The woman hesitated for a moment. Then, she said, "But Miss Lawrence doesn't allow us to go out."

Actually, Nicole had arranged a bodyguard for the woman and the little boy. It was just that the bodyguard took a leave today because of a stomachache. That was why the woman and the little boy were left in the house alone. They didn't expect that the danger would come at this moment.

Raegan noticed the little boy was silent all the time and seemed dazed. She couldn't help frowning and saying concernedly, "What happened today will have a negative impact on this boy. It's better for you to stay in the hotel tonight while I arrange the new place for you. Then, I will let Nicole call you. What do you think?"

When the little boy heard Nicole's name, he finally reacted. He looked up at Raegan and asked, "When will Nicole come to see me?"

“Austin! You..." the woman suddenly shouted. She didn't expect Austin to ask such a question.

Austin had never talked over the past month, let alone to speak with someone he had just met for the first time.

Raegan stared at Austin's face, having finally pinpointed the cause of her sense of familiarity upon seeing him. Though feeling sorry for him, she tried hard to hold back her tears and pretended to be calm.

“Is your name Austin?"

Austin nodded gently.

Raegan smiled and patted his head. "I'll tell Nicole you want to see her, okay?"

Austin withdrew his gaze, lowered his head, and fell silent again.

Raegan took Austin and the woman to the hotel.

Recalling Ardlens was Mitchel's territory, Raegan decided to spend the night in Ashfield. She intended to take them to a safer place tomorrow.

On their way to the hotel, Austin suddenly had a fever.

The woman panicked since she didn't bring the medicine with her.

Besides, there was the last dosage left.

Raegan hurriedly took out the black duffel bag entrusted by Nicole and fed Austin with the medicine.

However, Austin's temperature didn't subside at all. Raegan began to worry, pondering the need to visit a hospital.

But the woman simply shook her head, saying, “Austin just needs some antipyretics. His immune system is weak, so it won't do him any good to go to the hospital. He is more likely to get infected by some viruses there."

Finally, they arrived at the hotel.
