Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1126 Come Clean

"Probably steak, cheese, fruit, and cake," Annika said about dinner. "I watched her the whole time. She didn't eat anything she shouldn't have."

"Okay," Dr. Henry said, glancing at Mia. "You all can leave now."

"But..." Annika hesitated, looking at Sadie.

"Go on," Sadie gestured.

"Yes," Annika and the other attendants bowed and left.

"You too, Sadie," Dr. Henry added.

Sadie blinked, surprised. Usually, she stayed unless it was an emergency. Was Mia's condition that serious?

"Don't worry, it's minor," Dr. Henry reassured her. "I just want to talk to the kids alone."

Noah felt a chill. 'Oh no,' he thought, 'Dr. Henry knows.'

Sadie gave Noah a knowing look, then quietly left.

Dr. Henry applied soothing medicine to Mia's irritated belly button and asked Paula to prepare more. "Even though the sugar pills don't have major side effects, Mia's body hasn't fully recovered. Taking them makes her uncomfortable. You shouldn't mess with your health."

Noah, cheeks burning with shame, lowered his head.

Mia, clutching her stomach, anxiously said, "Dr. Henry, I wanted to take the pills myself. It has nothing to do with Noah."

"From now on, don't sneak anything from my medicine box," Dr. Henry warned gently but firmly.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Henry. I know I was wrong," Noah said softly. "But I didn't steal your medicine. Paula gave it to me. I had a stomachache before, and she gave it to me. I didn't take it then and kept it secretly."

Dr. Henry looked at Paula.

"That's true," Paula nodded.

"You're healthy, so Paula gave you the medicine because you couldn't digest well. But Mia is different," Dr. Henry reminded sternly. "The same thing can have different effects on a healthy person and a sick person. You must not joke about this in the future!"

"Yes, I understand," Noah said, feeling guilty. "Dr. Henry, is Mia okay now? I thought she would just have diarrhea. I didn't expect her to react so badly."

"Her condition isn't very serious, but she'll need more medicine," Dr. Henry said with a frown. "Alright, you can go now. Sadie is probably waiting for you to explain."

"Okay," Noah nodded, looking at Mia with guilt. "I'm sorry, Mia."

"It's okay, Noah. Don't worry. I'll get better soon, ugh." Mia started to retch again.

"Mia, here, drink some water first," Paula quickly helped Mia sit up to drink water.

"Go on," Dr. Henry patted Noah's head.

Noah walked out of the medical room. Sadie was sitting on the couch with a stern face, looking at him with a complex expression. "Come to the study with me," she said seriously. Noah lowered his head and followed her to the study on the first floor.

It was more like a library than a study. The high ceiling had a loft, and the wooden bookshelves were grand and elegant, with some vintage elements.

Even the vases in the corners were rare antiques. The study gave off a serene feeling, calming one's mind.

Noah was examining the study when Sadie's voice brought him back.

"Come here!" Sadie sat at the desk, frowning at Noah.

Noah walked over, head down, not daring to speak.

"Should I ask, or will you confess yourself?" she questioned sternly.

Sadie rarely treated the children so sternly. This was serious, and she was very angry.
