Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 179: A Kiss on the Neck

"Mommy, I’m going to draw now!"

The little one said and then hopped into the art studio.

"Alright, I’ll call you when it’s time to eat."

Sabrina Hayes let out a huge sigh of relief.

She went to the kitchen and instructed Nanny Warren to prepare some dishes the little one liked.

When dinner was served, she saw that Jasper Fitzgerald had sent her a message, asking about Zara’s condition.

"I heard from Dylan Quinlan that Zara had a mishap today, is she okay?"

Sabrina felt warmth in her heart upon seeing this message.

Jordan Hawthorne, under the guise of paternal love, argued with her in front of the child, completely ignoring the impact it might have.

Yet, those unrelated by blood to Zara always offered their concern the moment the little one encountered any issues.

Sabrina did not withhold information from him.

She told Jasper Fitzgerald, "Zara seems to be doing well. I already counseled her when she returned.

Moreover, she is slowly learning to think for herself and knows how to distinguish right from wrong, so she’s not too affected."

Upon seeing her reply, Jasper Fitzgerald said with relief, "That’s good. If anything happens, feel free to reach out to me."

"Okay."

However, it was later that night when Sabrina realized she had relaxed too soon.

Zara started having nightmares in the middle of the night.

Her tiny body curled up under the blanket, crying in her sleep, her soft voice filled with grievance: "Zara is not dumb, Zara did nothing wrong..."

"Daddy doesn’t like me, he bullies Mommy... I hate Daddy..."

"Grandma is bad, Grandpa is bad..."

Sabrina was startled awake, hearing the intermittent, soft voice and seeing the bundled-up figure filled with grievance— her heart felt like it was being crushed.

"Zara, wake up, you’re having a nightmare..."

She tried to wake the child, but as soon as she touched her, she was startled by the scorching heat emanating from the little one’s body.

Zara had a fever!

"It’s okay, Zara, it’s okay, Mommy’s here..."

Sabrina quickly got up to administer fever-reducing measures.

The already asleep Nanny Warren was also alerted and hurried over to help.

After discovering the child’s burning temperature, she worriedly asked, "Miss Sabrina, do we need to go to the hospital?"

"No need, I can handle it."

Sabrina was a doctor, and no one knew Zara’s physical condition better than her, plus there was medicine available at home.

"Alright, I’ll assist you."

Nanny Warren thought she was panicking unnecessarily, realizing that every time the little miss fell ill, wasn’t it always Miss Sabrina who tirelessly took care of her?

Sabrina methodically gave the child medication, wiped her body with alcohol, changed her into clean pajamas, and then soothed her gently.

Although the little one did not wake up, she gradually stopped having nightmares.

But the physical discomfort made her unable to stop whimpering.

Sabrina’s heart ached terribly as she could only keep holding her, until around four or five in the morning when Zara finally settled down.

Sabrina was utterly exhausted, her complexion looking poor.

Nanny Warren noticed this and came over to take Zara back to her bed, concernedly saying, "Miss Sabrina, you should hurry up and rest, I’ll watch over Zara here."

Yet, Sabrina felt no trace of sleepiness, her mood somewhat heavy.

She realized she had been overly optimistic, thinking Zara was fine, when she clearly was affected.

Thinking of the one responsible, Sabrina never felt such hatred towards Jordan Hawthorne as she did now...

Finally, persevering until seven o’clock, she texted Jasper Fitzgerald, asking if he could come over after waking up,

Unexpectedly, the message had only just been sent when Jasper Fitzgerald called.

The man’s voice on the other side of the line gently inquiring, "What happened?"

Sabrina, having not slept all night, speaking with a slightly hoarse voice, quickly relayed Zara’s specific situation to him.

"Her emotions are a bit unstable, she had a high fever at night and said a lot of things. I’m worried she’ll still be affected after waking up, could you please come over..."

Sabrina hadn’t finished speaking when the man promptly agreed, "Okay, I’ll be over soon."

Sabrina couldn’t help but feel moved, but she still told Jasper Fitzgerald, "There’s no need to rush, Zara is still asleep so you don’t have to hurry."

"Okay."

Jasper Fitzgerald agreed.

Yet, he arrived at Sabrina’s house half an hour later.

When the doorbell rang, Sabrina went to open the door.

Like a beam of warm sunlight in the midst of winter, the man appeared.

His handsome face bore a gentle expression, deep black eyes brimming with concern.

"Mr. Fitzgerald, you’re here."

Sabrina’s eyes lit up, feeling like she had found her pillar of support.

Even though she had already told him not to hurry.

Jasper Fitzgerald nodded.

Sabrina quickly made way for him, saying, "Come in."

Jasper Fitzgerald nodded, changed his shoes after entering, and went to the living room with Sabrina.

He glanced at her casually, concernedly asking, "Didn’t sleep all night?"

"Mm." Sabrina did not lie, nodding slightly.

