Dolores lowered her head and glared at him.
At the same time, she smiled slightly.
When they left the inner room, the group of people who had gone to see the children returned.
âCongratulations, congratulations on the birth of your baby,â Boyce Shawn and Armand Bernie spoke in unison, who looked at each other as they finished speaking and then looked away in disgust.
Armand had almost recovered from the wound and had removed the bandage from his head, but he no longer had his attractive hairstyle.
However, that didnât affect his handsome appearance.
Jasmine Burke and Theresa Gordon walked over to Dolores. Theresa took it from Matthew, âWeâll help you.â
Matthew said, âYou guys be careful.â
âTsk-tsk.â She thought, âShowing off, but he managed to do it. How can he not be happy when he has a son?
It was right to ask him to be careful.
Dolores looked at Jasmine and Theresa, it seemed to her that Theresa did not look good while Jasmine looked white and seemed to have put on weight compared to before.
She took Theresaâs hands and sat down on the couch. Since she had a stomach wound, she leaned further back.
âAre you worried?â asked Dolores.
Theresa looked down, âNothing.â
Actually, she had been living a depressing and unhappy life these past few days.
After Armand recovered, Elizabeth started asking them to go to the hospital and she had also been tested.
The results were that all of her eggs were of poor quality and she had to take injections and medication to condition them. She had to be injected six times a day and now had a dozen needle holes in her waist and hands after only three days.
Afterwards it could be even more painful and she was doing her best to get through it physically and mentally.
âWhy, did you have a fight with Armand?â Jasmine gave her a look.
Before Theresa could say anything, Armand interjected, âAre you cursing us? You and Boyce are the ones who argued.â
She rebutted him, âItâs good that you didnât. Why are you blowing up, did I step on your toes?â
âYou donât learn anything good while staying with Boyce, but your ability to criticize others has increased a lot.â
âI think youâre the one who always bullies him when youâre together, arenât you?â
âYou bratâ¦â
âWhat did you call her?â Boyce was close to Armand and stabbed him with his elbow. Although there were wounds on his body that hadnât fully healed, he didnât feel much pain. He deliberately pretended to be in pain, âBoyce, do you want me to go to the hospital again?â
Boyce looked at him, âNo need to bluff, arenât you recovered?â âWho said Iâm recovered? I donât care, you have to make it up to me.â
âHow?â Boyce merely watched him pretend.
Without hesitation, he said, âGive me a big red envelope!â
âImpossible!â Boyce put his arm around her and whispered in her ear, âIâll give it to you when you have a child.â
He even made a gesture with his hands, showing that the envelope would be as big as a sack.
Armand was speechless.
This displeased him.
Because of the child, Elizabeth had jumped the gun and made Theresa suffer.
She was in a dilemma.
Dolores said, âIâm tired, help me into the room, Theresa.â
âYes,â Theresa said.
She could tell something was wrong with Theresa.
Theresa helped her into the room.
Dolores explained, âClose the door.â
She closed it and helped her sit on the bed. Dolores asked her to sit down too, âI know you have something on your mind, canât you talk to me too?â.
She sighed, âNo, itâs unspeakableâ¦â. Dolores frowned.
âI am conditioning my body as I have been tested that the quality of my eggs is not good and I have to take medication and injections for a month before the check-up. Iâm stressed and Iâm about to give up before I even startâ¦â
She turned her head to give a glance at the window, as she was also feeling ambivalent and confused.
Since she had remarried Armand, she was always worried and uneasy.
Dolores grabbed her hands and didnât know how to comfort her.
âIs it to find someone?â she was definitely unable to give birth if she didnât have a uterus.
Theresa nodded, âIâve found someone.â
Dolores felt incredulous, âSo fast?â
Theresa nodded helplessly, âMrs. Bernie is rushing us.â She looked up at Dolores, âYou know, she pulled a recipe from somewhere and said itâs useful for nourishing the body. Now she cooks it every day for me. I can hardly accept it, but what makes me hardly accept it are the ingredientsâ¦â
Seeing her pale look, he held out his hands to her. However, he didnât say the words on the tip of his tongue.
Elizabeth wasnât bad, but she was another story when it came to some old-fashioned ideas and their benefits.
If she convinced Theresa to give up, how was she going to be able to make a place for herself in the Bernie Family?
Her eyes were moist, âI shouldnât have helped Armand and let you reconcile with him. Heâs not bad, he had matured a lot after the incident last time, but he canât disobey his grandmother when he confronts her, who had raised him. I can understand that, but itâs too unfair to you. Itâs inconsiderate of meâ¦â
âIt has nothing to do with you, donât blame yourself.â She knew it was because she had a soft heart. If she herself became stone-hearted, no one could prepare him.
Dolores touched her yellowed cheeks and felt bad, âAnd then?â
Theresa said, âI hope it goes well.â
She nodded, maybe she would get through the difficulties if she made it through.
âTell me if you need anything.â He wanted to do something for her, but found himself unable to do anything.
âYouâre hurt this time too, so donât worry about me and get well.â Theresa pretended to be relaxed.
Dolores was still uncomfortable with her and asked, âWhat kind of person have you encountered?â
She was afraid that something might go wrong because of the baby in the future, so she had to be careful in choosing the candidate.
