Chapter 752: Chapter 748: This old fellow doesn’t want to leave me behind.
A group of children gathered in a big circle, starting a snack-sharing session.
The class teacher, hearing the noise from the adjacent office, came over to take a look.
He saw the children happily surrounding the Timmy Lewis siblings who had been absent for a while, eating and chatting with great atmosphere.
He took out his phone, secretly snapping a few photos and a couple of videos, and then sent them to the parents’ group chat.
Then, he stood on the platform and announced, “Classmates, during the first class this morning, let’s change it to a food-tasting lesson, alright?”
With food and fun, and no need for lessons, the children naturally cheered in unison.
Meanwhile, the parents in the group chat saw their children getting along harmoniously with their classmates, like one big family, all hooked arm in arm, looking so happy.
“How wonderful! Back then, our child was always isolated, and their personality became more and more withdrawn. Now, it’s different. Every day, they come home, chatting non-stop about interesting things in school and with classmates.”
“Indeed, people need to find their own kind. Before, I also thought my child had a weird personality, incompatible with other’s children. Now I know, they’re not weird; they just haven’t found their own kind.”
…
The parents spoke passionately, feeling happy about their children’s good conditions.
Then, someone tagged Richelle Dunn in the chat.
“@thetripletsmommy, the current good academic environment and atmosphere is thanks to the courageous actions of Timmy Lewis and Timothy Dunn. They’ve fought for a clean and united learning environment for the entire class!”
Following this parent, there were a series of messages thanking Richelle Dunn.
Richelle was at the military hospital after having Kennedy Green examined, preparing to give him acupuncture treatment when her phone, tucked in her pocket, continuously buzzed with messages.
Maggie Mitchell suggested she should check her messages first.
Richelle gave her an apologetic smile, then opened the WhatsApp group, first looking at the photos and videos shared by the teacher before scrolling through the parents’ messages.
She also read the messages where the parents specifically mentioned her and then replied.
“@all members, thank you all for acknowledging my two children. In fact, not only my children, but all children are brave and united. I, as a parent of three children, am also grateful to their classmates for their acceptance and love.”
After Richelle replied, she handed her phone to Jasmine Leith.
“Auntie, take a look at how happy the three kids are in school.”
Jasmine Leith, who now spends her days in the hospital, bored and irritable. Actually, everyone suggested that she should let a caregiver take care of Mr. Green some of the time, so she could take turns coming over to accompany him.
But Jasmine Leith said, “My husband and I have been married for so many years, and it’s either that he’s busy or we’re both busy. It’s rare, like now, that we can spend time alone together. Besides, at our age, every day we spend together feels like a countdown.”
Her words sounded rather sentimental.
But she said them very calmly.
So, everyone stopped persuading her.
That’s how people are sometimes; most of the time, they’re busy chasing after a livelihood and dreams.
It’s only when, like now, you realize the most precious thing is slipping away from you bit by bit, that you’re willing to settle down and accompany each other.
“Let the kids come over on Saturday to accompany Mr. Green!”
As Jasmine Leith watched the video, her lips curled into a smile.
Richelle chatted with her as she performed acupuncture.
“Alright. Let them come over for the day. Anyway, as long as you and uncle don’t mind their noise, it’s fine.”
Jasmine Leith gave a gentle look to Kennedy Green, who seemed to be sleeping peacefully, and smiled.
“How could we mind the noise? It’s just that our eldest son believes in staying single, and we can’t interfere. Actually, not long ago, Mr. Green said that when he retires, we should adopt two children aged seven or eight to bring some liveliness to our home.”
Richelle nodded with a smile, “That’s a good idea. You and Uncle have the patience to take care of children very well.”
Jasmine Leith added, “These days, I keep telling Mr. Green that once he wakes up, he returns to his primary job, and I’ll retire to be with him.”
Richelle was surprised, “You’re not planning to return to the Green Group?”
Jasmine Leith shook her head, “No; if our eldest son wants to take over, let him continue. If not, we’ll hire a professional manager to manage. At our age, we should cherish the time we have together.”
Richelle didn’t try to persuade her anymore.
“That’s good. Uncle’s body actually has quite a few small issues. Once he wakes up, I’ll need to help him recuperate for a while. With you by his side, he’ll naturally feel more at ease and pay more attention.”
Jasmine Leith nodded, “This time, it’s all thanks to you and Collections. Otherwise, I would’ve really collapsed!”
Richelle comforted her, “Uncle’s condition is improving day by day. My master and I will adjust the treatment plan based on his condition tomorrow. We’re very optimistic about Uncle’s situation, so Auntie, don’t worry too much. Just think of it as Uncle making up the sleep he missed over the past two or three years all at once.”
Jasmine Leith nodded, “Indeed. I’ve noticed his complexion improved a bit in the past few days. Today’s blood test results showed that all values have risen a bit. It seems like this old man isn’t willing to leave me behind just yet!”
