Chapter 21 He Might Be Scared
When Erik arrived at the hospital, the person on the bed had not woken up yet. His precious son, Jackson, had not even changed his clothes. He was drawing on the bed in his pajamas
This scene stunned Ena
Tacksam
Hearing the commotion, jackson turned around When he saw Erik, his expression relaxed a little, and he raised the painting in his band up high
That was Jackson’s usual crayon drawing. He could not speak, and the words he knew were limited. Therefore, most of the time, he described complicated things by drawing
The first painting was a woman feeding a child. The child was very happy with a smile]
The second one was a woman holding a child’s hand. The two of them were about to go out happily. There was a cloud–like circle next to their heads. Inside was an amusement park castle.]
The third one was the golden chandelier on the roof smashing on the ground, the woman holding the child, one hand pressed under the chandelier, bleeding
Jackson pulled Erik to the side of the bed, pointed at the woman on the bed, and then pointed at the woman he drew, implying that this was the same person
Erik looked at the person on the bed hesitantly. When he saw the pale face, his expression froze
He thought. It’s actually her?
This woman actually had the courage to save Jackson?”
Thinking back to his previous nasty attitude towards her, Erik had complicated feelings.
Jackson seemed to want to say something but when he saw Sophia following behind Erik, his face turned pale. He broke free from Erik’s hand and shrunk towards the bed
Jackson what’s the matter?”
Erik did not feel anything strange in Jackson’s eyes. He only thought that Jackson was complaining that Erik did not take him to the amusement park and that something had happened to him. Erik’s voice softened []
Tm very sorry about what happened today. I will do what I promised you in the future. Is that okay?“]
Jackson still looked unwilling as he refused to approach Erik]

Erik felt a little helpless. He turned around and called out to the butler who had been waiting at the door. Take Jackson home first. It’s too late. He should rest.
Jackson shook his head repeatedly, refusing to let go of the bed sheets.]
Jackson, what’s wrong? Erik asked in confusion]
Let me do it. Maybe he was frightened today,” Sophia said. She crouched down and patted Jackson’s head.]
Jackson, do you want to have dinner with me?
Jackson shivered, has eyes filled with fear. He immediately dodged Sophia, ran behind Erik, and tightly gripped his pants.
“He must be scared.” Sophia explained calmly and sighed. “Erik, why don’t we leave the hospital to Earl? I’ll accompany you to take Jackson back first. It’s too late. It’s time for Jackson to rest.”
Erik looked hesitantly at the unconscious Leora on the bed. After he told the hospital to take good care of her, he left.[]
After the nanny coaxed Jackson into falling asleep, Erik came out of the bedroom with a cold look on his face, as if he was still thinking about what had happened during the day.]
In the living room, Sophia had yet to leave.
“How is Jackson? Is he asleep?”
“Yes.” Lrik nodded and glanced at the time. It’s too late. Let the driver take you home.“]

“It’s okay, my driver will pick me up later.” Sophia glanced at the bedroom on the second floor. “Jackson is so young. It’s not good for him to stay by your side all the time. Think about what happened today. It’s really scary. It’s better to find someone to take care of him. Grandpa is right.“)]
Erik glanced at her, as if he was really considering this suggestion]
