Chapter 273 Aiden’s Nosebleed Won’t Stop

“What about you? Do you still not intend to give Lunabelle a proper position next to you?

She has been waiting for a long time.”

Lunabelle again. An annoyed look appeared on Simon’s face. Lunabelle had been bugging

him recently. It had gotten so annoying that he had the urge to just avoid her completely.

“Why should I give her that? She was the one who left me back then. I didn’t abandon her;

she was the one who abandoned me!” Simon sounded a little irritated.

Amanda didn’t say anything. She simply picked up the coffee and took a sip.

Simon suddenly realized he had lost his cool. So, he downed the rest of his coffee before

saying, “Sorry, I lost my calm there.”

“It’s okay.” She smiled faintly.

“Amanda, are you truly thinking of reconciling with him?” In the end, Simon still posed the

question. He truly couldn’t find,it in himself to be happy for them just like that.

Amanda was stunned for a moment before she realized that he was talking about Elias.

She was about to speak when her phone rang. She glanced at it and saw that it was a call

from the kindergarten. She instinctively frowned at the screen.

Did something happen to Aiden again?

Amanda answered the call, saying, “Hello, Miss Zimmers. What’s the matter?”

In the next second, her expression shifted as she stood up. “What?! Okay, I’ll be right

there. Please send him to the hospital.”

Amanda grabbed her purse and was about to leave right there and then after hanging up

the call. “The kindergarten teacher said that Aiden’s nose started bleeding, and they’re

sending him to the hospital now. I’m going to the hospital to have a look.”

With that, she moved to leave. Simon also rose to his feet. “I’ll accompany you. Let me

drive you there.”

“All right.”

Hence, the two arrived at the hospital the teacher mentioned.

Amanda couldn’t help but wonder, Everything looked fine before, so why did Aiden

suddenly have a nosebleed? Could it be that he had eaten too many fried foods these

days? But his phone had been rather light recently.

“Don’t overthink things. Let’s hear what the doctor had to say.” Simon noticed her anxiety,

so he couldn’t help but comfort her.

She nodded and followed Simon into the hospital. Miss Zimmers was accompanying Aiden

to get hist laboratory sheet.

“Aiden!” Amanda shouted as

soon as she saw her son.

Aiden’s nose had just stopped bleeding, and he seemed listless. When he heard Amanda’s

voice, he instantly sprung back up, letting go of his teacher’s hand as he dashed toward

Amanda.

“Mommy!”

“Don’t run. This is a hospital. Amanda walked toward her son as well, not forgetting to

remind him to

slow down.

Miss Zimmers came over with the laboratory sheet. “Miss Bailey.”

“Miss Zimmers, what did the doctor say? Why did Aiden suddenly have a nosebleed?”

Amanda was extremely nervous.

Simon stood at the side, looking at Aiden. He wanted to touch the child’s head, but the

latter dodged his

affections.

The little kid would call him ‘Daddy’ every time they met, but now Aiden was avoiding

him. Had Aiden changed his target of affection to Elias? At that thought, Simon clenched

his fists, which were hanging on either side of his body.

Miss Zimmers said, “Miss Bailey, I suddenly noticed that Aiden’s nose was bleeding, and I

couldn’t stop it at all. So, I sent him to the hospital. They had just done an examination on

him, but they didn’t seem to find anything. Perhaps the medical facilities here aren’t

advanced enough, so I suggest that you go to other hospitals for a checkup. The child’s

health takes priority.”

“All right, thank you, Miss Zimmers. You can leave him to me. So, you can return to your

work.”

“Now that you’re here, I have no reason to worry anymore. I’ll make sure to inform the

school that Aiden. will be taking two days off. That way, he can rest for two days. You can

send him back to school once he’s fine.”

“Sure.”

After Miss Zimmers left, Amanda checked Aiden’s nose. There were still traces of blood

around it, and her heart ached when she saw it.

Simon suggested, “I know a friend in a private hospital, so why don’t you get him a

checkup there? Miss Zimmers is right, the child’s health takes priority.”

“Can we go now?’ Amanda couldn’t wait to let Aiden go through a checkup. She wanted to

know why exactly his nose started bleeding.

“Sure. Let’s go. Private hospitals aren’t crowded, and the service is better there. The

results should be out

sooner, too.”

“Mommy, my nose hurts…” Aiden leaned against Amanda’s shoulder as he whimpered

softly.

Amanda hugged her son tightly. “Be good. Just sleep for a bit, and the pain will go away

when you wake

up.”

“Mommy… I want to drink milk.”

“Okay, I’ll get it for you.” With that, Amanda looked at Simon. She could only ask Simon

for help now.

Simon smiled. “I’ll buy it, then. You guys can wait for me in the car.”

Then, Simon turned around and left. Amanda carried Aiden as she walked out of the

hospital.

“Mommy, why didn’t Daddy come? Why is it Uncle Simon?” Aiden seemed a little

disappointed. He thought that Amanda would come with Elias.

Amanda patted her son lightly on the back. “Daddy is busy. Mommy accidentally ran into

Uncle Simon on my way here, so he sent me here.”

“Mommy. I’m fine, so don’t worry” Aiden could see that Amanda was anxious, so he

comforted her like a considerate kid.

Amanda smiled. “Of course, you’re fine. It’s probably all those fast foods you’ve been

eating recently. Did you eat junk food behind my back?”

“No, Miss Selina won’t let me eat any Aiden shook his head.

“Good boy…”

Even though nothing serious happened, Amanda could see that the child wasn’t his usual

self. He used to be lively and active, but now, he was listless and droopy!

Amanda and Simon took the child to a private hospital and had a series of medical

examinations performed on him. They were informed that the results would be out in a

few hours.

Amanda decided to just wait in the hospital. That was because she would still be anxious

even if she returned home right now.

“Wait here while I go see if the results are out. My friend should be keeping an eye out.”

“Okay, please thank that friend for me.” Amanda carried Aiden, who had fallen asleep, in

her arms. She spoke in whispers.

Simon smiled and nodded, then turned around and walked toward the doctor’s office.

Simon arrived at the consultation room and knocked on the door. “Dr. Smith, are you

free?”

Christopher Smith, who was looking at the laboratory sheet, raised his head. “Just come

here and quit pretending to be nice.”

Simon smiled, then walked over to him and asked, “How is it? Are the results out? Is the

kid okay?”

“First of all, tell me about the relationship between you and the child. Don’t tell me he’s

your illegitimate son! We haven’t met in just a few years, but you’ve already gotten

yourself into a mess!” Christopher asked, a gossipy expression on his face.

“What are you talking about? He’s my friend’s son. Examinations take too long in public

hospitals. That’s why I brought him to your place. How is it?”

Christopher sighed, looking slightly disappointed. “Oh I thought there was some scandal

going on. After some initial tests, he seems to be fine, but we may need to take advanced

tests to see if there are any illnesses in the blood, like leukemia.”

“Leukemia? It’s that serious?” Simon’s expression shifted drastically. He always felt that

such diseases would never happen to people around him.

Christopher explained in a professional tone, “Don’t worry. I’m just saying that we’re going

to take more tests. He seems to be fine, but a ceaseless nosebleed can’t be a good sign.

It’s better to take more tests as a safety precaution.”
