Chapter 887 The Nagging Mother and Daughter

The doctor had come to check on Sean and took another X-ray of him to carefully inspect his condition.

Carla was relieved when the doctor told her that Sean was doing ok and there was no need to worry. But being the protective sister she was, Carla couldn't stop worrying.

It had only been six months since he had joined the army and he was already in a mess. The possibilities of him getting hurt were painful for Carla to imagine.

"Carla, it's not a big deal. Everyone in our class gets injured. It's normal," Sean said, looking at Carla's worried face.

Injuries were inevitable during training and Sean didn't know what to do to make his sister feel better.

Carla let out a loud sigh and finally said, "Sean, I know that it's pointless to tell anything now. I just want you to be safe. Please take care of yourself."

Sean was the only son of the Ji family and Carla's dearest brother. She couldn't even begin to imagine what she would do if something happened to him. She would never be able to forgive herself.

"Okay! I promise I'll be more careful from now on."

Sean smiled.

His sister's concern was only making him weak.

Sean felt that he would be able to take responsibility only if he became stronger, both physically and mentally.

Sally, who was standing next to Carla, shifted her glances from her mother to her uncle. Once Sean was free, she walked over to him.

"What's wrong, Sally? What do you want to tell me?"

Sean asked, lifting her in his arms.

Sally wrapped her arms around his neck and pouted. "Uncle is a naughty boy! You promised me that you wouldn't get hurt. Look at you now. You have broken your promise."

Sean shook his head and laughed at her words. He pinched her cheeks and said, "Fine. I lost the game. What do you want me to do?"

"I'm going to punish Uncle Sean!"

Sally said thoughtfully.

"All right, how are you going to punish me?" Sean groaned in defeat. He realized that Sally and Carla were his invincible opponents. He had no choice but to accept his destiny.

Carla had

lm down when he realized that he was tricked by a four-year-old. "Sally, if I don't get a girlfriend before thirty, you shouldn't mention about marrying me again. Do you understand?"

"Okay, fine. I agree." Sally cast a sly smile.

Sean had only taken a day off and had to return to his troop.

Sally watched Sean leave with teary eyes. Her cries grew louder with every step Sean took forward.

Sean was perturbed by Sally's loud cry.

He stopped for a second, mustered the strength and hurried out of the hospital.

"Don't cry, honey!" Carla wiped away the tears that were streaming down Sally's cheeks. She couldn't stand the sight of her wailing daughter. It made her cry too.

"Mommy, I don't want my uncle to leave."

Sally continued to cry.

Carla was heavy and couldn't squat down next to her daughter. So she took Sally's hand and sat on the sofa.

"Sweetie, he'll be back when he gets a chance," Carla gushed, trying to comfort her daughter. "I want you to study hard, eat well and grow up. When uncle comes next time, you will be a smart, tall kid and he will be proud of you."

Sally wiped her tears with the back of her hand and took a deep breath. "Yes, I need to grow up quickly. Only then will uncle keep his promise when he returns."

Carla sighed and patted her daughter's trembling shoulders.

Shortly after, Terence walked in.
