgot the numbers I had memorized." Edmund fell silent for a moment. Sky could imagine him sighing in disappointment. "Papa, are you angry? Change." "No, Baby. I'm not angry. I understand that you are too nervous. Try to take a deep breath, calm your mind. You have managed to remember all the numbers and even letters, Darling. Slowly, you will be able to read them." Sky followed Edmund's advice. After closing her eyes for a moment, she looked carefully at the coordinates. "There's a little line sleeping here, Papa." "Okay. That's a negative sign. It means you are south of the equator. Then?" "There's an egg. It's zero, right?" "Yes. You're doing well so far. What's next, D

"Do I see correctly? There is a human child in the middle of the forest?" The man spoke a language that Louis and Emily didn't understand. An annoyed chuckle came from the other man. "Damn! Just adding to our work." "What should we do now?" "What else? We can't possibly let them escape. They can report to other people. Our plan could be ruined. Let's catch them!" The twins blinked at the rifle pointed at them. Emily immediately hid behind Louis' back, while Louis bravely stepped forward and stretched his arms in front of Mimi. "Don't hurt these orangutans! They are rare animals protected by the whole world. They should not be hunted and traded!" Louis exclaimed loudly. Over Louis' shoulder, Emily peeked out. "Yes! Orangutans must be conserved, not hunted. Don't you feel sorry for them? Look! The baby is scared!" Unexpectedly, the two hunters laughed. Not long after that, another person arrived with a frightening aura. His skin color was much paler than his friends. Obvio

"No, Louis." Emily frowned. "We can't leave Mimi here alone. She could die." "But that's what she wants. She wants her child to be safe! She will survive. We just need to save her child quickly. I think we can do it. We are trained children, you remember?" Once again, Emily shook her head firmly. "No, Louis. That's too risky. We can't be selfish and think about our own pleasure. How about we just call the forest house? This is a serious matter." While Louis took a deep breath, Sky knitted her eyebrows. She looked very serious with her lips folded inward. "I think Emily is right. We can't solve this problem alone. We need help from adults. Our parents and the foundation people. We have to report this to them. Mimi needs medical help, while the poachers need to be caught." Louis pondered for a moment. He was actually reluctant to contact his parents. He wanted to be independent. However, Emily and Sky's words made sense. The problem was too big for them. "Okay. I'll call Dad

"Sky, what's that sound?" Emily whispered in a choked voice. "Is that an explosion?" "I think it was the sound of a gun," Louis interrupted before grabbing the smaller girl's arm. "Sky, could it be a poacher?" Sky blinked angrily. "Maybe yes. This area is outside the scope of the foundation. The patrol team only checks it occasionally, when they have time." "Isn't illegal hunting prohibited? Only bad people still kill animals. What do you think they just shot, Sky? Is it an orangutan?" Louis asked with a serious expression. Emily immediately shuddered in horror. "Oh, if the hunters are targeting orangutan, I hope it manages to escape and survive. Orangutans are rare animals. It would be a shame if they became extinct." "And I hope it's not Mimi," Sky continued, stomping her foot. "She always takes her child everywhere. She must have difficulty moving and is vulnerable to attacks." "How about we check it? If it is indeed the work of poachers, we can immediately report this

"Honey, have you seen the kids?" Alice asked as she approached Edmund. "Kids?" Edmund looked away from his laptop. His eyebrows raised. "Aren't they still sleeping? I didn't see them come out of the tent." "I thought so too. But after I checked, they weren't there." Edmund looked around. His eyes and ears sharpened. However, no trace of the children was detected. "Are they playing in the back garden?" Alice shook her head. "I've checked it. They're not there." "Chicken coop? Who knows, Sky took the twins to see the chicks." "Not there too." Edmund snapped his fingers. "The geese coop! They must be playing with Gigi and Gusi." Alice took a deep breath. The lines on her forehead looked clearer. "I've looked everywhere, Ed. They're not anywhere." "Have you searched the house? Who knows, they might be playing hide and seek. They might be hiding somewhere." Edmund got up from the chair, about to check another room. At that moment, Russell ran out of the gue

Louis' brows furrowed at Edmund's question. "Why did you ask that, Sir? Of course I love Sky. She's my friend. She's like a little sister to me." Edmund blinked stiffly. "Is that so? You think of her as a little sister?" Louis nodded firmly. "Yeah, I think Emily is like that too. She used to want a younger sister. When Russell was born, she was sad. Sky's presence helped her to forget that disappointment." Edmund's lips slowly pursed. His hands were shoved into his pockets. "So, you consider my daughter to be your sister?" he muttered. For some reason, a feeling of relief rose in his heart. "Does it mean you will look after her like your little sister?" "Yes, I will take good care of Sky. I won't make her cry." Edmund's eyebrows knitted together. "But earlier, I saw you picking on Emily. Can you be trusted to look after your younger siblings?" Louis' lips suddenly twitched. While scratching his temple, he chuckled. "About that, I actually like teasing Emily. She's a cr

Everyone clapped when Sky and her animal friends finished performing. It wasn't just the Harper kids who were amazed, but their parents too. "Thank you, Sky. This is the sweetest welcome we have ever received," Kara said with a big smile. "Yes, this is an extraordinary welcome. How did you train those animals? Not just cat and dog, you also managed to train two geese." Frank gave Sky thumbs up. The little girl chuckled proudly. "That's because they're not just animals, Sir. They're my friends and they're smart. I think they want to follow my instructions because we get along well." "They're your friends?" Frank raised an eyebrow. The twins immediately scrambled to explain. "There are no other children here, Daddy. Therefore, Sky only plays with her animal friends." "Sky said she always fed them a lot. I think that's why the animals obey her. They like Sky!" Sky jumped enthusiastically. "Louis and Emily are right. Every day, I spend most of my time with my animal friend
