Chapter 88 — Just be normal!

Denzel shook his head. "I'm fine. I can handle it," Denzel said, cuddling Berli affectionately.

Unexpectedly for Denzel, the woman moved onto his lap and reunited her body with his. She swayed erotically on Denzel's lap, making him close his eyes and enjoy the service she provided. It took them 30 minutes to finish their heated activities. Now, Berli walked to the bathroom and briefly washed her body and face. She then put on her clothes while Denzel was still in the bathroom.

After getting dressed, Berli and Denzel left their new home and went out to find dinner for themselves.

"Morning, love!" Petra greeted, hugging Lyyana from behind. She kissed Lyyana's neck and caressed her flat stomach.

"Morning... love," Lyyana replied shyly.

"What was that? I didn't quite hear it clearly?" Petra asked because this was the first time Lyyana had called her "love."

"Ish." Instead of answering, Lyyana gently pinched Petra's stomach, causing him to wince in pain.

"Thank you for accepting me and staying here. You are the half of soul and color in my life," Petra expressed.

Lyyana turned around, wrapping her arms around Petra's neck. "Thank you for choosing me," she said.

Petra kissed Lyyana's lush lips, briefly indulging in it as the bathroom door opened, and Garret emerged from there with a towel wrapped around his entire body. "Dad!" Garret exclaimed, running towards Petra.

"Today we're going for a check-up, Garret, are you ready?" Petra asked, carrying his nephew.

Garret nodded eagerly. "Garret is very ready!"

Lyyana and Petra laughed hearing Garret's enthusiastic response. Lyyana then helped Garret change his clothes. Once done, Petra carried Garret again and held Lyyana's hand as they went down to the dining table.

They enjoyed their breakfast with happy faces and laughter, making anyone who saw them feel envious. "Hey, Amber, where are you going?" Lyyana asked when she saw Amber and Mila rushing out of the kitchen.

"Monthly shopping, Miss."

"Ugh, stop calling me Miss. Just be normal," Lyyana protested as Mila once again treated her like a mistress.

Mila and Amber lowered their heads upon hearing Lyyana's objection to their behavior. "Um, you don't need to shop," they said simultaneously. Instantly, they looked up, furrowing their brows in confusion, their faces reflecting fear and panic.

They nudged each other, too afraid to articulate their thoughts. "Because Petra and I will do the shopping, and Garret will have his check-up. So, Garret can also have a little outing," Lyyana clarified.

"Oh," Amber and Mila said in unison, looking visibly relieved, as if they had just been saved from death. "Alright then, we'll head back to the back, Mr. Lyyana." Lyyana and Petra nodded, allowing their two employees to leave.

They resumed their breakfast, and after finishing, Petra immediately took Lyyana and Garret to the hospital. Petra's car cut through the morning city streets' hustle and bustle, moving at a moderate speed while his hand held Lyyana's, who was carrying Garret beside him.

After a journey of approximately 40 minutes, Petra's car finally arrived at the hospital parking lot. He handed the car keys to the valet and hurried inside the hospital building. He quickly headed to the elevator and pressed the floor he intended to go to. Upon arriving at the designated floor, Petra stepped into Dr. Jasmine's office.

There, Petra and Lyyana were warmly welcomed by the nurse and Dr. Jasmine's assistant. "Hello, welcome."

Lyyana smiled warmly, entering the room and smiling at Jasmine. Jasmine rose from her chair, walking towards Lyyana and giving her a brief hug. "Hello, Lyyana, how are you?"

"I'm doing fine, how about you?"

"I'm also doing fine. How about you, little champ?" Jasmine greeted Garret, who was between Lyyana and Petra.

"I'm doing great, Doctor!" Garret replied enthusiastically.

Dr. Jasmine then took Garret to the examination area and conducted routine check-ups as usual. Jasmine spent quite some time examining him, as she also inquired about some issues regarding Garret's previous mental problems before Lyyana came into his life.

After a 30-minute examination, Jasmine returned to her desk with an ecstatic smile that she couldn't hide. "The results are amazing! The progress is very good. I didn't expect this to happen."

"Does Garret still need to take medication?" Petra asked, glancing at Garret playing in the mini playground.

Jasmine shook her head, "No need. His weight has increased significantly, and his physical health is very good. Taking too much medication is also not good for his kidneys in the future. So, I believe the most effective medicine is being surrounded by love and happiness," Jasmine explained as she wrote down the examination results in Garret's health report.

"I'm not prescribing any medication or vitamins now because Garret is in good hands. And I'm sure you feel that too, Petra." Petra nodded in response to Jasmine's words.

"In that case, we'll take our leave. Thank you for your assistance all this time."

Jasmine nodded, "Come back here for a follow-up examination in a month. If everything is okay, I can start considering releasing Garret."

Petra and Lyyana nodded. "May you be happy and together always," Jasmine wished Petra and Lyyana before they left her office.

Petra and Lyyana nodded, calling Garret, and quickly left Jasmine's room. Along the way, Garret kept talking about the questions Jasmine had asked earlier. "Mom, since Garret is smart now, can we buy toys?" he asked with an adorable expression.

"Sure, dear," Lyyana replied, patting Garret's head.

"Yay, thank you, Mom!" Garret exclaimed joyfully, happy to get permission from his foster mother.

They then walked together towards the hospital lobby, attracting many eyes that admired the harmony of the small family. Many praised Lyyana for looking beautiful and graceful despite wearing simple clothes and minimal makeup. They also praised Garret's cuteness as he continued to chatter to Lyyana.

Their footsteps halted when two middle-aged individuals stood in front of them, staring at them with inexplicable expressions. "Hi Petra, Hi Garret?"

"What brings you here?"

"To see my grandson, what else?" she replied casually as she walked towards Garret.

Garret immediately hid behind Lyyana's legs, the toddler showing a fearful expression and reluctance to approach the two middle-aged women. "Don't come closer," Lyyana warned the woman.

"Who's this young lady? Is she your lover? Or your grandchild's babysitter?" the woman asked, her tone condescending towards Lyyana.
