Chapter 183 - 183: Dad is a Big Devil
Jasmine Yale’s hand trembled slightly as she touched Chale Cheney’s, her heart burdened with complicated emotions.
Shock, excitement, and elation.
It was as if a stone had been dropped into her heart, causing ripples and splashes.
Just like layers of ocean waves, surging and turbulent, unable to calm down!
Over the past three years, she had dreamed countless times of having a child who would call her “Mom”.
She had imagined what “Little Rascal” would look like countless times. However, in the end, the child was not able to be born safely.
Little Chale’s call awakened countless memories within her.
Tears whirled in her eyes.
She lowered her head and planted a kiss on the little one’s forehead.
He was burning up, his forehead was hot.
Little Chale drowsily opened his eyes—
Upon catching the scent of Jasmine Yale, he reached out from the quilt and clung to Jasmine Yale’s neck!
“Jasy…”
“Little Chale, it’s me. I’m here.”
Jasmine Yale embraced him with a smile, while secretly wiping away her tears. “I thought I’d never see you again. Dad is a big monster,” Chale Cheney began to complain.
Sylvan Cheney’s brows furrowed.
“What? Dad?” Jasmine Yale was surprised.
Chale Cheney touched his head, his fever clearly making him delirious.
“I misspoke, I mean Uncle Cheney…uh…Little Rascal got confused…” Chale Cheney quickly corrected himself.
Jasmine Yale chuckled, not taking the matter to heart.
After all, the child had just called her “Mom”. He must be muddled due to his sickness.
“Why didn’t you take your medicine?”
Jasmine Yale adopted a serious expression.
“Uncle Cheney wouldn’t let me see you, but I wanted to see you,” the little fellow rubbed his eyes, looking aggrieved.
“Doesn’t the fever make you uncomfortable?”
Jasmine Yale pulled him into her arms, stroking his small head.
“Uncomfortable.” The little guy pouted unhappily.
“If you’re uncomfortable, you should take medicine. When you’re sick, Jasy is uncomfortable too,” Jasmine Yale said with concern.
“But being unable to see Jasy is more uncomfortable.”
“Jasy is here now, right? Good boy, let Jasy feed you medicine, okay?”
“Okay…”
Chale Cheney obediently listened to Jasmine Yale’s words, like a docile little cat.
Sylvan Cheney approached, added some hot water to the cup, and then handed the cup and medicine to Jasmine Yale.
At this moment, the little fellow looked satisfied and incredibly happy, his small hands waving non-stop.
Sylvan Cheney rolled his eyes at him.
He looked like a completely different person from this morning!
After developing a fever in the morning, he refused to take medicine, refused injections, and even threatened to throw away the thermometer!
Sylvan was really clueless about his sudden temper!
He had indeed pampered this little thing too much!
Back in Lonton, he was always behaved. But after meeting Jasmine Yale, he acted as if he was possessed.
“Mr. Cheney, have you asked for leave for Little Chale?”
Jasmine Yale was feeding the little one medicine.
“Mhm.”
“Little Chale, is the medicine bitter? If it’s bitter, Jasy will feed you candy.”
Bitter…
The little fellow frowned, looking distressful.
“Mr. Cheney, could you get a piece of candy, please?” Jasmine Yale turned her head to ask.
With a resigned expression, Sylvan Cheney walked over to the table, opened the drawer, and pulled out a jar of milk candies.
He took out two pieces.
After unwrapping the candy, he put one piece in Chale Cheney’s mouth.
The other piece, he popped into Jasmine Yale’s mouth!
“Hmm!” Jasmine Yale did not even react before her mouth was filled with a sweet milk candy.
She could only roll her eyes at him.
She’s not a child.
Moreover, when she was young, Sylvan Cheney never allowed her to have candy.
He would scare her every day, saying that eating candy would cause tooth decay, and no one would want her if she had rotten teeth.
And pulling a tooth hurts terribly..
