Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 2184

Meanwhile, Mike had expected this, saying, “That’s how it is. I stayed up all the time when Nicky was little. He hardly slept through the night and would cry whenever I laid him down. My arms felt like they would fall off.”

He grew sad as he spoke.

Austin was surprised. “You looked after your son by yourself? Didn’t you have a nanny?”

“Well, I couldn’t afford one then, and Nicky’s mom didn’t want to take care of him. So I raised him alone.” Mike felt worse after bringing up the past.

He took the babies from Alexander. “We’ll take care of them now. Go and rest.”

“I’m fine, okay?” Although exhausted, Alexander refused to leave.

“Come on.” Knowing what he was thinking, Mike said, “If you want to make it up to Lily and the babies, you’ll have plenty of time to do so. For now, you should get some rest. Who else can care for the babies and rescue Lily if you get sick?”

Alexander finally yielded. However, his gaze lingered on the babies. They were sleeping peacefully now, like little angels. It was probably from crying themselves out last night or being well-fed. However, they resembled devils when they cried.

“We have to wait for the DNA report anyway. Just leave your babies to us,” Mike said.

Alexander thought about it and nodded. “I’ll take a nap. Wake me when it’s noon, all right?”

He could only sleep until noon because he had many more things to do.

“Don’t touch!” Mike swatted his hand away as Austin did it again. “You see many patients, and you might carry a lot of germs and viruses. You could infect them, okay?”

“Hey, come on!” Although he said so, Austin refrained from touching them again. However, he continued to lean over the stroller and cocked his head, looking at them.

Mike grew talkative as he recalled the past, “Nicky was this adorable when he was younger. Still, it’s a pain in the ass when children get sick. I remember when Nicky was three. He had a terrible fever that wouldn’t go away.

“I had to rush him back from overseas overnight. Thankfully, he got well. However, the doctor told me I must ensure he wouldn’t get severely injured because he has a unique blood type. Yet he…”

Mike got choked up.
