You're The Best Medicine For Me novel Chapter 29

In the past years, in order to exact revenge, she had spent much time on the blending of fragrance and learning psychological skills. She forgot that these two children of hers needed an adult’s love and care.

She didn’t even notice anything unusual about them.

This was all because of her carelessness as a mother.

Despite still feeling angry, most of her fury had evaporated thanks to this little kid’s words.

It seemed that Bryan hadn’t suspected their identities yet. Coupled with the fact that their faces had all those stickers, Shirley felt like she could put herself at ease.

“We are going home now!” She got some tissue papers from the table to clean Emma’s moist cheeks.

Then, she looked at Jacob.

Jacob looked up to meet her eyes while his hand was fidgeting with a toy gun. Then, he jumped down from the chair and put back the toy gun on the table before jogging towards Shirley.

They knew very well that Shirley didn’t have it easy to survive till this day, and it could be said that both his and his sister’s life were saved by her.

They would never resort to rebelling and throwing tantrum against their mother.

Jacob pulled Shirley’s hand and said, “Mummy, let’s go home.”

Shirley tightened her grip on his hand, and she turned around to leave.

Before she could move away, Bryan caught up to him. He stood in their way with the toy gun in his hand, “This toy gun is a gift for Jacob.”

Shirley frowned at him, and she still felt a frustration at him. However, she needed private space to have a talk with him.

She put Emma on the ground and announced, “We need to talk.”

Bryan was very cooperative. He called Jordan to summon him. Jordan came in and took the children away. When they were leaving, he shoved the toy gun into Jacob’s hands.

“Let’s sit.” He pulled a chair on the side in a gentlemanly gesture.

However, Shirley didn’t sit down on that chair. She directly pulled another chair nearer to her and sat down.

She never once allowed her gaze to connect with him.

She didn’t dare to do that, as if once she did that, the things from her past would all resurface.

Bryan’s expression darkened as his grip on the chair became tensed. He went back to his chair while saying, “You have scared the children.”

“Mr. Moore, this job…”

“You’re trying to forsake your duty, aren’t you?” Before she could finish, Bryan interrupted her menacingly.

She looked up abruptly and saw the man’s bloodshot eyes.

She had seen many stubborn and weird patients, but Bryan was the one and only patient who had intruded into her private life thus far. The most important part of this was that he was the two children’s biological father.

Although she was being selfish, she still wanted to hide the children away to the point that it would be best if he never learnt of the existence of his two children.

“I’m not trying to resign. This time, I want to make it clear to you that your personal antics have troubled me greatly. I plan to book an early flight tomorrow morning to go back to America. You can look for another psychologist.” Besides this, there was nothing more she wanted to tell him.

She stood up looking like she was about to leave.

Bryan lashed out and grabbed her wrist, “I just brought them out to have fun. Why are you making me look like I’m trying to take your children away? The way you are behaving, I am starting to suspect whether those two are my flesh and blood.”

Immediately after he said this, he was stunned by his own words.

How could this be?

Six years ago, he only had an intimate relationship with Sabina. If he really had a child out there, he would have known who the mother was.

However, Shirley was so spooked that her body had gone cold. She was even stammering, “You… How could you… be the children’s father? You’re one crazy bastard who sees other’s children as yours.”

When Bryan noticed something unusual with her facial expression, he tightened his grip on her wrist and took a big step forward. His sharp gaze met her eyes, “You look like you are guilty about something. So those children are mine?”
