My Sweet Wife

After being in the hospital for a while, Nathanael Lora received a call from his secretary.

“President Nathanael, I’ve booked your flight.”

Nathanael Lora glanced at the child lying in the hospital bed, thought for a moment, and then spoke to the secretary on the other end of the line, “Cancel the flight.”

“Also, report all the accounts that are rumoring about my fiancée and block them. Notify my fiancée’s agent again, tell them that I don’t want, my fiancée to have the slightest bit of gossip.”

The person on the other end of the phone answered, “Yes, President.”

Ewenny, who heard Nathanael Lora’s call, was half happy mixed with half sad, happy that Nathanael Lora didn’t go to Larissa and stayed to take care of her, and sad that he was so dedicated to Larissa’s affairs.

But looking at the situation, Nathanael Lora will definitely keep her to stay in The Lora family, even if The Lora family knows that her baby is not Nathanael Lora’s and wants to kick her out, with Nathanael Lora guarding her, she will be able to stay in The Lora family with peace of mind.

Ewenny puts on a gentle and understanding look, her eyes still contain tears as she looks at Nathanael Lora, “Brother Nathanael, if you have something to do you can go and get busy, don’t worry about me.”

“No need for the time being, Larissa is now abroad, these scandals in the country, for the time being, they can’t affect her much.”

Ewenny heard Nathanael Lora say this, his face revealed a downcast look, after a long half a minute, before he spoke, “Larissa … and I used to be close girlfriends. But now it has become like this, she seems to hate me to the bone.”

Before she left the country, she still had kindness to spare and had struggled, but now she no longer would hesitate a bit.

If she could snatch it back, it would mean that Nathanael Lora’s heart, was still with her. It would mean that as fate would have it, she was the young grandmother of The Lora family, Nathanael Lora’s wife.

“Don’t think too much, Larissa, she’s not a narrow minded person who would hold a grudge against anyone.” Nathanael Lora looked to Ewenny and lowered her voice to comfort her.

She had done something to disgust him before she left the country, so Leonardo Cooper had deported her to Canadian and he hadn’t helped. Now, looking at her in such a pitiful state, knowing that she hadn’t had a good year or so, he felt some sympathy for her.

He stayed with her at the hospital to look after the baby with her, and did not leave the hospital to go to work at the office.

At noon, Nathanael’s mother came to see them in the hospital with a meal, “I thought you guys must be taking care of the baby and couldn’t get away. So I packed some meals straight from home. I let bring all your favorites.”

“How is the baby now?” Nathanael’s mother watched as Nathanael Lora finished her sentence and then quickly approached the hospital room to look at the child sleeping on the hospital bed.

Seeing Nathanael’s mother so worried about the child, Ewenny muttered a little in her heart, didn’t she say that the paternity report would be sent over today?

If it had been sent over, it was impossible for Nathanael’s mother to still be so concerned about her child.

Ewenny looked at Nathanael’s mother and softly said, ”The child’s fever has just gone down a little bit, and it is now more than thirty-eight degrees. The doctor told not to worry. Said that if it’s normal, he’ll be able to take the baby out of the hospital in the morning.”

“That’s good, that’s good. It’s amazing that a child can have a fever with so many people in the house.” Nathanael’s mother blamed herself a little for being heartbroken for her child.

“No child is free from sickness. Baby he has been sick a few times since he was born and I have experience in taking care of him. Don’t worry, Auntie.”

Nathanael’s mother looked at Ewenny suddenly had some bad feelings in her heart, she has been a mom all know that bringing up a child is not easy, this year or so, Ewenny brought up the child on her own is also really not easy, she patted Ewenny’s shoulder and said, “Tough on you.”

“It’s not hard, I’m this child’s mom, it’s all as it should be.”

While the two of them were talking, Nathanael Lora was opening her lunchbox and setting out her meal to eat as well.

Seeing out of the corner of her eye that Nathanael Lora had already opened and set out her meal, Nathanael’s mother urged Ewenny, “Ewenny, you should eat quickly. You have not eaten since this morning, so you must be hungry.”

“Uh-huh.” Ewenny answered and walked over to Nathanael Lora and sat down to eat. Her face was full of worry and her meal was tasteless.

Seeing her eat, with little appetite, Nathanael Lora spoke up, “Eat more.”

“Uhm… Brother Nathanael, you eat more too.”

The two of them sat down to eat together, the look was respectful, Nathanael’s mother had a bit of a wobble, now that Old Lora was telling her son to marry Ewenny, if her son made up with Ewenny, it would be the best for the child to be with his own mother.

