Chapter 379: Vomit Blood
Chapter 379: Vomit Blood
“Don’t go. Your father probably doesn’t want to see you right now.”
Lauren was held back by Tina as she watched her parents and three older brothers, who were her closest blood relatives, walk further and further away from her.
She shouted, “Brother!”
She did not know which brother she was calling out to. Rather, she just hoped that the three brothers who had risked their lives with her, who hated her at first but trusted her later on, would continue to believe in her.
However, no one turned back.
Lauren’s heart instantly sank.
However, her white watch rang with a familiar ringtone in the next second.
‘The moment she lowered her head to look at her watch, tears fell from her eyes.
Quinn’s profile picture appeared on the screen of the watch. His profile picture was a selfie that he took using her watch. He was wearing a cute headband, looking very childish.
Lauren picked up the call.
“Lauren, we were too anxious just now. We’ll take mom to the hospital first and come back to pick you up later.”
There was a lot of noise on Quinn’s end. There was the sound of the car door opening as well as Sean’s anxious voice.
Before Lauren could answer, she heard Franklin’s voice coming from the other end of the line.
“There’s not enough space for one car. Quinn, drive another car and pick Lauren up. She’ll definitely be scared if she’s there alone.”
Lauren’s tears were now falling like broken beads when she heard what Franklin said over the phone.
A moment later, running footsteps could be heard.
Lauren looked up and saw Quinn running towards her, his fringe swaying as he ran.
Quinn reached out his hand to Lauren.
“Come on, Mom would love to have you around.”
Quinn’s hand offered not only to take her to the hospital, but also to welcome her into a complete home.
Lauren put her small hand in Quinn’s big hand, and the two of them hurried away.
Lauren, Quinn, and Bryce sat in the second car, and they followed Franklin’s car that was in front of them.
However, halfway through the journey, Franklin suddenly pulled over.
“Why did he stop?”
Just like Franklin, Quinn slowed down and stopped the car on the side of the road.
As soon as the car was parked, Quinn and the others rushed into the car to see what was going on.
However, to their surprise, Maria was already awake in the car!
‘The window of the car had already been rolled down for some fresh air. Maria, who was sitting in the car, was not only awake, but she could also sit up by herself. The dark purple on her face had also faded, and was replaced with a rosy glow that had not been seen for a long time.
Quinn asked, “This…Mom?”
Maria nodded and got out of the car.
“Mom…” Lauren called out as well.
This was the first time she had seen a healthy Maria. She was agile and her face was rosy. She was no different from a normal person.
“What’s going on?”
“Mom suddenly vomited a mouthful of black blood in the car just now. Dad and I were scared, but after a while, she woke up and her face looked much better.”
Sean stood next to Maria. His face was much calmer, and there was still disbelief on his face.
“Maria, are you okay? How do you feel now? You vomited so much blood just now…”
Maria shook her head and took a deep breath of fresh air. “I feel very energetic now, Sean. I haven’t felt like this for many years.”
Maria squatted down and looked at Lauren.
“Lauren, thank you. I listened to you and took the medicine you gave me with me. It saved my life this time.”
Maria’s hand gently caressed Lauren’s hair.
In an instant, she fell into Maria’s arms.
Tears gushed out of her eyes again.
Maria had always believed in her.
Maria and Lauren were both crying. They hugged each other on the street and cried together.
In the end, Lauren was embarrassed.
She sniffed and looked up to see Sean, Franklin, Quinn, and Bryce standing in a row, looking at her and Maria.
Mhm…
It was obviously a touching scene, but it was suddenly a little awkward.
“Mom, let’s go to the hospital for another check-up, just in case,” suggested Franklin.
Lauren held onto Maria’s hand and said, “Yes, Mom, Franklin is right. Let’s go to the hospital for another check-up.”
Maria was in a good mood now. She smiled naturally and comfortably.
“Okay, I’ll do as you say.”
Maria sat in the car. Just as Sean wanted to sit in the back seat with Maria, she waved her hand.
“Tm not sitting with you. I want Lauren to sit with me.”
Sean was speechless.
From the moment Lauren was born, he knew this day would come!!!
