After placating Wade, I explained the "dragon prince" thing to George.

He was stunned, then blurted, "They're not just uneducated, they're downright stupid!"

Hearing George's unfiltered assessment made me chuckle.

To prevent a repeat of the past, I kept impressing upon him, "You can't leave the baby alone, not even for a second. You have to stay with him at all times."

Seeing my anxiety, he squeezed my hand.

"I know, I know. Don't worry, I swear I won't take my eyes off him until you wake up."
