Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 317 Anxious Heart

Late into the night, when the three children had finally fallen asleep, Mr. Clemens left the hospital, reassured. Before leaving, he once again instructed Dr. Charles to take good care of the children, insisting there be no negligence!

He also mentioned that although they weren't his grandchildren, they were dearer to him than his own.

If anything were to happen to the children, he would hold only himself responsible!

Dr. Charles repeatedly assured him that he would personally watch over them in the hospital, ensuring no errors would occur.

Mr. Clemens finally departed.

Mia was asleep. Noah climbed out of bed, gently tapped the dozing nurse's shoulder, and whispered, "Could I borrow your phone for a moment?"

"Of course." The nurse promptly handed over the phone.

To avoid making noise and disturbing others, Noah retreated to the bathroom with the phone to call Brenda, only to be greeted with an automatic message indicating that her phone was switched off.

He then tried calling his mom.

This time, the call connected, but no one picked up.

An uneasy feeling settled in Noah's stomach as he wondered, "Could Mom be on another business trip and not home yet? Maybe she saw the unfamiliar number and thought it was a telemarketer, so she didn't answer." With that thought, Noah texted Sadie: "Mom, it's Noah. Call me back when you get this message."

Afterward, he returned the phone to the nurse, adding politely, "My mom didn't pick up. She might be out of town for work and probably mistook this number for a spam call. I sent her a text with your phone so she could call back. If she does, could you please let me know?"

"Of course, don't worry about it," the nurse reassured him with a nod. "Now go get some sleep!"

"Thanks." Exhausted, Noah collapsed onto the bed and swiftly fell asleep.

The young nurse also dozed off beside the bed.

...

Micah dialed Sadie's number to no response, his brow furrowing with irritation. What was she playing at now? Another trouble on her hands?

He called Dahlia to ask for Sadie's apartment number.

After getting the information and hearing about Brenda's illness, Micah parked his car on the curb, hopped the fence into the complex, and got upstairs to find Sadie.

The front door was securely locked. He knocked twice to no avail.

Swiftly, Micah used a card to bypass the keyless lock and entered quietly.

On the balcony, Coco the parrot woke up with a start, flapping its wings and squawking, "Intruder, intruder!"

"Shut it!" Micah hissed.

Silenced, Coco huddled back into its cage, trembling slightly and squawking, "Mommy, mommy, an intruder's here!"

Micah ignored the bird, finding his way to the main bedroom in the dark. He pushed open the door and froze at the sight before him.

Sadie had collapsed on the floor, her clothes drenched, her face as pale as the moon.

"Dammit!" Micah cursed under his breath as he swiftly picked up Sadie and exited.

"Mommy, mommy-" Coco burst out of its cage, fluttering behind Micah.

As Micah carried Sadie into the elevator, Coco followed in without making another sound, settling on Sadie, nibbling at her hair as if trying to rouse her.

Micah had no time for the foolish bird; he let it be as it clung to her.

Emerging from the elevator, he left the housing complex and got into the car, with Coco trailing behind. The little fur ball nestled anxiously in Sadie's embrace, whimpering like a child. Micah drove with one hand while dialing Dahlia with the other. "Be ready at the hospital entrance."

"Got it!"

After hanging up, Micah floored the gas pedal, his eyes darting to Sadie's feeble form, anxiety consuming him.
