take to the hospital
The next morning, Lizetta woke up early and prepared two hearty breakfasts to t
She first visited Joseph, unveiling a whimsical breakfast for him
It included combread ducklings, bread bunnies tucked under a blanket of tomato and scrambled egg flowers, quail eggs and grape. tomatoes turned into little mushrooms, and watermelon cakes.
“Wow! This is so yummy! Liz, you’re so talented. No offense, but my brother really doesn’t deserve you! As a man, he’s got nothing but money and looks. Seriously, I love you the most. Liz”
Joseph devoured his meal, not missing the chance to express his daily disdain for his brother..
After all, his brother always ended up making Liz sad
Lizetta wiped Joseph’s mouth with a napkin, shaking her head with a smile
For a man, having money and looks seemed enough to make him attractive to women.
She couldn’t tell if the kid was criticizing or complimenting his brother.
She stood up, “You enjoy your meal. I won’t stay with you any longer.”
Joseph pouted. “Choosing love over your little brother, huh? Go on, then.”
Lizetta ruffled his hair and walked out
As she stepped outside, she unexpectedly bumped into Hanna
Lizetta paused, merely nodding at Hanna.
She had previously promised Hanna that she would cleanly divorce and leave, but now she was going against her word, which surely filled Hanna with thoughts and dissatisfaction.
Lizetta didn’t want to invite trouble.
She was about to pass by Hanna when Hanna spoke up unhappily.
“What? Carrying the Dashiell family’s golden grandchild has made you too noble to even speak to your mother–in–law?”
Lizetta stopped, not because she didn’t want to speak, but because she was unsure how to address Hanna.
Calling her “Mom” felt wrong, and “Mrs. H
Hanna” sounded odd.
But considering she hadn’t divorced yet and was hoping for a fresh start, Lizetta turned to Hanna and said, “I thought you might not want me to call you ‘Mom‘ anymore”
Lizetta expected Hanna to mock her, but surprisingly, Hanna just frowned and then said, “Since you’re carrying Remington’s child and have decided to make a go of it, I am still your mother–in–law. You can call me ‘Mom, and I’ll respond”
Lizetta pursed her lips, not wanting to make things too awkward, and said, “Mom.”
Hanna nodded, “With the child on the way, just focus on taking care of the baby. Just nurture yourself and bring the baby into the world. safely, that’s the most important thing for Joseph! Don’t worry about anything else, what if you harm the baby?”
Hearing this, Lizette felt uncomfortable.
She frowned slightly. “Joy is mine and Remi’s child. Of course, I take good care of him, but I’ll also continue doing what I want to do! I know what I should and shouldn’t do, so you don’t need to worry about me.”
Lizetta nodded and walked away
Hanna watched her leave with a displeased look, muttering, “She’s becoming too sharp tongued!”
Wilma tried to console her, “Ma’am, the baby’s cord blood could definitely save Joseph. It must be fate that she’s pregnant now. Just take it easy
Hanna finally calmed down and instructed, “Make sure to ask the doctor what she should eat to ensure the health of the umbilical cord and placenta. We can’t afford to have too little cord blood.”
Her words treated Lizetta’s unborn child more like a medical resource than a family member.
Wilma nodded quickly, “Yes, ma’am.
Lizetta, carrying the lunchbox, arrived at Remington’s hospital room and pushed the door open.
She saw Remington standing by the bed, already dressed in a three plece suit, tying his tie, looking ready to leave the hospital.
“Remi, what’s going on?” she asked as Remington walked over to take the lunchbox from her hands and set it aside.
