His Eagle Eyes on Me

Firstly, Hayden had high standards. In the past twenty years, he had not shown any interest in women, which indicated that he was not the type to play around. Once he was committed to someone, he was unlikely to change his mind.

Secondly, Hayden had taken the initiative to visit Shelly's home, suggesting that they were not far from going public with their relationship.

After finishing the video call with his mother, Hayden went to the front yard to find the children.

Mrs. Taylor had laid out a children's crawling mat in the yard for the two kids to play on.

It was warm outside, and the weather during this season was temperate, and it was fine to bask in the sun like this.

Upon seeing Hayden come out, Mrs. Taylor immediately said, "I'm letting the kids soak up some sun to absorb Vitamin D. The pediatrician mentioned it during Audrey's check-up. They said it's good for the children's health to spend more time outdoors."

Hayden nodded and said, "Why don't you take a break inside while I keep an eye on them?"

"Alright. I'll go cook," Mrs. Taylor planned to personally prepare a meal for Hayden.

After she went inside, Shelly came out holding a fruit platter.

"Shelly, your mom said that she is going to cook. Why not get the servant to do it?" He asked.

"My mom is great at cooking. I told you before, right? If she wants to cook, let her!" Shelly said, sitting down on the mat and feeding the two children some grapes.

Hayden watched the two kids eagerly devouring the grapes, and a smile unconsciously formed on his lips.

"Don't fight over them, each of you gets one. Mommy doesn't play favorites," Shelly patiently coaxed while feeding the children.

She had even gone to the lengths of removing the grape seeds, so there was no need to worry about the kids choking.

"Do you want to try? These grapes taste really good," Shelly turned to Hayden and asked.

Hayden nodded and took a piece of grape.

Indeed, it was a delicious balance of sweet and sour.

The pleasant day quickly came to an end.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

In the evening, after Hayden had dinner with the kids, they returned to Elliot's mansion.

About three hours later, Hayden received a call from Shelly.

"Hayden, my mom had severe stomach pain after dinner, so I brought her to the hospital for an examination. Turns out it's

appendicitis, and the doctor says et

she needs surgery, so I won't be able to go home tonight. I have to stay at the hospital to take care of my mom," Shelly explained, hesitating for a moment before adding, "There's no one apart from the servants at home, and I'm worried about Audrey."

Hayden had just finished taking a shower when she called.

He immediately walked to the wardrobe and said, "I'll go over and stay there tonight. How's your mom doing?"

"She's currently receiving

intravenous therapy. The doctor

suggested performing the surgery as soon as possible. It will probably be scheduled for the day after tomorrow," Shelly replied. "So, these next few days, I'll have to trouble you to take care of Audrey."

"Send me your location, and I'll come to see your mom." Hayden remembered how busy Mrs. Taylor had been today, preparing two sumptuous meals to treat him, and he was very grateful.

He had not expected Mrs. Taylor to be admitted to a hospital.

"Sure." Shelly hesitated as she wondered for a moment if she was causing Hayden any trouble, but she was feeling very anxious alone in the hospital.

It was a minor procedure, and since Mrs. Taylor did not wish to worry Shelly's father and brother, she had asked Shelly to keep it a secret.

Shelly sent her location to Hayden, who arrived at the hospital in half an hour.

When Hayden noticed that Mrs. Taylor was staying in a room with seven other patients, he frowned.
