Pampered Wedding Marry Me, Mr. Langford

Chapter 268 A small figure was curled in the dark and narrow attic. Keith‘s body was alarmingly hot, and the fever showed no
signs of dissipating even after he took the antipyretics. His exposed skin was littered with eerie–looking red rashes, which
presented both a shocking and disgusting appearance.
He kept drifting in and out of consciousness as he mumbled weakly, “Mommy...”
Keith never thought that things would become like this. Why? Why would his mommy turn out this way after so long of
separation? Was he... not her real son?
Why did she not hesitate to strike him when the moment called for it? Why did she ignore him when he was down with a fever?
Keith could never understand the reasons. At that moment, he heard the sound of the attic door being opened. “Young Master is
inside... Are you really experienced in taking care of children?”
“Yes. I have a five–year–old daughter who was always sick when she was still a newborn, so I know how to take care of
children.”
Tina approached the child on the floor as she spoke. One glance at the boy shocked her to the
core.
“Why are you the one...?” She never expected the young master of the Langford family to actually be the boy she had
met.
Keith was also stunned to see Tina. Even though she had disguised herself and deliberately lowered her voice, he could still
recognize her pretty easily.
“It‘s... you...” His voice had become hoarser than ever. Right now, Keith looked startlingly different from his usual cold and
sharp–tongued self. His forehead was swollen, there was a scab forming on it, as if someone had bashed his head in. There
were patches of red rashes covering his body as well.
Tina propped him up while exclaiming in horror, “Oh my goodness! His condition‘s already this serious! Why didn‘t anyone send
him to the hospital? Do you want him to die here?!”
She could barely believe her eyes. The condition of the child in her arms was already critical, and yet Cindy was more worried
about what beautiful outfit to wear in order to please her soon to return husband!

“Well, we...” the servant stammered, looking torn. “We‘ll lose our jobs if we defy Mrs. Langford‘s orders.”

“So, you‘re willing to let a child suffer for so long in exchange for your jobs?” Tina was furious
She quickly scooped the child into her arins and continued, “If you don‘t want to send him to the hospital, then I‘ll do it!”
“No! We‘ll be punished if you do that!” All the servants tried to stop her.

“You b*stards!” Tina knew she could no longer waste time arguing with those people. She took a deep breath before saying,
“This is the attic, which means it‘s filthy! Also, the young master is injured and weakened, hence the breakout of his allergies. I
need to bring him to a clean room right now.” “But...” “Besides, Mr. Langford is coming back soon, isn‘t he? If Young Master
Langford died right here, all of you, who were supposed to be taking care of him, would never be able to explain yourselves to
him!” Tina‘s words made the servants‘ resolve waver. She took Keith back to his own room and gave him a quick sponge bath
before helping him into clean clothes made of soft cotton. Not daring to feed him any more antipyretics, she could only lower his
body temperature through physical means. She laid a makeshift bag consisting of a towel and placed a bag of ice cubes on his
forehead, making sure to change the towels and replace the ice cubes every now and then. It was only at midnight that Keith‘s
body temperature started going down. Tina couldn‘t help but let out a sigh of relief. The boy was finally recovering. However, she
couldn‘t bring herself to rest. If Cindy couldn‘t see the designs that she came up with the next morning, she‘d definitely be
chased out of the mansion. Hence, Tina had no choice but to drag her exhausted body back to her room and started working on
the designs. Morning soon came. Tina didn‘t need any disguises to make herself look ugly, since the heavy bags and dark rings
under her eyes were more than enough to frighten everyone. Just as she was about to show Cindy the clothes that she had
made, she heard a servant‘s voice from outside. “Mr. Langford, you‘re back!”
