My Sweet Wife

Larissa woke up the next morning and went downstairs for breakfast with Nathanael Lora.

Old Lora and Nathanael’s father were both sitting at the table waiting for them, Old Lora lifted her cup and took a sip of milk before looking at Nathanael Lora and saying, “Your mom told me everything.”

Nathanael Lora was puzzled and wanted to ask before she heard Old Lora speak again, “Don’t worry, I will still respect your decision. So don’t you worry, even if there is something, Grandpa will help you. You want to marry Larissa, when and if, just let me know.”

“Uh, okay.” Nathanael Lora smiled and looked to Old Lora in response.

Nathanael’s father urges Nathanael Lora, “Nathanael, hurry up and eat, we’ll get to the office early.”

He was worried about work, Nathanael’s father was at this age, he still had his mind on earning money, basically he had very little time to rest, and this rest of the time was also used to accompany Nathanael’s mother, so the two of them were particularly good husband and wife.

“Look at you, no matter how anxious you are to go to the company, this meal still has to be eaten slowly, this eating fast will affect the digestive function, which is not good for the body.” Lucy glared at Nathanael’s father.

This meal was also eaten in harmony.

After finishing the meal, Nathanael’s mother watched Nathanael Lora and Nathanael’s father go out the door before she withdrew her sight to look at Old Lora, “Old Master, do you have any plans today?”

“Never mind me an old man, you’d better hurry up and check on the boy. That child has been crying all night, this morning he shouldn’t have woken up yet, when he wakes up I don’t know if he’ll still be crying. The child is still so young, don’t cry your eyes out.”

Nathanael’s mother watches Old Lora get up and rushes over to help him, “Well, don’t you worry. You didn’t sleep well last night because the child was crying all the time, so you’d better hurry back and rest again.”

“Uh-huh.” Old Lora also had a tired look on her face.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The child had been crying last night, but Larissa lived upstairs and the soundproofing was better, so she didn’t hear it.

The child’s voice was muffled from crying, and his whole appearance was not very energetic, Nathanael’s mother was heartbroken from holding the child, and looked at Larissa and said, “Larissa, you accompany me to go to the hospital together.”

After Nathanael’s mother said this, she was busy wrapping her child up tightly and carrying her bag.

Larissa’s first reaction was that she didn’t want to go, but seeing that Nathanael’s mother was a bit anxious, it wasn’t easy for her to refuse, so she had to follow.

“You hold the baby.” Nathanael’s mother handed the baby into Larissa’s arms.

She subconsciously reached out to pick it up, worried that the child would fall on the ground. Larissa looked at the six or seven month old child held in her arms, a cute looking child who now looked like a sick kitten.

They say children are innocent, but she realized she couldn’t be that broad-minded, looking at this child made her uncomfortable as she thought of Ewenny.

Nathanael’s mother watched as the child came into Larissa’s arms and just lay obediently and quietly, not even moving, and Nathanael’s mother spoke up, “Tell me, if you had taken this child last night, wouldn’t this child have cried like this?”

“Even though this child wasn’t born to you, it’s rare for this child to be so close to you that no one else would hug him but you.”

Larissa gently stroked the child’s back and didn’t say anything. There are so many people in this house no one will hold the child, but to put the fault of this child crying on her for not holding the child.

Looking at Nathanael’s mother’s face, those who didn’t know would have thought that she was the child’s grandmother, and that the child was her own grandchild.

She can understand that the elderly like children, but can not understand Nathanael’s mother like this child so much, yesterday Nathanael Lora also told them all, this child is not his, do not know why Nathanael’s mother from not wanting to take care of this child instantly changed again.

Nathanael’s mother looked at Larissa and suddenly softened her attitude a bit, “Larissa, after all, you are going to get married to Nathanael, you heard what the old man said today, he will respect Nathanael’s opinion. There are no impediments between you getting married, as long as you’re in our family’s door, then you’re one of us, The Lora family.”

“I also hope that you will love Nathanael more and be more tolerant of him.”

Nathanael’s mother had wanted to make it clearer, but she didn’t feel comfortable saying it outright when her son was worried about Larissa knowing the baby was his.

Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the hospital.

In the pediatric department of the hospital, Nathanael’s mother was holding her child for a checkup and looked to the maid beside her, “Irene, you go and pay the fee.”

“It’s better if I go.” Larissa was fine standing around, she wanted to pay the fee too and then thought of an excuse so she could pull away from watching the baby.

Nathanael’s mother wanted to say something to Larissa, but looked at the child in her arms and cried again.

She quickly soothed the boy, “Good boy, don’t cry, it doesn’t hurt, it doesn’t hurt …”

Larissa went out of the hospital room and went to the payment office to pay the bill.

She looked at the child’s name on the payment slip, Beau Lora, and thinking about it, she realized that it was Nathanael’s mother who had called the child that name without knowing what the child’s name was.

