When Wayne arrived at the hospital, Anna was still unconscious. His precious Matthew was still in his pajamas and was drawing next to the bed. Wayne was stunned by what he saw and called out, “Matthew!” Matthew turned around, saw Wayne, and quickly raised his drawing for Wayne to see. Matthew could not speak and his vocabulary was limited. So he would draw if what he wanted to express was too complicated. The first picture was of a lady feeding a boy The boy smiled happily. The second picture was a lady leading a boy out the door. Next to their heads was a cloud-like bubble with a playground inside. The last picture was a golden chandelier that crashed. The lady protected the boy and her hand was crushed. There was blood everywhere. “Okay. Matthew led Wayne to the bed. He pointed at Anna and then at the woman in his drawing, telling Wayne that Anna was the one who saved him. Wayne was surprised to see Anna’s pale face. Anna? Why did she protect Matthew at the risk of her life? Wayne wondered with amazement. He felt guilty when he recalled the scenes in which he was mean to her. Noticing Ada, who was standing behind Wayne, Ma tthew’s face turned pale immediately

He then r eleased Wayne’s hand and backed towards the bed. “Matthew, what’s wrong?” Wayne did not see the chang e in Matthew’s eyes and thought that Matthew was ups et with him for not taking him out and the accident. Wayne said tenderly. “Daddy’s sorry for what happened today. I guarantee that I won’t go back on my words from now on, alright?”. Matthew appeared r eluctant and would not approach Wayne. “Butler. ” Wayne called out to the butler, “It’s late. Take Matthew home. He needs to rest.

Perhaps he was shocked by what happened toda y. ” Ada said. She squatted and gently patted Matthew’s head, “Matthew, shall we go for dinner?” . Matthew shuddered and looked terrifi ed and tried to avoid Ada. He quickly ran behind Wayne and grabbed his leg . “He must be terrified

” Ada said and sighed, “Wayne, why don’t you let the butler handle things here and we’ll go back to pu t Matthew to bed. It’s getting late. And Matthew needs to rest . Wayne looked at Anna and order ed the butler, “Make sure that the hospital takes good care of . h e r” . Wayne came out of the bedroom after the nanny coaxed Matthew asleep. He still seemed to be upset with what happened to Matthew and Anna. Meanwhile, Ada was still in the sitting room. ”Is Matthew asleep?” “ Yes,” Wayne nodded and said, “It’s late, I’ll have the driver drive you back home. “No, thanks. My driver is on his way to pick me up. Ada continued, “Matthew is so young and he needs to be taken good care of when you work. Just look at what happened today. Grandfather’s right. You should find someone to take care of. h im . Wayne looked at her as if he was conside ring her suggestion
