Chapter 380 Aspire To Study Medicine
“I’m not afraid of it being difficult.” Sophia sounded firm. “I want Mommy to be my teacher when she’s fully recovered! I’ll work hard to study and learn so that Daddy, Mommy, Franklin, Xavian, and Clayton will not have to suffer from any sickness or pain.”
Among the four children, Sophia was considered the most carefree child.
Moreover, she was the only girl among her siblings.
Not only did Samuel and Natalie adore her, but even her three brothers would also always try to protect her.
Even though Sophia enjoyed the love from her family, she knew she was being excessively adored and protected by them too.
Despite Natalie shivering in cold after getting bitten by the snake, all that Sophia could do was bawl her eyes out uselessly. Not only that, she even made the weak Natalie comfort her.
As much as she could be a soft and sweet girl, she would become completely unrecognizable when she showed her obstinate nature.
Looking at her, the three brothers chuckled.
“Go ahead if you like it then. If Mommy doesn’t want to take you as her student, Xavian and I will help you persuade her. You can always give up halfway through if it gets too tough…”
Before Franklin could complete his sentence, Sophia rolled her eyes at him. “Who said that I’ll give up?”
Ashamed, Franklin quickly changed his attitude. “Yeah, you definitely won’t. I’m speaking nonsense.”
At that, Sophia clenched her fists tight.
Perhaps it was fate that Sophia had somehow set her ambition to learn medicine.
Meanwhile, Natalie lay groggily on the bed and slowly drifted off to sleep in the room.
She felt her limbs still icy despite her body turning warmer than before. It was such an uncomfortable feeling that she moaned, “S-So cold…”
“Where?” A deep yet attractive voice of a man came from beside her ear.
“My hands… and feet… they’re freezing…”
Because those were Natalie’s groans while she was in a daze, she sounded like she was acting coquettish with the man, unlike her usual calm and mischievous self.
Her tone was so sweet and mellow that anyone’s heart would melt for her.
Recalling the doctor’s reminder before he left, Samuel let out a sigh exasperatedly.
It was supposed to be a great birthday with a perfect gift waiting for him. It was a pity everything had fizzled into bubbles since the doctor had advised them against performing strenuous activities.
Frustrated, Samuel’s lips twitched as he held onto Natalie’s hands tightly in his palm as he tried to use his own body heat to warm her up.
Soon, Natalie’s body warmed up. After feeling so much better, her whining also became lesser.
She lay comfortably in Samuel’s arms and fell asleep.
However, the man figured she was not deep into sleep and thus inched beside her ears and whispered, “Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something?”
“I’m craving for some prawn ravioli,” Natalie muttered.
“Sure, let’s have some prawn ravioli then.”
This time, Samuel did not hear Natalie’s response. All he heard was steady breathing from the woman in his arms.
However, he did not dare hug her for too long.
There was no way he would not have any reaction while hugging her since he was wide awake.
Samuel tucked Natalie under the blanket and got out of the bed to prepare to make some prawn ravioli in the kitchen. He planned to cook it later after Natalie woke up so that she would be able to enjoy a plate of steaming hot goodness.
Of course, he still had another urgent matter on hand. He wanted to investigate the snake incident to find out if it was an accident or a case of a mischievous act by someone with intention.
He had been worried about Natalie’s condition earlier, and hence he did not get started. But since her condition had now stabilized, he thought it would be perfect for him to get on it.
Coincidentally running into Jolene while he was trotting around the corridors of the resort, the man instructed her to get someone to prepare him some fresh prawns for the ravioli.
Jolene held her head low throughout the conversation and quickly strode off upon hearing the instructions. As such, she did not arouse his suspicions for her.
Samuel rolled up his sleeves and was on his way to the kitchen when he passed by a room with the door left ajar. Walking out from inside the room was Yara, dressed in a deep blue floral bathrobe.
Her long black hair had been elegantly styled into a loose bun and fastened with a garnet hairpin, revealing the fair skin on the back of her neck.
The spark in her eyes gleamed with affection. Standing in the yard at the resort, she looked absolutely stunning.
It was obvious Yara had specially dolled herself up.
Unfortunately, before she could say anything, Samuel furrowed his brows and asked, “Yara, why are you here?”
