There was silence for a moment before Dax continued what was on his mind.
"Dad, I heard from Uncle Sam that my mommy was exhausted from work. That's why she didn't go to her last meeting yesterday. Is that true?" His round eyes blink several times as he looks at Tristan.
Tristan was stunned to hear that Dax knew about his mother's condition.
"Your mother is indeed tired, but don't worry, she's fine now. She just needs enough good sleep."
Tristan couldn't tell Dax that Bella was sick yesterday and had to visit the hospital. He didn't want Dax to worry too much.
However, worry still flashed through Dax's gaze before he said, "Dad, my mom never worked when we were in Sweden. She spent all her time at home with me. But, when she got here, she went to her office almost every day and came home before evening..."
Another long and deep sigh echoed in the room.
