In the living room, Theo walked in with a paper bag of breakfast When he saw Maeve, he ran over and said

childishly. "Mom, you're awake. Cand have breakfast quickly!"

Maeve did not see Byron anywhere and heaved a sigh of relief. Thank goodness he's not here!"

"Darling, did you go out just now?" Maeve asked.

"| did." Theo replied. "You were drunk and didn't eat much last night. | figured you might be starving this

morning, so | bought you oatmeal."

Maeve was touched by how considerate Theo w

She pecked on his cheek and sat down to eat breakfast.

"By the way, | saw a man walking out from here just now. What happened? Theo tilted his head curiously. It was

out of the ordinary that his cheap father would show up at such a time. Maeve choked on her oatmeal. She

wiped her mouth with a tissue and asked, "Did he see you?"

"No, he's walking quite fast."

However, that was not the case. Theo was short and had a paper bag to cover his face. So, Byron did not notice

him.

That's good." Maeve reminded him sternly, "He cto collect protection fees. He likes to kidnap children. If you

meet him next time, run immediately. Do you understand? You're my only son."

Theo chuckled, thinking Maeve should've cup with a better reason to fool him. He nodded regardless. "Got

it. The next t| see him, I'll call the police and get them to arrest him!" "That's even better, Darling. I'm glad

you know what to do."

Maeve and Theo were busy with their thoughts as they ate, pretending as if nothing had happened. Maeve

stirred the oatmeal inside her bowl. Thinking about what had happened last night gave her a headache that was

worse than a hangover. She also had to go to the hospital later. Damn it, Byron. You almost broke my hip. Has he

run out of sex partners? She tried lo

move on despite her body still aching and determined not to let such a thing happen again.

After breakfast, Maeve packed up and prepared to take Theo to the hospital to see Gilbert. But before she left,

she received call from her studio. A client wanted to get engaged and wished to talk to her.

Maeve held the key to the fitting room and was put in a difficult position. Gilbert's treatment had been set and

could not be postponed. However, she couldn't ignore a client. Especially since her stuwas struggling

financially.

"Mom, don't worry. You can dropat the hospital before going to the studio. Theo patted the back of Maeve's

hand and said gently. "It's not a big deal. | can handle it."

"No, I'm worried about you going alone." Alexis and Jason were cunning. She didn't want Theo to have a hard

twhen she was not around.

"Mom, don't worry." Theo patted her. "I'm capable of handling things on my own. If they plan anything nasty, |

guarantee | can outsmart them!"

Maeve chuckled. That was true. With Theo's shrewdness, he shouldn't be easily cornered. Maeve was worried

mainly because her head was in a mess.

Half an hour later, Maeve sent Theo to the hospital. After reminding him to call her if there was anything, she

drove to the studio. Theo immediately walked into the hospital, changed his appearance, and walked into the

ward with his hands behind his back. Alexis and Jason were already there.

Chapter 239

There was also someone sitting on the sofa. He was reading a book titled "Profound Meanings of Psychology’ in

his hand. His dark hair fell gently under his eyebrows, and his face was soft. His lips were red, and his nose was

straight. He looked quiet and beautiful. Theo's eyebrows lit up. Isn't he supposed to be my brother?

"Dr. Chatterly, you're finally here! Alexis stood up with a smile. Dr. Walker said that after the last medical

treatment, his senses recovered. This is all thanks to you!"

Theo nodded coldly. I'm glad to hear that. I'll give your father the streatment shortly."

"Okay, okay, okay. Thank you, Doctor, Chatterly! Alexis looked happy.

Will looked over and saw Theo's face after changing his appearance. He also had his hands behind his back like

an elder. For sreason, he sensed something fishy about that ‘Doctor. He thought briefly and asked, "Do you

have a medical license?" Alexis was stunned. This was the first tWill had taken the initiative to talk to

someone. Usually, he ignored everyone except his family.

When Theo heard this question, he reached out to his bag and took out several documents.

"Hold on, | have several licenses. It's troublesto find it, Theo said, pretending to be troubled.

When Will saw the pile of documents in his arms, he was puzzled. 'How old is he? Can such a young man obtain

so many qualifications?"

Soon, Theo found his medical permit and waved it before Will Look carefully. This is issued by the Erancia Royal

Family

Theo immediately put it back before Will could take a closer look. He did it on purpose.

"Alright, | should get back to work. Kids shouldn't cause trouble, Theo said to Will like an adult and walked in.

Will found it funny. Aren't you too young

The treatment lasted more than ten minutes. The medical team had been recording by the side. When it was

over, they immediately cover and asked Theo squestions. Theo didn't hide anything and told them

everything he knew. After answering their questions, Theo saw the quiet and steady Will standing beside Alexis.

Theo rolled his eyes and said, "Ma'am, | have sadvice.

"Tell me, Dr. Chatterly."

"My medical treatment stimulates Mr. McDaniel's physical senses. However, there's also a mental therapy that's

equally effective for the patient. Are you willing to give it a try?" Theo asked, pretending to be profound.

Alexis and Jason looked at each other. "What do you want us to do, Dr, Chatterly?"

"Well..." Theo looked around at them. "Who among you i

is the old Mr. McDaniel loves most?"

Of course, it had to be Will. Although he was born when Gilbert began to fall ill, he had been talking about

wanting to have at great-grandson for a long time. Byron had already thought of a nfor his future child even

before he got married. Will inadvertently saw the sly look in Theo's eyes and suddenly had a bad feeling. What is

he up to?

"What | need now is for the person Mr. McDaniel values most to say a few words beside him. | need them to do it

daily. That way, it can stimulate his mental activity, Theo added.

Alexis turned around and asked Will softly, "Will, are you willing
