Chapter 279
There were a lot of people in the vaccination hall. Most of them took their children to get vaccinated so it was very
noisy. Children were afraid of getting injections, so they cried when they saw the needle. The voices were loud and
ear-piercing that the adults coaxed them patiently by their sides.
Rowan was a little sleepy, and the surroundings were too noisy. He almost started crying. Yuliana could only carry
him in her arms and talk to him, trying to distract him and get his attention.
Rowan, who was almost five months old, had grown a lot. He was no longer like a newborn, pinkish-fluffy doll. His
complexion was very fair; his eyes were big, and his pupils were dark and bright. They looked so bright and clear as
though they were just washed with water.
At the same time, he also resembled Christopher even more now.
She saw a photo of Christopher when he was a child in the Solace residence. The similarity between the father and
son was as high as 70%.
However, Rowan’s face was more like hers, His hair was not as brown as Christopher’s when the latter was a child.
Rowan’s hair was black, and his hair was very straight. Both Kylie and Hailey commented that his hair looked like
hers.
Meanwhile, Rowan bit his fist and gazed at Yuliana with tears in his eyes. It looked like he was about to cry.
Yuliana felt her heart melt. She gently took his tiny fist out of his mouth and said, “Mommy told you that you can’t
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteat your hands. It’s unhygienic.”
However, her words did not work at all. As soon as she pulled his fist away from his mouth, he immediately put it
back again.
Yuliana pulled it away once again. Rowan was irritated. The tears in his eyes rolled down instantly and started
crying. The skin on his face also turned red
immediately because of crying.
Before giving birth to Rowan, she had thought about being a slightly stricter mother. At least, she had to be
principled. But at that moment, seeing Rowan crying, all the principles were left behind.
She took out a disinfectant wipe and cleaned Rowan’s hands. Then, she let him do as he pleased.
After queuing up for nearly half an hour, the vaccination was done at last.
Yuliana handed the baby to the maternity matron and said, “Kylie, you wait here with Rowan. I’ll go to the
restroom.”
“Okay.” Kylie sat down with Rowan in her arms on the chair in the hall and said kindly to him, “Come on, Roe, let me
hug you.”
Rowan was fine with strangers. He usually did not cry when anyone hugged him, but when he was sleeping at night,
he only wanted Yuliana and Kylie. Others could not coax him successfully. Even Christopher could only play with
Rowan. until he was tired and fell asleep naturally. It was impossible to force him to sleep.
Yuliana stroke Rowan’s hair, took a tissue from her bag in the stroller, and walked to the restroom.
There were a lot of people in the restroom, so everyone needed to queue up. There were three or four people in
front of Yuliana. After waiting for a few minutes, it was finally her turn. Yuliana came out of the restroom and
washed her hands by the sink. Suddenly, she heard Kylie calling her hurriedly.
“Yuliana!”
Hearing the sound, Yuliana looked up subconsciously and saw Kylie running over with an anxious look.
Yuliana’s face darkened and she immediately had a bad feeling.
Without drying her hands, she grabbed Kylie’s arms and asked, “Where’s Roe?” Kylie looked guilt-ridden and
helpless. She looked at Yuliana’s face, hesitated for two seconds, and stumbled, “J-Just now, a girl in a nurse’s
uniform asked me to take something from the vaccination window. She said we forgot to take it just now. I went
there and left Roe in the stroller. While I was collecting the things, my hands were on the stroller all the time.
However, in the blink of an eye, Roe is nowhere to be seen in the stroller.”
Kylie was anxious and scared.
She was worried that something bad might happen to Rowan, who was a baby less than half a year old. Also, she
was afraid that he would be abducted and suffer. When she came to find Yuliana just now, she made various
speculations in her heart.
At the same time, she was afraid that she could not handle the consequences. After all, she lost the child.
Yuliana’s face darkened. She looked at Kylie coldly. She even regretted for a brief moment that she handed Rowan
over to Kylie just now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe could just hold back and not go to the restroom.
Yuliana tried her best to suppress the waves of emotions that stirred up in her heart. Without saying a word to Kylie,
she hurried to the vaccination hall. Kylie had to jog a little to keep up with her pace.
In the vaccination hall, there were still many people inside, just like when she was waiting with Rowan earlier.
Nonetheless, she was in a completely different mood.
A woman with a child in her arms passed by in front of her. Without thinking about it, Yuliana immediately grabbed
the woman and stared at the child in her
arms.
The woman was probably frightened. She reflexively protected her child in her arms, looked at Yuliana defensively,
and asked loudly, “What are you doing?”
Yuliana came back to her senses and was stunned for a moment. She apologized awkwardly, “I’m sorry.”
The woman looked at her as though the latter was a psycho, and then, she immediately walked away with her child
in her arms.
Yuliana took in a deep breath. Her mind was still a mess. She could not calm down and think about it at all. She kept
taking deep breaths to calm herself down and suppress her fear. Half a minute later, she picked up her phone and
called Christopher while walking to the reception desk in the hall.
“Hello, my son is missing. Can you show me the footage of the surveillance cameras?”
