Nora, who had seen family members of patients that were even more unreasonable, wasn’t bothered. Instead, she wrote: ‘Jimmy is likely suffering from encephalitis.’

She was about to send the message after drafting it when she suddenly saw a message prompt:

‘You have been kicked out of the group chat by the administrator.’

Nora, “?”

She raised her eyebrows and stared at her phone for a while. A brief moment later, she scoffed and opened Cherry’s chat window. Then, she sent a message to Pete: ‘He is likely suffering from encephalitis. Have his father take him to the hospital for a checkup.’

Doctors should be benevolent.

The child was still so young. She didn’t want to let the matter go unchecked.

Neither would she lower herself to his parent’s level.

After sending the message, she lay down and got ready to sleep.

At the kindergarten.

Pete walked over to Jimmy after reading Nora’s message and relayed her words to him.

Jimmy was so frightened that he burst into tears at once. “Sob! I have encephalitis! Am I going to die?!”


Ms. Lynn was dumbfounded when Jimmy burst into tears. She tried to coax him, but he cried and asked for his mother instead.

As a result, Ms. Lynn could only give Jimmy’s mother a call.

Jimmy’s mother was a hot-tempered and straightforward woman. After receiving the teacher’s call, she went straight to the school swiftly and resolutely.

She spotted Jimmy, who was crying so hard that he couldn’t breathe, right away.

Jimmy’s mother panicked at once. “What’s wrong? Did your classmates bully you?”

A sobbing Jimmy replied, “Mommy, I’m dying. I have a very serious illness. Sob…”

His mother frowned and asked, “Who told you that?”

“Cherry did.”

Jimmy’s mother became furious at once. She shouted at Ms. Lynn, “Who is Cherry?!”

Ms. Lynn wanted to stop her, but Jimmy’s mother, who was a tall and thick woman, was simply too strong. She pushed Ms. Lynn away, entered the classroom, and demanded, “Where is Cherry?”

Pete stood up leisurely and frowned.

At the sight of him, Jimmy’s mother immediately broke into a rant. She said, “Why did you say such nonsense to Jimmy? Don’t you know that it’s not right to scare kids?! Apologize to Jimmy at once!”

Jimmy was holding his mother’s hand. The five-year-old boy looked confused—obviously, he didn’t know what was going on.

He shook his mother’s hand and said, “Mommy, Cherry wasn’t trying to scare me. My head hurts. I really am sick…”

“What do you mean you’re sick?” Jimmy’s mother’s expression turned cold and she said, “It’s normal for a child to experience headaches and fevers. Besides, your head always stops hurting every time you get home. Moreover, people in our family are all in good health. What kind of sickness can you possibly be down with? What kind of nonsense are you saying?”


It wasn’t that Jimmy’s mother didn’t care about her son. It was just that every time she took Jimmy home during the last few incidents, his head would always stop hurting whenever they were about to go to the hospital.
