The Pinnacle Of Life

“Papa, why did they call Uncle Alex useless? He isn’t!” The little girl, Zoey Carter, pouted angrily.

She was almost six years old so she was growing to be more thoughtful.

She was able to escape death that afternoon all thanks to Alex. When she was still in her spirit state, all she felt was loneliness and coldness. Alex was like a campfire in the winter, keeping her warm, which was why it left a strong impression on her.

Charles replied, “They don’t know what they’re saying.”

Hailey added, “Let’s help him out in some way, rather than babble on about those two. Let’s see, how do we find him… I heard after William’s accident, his wife became vegetative, she’s been in the hospital ever since.”

Charles said, “Let’s go to the main city to find Cheryl.”

Just then, Alex and Cheryl went back to the hospital.

Alex was going to help his mother discharge from the hospital. However, Cheryl felt like Brittany should stay for another few days just in case.

Alex smiled, “There’s no need for that. I’m more familiar with my mom’s condition than you.”

Annoyed, Cheryl bit her lower lip and glared at him, “I’m her primary physician, how could I not be familiar with her condition?”

Alex was slightly flustered by the look that she was giving him. He waved dismissively, “But it’s the truth. You’re not necessarily more familiar with her condition just because you’re her primary physician. I mean, how about this? I know you frequently have period cramps, but you don’t know how to deal with it, don’t you?”

‘What?’

Cheryl was extremely embarrassed as her face flushed into a bright shade of pink.

She did indeed have period cramps, even now.
