You're The Best Medicine For Me novel Chapter 81

“Of course, during my mummy’s most difficult times, it’s Aunt Mildred who had Daddy Mitchell to help her out during the hard times. Even me and Emma were delivered by Daddy Mitchell.” Jacob said smugly, totally unaware of that his last sentence would cause a lot of misunderstanding.

Hearing the word “delivered”, Bryan’s face darkened. His whole body exuded a sense of coolness, and he spat, “He delivered?”

Jacob nodded, and said, “I heard mummy almost died when giving birth to me and Emma.”

“He’s a man, why did he go become a gynecologist, aren’t there any women in the maternity department.”

Bryan’s mumbled to himself, his words carried a tinge of anger, but it was also as if he was asking Jacob.

Looking at Bryan’s strange face, Jacob asked questioningly, “Daddy, what’s the difference between Daddy Mitchell delivering and a female doctor delivering?”

“Of course, there is a big difference.” Although there was no difference between male and female doctors, there were mostly male doctors in the maternity department. But not Kevin.

Jacob was even more confused, he frowned and ask, “But, Aunt Mildred said, mummy almost couldn’t make it at that time, there were no doctors in the hospital that dared to deliver for her, that’s why Daddy Mitchell did it on his own and took Emma and I out from mummy’s tummy.”

Took them out from her tummy!

Bryan let the last few words get to him.

It suddenly occurred to him that on Shirley’s tummy was a scar. Even though six years had passed, and the scar had healed well, but if he looked closely it was still noticeable that a surgery had occurred there.

When Bryan realized that, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He raised his hand and rubbed Jacob’s head, “You gave Daddy a fright.”

“I know right, it was really scary that time, I think Daddy Mitchell is great, if you don’t chase mummy, I will support Daddy Mitchell.”

“Who said I didn’t chase your mummy, your mummy…” Thinking of how she had fiercely torn the pre-nuptial agreement he wrote, Bryan felt an overwhelming sense of dejection. Or perhaps, he can start with this little fellow: “Jacob, let Daddy buy you a smartwatch, you secretly let your sister wear one too. If at any time you miss me, just give me a call. If your mummy needs anything, you can let me know too.”

Jacob raised his finger and tapped Bryan’s nose, “Are you trying to use me to chase mummy.”

Finishing his words, Jacob’s body twisted around and slid down from Bryan’s body. Running away, he said, “Watch, I can accept, but if you want to use me to chase mummy, that’s impossible, you work hard yourself, good luck to you daddy.”

He clenched his little fist, and showed a good luck sign to Bryan. Turning around he walked to the front of the door, his little hand held the metal handle and gently pulled it aside. He unfastened the lock and gently opened the door.

Bryan followed behind him, feeling both exasperated and funny, “Jacob, don’t you want our family to reunite?”

Jacob’s hand which was opening the door trembled slightly. He turned around to look in Bryan’s direction, his face let out a sweet smile, “I only need to know that I have one daddy, and that he is living well, listening to mummy and not bullying mummy, hehehe.”

The little fellow slipped out.

Bryan’s depressed feelings tonight left suddenly. Seeing the little fellow had already left, he immediately followed.

Going back to their seats, Bryan didn’t go back to Shirley’s side, but instead went to sit at Master’s table.

Seeing Jacob who came back together with Bryan, Shirley waved her hand at him and called out, “Jacob, come here!”

She didn’t reject Bryan being close to her kids as much anymore, but every time she saw him playing with the two kids, she still felt anxious.

She felt worried that if he found out that the two kids belonged to his genes, and she had been hiding it from him all along, what his reaction would be like.

He would murder her alive.

Jacob walked over to Shirley obediently, sat down next to her, and turned to look for Bryan.

Because Bryan wasn’t at this table anymore, Amelia also followed him to another table. There was no seat for her there, and so she stood behind Arthur, smiling along with them from time to time.

Emma pouted, looking unhappy, “Bad woman.”

Mildred lowered her head to look at the cutie sitting in her lap, she narrowed her eyes and said, “Bad people will get their karma one day, you don’t have to worry, I’ll help your mum to take care of her.”

Emma raised her head to look at Mildred, “Why is she leaning so close to daddy, is she intending to be my stepmom, if he dares to marry that woman, I will let him become my stepdad.”

“Pff!” Shirley was shocked by her daughter’s unsurprising words.

She raised her head to look at Emma, then turned to look in Bryan’s direction.

She didn’t know what Master was talking to Bryan about, but the people at the whole table were laughing. As for Amelia who was standing behind Master, she was diligently helping Bryan to refill his tea.

Bryan was presenting his most gentleman behavior. Even though he wasn’t exactly enthusiastic about Amelia’s behavior, he nodded his head occasionally, displaying full on patience with her.

Seeing this scene, Shirley frowned and turned around to say, “Why do you care what he does, it’s his business who he wants to marry.”

Jacob turned to look at Shirley, he was extremely sensitive to Shirley’s emotions. Seeing Shirley’s expression, he understood immediately.

Mummy was jealous.

However, he would not tell mummy that daddy was racking his brains to think about how to chase her. Let her be jealous and learn to understand what she was feeling herself. If not, she would never know that she had secretly fallen in love with daddy.

Mildred also gave an amused laugh.

Shirley took a look at her, her face suddenly flushed red, “What are you laughing at, what’s so funny.”

Emma’s face was crinkled with frowns, she turned around to look at Mildred, “Yes, I don’t think it’s funny too, my daddy is almost stolen away by the bad woman.”

She was a little worried.

What if daddy found out mummy was not at all gentle and wanted to change his psychologist? Does that mean she and mummy would have to be crawling out of City L? Thinking of this, Emma pursed her lips and started wailing.

This wail was both fierce and loud, in a short while her little face was bright red.

Mildred was anxious, she hugged Emma and started consoling her, but not only did she not manage to calm her down, she was instead making things worse.

She shot a pleading look at Shirley.

Shirley gave her a little gleeful look, got up, and took Emma in her arms, patting her back and softly telling her, “Good girl, don’t cry, mummy is here…”

This method had always been useful all this while, but this time it didn’t work anymore.

Emma’s wails attracted the attention of the whole hall. Hearing Emma’s cries, Bryan immediately turned around to look in the direction of Shirley.

Just at the same moment, Shirley who was hugging her child turned around. Their eyes met…
