Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers

Chapter 220: An Ominous Person

Maria Julian’s breathing was still very loud. She sounded very uncomfortable as if she couldn’t breathe.

The doctor looked around and frowned. “I’m not sure what happened. I’ve never encountered such an illness before. The attack was so sudden, but there was no cause for it.”

“What should we do now?” Sean Torres asked anxiously.

“The illness isn’t serious, and it won’t endanger her life. Now, I’ll prescribe a medicine for the patient. I’ll also give her an oxygen mask.”

Sean Torres took out the necessary medical equipment from a cabinet next to them. He had used all these things before when Maria Julian was seriously ill. He had been keeping them for emergency use.

Franklin Torres, Quinn Torres, and Bryce Torres were very quiet throughout the incident. They just stood quietly in front of Maria Julian’s bed. They were very nervous.

Especially Sean Torres. He was so nervous that he was trembling.

After inserting the oxygen tube, Maria Julian’s breathing was not so loud anymore.

The doctor had also arranged some sedative drip for her. This small cozy room suddenly became a ward.

After taking care of everything and prescribing the medicine, the doctor bade goodbye to the few of them.

“Franklin, please see Dr. Wentworth off.”

Franklin Torres acknowledged and saw Dr. Wentworth off.

Lauren Torres was still standing in the corner. She did not dare to move. She was like an invisible person.

The medicine in the drip slowly flowed into Maria Julian’s body.

Slowly, the sound of Maria Julian’s breathing subsided. Sean Torres, who had been leaning against the headboard the whole time, finally heaved a sigh of relief.

He stood up and said to Quinn Torres and Bryce Torres, “You guys go out first. Let your mother rest for a while.”

He then looked at Lauren Torres who was in the corner. There was no longer the warmth and gentleness in his eyes when they were shopping in the supermarket.

“You too go out first.”

Lauren Torres bit her lip and followed behind Quinn Torres and Bryce Torres.

A few of them were still in the hallway. Bryce Torres couldn’t wait to turn his head and question Lauren Torres.

“Only you and Mom were downstairs just now. What did you do to make her turn out this way?”

Quinn Torres grabbed Bryce Torres’s wrist, signaling him not to be so worked up.

Bryce Torres shook off Quinn Torres’s hands. “You guys don’t cover up for her anymore. You guys know very well, too! Mom has not had any attack for more than a year now. Although she is weak, she has never been in such a state before. However, after the return of this jinx, Mom has become like this. Don’t tell me you guys still want to speak up for her?”

Bryce Torres seemed to be unable to suppress his anger. The more he spoke, the louder he became, causing Sean Torres to open the door.

“What are you guys doing here? Are you going to let your mother rest or not? Hurry up and leave!”

Sean Torres was anxious, too. He was not in a good mood right now. After saying these words, he closed the door again.

Thus, the few of them in the hallway went to the living room downstairs.

The atmosphere was very cold.

Just then, Wendy had returned from buying vegetables. She was carrying large and small bags of meat and vegetables in her hands.

Seeing that the few of them did not look good, she hurriedly asked what had happened.

After learning that Maria Julian was sick, the anxiety in her eyes was very obvious.

Wendy had been with Maria Julian for many years, and she was treating Maria Julian as her own daughter.

“What’s going on? She has already recovered, hasn’t she? Why did she become like this all of a sudden?”

Knowing that Maria Julian was resting at the moment, Wendy did not rashly go up and disturb her.

“What else could it be? It’s all because of a jinx, an ominous person has returned!”

“Bryce!”

Quinn Torres reminded again.

This time, he sounded very serious. It somehow resembled Franklin Torre’s voice.

“This is what’s happening now. I don’t know why all of you are taking her side. She was the one who caused Mom’s health to be in such a terrible state from the very beginning. Now that you have seen it, it’s true! What do you guys choose now? Mom’s health or her?”

After he finished yelling, Bryce Torres went upstairs angrily.

Wendy sighed in her heart. “What’s going on? Everything was fine before I went out. But after I came back, it turned out to be like this.”

She placed all the vegetables in the refrigerator accordingly.

She had originally wanted to cook something delicious, but now it seemed that no one was in the mood to eat.

After seeing Dr. Wentworth off, Franklin Torres happened to receive a phone call. He answered the call for a while in the small garden. When he came in, he saw Quinn Torres and Lauren Torres sitting on the chairs quietly.

Especially Lauren Torres. She lowered her little head so low that he couldn’t even see her face.

Franklin Torres knew what Lauren Torres was thinking. He walked over and sat down beside her.
