Chapter 565:
I wanted to turn him down, but then Lucas told me he was already downstairs. My heart softened, and I didn’t have the heart to refuse him, so I let Lucas come up.
Soon, Lucas arrived, but Herbert didn’t come with him. Perhaps it was because of the tension between Herbert and me that he hadn’t seen me for a month. When Lucas came in, Lucky had just woken up and started crying. I hadn’t finished pumping yet, but Lucky’s cries were too much, so I stopped and went to pick her up. Lucas, ever well-behaved, took care of his sister and even helped me get some water.
At noon, I prepared lunch for both Lucas and Lucky.
Lucas ate nearly everything, and although Lucky was still fussy, she was hungry and began to eat. Finally, I felt some relief. I had been so busy the entire morning that I hadn’t had time to pump again. My breasts felt swollen and hard, and even the slightest touch made them ache. The pain was unbearable, and I could barely keep my eyes open.
I quickly asked Lucas to look after Lucky while I went to the bathroom. I took out the breast pump once more, but it was much harder to extract the milk this time. I struggled for a long time, but nothing came out.
The pain worsened, and soon I started to run a fever.
In my current state, going to the clinic alone was nearly impossible, let alone with two children in tow. I found some fever medicine and took it, hoping it would help. I thought if I could just get a little better, I could take the kids to the clinic and have my breasts checked.

But two hours later, not only had the fever not subsided, it had gotten worse.
At that moment, Lucky snuggled up to me and began crying again. I didn’t have the strength to tend to her. I could only frown and watch her with a heavy heart, too exhausted to do anything.
“Lucky, Mummy… is really uncomfortable. Don’t cry, OK?” I said.
Lucas held her chubby hands and kept taking toys and food for her.
“Lucky, don’t make trouble. Mummy’s sick, OK?”
“Sob… Mummy… Mummy…”
But Lucky was young and ignorant. She threw all the things Lucas gave her away and kept pulling at the clothes on my chest with her little hands.
My breasts hurt so much. Now that her little fat hand was touching them, I felt even more uncomfortable.
“Don’t touch Mummy again!”
Lucas worriedly moved Lucky to the other side of the bed. Lucky was unhappy and burst into tears. Seeing her crying made my heart ache. I struggled to get up but my whole body was in pain and I couldn’t stand.
Lucas’ POV:
Mummy looked terrible today. Lucky had been crying for a long time and Mummy looked very painful. Goodness, this situation was too messy.
It wasn’t something a kid like me could handle. I needed Daddy’s help. I found my mum’s phone and hid in the bathroom to make a call. Why did I have to hide to use the phone? Because my parents were still fighting. If my mum found out, she might stop me.
“Hello?