But it also made a point that Nathanael’s mother still thought the child was of The Lora family, otherwise it shouldn’t have been called Beau Lora any more.

It’s also not clear why Ewenny sent the child over for Nathanael Lora to help take care of, and Nathanael Lora agreed.

Could this child really be Nathanael Lora’s child?

Thinking of this, Larissa collected her thoughts and didn’t dare to think any further, after all, Nathanael Lora loved Ewenny so much that once he was drunkenly hugging her and shouting Ewenny’s name.

At that moment a voice came from the distance, “Larissa, Larissa!”

Called back to her senses by the voice, Larissa turned her face to look over, it was Cleo, she answered, “Uh-huh.”

“I saw your back in the distance, I didn’t dare to be sure, but it’s really you. What brings you to the hospital? Is somewhere uncomfortable?” Cleo’s eyes were full of concern, her gaze was sizing her up, not seeing any sickly look on her face.

Larissa had a smile on her face, “No, it’s not that I’m sick, I came to the hospital with someone else.”

“That’s good, it’s good that you’re not sick.” Cleo had a smile on her face as well. After a pause, he opened his mouth as if he remembered something and spoke to Larissa, “Larissa, Aunt Celena came to me and asked me about your recent situation. I told her that I haven’t seen you lately either.”

He and Larissa grew up together as childhood friends.

Larissa subconsciously furrowed her pretty brows and looked at Cleo, “Dr. Cleo, you should ignore her from now on.”

“Hmm. It’s best if you think about it. I came home yesterday to hear that Aunt Celena had gone to The Elbert family to see her uncle and made a scene, and she cursed your dad the whole way back. Your dad and the others, they didn’t call you and chastise you, did they?”

“No.”

Larissa’s relationship with The Elbert family, while not good, hadn’t been contentious. Her dad hadn’t cared much for her before, but he still managed to smile at her when he saw her, especially if she did something that made her dad proud.

But then from the time she met her real mother and came into contact with her real mother, her dad never looked at her kindly again.

There were maids in the family who liked her adoptive mother and would speak up for her, scolding her a few times for being a white-eyed wolf who couldn’t be fed well and so on, but her adoptive mother didn’t scold her. She also knew her adoptive mother’s nature, and her father’s affection. It seemed like they were both right, but she had done nothing to make it a mistake from the moment she was born into this world.

When Larissa didn’t say anything, Cleo reached over and patted her on the shoulder, lowering her voice as she spoke, “I know you’ve always known exactly what to do with all of this, it’s just going to be hard and feel powerless.”

“Well… Dr. Cleo, has your medical community developed any medicines that work like Forget-Me-Not or Monk’s Soup?”

Meeting Larissa’s line of sight, Cleo looked at the seriousness on Larissa’s face, he asked her suspiciously, “Are you trying to lose your memory?”

“It’s not for me, it’s for my birth mother, I want to give my birth mother amnesia.”

Getting Celena to lose her memory, that wouldn’t be a bad idea, just as soon as Celena was made to lose her memory, then the whole The Elbert family got peace, even Larissa didn’t have as much to worry about.

Cleo looked at Larissa, frowning, also with a serious and serious face, “I’ll ask if there is such a medicine. You can also find someone to develop it.”

Suddenly, Larissa laughed out, “I was teasing you, you have to really go get this kind of medicine.”

Hearing Larissa say this, Cleo first froze, and then a smile appeared on her face, as if she was infected by the smile on Larissa’s face, “You, when did you learn to joke? This is not like your character.”

According to the Larissa he knew, she was as strong as a hedgehog on the outside, but soft and heartbreaking on the inside, she never joked, and even her smile was rare.

“Learned it from someone else recently.”

“Who? So humorous, I’d like to get to know them.” Cleo laughed at the casual remark.

Larissa shot back at him, “You know.”

“I know?”

It was actually Nathanael Lora, he used to love nothing more than to joke around like this and tell the truth, initially it was also when he joked in front of Ewenny that he wanted to chase after her and make her his girlfriend, at that time she took it seriously, only to find out later that he said it on purpose for Ewenny to hear.

At this time Nathanael’s mother came over from a distance and saw Larissa standing with a man with a smile on her face, she then said with a cold face, “Let you pay the bill you paid it for such a long time!”

Larissa looked at Nathanael’s mother, although she sensed that Nathanael’s mother was unhappy, she introduced herself to Nathanael’s mother graciously, “Auntie, this is my friend that I grew up with, Cleo, the director here. We just happened to run into each other, so we chatted a bit more and got delayed.”

“Hm. Hurry over and help take care of the baby, it’s starting to cry again.” Nathanael’s mother, preoccupied with her child, pulled Larissa over to hurry over.

Such a move made Larissa feel uncomfortable inside.
