The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter-Chapter 828 Little Ones
Titania brought Ella to visit Liam. Leo was there sitting on a chair beside Liam's sickbed. Dos continued examining the two patients, trying to figure out how he would develop a drug using the technologies available in the facility.
Dos, the genius scientist and a doctor, was hoping that he could see a breakthrough with this, helping Liam and Tristan to recover fast. Both of them didn't show any improvement.
Ella felt heartbroken seeing the situation of her idol, Liam.
"Mom, will big bro Liam survive this?" Ella glanced at her mother with hopeful eyes.
Titania patted her head and responded, "Of course, he will. He is a strong man. Let's just wait for them to wake up. Your cousin, Zhen-Zhen, and your Uncle Zu Wan are doing their best to save them. Of course, there are lots of people praying for their recovery."
"The doctor, nurses, and staff here were also doing their best," Titania added, stroking Ella's hair.
"Okay, Mom. I will trust them," said the little girl, but her eyes seemed like crying once again.
"Mom, I want to stay here for a while together with Big Bro Leo. Can I do that?"
Titania nodded her head in approval of her daughter's request. "Okay, Ella. Just behave here. Don't roam around as you might get lost."
Titania asked Leo to watch over Ella. Leo just smiled at her, reassuring her that Ella would be fine. He knew she was a well-behaved and obedient child.
Ella stayed in Liam's ward for several minutes before she went out to gather her emotions. She was just a kid but she already felt sad seeing Tristan and Liam in that dire situation.
She already said goodbye to Leo, telling him she would go to Tristan's ward. But right after Ella left Liam's ward, she burst out crying while leaning on the wall.
A cute and adorable little girl was crying all alone in the hallway. This scene attracted another little one who was passing by that corridor.
Ella stopped crying as she noticed someone else's presence. When she raised her head she saw a little boy who seemed to be at the same age as her.
He was giving her a handkerchief while looking at her with fascination in his eyes.
'She looks cute even when crying,' Flint thought to himself, smiling at Ella. He liked her blue eyes. They were as clear as the blue sky.
"Are you okay? Why are you crying? Are you hurt somewhere?" Flint asked Ella worriedly.
He tagged along with his Uncle Uno. Then he heard the news that Tristan Davis was being treated in this facility. He wanted to see if he was okay so he went to the ward.
While he was on the way to visit Tristan, he saw Ella crying in the hallway. He couldn't ignore her. Then he was surprised at how pretty and adorable she was upon seeing her face.
"I'm crying because I'm sad. The person I like is ill and I can't do anything to help him," Ella responded, wiping her tears using the handkerchief given by Flint.
Flint patted her head. Then he picked something inside his pocket– a lollipop! He gave it to Ella.
"Here. Take this. I hope it will help you cheer up. Don't worry. Fiery Eagles will not let them die. They are capable and top-notch!" Flint comforted Ella, reassuring her that nothing would happen to Liam and Tristan. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖
"Thank you," she mumbled with her hoarse voice before taking the lollipop from Flint's hand.
The little guy smiled charmingly at Ella. "What's your name?" he asked her directly. They had been talking there but they hadn't introduced themselves to each other yet. "I'm Flint, a future member of Fiery Eagles."
"I'm Ella."
"Wow. What a nice name! Nice meeting you, Ella!"
The two little kids shook each other's hands.
"Oh, here you are! I told you not to go around without telling me!" A voice of a middle-aged man was heard, catching the attention of the two children. It was Uno, Flint's Uncle.
Uno arched his eyebrow upon seeing Flint holding Ella's hand. He looked at his nephew suspiciously when he noticed Ella's puffy eyes.
"Hey, Flint! Did you bully her? Why did you make her cry?!" Uno suddenly jumped to a conclusion, making Flint facepalm in front of him.
"No, Sir! He didn't bully me. Don't misunderstand. He is not the one who made me cry. He comforted me," Ella defended Flint to his Uncle, correcting Uno's wrong assumption.
"See, Uncle! How can you jump to a conclusion, accusing me without evidence? Hmm. That's so uncool, Uncle! Tsk, tsk." Flint clicked his tongue, lecturing his Uncle.
Uno could only smile sheepishly, feeling embarrassed and apologetic towards his nephew.
"Oh, sorry about that. My nephew often bullies little kids, especially girls so I thought he was the one who made you cry!"
"Uncle!" Flint reacted right away, raising his voice while complaining to his Uncle. "How can you speak badly about your own nephew?! Ella might misunderstand it. You made me look like a bad kid." Flint cared so much about what Ella would think about him.
"Well, I didn't say you are a bad kid. But you are a naughty nephew of mine!" Uno retorted, making Flint glare at him further.
Watching their bickering, Ella couldn't help but laugh. The duo looked so cute while arguing and debating in front of her. Her giggles caught their attention.
Flint couldn't help but be infatuated with her. She looked prettier when smiling.
"There! You finally smile! You should smile very often. You look pretty!" Flint complimented her.
Uno was rendered speechless. This was the first time he saw his nephew behave like this. He looked like an adult wooing a woman. For goodness's sake, he was still a kid! Where did he learn that pick-up line?! It's not definitely from him!
It did not take long when Titania also arrived to fetch Ella. They had to go home now and return this afternoon. When Titania reached their spot, she greeted Uno politely. The two said goodbye to Uno and Flint.
Flint just watched Ella's back until she vanished from his sight. After that, Uno started teasing his nephew!
