Chapter 780
Chapter 780:.
Theresa said, “We found the person through an agency and have seen the photo. She looked decent and had a great background….”.
The introducer said this woman had a teaching degree. It was really hard to imagine that she could do something like that.
That was probably how the money made the mare go.
“Is she reliable?” asked Dolores again.
Theresa replied. “She shouldn’t fail. The negotiated price is three hundred thousand dollars and now only twenty thousand dollars has been paid. Only later, when the thing goes well, will the rest be paid. Besides, she doesn’t know any information about me and Armand, so she should be able to avoid a lot of trouble in the future.”
They had found a professional agency and would identify her after the child was born and make sure it was her child before paying the balance.
There was no fear that the child would be exchanged or substituted for another.
Dolores nodded, “Anyway, they have to be cautious.”
“Um…”
Knock, knock…
At that moment, there was a knock at the door. Theresa stopped talking as Dolores said, “Come in.” Oscar Adams pushed on the door, but did not enter and stood.
When he saw that Theresa was in the room, he smiled and said, “What are you whispering in the room?”
Dolores smiled and said, “We’re just chatting, has Uncle seen the baby yet?”.
He said, “Yes, the baby looks just like you.”
The baby was still small and no one could tell who it looked like. She said with a smile, “Uncle is good at making me happy.”
“Lola, I’m ready to go back to C-Town…”
“Such a hurry?” she wanted to hold him for a few days, after all, he had come here.
“I want to play here for a few more days too, but someone named Forbis called me to come back.” He smiled, “He also wanted to follow me when I came, but only one of us could leave since we’ve been busy lately, so we played rock-paper-scissors to make a decision. I won, so I came first and it would be his turn when I got back.”
Theresa couldn’t help but laugh, “How old are they, are they so childish as to keep playing this game?”
“You don’t know, this is what men do for fun. You wouldn’t understand.”
Theresa said again, “It’s for immature men. Mature men don’t play these kinds of games.”
“Theresa, I notice you’ve lost weight.” Suddenly the subject changed and his eyes fixed on her, then looked at Dolores. Although Dolores had undergone major surgery, she had recovered well and her face looked rosy while Theresa looked sick.
She laughed, “I’m always thin…”.
“Armand didn’t take good care of you, did he?” she continued, “In my eyes, you’re just like Lola. If you get harassed, be sure to tell me and I’ll stick up for you, understand?”.
“Yes,” she readily agreed, as she knew he really cared about her.
Oscar rarely came here, so Dolores and Matthew had to entertain him. Since the hospital conditions were limited, they went out to dinner.
Dolores did not go, as she stayed at the hospital and was cared for by Jessica.
They went as a group.
After dinner, they went home separately and Matthew arranged a hotel for Oscar.
When Armand and Theresa returned home, Elizabeth was sitting in the living room watching TV while Dora washed fruit and peeled it separately. When she saw them enter, she immediately stood up, “The brothers are back.”
Dora had no idea what to call them the last few days, so Elizabeth suggested, “You call me Grandma, call them brother and sister.”
So she called them that.
Elizabeth preferred it and they made no objection, as there was nothing wrong with the address since she was young.
Theresa gave her an answer.
“Has Sister eaten yet, would you like me to fix you something to eat?” she smiled and asked kindly.
Theresa said, “No need, we’ve already eaten out.”
Elizabeth motioned to her, “Come and sit down.”
Theresa walked over and Armand stood in front of her and asked, “What happened, Grandma?”.
“Nothing, can’t you watch TV with me for a while?” she felt uncomfortable as she thought Armand only cared about Theresa since they had reconciled this time and had neglected her.
Obviously, his tone was nasty. Theresa felt tired but still had to fake it with a smile, “Are you unhappy? Is it because you feel we’ve spent less time with you?”
Elizabeth held her hands, “You are the most understanding and know my mind well.”
He lowered his head and said nothing.
“Dora, serve the soup to your sister,” he ordered.
Dora got up and went to the kitchen to get the soup while Theresa trembled slightly as she listened to her.noveldrama
She raised her eyes, “May I not have some?”
“No,” she sounded especially determined.
Dora approached with a bowl of soup.
“Take it to the room,” Armand said.
He knew Theresa would refuse it. So he asked Dora to take it to the room so he could serve it to her if she didn’t want to drink.
Elizabeth felt wretched and glared at him, “What do you mean?”
“I don’t mean anything, she just ate, I’m afraid she won’t be able to drink it. She’ll drink it later, when she’s digested.”
“He has to drink it while it’s hot, otherwise it would get cold.” Elizabeth didn’t listen to Armand and told Dora to pour the soup for her.
Theresa couldn’t refuse to drink it.
Before she drank it, she already felt like throwing up.
When she started to drink it, she only felt a strong fishy smell. Until once she saw Elizabeth bringing a bag with something extremely fishy inside and asked Dora to clean it, she asked her what it was.
She then told her that it was a medicinal herb that was used as a tonic.
However, when she took a picture of it and looked it up on the internet, it turned out to be….
