"I'm alright." Jay was in a slightly better mood after hearing Angeline's voice.

Jenson continued, "Daddy, you can get away with lying to Mommy today, but what about tomorrow?"

"I'll be going back to Cloud City tomorrow," said Jay.

Jenson was anxious. "How are you going back when you're this sick?"

Jay smiled and said, "I'll be all better by tomorrow."

However, Jay had high fever again in the evening. His coughs became more frequent, and he would cough dozens of times continuously. It was starting to affect Baby Robbie's frame of mind, who was outside waiting on him.

Baby Robbie crept in to pour a glass of water for Jay.

When Jay saw Baby Robbie's half-smiling expression on his enchanting face, he stretched his hand out to poke his nose. "Sorry, I'm making you worried."

Baby Robbie said, "There's nothing to be sorry about, Daddy. It's all my fault. Daddy's body has become so thin from always worrying about me."

Jay sat up, wanting to comfort Baby Robbie.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to speak, his lungs

were affected. He started coughing as if the world was turned upside down.

Angeline suddenly called, and when Baby Robbie saw the unknown phone number, he did not think twice before connecting the call.

"Hello, Robbie speaking."

At the other end of the phone, Angeline was slightly stunned.

Jenson had picked up the phone during the day, and Baby Robbie picked it up when she called at night. Why was Jay not answering her calls? "Baby Robbie, it's Mommy."

Jay was giving Baby Robbie a meaningful look, and he immediately understood. He smiled and said," Mommy, I miss you so much. Where are you now? How are you doing? They said you got really sick and Baby Robbie was so worried about you..."

Baby Robbie seemed to be his usual chatterbox self and took control of the conversation. He barely gave Angeline a chance to respond.

Angeline quietly listened to the child's voice. At first, she thought that Baby Robbie was being his usual self and it was normal for her to be unable to intervene. However, Angeline gradually felt that something was amiss.

Baby Robbie was asking her so many questions but barely gave her a second to answer. It obviously

meant he did not care about the answers to those questions.

"Stop, Baby Robbie," Angeline suddenly commanded.

Baby Robbie tightened his lips.

When the buzzing fly stopped making noise, the surroundings became silent.

Angeline then heard continuous coughing from the other line. Although the volume was low, she could distinctively tell that the sound was coming out of Jaybie.

He had gotten sick, so that was why he did not dare to answer her calls.

"Where's Daddy?"

Baby Robbie said, "At... the hospital."

"Get him on the phone!" Angeline knew at this moment that Jens and Baby Robbie had been playing dumb all day on behalf of Jay.

Baby Robbie was in a dilemma. "That's-"

"You tell him, if he doesn't answer the phone right now, then he'll never get a call from me ever again." Angeline was concerned, yet she was disorderly. She could only say harsh words now to threaten Jay without knowing the overall situation.

Baby Robbie used his hand to cover the phone's microphone and whispered to Jay, "Daddy, Mommy said if you don't answer the phone, you'll never again

get a call from her."

Jay,

He did not dare to make Angeline angry, so Jay had no other option but to pick up the phone reluctantly.

"Angeline, cough, cough..."

Angeline was choked up as she said, "How foolish! Did you use your sons to lie to me because you're sick?"

Jay pretended to be relaxed about it and said with a smile, "It's not a serious illness. Cough, cough... I just don't want you to worry."

Angeline started sobbing. "You haven't been sick for so many years. Grandma was right. You must've been exhausted from taking care of me this whole time. It must've worn down your immunity. I'm the one at fault, Jaybie..."

"Angeline, it's not your fault. Cough, cough... I was out late last night in the cold, having a chat with my grandfathers. It's just a slight cold, and I'll be better in a few days. Cough, cough..."
