Chapter 653
Todd and Keith exchanged a glance, both looking serious.
Even the usually carefree Owen sensed something wrong. Scratching the back of his head, he said, "Why do I feel like Mommy seems a bit off?"
Keith pressed his lips together and whispered, "Todd, is Mommy lying?"
Todd nodded heavily.
He remembered when Angela was sick and hospitalized as a child, Haley had looked equally haggard, but her eyes were calm and clear However, just now, Haley's eyes were full of bloodshot veins, which was alarming.
Based on Todd's understanding of Haley, something significant had occurred this time.
Todd said coldly, "I need to go back to the States early."
No matter what, he had to be by Haley's side and face the challenges together with her.
"I'm going back too," Owen immediately said. "I've been having nightmares for the past few days, dreaming that something happened to Daddy and Mommy. I can only feel at ease if I'm with them."
Angela blinked her misty eyes and said softly, "Wherever you go, I'll go."
Keith looked at Angela, Owen, and Todd in front of him and made a quick decision. "I'll have my assistant buy tickets for us to be back."
"Why are you going back?" Thomas came downstairs and heard the kids talking about returning home.
Thomas said, "Didn't we agree that I'd take you to the amusement park tomorrow? I've already bought the tickets and lots of snacks. You don't want to let me down after all that effort, do you?"
Todd looked up and said in a low voice, "Uncle Thomas, something might have happened to Mommy."
Thomas's heart skipped a beat.
Here they were abroad, it's usually difficult to get news from back home. How did Todd find out about Haley being hospitalized?
"Uncle Thomas, do you know something?" Keith asked sharply, staring at him.
Thomas said nonchalantly, "Your mommy just has a cold and felt dizzy. That's why she fainted in the airport restroom. It's not a big deal; she'll be out of the hospital in a couple of days. Todd, where are you going?"
Todd went back to his room, took out his computer, and quickly searched for news from home.
Soon, he saw the news about Haley fainting at the airport and being hospitalized.
The timing was less than half an hour after the four of them boarded the plane. At that time, Haley showed no signs of illness. Why did she suddenly faint?
As soon as they were sent abroad, Haley was hospitalized. Why?
Todd closed his laptop, his expression growing more serious.
"Todd, it's really not a big deal. In a couple of days, your mommy will come here to pick you up." Thomas followed him upstairs, trying to persuade him. "You're only four years old. You should be having fun, not worrying so much."
Todd stood up and said seriously, "Uncle Thomas, whether you agree or not, I'm going back."
Keith said calmly, "I've already had my assistant buy the tickets."
Owen nodded. "I want to go back and be with Mommy."
Angela, in her sweet childlike voice, said, "I miss Daddy and Mommy. I want to go home too."
Looking at the four children in front of him, Thomas pressed his temples in frustration.
Was he worried about Haley?
Of course he was.
However, Thomas knew that these four children were Haley's vulnerabilities. He had to protect them well so that Haley could handle more important matters without any worries.
However, in the hearts of these four children, Haley was also the most important person to them.
