But when Sara noticed her trying to get up, she quickly said,
“Cora, you haven’t recovered yet. Don’t get up.”
Cora froze.
Because in her mind, Sara was always a very delicate lady.
Even a tiny bit of sunlight could scare her, leading her to have maids hold an umbrella for her, even on cloudy days..
Any minor illness would lead her to the hospital.
Cora remembered that when she was a rotating doctor at the First Hospital, she saw Sara visiting for minor illnesses several times.
But such a person got burned today, yet her first reaction was to save her grandson and worry about Cora’s health…
Being cared for in this way made Cora feel unexpectedly moved.But when the oatmeal on Sara’s hand was cleaned, blisters had already formed…
“Let’s rush to the emergency room.”
“All these blisters should be treated by a doctor.”
Arnold, William, and the Hansen elders took Sara to the emergency room.
At that moment, only Cora, Byron, and Martin were left in the ward.
Martin felt like he had done something wrong. He was worried about Sara’s hand injury and was feeling down.
Cora held Martin’s hand and glanced at the several thermoses on the table.
All of them were just taken out of Sara’s bag.
There were six thermoses that was just knocked over. Each could hold 33 ounces.
All of them together were pretty heavy.
But Cora remembered that Sara had been holding them all along before coming up.
Cora smelled a faint aroma of pumpkin in the air. She figured the oatmeal that had been knocked over must be pumpkin flavored.
She liked pumpkin, so smelling this aroma suddenly made her crave it.
She couldn’t help herself and opened the lids of the other thermoses.
Besides pumpkin oatmeal, there was chestnut, sweet potato…
and jujube cashew??lavored ones.
Cora looked at the soft and sticky oatmeal, and all were her favorite flavors.
In the end, she couldn’t resist, and she took a spoonful to taste.
Then, she was touched.
Tears fell down.
When Martin saw Cora crying, he got nervous.
He wanted to rush forward, but Byron held him back.
“Don’t go. Mom is happy,”
he said.
Martin looked up at Byron, full of confusion.
He didn’t understand how Cora could cry with happiness after tasting oatmeal made by a stranger.
Byron patted Martin’s head and told him,
“This is the first time your mom has tasted the flavor of motherly love…”
After treating her wound, Sara planned to go back to Cora’s ward.
But as she walked out of the doctor’s office, she saw Byron and Martin standing in the distance.
She quickly approached.
“Why did you all come out? What if something happens to Cora alone in the ward?”
“Cora will be fine,”
Byron said.
He knew that Cora just needed some time alone to vent.
So he left the ward with Martin.
“But…”
Sara knew Cora, a mother, wouldn’t easily give up.
But she was still uneasy about leaving sick Cora alone. What if she needed something and couldn’t find anyone?
But before she could express her worries, Byron pushed Marlin toward her.
“I brought him to apologize.”
Sara looked down and saw Martin standing in front of her with asullen look.
“It’s okay. I’ve treated the wound. It doesn’t hurt anymore.”
It would be a lie to say it didn’t hurt.
But Martin was Cora’s child, her sweetheart. How could Sara blame him?
Martin heard Sara wasn’t blaming him. She even said in a gentle. So he looked up at her.
Sara looked at Martin. She felt she could see a trace of Cora on his adorable and handsome face. So she squatted down to talk to him.
“From now on, when someone is holding something hot, you can’t bump into them. Not even to protect your mom. Because you might get burned too.”
Martin was stunned for a moment, then nodded his head. Clearly, he knew Sara was looking out for him.
“Good boy. In a few days, I will look for a good kindergarten for you.”
Sara thought about the news she had read online the night before. The news mentioned that kindergartens had rejected Martin because he couldn’t speak. So she said these words casually.
Yeah, she decided to buy a kindergarten for Martin. From then on, the kindergarten would be Martin’s domain. No one would dare to reject him and criticize him…

When Sara tried to touch Martin’s face again, he hid behind Byron.
In his eyes, things were to be taken on their own merits.
On the matter of Sara getting burned, he knew he was wrong. and needed to apologize.
But for Sara to have contact with him, she first needed to gain Cora’s forgiveness.
Seeing Martin still rejecting her touch as always, Sara felt somewhat sad.
But she knew that she couldn’t blame Martin or Cora.
If she hadn’t messed up so badly in the first place, none of this would have happened.
At that point, Byron said,
“I’m already contacting the kindergarten. You don’t have to worry about it. Just go home.”
Regardless of Sara’s mistakes, the fact that she saved Martin just now was undeniable.
Whether to accept her apology, Byron thought that was up to Cora.
“That’s fine. I’ll come to see her in the afternoon.”
Sara was worried that visiting Cora’s room at this time would upset her, hindering her recovery,
“If there’s anything she wants to eat, just tell me. I’ll cook it for her.”
Her hand was burned and might leave a scar.
But as long as she could get another glance from Cora, she felt everything was worth it.
“Sure.”
Byron, with Martin, saw Sara and the others out.
Nora had always wanted to thank Cora in person because her life had been saved by Cora too.
In the end, she and Osborn were sent away by Byron for the sake of not upsetting Cora.
But Byron didn’t expect to find Jerry in Cora’s room when he returned.
Jerry and Byron shared a smile, both men’s faces beaming, yet the air seemed to freeze.
“Mr. Hansen, you should rest if you have no other matters. I’ll take care of Cora and Martin.”
Byron was silent.
The words felt oddly familiar. Didn’t he say the same to William and the Hansen elders?
He was speaking as Cora’s husband.
So, did Jerry consider himself Cora’s husband?
Byron frowned in response.
“Mr. Lloyd, are you joking? It doesn’t make sense for others to care for my wife and son.”
Jerry didn’t back down.
“Your wife? If I remember correctly, you and Cora are divorced. She is your ex??ife.”
“An ex??ife is still a wife. I will take care of her. No need to trouble, Mr. Lloyd.”
Watching the back and forth between the two men, Martin looked at his daydreaming mother and started pushing them.
“Martin, don’t you welcome me?”
Being pushed by Martin felt like a mental punch to Jerry.
