Unforgettable love

Chapter 787



Chapter 787:

Elizabeth was napping in her bedroom. Normally, when Armand was gone, Dora took care of her. Hearing Armand’s question, she told him that Elizabeth had invited a fortune teller and had a Taoism ritual in the house.

“The teacher said Theresa should sleep in the bedroom.”

Armand knew how much Elizabeth was looking forward to having a great-grandchild. To his surprise, his grandmother would be so superstitious.

He went into his and Theresa’s bedroom. Pushing open the door, he saw several stork dolls with incense on the table. The bedroom looked and smelled rather strange.

He could hardly believe his eyes: if Theresa saw this room, he was sure she would be very depressed.

Even Armand thought he was going crazy.

Fortunately, he did not take Theresa home. Now he felt very lucky. He went into the room, opened the closet and found a suitcase. Then he began to pack his clothes into the suitcase.

When he finished packing, Elizabeth woke up as he was about to leave.

Seeing him pull the luggage, she asked him, “Where are you going, where’s Theresa, shouldn’t she be coming home today?”

“I sent her to C-Town. She’s busy there…”

“What’s so important as having a baby? It’s not her fault the crop failed this time. Mistress said it was because there was something wrong with the geomantic omen in our house. I invited her to do a Taoism ritual for us. Next time, it will surely work. Hurry up. Take her home.”

“Grandmother! She is a human. You can’t treat her like a tool to give birth…”

“What are you talking about? She’s your wife too. Isn’t it natural for your wife to give birth to your babies?” Elizabeth was anxious. “Hurry up! Take her back home.”

“No way. She’s gone.”

Elizabeth slapped him several times in anger. “Hurry! Bring her back!”

“No way.” Armand was very determined.

Elizabeth was furious and wondered if he wanted to beat her to death. “You want me to die? All right. I’ll kill myself in your presence.”

Elizabeth spun her wheelchair around and was about to hit the wall.

Armand froze. He said, “Grandma, you haven’t had a great-grandchild yet. If you were to die, how would you explain it to the last family members in heaven? You’d better not die.”

After speaking, he pulled the luggage and left.

Elizabeth was very angry. Grabbing a teacup from the table, she threw it at Armand’s back.

“That out…” Dora hastened to remind him.

Armand turned his face back to Elizabeth. Leaning over, he dodged the teacup, which crashed against the wall.

He said to Dora casually, “Take good care of my grandmother. If you manage to delight her, I’ll give you a bonus.”

“Armand!”

“Grandma, I’m going to C-Town for a while. When Theresa gets better, we’ll come back.” After finishing his words, Armand left the house without turning his back.

Elizabeth patted the armrests of the wheelchair angrily. “Armand, you want me to die, don’t you?” she shouted.

No matter how much Elizabeth screamed or cried, Armand didn’t back down.

He knew his grandmother would resist dying. She still wanted a great-grandchild.

The apartment Armand was renting wasn’t large, it only had a living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. It was good for the two of them to stay. They didn’t have to prepare anything, as there were all kinds of things in the apartment, so they settled right in.

Besides, the apartment was close to Armand’s law firm.

When he returned, Theresa was napping in bed. Since the apartment had a bedroom and a living room, both were quite spacious. The decor in the bedroom was quite neat, with light pink walls, a large white bed, simple lamps, and warm-colored curtains. There was a hanging chair on the balcony, on which was a white curry cushion and pink square pillows. In front of the hanging chair was a four-tiered flower shelf with many fresh green plants and succulents. There was also an oval glass jar with seaweed and colored stones. In the jar, several fish could often be seen swimming happily, looking quite energetic.

The whole decoration showed that the people staying in the apartment loved life very much, which made Armand feel quite delighted.

Seeing Armand hanging clothes in the closet, Theresa became concerned, “We just moved in all of a sudden, will Grandma be mad?”noveldrama

Armand didn’t look back at her. He said, “She’s always unhappy. If she gets angry, she’s making it hard on herself.”

After he finished hanging up the clothes, he put the suitcase in the upstairs closet. Then she walked over to the bed and sat on the edge, “I know you were feeling pretty depressed staying home, and so was I. Theresa pressed her lips together.

Armand reached up and tucked her hair behind her ear and whispered, “My dear Theresa…”. Theresa responded with a hum.

Armand continued, “What would you like to eat? I’ll cook for you.”

Actually, he wanted to tell her not to think about anything. All she had to do was take good care of herself.

However, he was afraid she would think too much after hearing his words, so he swallowed them.

“Can you cook?”

Theresa didn’t know she had that ability.

Armand smiled, tucking her into the comforter. “Let’s enjoy every moment being together.”

Theresa gave him a look and said yes.

“Get some rest. I’ll call you when the food is ready.” Theresa agreed.

Armand got up, walked out of the bedroom and closed the door.

Theresa lay down on one side. As she glanced around the strange apartment, she became very relaxed.

At that moment, she was very afraid to confront Elizabeth. If she had succeeded, all would be well. However, he failed.

He wondered what Elizabeth would complain about.

He guessed it wouldn’t be anything pleasant to hear.

Theresa shook her head, ridding herself of the cluttered mind. Fortunately, they weren’t home now. Even if Elizabeth complained about her, Theresa wouldn’t hear it. Out of sight, out of mind.

She couldn’t sleep, so she got up, draped a coat over her shoulders and sat in the hanging chair. Stretching out her fingers, she stroked the fish in the jar.
