Can't Get Away With You

Chapter 40 Questioning

His wife had not returned home, and his child was having a high fever. That was how he dealt with it!

As Van noticed that Yolanda looking at him with disapproval, Van snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Seeing that Van didn't say anything more, Yolanda looked away and turned around to see the tired look on Joey's face. She felt sorry for him.

"Where is Lois?"

Joey lowered his head but said nothing.

Seeing her son's stubborn look, Yolanda said in a low but deep voice, "the child is having a high fever. As a father, you are busy with your work. Where on earth has she been as a mother?"

Joey's heart sank. He was afraid that this broken family would continue to suffer from external storms. He turned his face away and admitted his mistake. "Maggie was almost recovered. It was me who opened the window last night that caused her high fever."

Yolanda was even more depressed. her child had learned to defend others, but why did he blame himself for everything!

"Grandma..."Yolanda heard her weak voice. Looking at her granddaughter's pale face and bloodless lips, she stepped forward with concern.

Maggie looked at his grandmother, who she hadn't seen for a long time, and felt wronged. As soon as Yolanda pulled the little girl into her arms, she saw that her eyes were already red, and there were two teardrops in her eyes. "I want my mother. Can you let her come back home?"

Yolanda had always been fond of Maggie. She looked at Joey with disappointment, but coaxed her gently, "Okay, grandma let mom come back home."

After a pause, Maggie shook her head and cried, "No. don't let mom come back. She will feel uncomfortable when she gets sick."

Puzzled, Yolanda glanced at Joey and scolded, "tell me what happened!"
