Chapter 1402 Anders Cries

Anders watched the two unfamiliar faces inching close and staring at him. After blinking a few times, his tiny lips trembled, and he started crying. His reaction left Natalie and Shane flustered.

It was not their first time being a parent, but their first child was born a healthy, full-term baby. Thus, they were not so flustered when their child started crying. Instead, they would only wonder if the child was hungry or had made a number two. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Anders, however, was different. He was born prematurely and had a weak body. Thus, the first thought that came to their mind when he cried was not the aforementioned thoughts. Rather, they wondered if he was feeling unwell. That was why Natalie panicked so much.

Shane’s method of panicking was drastically different. Since he was not around when Connor and Sharon were babies, he did not understand what was going on when Anders cried.

Regardless, his mind was still functioning rationally, and he quickly pressed the emergency call button. Soon, the doctor and nurses rushed over. In a state of panic, Natalie grabbed Dr. Holden’s arm. “Dr. Holden, please check on Anders. Why is he crying?”

“Okay, okay. I’ll take a look now. Please calm down, Mrs. Thompson,” Dr. Holden comforted her. He pulled his arm out of her grip and went over to check on Anders.

Shane held onto Natalie. “There, there. Calm down. Don’t panic. Anders will be fine.”

Natalie bit her lip. “Shane, did you know? To me, Anders is like a fragile porcelain doll that’s easily broken. Once he starts crying, I’ll panic, worried he might be feeling pain in his body.”

“I know. I feel the same way, but we can’t keep thinking like this. We’ve got to change our mindset. After all, it’s usually a normal phenomenon for babies to cry. It’s not healthy for him and us if we keep

wondering whether he’s sick whenever he cries.”

Natalie nodded. “I know. I’m just too worried about Anders—”

“Okay. Let’s stop talking for now. Let’s hear what they have to say first.” Shane pointed at Dr. Holden and the other medical staff.

Natalie knew she would be disturbing them if she continued talking. Thus, she took a deep breath to calm herself and sealed her mouth shut.

Several minutes later, Dr. Holden approached them.

Natalie took a step forward and asked right away, “Dr. Holden, how’s my son?”

“Don’t worry, Mr. and Mrs. Thompson. Anders is fine. He’s just never seen you two. That’s why he was a little frightened and cried when he suddenly saw you. He’s fine now. Anders has gone back to sleep,” explained Dr. Holden while adjusting his glasses.

Natalie heaved a huge sigh of relief. “I see. That’s great. I was just worried he’d be feeling unwell.”

She patted her chest to calm her pounding heart.

Shane, too, felt relieved. “All right. Don’t think too much and get yourself all worked up. You need to relax and stop being so anxious, thinking something might happen to Anders. He’s not as weak as you think. You need to relax. If not, you’ll only make yourself ill when Anders is fine.”

“Mr. Thompson is right, Mrs. Thompson. You’re too anxious over Anders’ condition. You really need to relax and change your mindset. Otherwise, you’ll fall ill easily.” Dr. Holden nodded in agreement.

Deep down, Natalie knew she was a little too sensitive, nervous, and concerned about Anders’ matters.

However, she could not help herself from feeling that way. After all, he was her son, the youngest son to whom she owed the most. It was impossible for her to not feel nervous.

Then again, they were right. She really needed to relax. Otherwise, she would fall sick from all the stress. Not only would she not be able to work, but she also would not even be in the right state to visit Anders.

At that thought, Natalie took a deep breath and patted her cheeks to clear her head. She said calmly, “I understand. I’ll learn to relax and change my mindset.”

Shane caressed her hair. “That’s good to hear. Let’s leave now. Our visitation time is up. We’ll come again tomorrow to visit Anders. I believe he’ll be more familiar with us and won’t cry anymore after a few more visits.”
