The Ex and Her Riches

Benedict nodded. “I understand, Mommy. I’m just a bit short of breath.”

Upon hearing him gasping for breath, everyone in the ward became instantly worried. Joshua quickly hooked Benedict up to various medical devices and examined the child.

Gwendolyn inhaled sharply. Seeing that, Cedrick pulled her into his arms, softly comforting her. “Don’t worry. Everything will be all right.”

“Benny’s health indicators are all the same as before. It’s just that his fall resulted in excessive physical activity, so he appears a bit weak. He just needs a good rest to be fine.”

Hearing that, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Zendaya gently touched Benedict’s leg, feeling somewhat guilty. She cooed softly. “Don’t be bothered by the pain, okay? Tonight, I will tell you a story, okay?”

Benedict raised an eyebrow. “Stories like Snow White again? I prefer the ones where the wolf comes to eat the children.”

Although his face was a bit pale, he still had the energy to joke around, which showed that he was doing well.

Gwendolyn relaxed.