Jasper Fitzgerald wasn’t surprised by this, and then he asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Sabrina Hayes shook her head, "Not yet. Nanny Warren should be almost done."

Just as she was speaking, Nanny Warren carried breakfast out from the kitchen and said, "Miss Sabrina, breakfast is ready. You can come over and eat now."

Jasper Fitzgerald glanced over and said, "Go have breakfast first. I’ve learned about Zara’s situation, and it shouldn’t be a big problem.

When people are sleeping, their psychological defenses are relatively weak. Some past events may enter their dreams and indeed affect their mental state.

However, I think Zara is a strong child. She won’t be easily crushed in reality. After she wakes up, I will treat and guide her, ensuring nothing happens to her."

Sabrina Hayes was still a little worried.

Jasper Fitzgerald noticed and chuckled softly, asking her, "Don’t trust me?"

Sabrina Hayes met his gaze.

The man’s voice was warm, low, his demeanor calm and gentle. Just standing there, he somehow filled others with a sense of security.

He had never let her down...

Without much hesitation, Sabrina Hayes said, "I trust you!"

Jasper Fitzgerald spoke in a relaxed tone, "Since that’s the case, go eat, and rest a bit afterwards. Leave the rest to me."

Sabrina Hayes didn’t refuse any longer and asked, "Mr. Fitzgerald, coming so early, you probably haven’t eaten either, right? If you don’t mind, care to join me for a meal?"

"Alright."

Jasper Fitzgerald didn’t refuse either.

Nanny Warren quickly prepared new bowls and chopsticks.

Sabrina Hayes and Jasper Fitzgerald sat down to eat together.

The two talked intermittently, and Sabrina Hayes’s mood gradually improved from the gloom...

She realized that as long as Jasper Fitzgerald was around, she could completely relax.

After the two finished breakfast, Zara also woke up.

Sabrina Hayes hurriedly went to see the child.

The young cub had fallen ill, and upon waking, became exceptionally clingy, not as lively as before.

Aside from greeting, she didn’t talk much, and unlike before, didn’t take the initiative to hug Jasper Fitzgerald, with her eyes only on Mommy.

Sabrina Hayes watched her and felt worried but didn’t know how to fix it.

Jasper Fitzgerald naturally saw it too.

He spoke gently to the little cub, "Zara was sick last night. Mommy took care of you all night and was very tired. Can Uncle hold you now?"

Zara had always liked him. Hearing this, she didn’t refuse, nodded obediently, and let Jasper Fitzgerald hold her.

The little cub, soft and nestled in Jasper Fitzgerald’s arms, resembled a compliant kitten.

Sabrina Hayes took this opportunity to feed her some porridge.

Zara ate it one bite at a time, especially obedient.

Nanny Warren watched from the side and had a strange feeling.

It seemed like this was a true family of three...

Mr. Fitzgerald acted more like Zara’s father than the other.

No, what kind of father is Jordan Hawthorne?

How can a father be like that, simply not human!

After breakfast, Sabrina Hayes fed Zara her medicine.

Perhaps the fever had subsided, as the child looked a bit more energized.

Jasper Fitzgerald saw her regain strength and took her to play in the children’s room.

This children’s room collected all the toys that Zara liked.

Though not as grand as The Hawthorne Family’s playground, it was still a small children’s paradise.

In this environment, Zara’s mood was easier to lift.

Sabrina Hayes was still worried, so she watched from the side.

However, as it turned out, her worry was unnecessary this time.

Just as Jasper Fitzgerald said, Zara was affected in her dreams, but with some guidance, her emotions gradually returned to normal in reality.

It was only due to the weakness after illness that she seemed a bit listless.

Of course, Jasper Fitzgerald’s presence was undeniably crucial.

Sabrina Hayes could see that he used the right methods to heal Zara, ensuring she wasn’t affected by nightmares.

Only then did her tense nerves relax completely, and she drifted off to sleep on the sofa.

Nanny Warren entered just as she saw her sleeping on the sofa.

"Why is Miss Sabrina sleeping here? The weather is still cold, even with the heating inside, it might be easy to catch a chill..."

His words also caught the attention of Zara and Jasper Fitzgerald.

Seeing Nanny Warren seemed about to wake her, Jasper Fitzgerald promptly intervened.

He quietly told Nanny Warren, "Don’t wake her. She hasn’t slept all night and must be exhausted. Let her have a good rest; I’ll take her back."

Nanny Warren had no objections.

She watched Jasper Fitzgerald skillfully lift her mid-waist and carry her back to the room.

Sabrina Hayes slept soundly and remained completely unaware.

But as Jasper Fitzgerald was putting her down, something unexpected happened.

Sabrina Hayes felt weightless in her sleep, shivered lightly, and instinctively reached out to grasp something, tugging at Jasper Fitzgerald’s clothing.

The move was a bit wide, pressing the two together, and her soft lips grazed the man’s neck.

The warm, soft touch startled Jasper Fitzgerald, causing him to lose focus almost pressing her onto the bed.
