Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 874

As soon as Rachel opened the door, she saw Joey lying in the bed.

Although Joey’s fever had broken, his face was still pale.

His saline was half empty.

Rachel walked quietly towards the bed and gently felt

Joey’s forehead.

Joey hadn’t been in deep sleep, and as soon as he felt a cool hand on his forehead, he woke up.

His vision was blurred, but he could make out that the person was Rachel.

“Mommy.”

“I’m here, sweetheart.” Rachel w

ithdrew her hand.

“How are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort? Would you like to have swater?”

Rachel poured a glass of warm water and helped Joey sit up.

As she helped him drink the water, she reminded him, “Be careful.

Don’t touch your hand, or the needle will move.”

Once Joey drank swater, his vision cleared, and he fixed his big eyes on Rachel’s face.

Rachel kept the glass aside and frowned in confusion.

“What’s wrong?

Are you feeling sick? Is your head hurting?”

Joey shook his head.

He said in a low voice, “No.”

“Then what..”

Before Rachel could ask more, Joey’s eyes turned red, and huge tears rolled down his cheeks.

At first, his lips trembled, and then suddenly, he burst out crying.

Rachel was shocked.

It was the first tthat Rachel had seen Joey cry like this because he had always been stronger and more sensible than other kids.

Back in the alliance, Joey had been bullied a couple of times.

But he never ccrying to her or Quintin.

Instead, he would plot his revenge against those kids that bullied him.

This was why Rachel sometimes thought that she needed her son more than he needed her.

Used to seeing Joey tough all the time, Rachel panicked when she saw him cry.

Perhaps he was too mature for his age that she had almost forgotten that her son was only three years old.

How could she leave him alone in the Sue Garden? Feeling guilty, Rachel held Joey in her arms and comforted him in a soft voice.

“Hush now, Joey.

Mommy is here.”

After a while, Joey gradually calmed down.

But he didn’t leave

Rachel’s arms.

“Are you tired?” Noticing that Joey stopped crying, Rachel pulled away and gently wiped the tears off his face.

She didn’t ask him why he cried and instead asked him if he was tired.

“Mommy… Did I scare you?”

Rachel felt a pang of pain in her heart when she heard this.
