Chapter 574
As Irene got out of bed, Isaac left the room first to check on Tommy.
Everyone else apart from Irene and Isaac already had their breakfast, so they went to the dining table together.
'I will have to drop by the office later," Isaac said.
Irene nodded-there definitely would be work waiting to be done since he just returned.
■Um..."
She wanted to ask Isaac about the photo in his notebook.
"What is it?"
As Isaac stared at her for a moment, Irene shook her head. "No, it's nothing. ■
She should be trusting in lsaac-he would eventually tell her if there was anything she needed to know.
"Stay home and get some proper rest," he told her before he left for work.
It just so happened that Irene was feeling spirited for the day.
Tommy was sitting on the floor and playing with his little dog, and she walked up to pat his little head. "Are you

Tommy looked up and beamed at her, and she scooped him up in his arms and gave him a peck on the cheek.
Sheryl soon walked up to her and took Tommy off her arms. ’Scoot. Back to your room."
After all, Irene was not sticking to her postpartum recovery routine at all, and it was as if she could not help being
busy every day.
Irene understood that Sheryl was concerned, and hence returned to her room obediently.
Unable to fall asleep, she picked up a book.
Bang, bang, bang!
However, she had barely flipped through a few pages when someone rapped on her door.
Irene opened the door to find Sheryl standing there with Tommy in her arms. "Look! There's this red rash all over
Tommy's body. I think it's some sort of allergy..."
Irene quickly checked, and saw that the rash was growing all over
Tommy's hands and chest... but while it resembled an allergic reaction, it somehow was not.
"Get the car ready. I'm taking him to the hospital."
’Mrs. Watson and I will go. You stay home," Sheryl said-lrene was going to hurt her body, running around constantly
less than a month after giving birth.
’No, I'm worried." Irene shook her head. "I'll just dress in layers—I'll be fine." Seeing that Irene was determined,
Sheryl had no choice but to let her go. After they rushed Tommy to the hospital, a dermatologist examined the
toddler and said, "This is a viral infection, commonly found in animals with long fur. Would you happen to be rearing
a pet?"
Irene nodded. "A dog."
"Has he been in close contact with it?"
’Yes."
'Does the dog have a proof of health and vaccination?"
'I think so!" Irene said-she had instructed the chauffeur to make sure that the dog is healthy.
If anything, this should not have happened at all.
’You should get the dog checked at a vet for diseases. Animals tend to be a vector of diseases, so you have to be
watchful."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm’Understood," Irene replied.
’I'll write a prescription for your kid—it's an ointment for the skin. Also, keep him away from the dog.
Irene nodded.
Once they got home, Irene had Sheryl take Tommy to his room and apply the ointment, while she called for Mrs. Watson,
asking, ’The chauffeur bought the dog, didn't he?"
Mrs. Watson nodded hesitantly. "Yes, ma'am."
’Tell him to come," Irene said, glowering.
"Is there a problem, ma'am?" Mrs. Watson asked gingerly.
"I said to get a healthy dog, but is it really?"
She was certainly skeptical.
Mrs. Watson's face fell right then.
’Get the chauffeur," Irene urged again.
Rubbing her hands, Mrs. Watson finally told her, "Actually, Debbie bought the dog."
Irene sprang to her feet. "What?!"
