Chapter 786 Was the Medical Examination Result Bad?
From the survey results, the youthful individuals by the pier had relinquished their reverence for Janna.
Lucia heard this, fell silent for a moment, and then said, "No matter what decision you make, I hope you can consider yourself as the most important factor. Don't think about me. If you can't bear the pressure later, hand me over immediately. Atticus, we used to be best friends and confidants, and now I also want to be your best lover. I don't want to hold you back!"
Atticus found it unbearable.
His eyes welled up instantly, and his resolve to sever ties with the Rhoads family for Lucia this time strengthened further.
Fiona hung up the phone.
She messaged Janna again: [Atticus just called me. I scolded him arrogantly. He will take action soon.]
Janna quickly replied: [Okay, got it.]
Janna didn't say much else.
In such circumstances, should Janna remain silent, Fiona would likely refrain from inquiring.
Territorial conflicts frequently culminated in violence.
Fiona stowed her phone and pivoted.
On this occasion, she captured a favorable angle, photographing the father, son, and daughter huddled together.
As Fiona concluded the snapshot, Darwin glanced up.
Upon spotting Fiona, a grin instantaneously adorned his countenance.
"Why are there two educators present now? Your father is astute; shouldn't it be this way?" Fiona approached.
Chicago sighed. She drooped her head and said, "I don't know some words. I'm just a first-grade kid."
Fiona smiled. "Sorry, sweetheart, mommy forgot about that."
Fiona glanced at the time. "Shouldn't you guys go take a bath?"
"Yes." Charles also checked the time. "Dad, let Mom teach the rest."
Charles then said to Fiona, "Mom, the servant has prepared the ointment. Uncle Stuart said it works well. Remember to apply it."
"Ointment?" Fiona didn't react.
Darwin, meanwhile, lowered his eyelids, his mouth twitching to hold back a laugh.
"Your lips are cracked; aren't they hurt?" Charles's beautiful eyes were full of purity.
Fiona felt very embarrassed, then nodded reluctantly. "My son is so thoughtful. Mommy has forgotten it. Don't worry; I will apply the ointment in a while!"
"Okay." Charles nodded slowly, then looked at Chicago.
Chicago looked at her brother with mixed feelings.
She had heard the headmaster say that Charles was handsome and smart, but she didn't know which window God had closed for him.
Now Chicago knew the answer.
"What's wrong?" Charles was puzzled.
Chicago shook her head, then said sincerely, "Charles, no matter which window is closed for you, I will always love you the most!"
With that, Chicago even made a heart gesture.
Chicago's words confused Charles.
"Let's go! It's time for a bath." Chicago said, pulling Charles upstairs.
"Slow down, little girl, don't let your brother fall!" Darwin reminded.
"I see!" Chicago said, then looked at Darwin mysteriously, with a hint of warning. "It's not good to get hurt often, Dad. Do you think so?"
Darwin was speechless, nodding. "Yes, I do!"
"Great!"
It seemed like Darwin and Chicago had reached some agreement.
Chicago held her brother's hand confidently and headed upstairs.
"Chicago, you and Dad are so weird. What does Dad understand?" Charles thought for a moment and asked.
Charles always felt that there was a big secret between Dad and his sister.
He was never interested in other people's secrets, but this time, he really wanted to know.
"You'll understand when you grow up, Charles!" Chicago said maturely.
Charles felt puzzled by Chicago's words.
What secret did his sister grasp at that moment that he would need to grow up to comprehend?
Just then, Burl, with a messy head, came out of the room and happened to meet the siblings going upstairs.
"Chicago," Burl saw Chicago and grinned.
Chicago looked at Burl, then turned to her brother and very seriously asked Burl, "Uncle Burl, is your 25th birthday coming soon?"
Burl tried to stay alert.
He counted on his fingers. "Not yet, seven or eight months later. Are you starting to prepare a birthday gift for me?"
Chicago's beautiful face became even more complicated.
She thought, 'Each day, Charles played with Uncle Burl. Could it be that Charles, like Uncle Burl, was 25 and still hadn't dated anyone?'
"What's wrong?" Burl was a bit scared when he saw Chicago's expression.
He even looked back.
"Nothing." Chicago shook her head.
She was distressed because she couldn't let her uncle move out; it would be too pitiful for him! But what about her brother's future marriage?
This was a big problem!
Chicago thought, 'No, I had to discuss a solution with Charlotte tomorrow!'
"As soon as you say it's nothing, I feel like there's something. Did something happen? Did you see my medical report? Is there something wrong with me?" When Darwin was in the hospital, Janna saw that Burl wasn't gaining weight, so she arranged a full medical examination for him.
The results should be out by now.
"Burl, what are you howling about?" Thalassa came out of the elevator and heard Burl's wailing.
Thalassa let go of Kenny's hand. She ran a few steps to the stairs, stretched her neck, and asked Burl.
Burl looked at Thalassa, looking mournful. "Thalassa, I might be in trouble. There's something wrong with my physical condition!"
"What?!" Thalassa was shocked.
"Uncle Burl, don't talk nonsense and scare the godmother!" Chicago hurriedly said, then ran downstairs, hugging Thalassa's belly. "Little sister, don't be afraid; Uncle Burl is fine; godmother, don't be afraid. I didn't see Uncle Burl's medical report; he's scaring himself!"
Kenny looked towards the stairs. There was a hint of warning in Kenny's eyes.
"You didn't see my medical report, so why have you expressed that way?" Burl felt puzzled.
Supporting her forehead, Chicago answered cruelly, "I just thought that Uncle Burl is already 25 but still hasn't dated anyone; I'm very worried!"
Burl was speechless.
On the right side of the stairs, his sister and her annoying husband were watching his joke.
On the left side of the stairs, Thalassa was about to burst into laughter; she couldn't hold it in.
Burl was despaired a lot.
He thought, 'It will be better if there really is a problem with the medical report!'
At least his dignity would still be intact!
Burl had just woken up and was about to go downstairs to find something to eat.
Now, he didn't feel like eating anymore; he had lost his appetite.
"Burl, Thalassa will arrange a blind date for you tomorrow. You are handsome and talented; don't be discouraged! Don't lose heart!" Thalassa shouted to encourage Burl.
Burl ran off, disappearing from everyone's sight immediately.
Thalassa laughed.
She lowered her head, smiling at Chicago, holding her round face in her hands. "Chicago has grown up. You worry about Burl's marriage, and even you know how to comfort your little sister; that's great!" "
