The Runaway Groom novel Chapter 1082

"Doctor!"

Lulu, however, clearly did not hear Zachary and turned around to the pediatrician. "She's very young. Wouldn't this cause chronic conditions?"

The pediatrician shook his head as he wrote a prescription. "You're worried now? It's like you were incapable of that earlier. Just remember how important caring for children is and that you must constantly keep an eye out to prevent this from happening again. Your baby could've suffered from brain damage if you'd brought her here any later!"

Lulu nodded repeatedly.

After getting Luna's medicine from the pharmacy, Luna was already given an injection.

Lulu felt her body weak from head to toe as she left the pediatrics department, and Zachary could see that she was exceedingly enfeebled. He wanted to offer a supporting hand, but his body stopped him.

Still, seeing that she cared so much about her child, he suddenly sighed. "It's my fault. Erma was unreliable… but I'm sure I'll be relieved with you now!"

Lulu turned and smiled at him, even deliberately mentioning Stan. "With your generous salary? I'd be doing you an injustice if I failed, Mr. Slate. You're my cousin's friend too, so I'll need to do my best based on that alone or that would drive a wedge between you two!"

Their exchange was formal, and the journey back to Zachary's home was silent.

Luna was asleep and quiet, her flushed cheeks returning to normal.

Lulu's expression was tender even as she looked at her.

Still, just as they were about to head upstairs, Zachary suddenly asked, "By the way, may I ask where you live, Ms. Jones?"

"What?" Lulu became nervous right then.

"Please take this, Ms. Jones," Zachary said, taking out a debit card after closing the door.

"W-Why?" Lulu was surprised by the sudden offer.

Why a debit card? Could Zachary have caught on?

"I don't spend much time home, and you might not be able to reach me at times. Hold on to this just in case!" Zacahry said, turning toward Luna, who was sleeping soundly with rosy cheeks.

He was not lying when he said that he was busy—work has been piling ever since he had been abroad for a while. That was why he could not spend more time at home and could not even tell that his baby was sick.

"If something urgent like this happens again, or there's something my baby needs, just use this card. I'll deposit money in it from time to time, and you'll probably see some use for it!"
