But because it was her family’s matters, even if he was angry, he couldn’t interfere too much. Jack was immersed in his own thoughts and didn’t hear Mia’s question.

“Jack, Jack?” Mia called again.

The niece at the side couldn’t stand it anymore. She pulled Jack’s sleeve and answered first, “I’m his little niece.”

Only then did Jack come back to his senses. He awkwardly rubbed his head and said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t hear you clearly just now. Oh, this is my little niece. Call her auntie quickly.”

“Uncle, she’s clearly an older sister. Why do you want me to call her aunt? No wonder you don’t have a girlfriend!” the little girl said while pretending to be mature.

Before Jack could respond to these words, Mia was the first to feel embarrassed. She hurriedly waved her hand and said, “It’s okay, it’s okay, Auntie and Sister are both fine.”

To be honest, Mia had never been called an auntie before. Because she looked very young, many people always treated her like a little girl.

Jack had just finished taking care of the child. He asked, “Why are you at the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?”

Mia shook her head. “Noah’s grandfather is sick. I’m here to take care of him.”

Mia didn’t want to talk too much about this. After answering, she wanted to change the topic, but her head suddenly felt dizzy and her limbs went limp. She felt suffocated for a moment and couldn’t control herself as she collapsed. Fortunately, Jack was quick and stopped Mia by supporting her in his arms and politely not getting too close.

Mia’s vision was turning black. It must be because she had just finished her medicine. She leaned against Jack for a while before recovering. She quickly stood up and thanked him.

The side effects of this medicine were getting more and more severe. Mia’s body was already a little weak, and she hadn’t taken proper care of herself since she got pregnant. In addition to the effects of taking this medicine, she would feel dizzy from time to time, and many symptomns began to appear.

“Mia, what’s wrong? Want to get checked?” Jack had just seen Mia and felt that there was something wrong with her complexion, but he didn’t ask because of his relationship with her. But now, Mia’s condition was obviously not very good, so Jack couldn’t care less about manners.

Mia stepped back to a safe distance as soon as she heard he was going to check. She forced a smile. ‘Jack, it’s just hypoglycemia. It’s all right. You don’t have to check.’

As she spoke, Jack’s little niece ran over and said that she wanted ice cream.

It was winter now, yet she still wanted to eat ice cream despite her fever. Jack flicked her head with his finger. “You can eat the snow on the ground.”

When his little niece heard that she was not allowed to eat it, she pouted and started to use her trump card. She hugged Jack’s leg and started to act cute.

Mia, her heart warming, stood at the side and watched this scene.

She, wondering if her child would be a boy or a girl, subconsciously wanted to touch her stomach.

If it was a boy, she hoped that he could become a man and protect the people he wanted to protect. If it was a girl, she would also teach her well and protect her. No matter what gender it was, she would protect them and let them grow up healthy.

After that, she wanted to go to a place that she had wanted to go all these years but never had the chance to do so. She wanted to settle down there so that the baby could live comfortably with her.

With this thought in mind, a smile began to bloom on Mia’s face. Then, she realized that she had been out for quite some time, and his grandfather was probably going to wake up soon, so she smiled and said goodbye to Jack.

As she turned the corner, Mia accidentally bumped into a man carrying a backpack. The man looked up at Mia and hid the things in his hands. Then, he smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry, are you okay?”

Mia wore a thick layer of clothes and wrapped herself up tightly, so she naturally didn’t feel any pain from the collision and shook her head.

Seeing that Mia was fine, the man didn’t stay any longer and turned to leave.

Mia looked at the man’s back and found it strange. That man seemed to be holding a camera, but what was there to photograph in the hospital?

Mia didn’t pay much attention and quickened her pace back to the ward..
