All Chapters of Mom, We Got You a Husband!: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“The patient is out of immediate danger,” the surgeon said. Cassidy covered her mouth. “Thank you, Doctor.” “He has serious injuries, and we'll need to monitor him closely. The next forty-eight hours are important. If he wakes and continues to recover without complications, that will be a good sign.” Cassidy nodded repeatedly. “Thank you. Thank you so much.” Dylan was transferred to a private hospital room. Ben and David stayed until the medical staff finished settling him in. Then Carol turned to them. “You've both been here for hours. Go home and rest. I'll stay with Cassidy.” Ben glanced toward Dylan's room. “We'll be back this evening.” Carol nodded. “Thank you for everything you've done.” After they left, she noticed Noel and Nardy sitting quietly in a corner of the waiting area. The boys had barely spoken since arriving at the hospital. Carol walked toward them. “Come here, boys.” They stood and approached her hand in hand. “Hello, Grandma,” Noel said. Carol b

At nine that morning, Cassidy gathered her design folders and looked at the boys. “You can play in the living room. Mommy has work to finish upstairs, so please don't interrupt unless it's important.” “Okay, Mommy,” Noel said. Nardy nodded. Both boys kissed her cheek. Dylan rose from the couch and leaned toward her too. Cassidy put a hand against his chest. “Not you.” He looked disappointed. She ignored him and went upstairs. Rodel had given her the largest room in the house to use as a studio. It was filled with sketches, paintings, and clothing designs. A small crown appeared on many of the drawings, the mark she used for her work as Queen. Cassidy set her folders on the desk. She had been invited to judge an upcoming fashion design show, but the event's sponsor had withdrawn its funding. For now, her priority was Helton Group's Warm Autumn Sun show. The design team had already begun preparing the collection. Cassidy still needed to review the final drawings and make sur

Cassidy stared at Helen for a moment. Then she quickly saved her work and gathered her things. “I'll go see her. I might not be back today, so please let Mr. Helton know.” “Of course, Miss Cassidy.” Helen watched her hurry away, wondering who the visitor could be. --- Cassidy reached the reception area and immediately spotted a familiar yellow duck bag. “Anna!” The young woman turned. “Cassidy!” They hurried toward each other and hugged. Cassidy stepped back, smiling in surprise. “What are you doing here?” “I came to keep a promise.” Anna winked. “And you once told me you'd take me out to dinner if I ever visited. Does that offer still stand?” Cassidy laughed. “Of course it does.” “Good. I'm starving.” --- They went to a nearby Chinese restaurant and ordered several dishes. Anna took one bite and sighed happily. “I missed this food.” Cassidy smiled. “How long are you staying?” “Until the fashion show ends.” Cassidy paused. “The fashion show?” She had met Ann

Dylan raised his uninjured hand. “I'm innocent, boys. I didn't send Anna a message yesterday.” Noel looked at the phone. “Then why did Aunt Yellow give us lollipops?” Dylan frowned. “Aunt Yellow?” “She wears yellow from head to toe,” Noel said. “What else should we call her?” Nardy nodded as though the answer were obvious. Noel took the phone from Dylan and accepted Anna's friend request. “Noel, wait—” “Mommy thinks Aunt Yellow is a good person,” Noel said seriously. “We should find out for ourselves.” He typed a short message. Hello. Then he handed the phone back. Anna replied almost immediately. Hello, Mr. Edwards. We need to discuss the program. Could you share your phone number? Dylan stared at the screen. “What program?” He couldn't remember making plans with Anna. He typed a reply. Where did you get my contact details? Anna answered with a smiling emoji. Mrs. Edwards gave them to me. Is that a problem? Nardy leaned closer. “She sounds very sweet.” “Maybe

Cassidy's phone buzzed as the sun began to set. She glanced at the message from the security agent. Larissa has chosen to work with Edwards Group. Cassidy set down her phone. She'd known this was possible from the moment Anna entered Larissa's office. Edwards Group had an established reputation, and Larissa had every right to choose the offer that suited her. Still, losing her meant losing access to a team of experienced runway models. With the show so close, finding a replacement wouldn't be easy. Cassidy turned her chair toward the window. Orange and pink light spread across the evening sky. She watched it for a moment, thinking about the collection and the story she wanted it to tell. Then an idea came to her. They didn't have to replace Larissa with another famous model. They could give the audience someone new to remember. And who said every model on the runway had to be an adult? Cassidy turned back to her desk and began making notes. --- That evening, she found R
