Chapter 275: Chapter 275 What on Earth Did You Say to Cooper Coldson?
"Cooper, why are you here so early today?"
At that moment, Melissa Greenwood had just returned from outside, she glanced at Little May nonchalantly, "Is your butt hurting again?"
"What’s going on?" Cooper Coldson frowned, "Did you hit her?"
"How could I?" Melissa laughed helplessly, "She had a severe fever this morning, there was no choice, I had to give her a shot in the butt, she’s been complaining about pain all day."
She warned Little May with a stern look, "Don’t bother Uncle Coldson."
"Oh." Little May hung her head dejectedly, obediently laying on the bed, looking pitiful.
Cooper gently stroked the little one’s head, "It’s okay, just endure it, it will stop hurting tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Coldson." Little May didn’t dare to speak recklessly, staying obediently positioned.
Melissa tenderly fed the little one, "Be good, eat more, so you can recover."
Little May was very well-behaved, eating eagerly, apparently feeling much better.
After Melissa finished feeding her, Cooper called Melissa outside.
"She’s already better now, so early tomorrow morning, let’s head to the U.S." He was obviously very anxious.
"Tomorrow morning?" Melissa frowned, "After enduring for many years, a day or two more won’t make much difference, I want to wait until May is discharged before going."
"This specialist is world-renowned, it’s very hard to schedule a time." Cooper still insisted, not giving Melissa a chance to refuse, "Let it be set, tomorrow at eight, meet at the airport."
He prepared to leave, "I have business to attend to at my company, I must go back to work, remember to eat."
"Okay, you go take care of it." Watching Cooper’s retreating figure, Melissa clenched her teeth, she obviously knew what Cooper was anxious about.
Obviously, Cooper wanted to get her checked before the divorce hearing, he was hesitating about the divorce.
Melissa didn’t understand why Cooper suddenly became so hesitant, had Yolanda hinted something to him? That despicable woman, so unreliable!
Thinking this, she returned to the ward and immediately lost her temper, "Were you trying to tattle just now?"
Although Little May was very well-behaved, Melissa found that sometimes the child would inadvertently complain to Cooper, which was truly annoying.
"No." Little May denied with her head lowered, "My butt really hurts."
At these words, Melissa stepped forward and slapped Little May’s butt, causing the little one to cry out immediately.
"Wah... it hurts so much!"
"Shut up!" Melissa scolded, "Cry again, and see if I don’t really break your butt."
Little May immediately clamped her mouth shut, not daring to cry anymore.
Only then did Melissa cease, but thinking about heading to the U.S. tomorrow, she became irritable.
The next day, Cooper left for the airport on time, but received a call from Melissa on the way.
"Cooper, May has developed a high fever again." Melissa spoke with a sobbing voice, "Have you reached the airport yet? I can’t make it today, I’m sorry, Cooper."
Before Cooper could respond, the call was disconnected.
"Stop the car!" Cooper, unable to contain his anger, commanded sharply to Richard Reyes, "Turn around, go to the Women’s and Children’s Hospital."
The car swiftly headed for the hospital, during the ride, Cooper’s expression was grim, and Richard was too scared to even breathe heavily.
Upon arrival, Cooper quickly went to the ward and indeed found Melissa by the bedside, with Little May’s face flushed with fever.
"What exactly is going on?" Upon entering, Cooper asked sternly, "Why does she keep getting fevers?"
Melissa, eyes red, shook her head, "I don’t know, she was fine when she went to sleep last night, but this morning, her temperature rose again."
"What did the doctor say? Did they conduct a full examination?" Cooper was clearly also worried about Little May.
Melissa nodded, "They did an examination, there’s nothing for the moment, the doctor said it’s probably because she’s too frail, her resistance is weak."
Cooper frowned, "Come out with me for a moment."
Melissa let go of Little May’s hand and followed Cooper to the hallway.
"We can’t wait any longer for the specialist in the U.S.," Cooper pondered aloud, "Let’s do this, take May with us, use Coldson Group’s private jet, we can even give May an IV on the plane."
Melissa was shocked inside, she hadn’t expected Cooper to be so hurried, even willing to use a private jet.
She still disagreed, "Cooper, what are you so rushed for? If not this specialist, we can find another opportunity, we aren’t that pressed for time."
She felt sad, "Although May isn’t our child, she already sees me as her mother. She is sick now, I don’t want to distress her like this."
Cooper’s expression turned grim, but listening to Melissa say this, he didn’t insist further.
"Fine, then stay with her, I will arrange everything else." He turned and strode away.
This made Melissa very uneasy, she hesitated briefly but then called out, "Cooper, are you rushing because the hearing is about to start?"
Cooper paused but didn’t explain anything, leaving swiftly.
This angered Melissa even more, she immediately called Yolanda.
Since she had adopted Little May, Yolanda had already removed her number from the blacklist.
Yolanda was just about to leave for work when she saw the call from Melissa, she frowned unhappily, "Hello? What’s wrong?"
"Your Little May is sick, aren’t you coming to see her?" Melissa said through clenched teeth.
Yolanda hung up and greeted her office, then took a taxi to the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.
But upon reaching the hospital, before she could even see Little May, Melissa stopped her at the ward door.
"What’s going on?" Yolanda was impatient.
"What did you tell Cooper?" Melissa crossed her arms and demanded.
Yolanda was confused, "What did I say? I don’t meet with him, what could I possibly tell him?"
She sneered, "Melissa, not everyone is as shameless as you, liking to manipulate behind the scenes."
Melissa’s expression shifted but still didn’t believe, "Then why is he so adamant about taking me for a fertility check-up? Are you not the one causing trouble?"
Yolanda tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Shouldn’t you be happy? It shows he wants to have a child of his own with you."
She looked anxiously towards the ward, "You really should thank Little May, perhaps she made Cooper realize the goodness of children, which might’ve prompted this thought."
Melissa watched Yolanda’s expression, which didn’t seem deceitful.
Her heart tasted bitter, Yolanda might not even know, she and Cooper can’t have children, they’ve never been together, how would a child just appear?
She was too weary to say more, just reminded Yolanda in the end, "Remember, I will treat May well, don’t get any ideas, the moment you see the divorce papers, you can take Jaxon away."
"Remember, if I find out you mistreated May," Yolanda threatened fiercely, "I’ll make you regret it deeply."