After finishing her meal, Ewenny saw Nathanael Lora out the door like she was going to the bathroom. She then withdrew her sight and looked at Nathanael’s mother and spoke, “Auntie, the baby is sick, it really made you worry, the old man is so old, it’s really not right to make his old man worry.”

“The old man is fine, he is worried about the baby, so he asked me to come and check on the baby and bring you food.” Nathanael’s mother spoke to Ewenny as she held the baby and fed him milk.

The words sounded so wrong to Ewenny that she couldn’t tell how it felt in her heart.

If the old man was really worried about the baby, he should at least come along to have a look. Maybe she was overthinking and being too sensitive, the old master might not be in good health and felt that it was really inconvenient to come over, and only then did she let Nathanael’s mother come over to take a look.

Asking Nathanael’s mother these words, Ewenny mainly wanted to probe the situation, she hesitated for a while, but still asked what she wanted to ask the most, “Auntie, has the paternity report come out yet?”

“I don’t think it’s out. I didn’t see the doctor send the report over.” After a pause, Nathanael’s mother raised her eyes to Ewenny, “You’ve got a sick child who’s been hospitalized. Just keep your mind on taking care of the child and don’t worry about the report.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I understand what you are thinking and I understand all of it, you also want to hurry up and prove your relationship with Nathanael and then the child can live in The Lora family in name only.”

Ewenny had a shy smile on her face. Where she wanted the paternity report to come out in a hurry, that coming out was what she was afraid of. She didn’t want the paternity report to come out at all.

Seeing that Ewenny didn’t say anything, Nathanael’s mother then spoke again, “The paternity report isn’t something to be rushed.”

The child she was holding in her arms moved a few times, like a cat humming, and Nathanael’s mother adjusted the child’s position before adding, “This child’s health is what your grandfather and I are most worried about right now.”

“The boy is small, so he needs to be taken care of. Fortunately, the fever has subsided. When this child has a fever, it’s going to get serious and cause a lot of problems, like pneumonia or something, and in severe cases, the brain can be burned out. You put your heart and soul into taking care of the child, so don’t make any more mistakes.”

Saying these words, Nathanael’s mother was still a little worried about the child’s temperature, and tested the temperature of the child’s forehead again with her forehead.

This older people, they all like children, children themselves are inviting and loving, what’s more, Nathanael’s mother feels that this child is her grandson, and is taking true heart towards this child.

Ewenny nodded, the bottom of her eyes began to moist again, “Uh-huh. I will take care of the child, it’s all my fault that this child is so young, sick and suffering so much. I listen to the child crying, heart all clenched pain, looking at the child injection, hate that I can for the child pain.”

“I am also a mom, I understand how you feel. We have three generations of The Lora family, and when Nathanael was a child and had an illness, the whole family couldn’t sleep at night.” Nathanael’s mother reminiscing about the past.

Ewenny tried to please Nathanael’s mother yesterday, said the wrong thing, and upset Nathanael’s mother, not realizing that Nathanael’s mother would treat her like this today when her child was sick.

In the afternoon, both Nathanael’s mother and Nathanael Lora left the hospital.

Ewenny and The Lora family hired a caregiver to look after the baby. Ewenny carried the baby into the bathroom.

Ewenny carried the baby into the bathroom and gave the baby a cold bath, tears were falling from her eyes as she murmured to the baby, “Baby, mommy is sorry, it’s mommy’s fault. Baby you hold on a little longer, mommy is counting on you.”

“Baby wants a new daddy too doesn’t he? It also wants to live in The Lora family and not worry about food and clothing in the future, doesn’t it?”

The baby had a fever, it wasn’t a natural fever at all, it was last night, she was worried that the paternity report would come out today, worried that she would be kicked out of The Lora family, that’s why she did all these things, using the baby, to gain Nathanael Lora’s sympathy.

Yesterday it was just so try, today she found out it was working, she wanted to drag it out and let the baby’s fever get better later so she could have more chance to spend time with Nathanael Lora.

“Good … baby good … baby don’t cry. Baby is a good baby, mommy loves you, mommy will always love you.”

After giving the baby a bath, the caretaker next to her, looked at Ewenny and said, “Ms. Ewenny, let me take care of the baby, you also go take a bath so you can rest.”

“No, I won’t wash it. The child is crying so hard, I’ll just coax her.” Ewenny hugged the child and hurriedly avoided the caretaker’s hand.

The caretaker saw that Ewenny’s reaction was a bit strange, making it seem as if she was a human trafficker who was trying to steal the child.

“What’s wrong with this child? It hasn’t cried as much as it is right now all day today. Is the baby okay?”

The caretaker asked this with concern, but Ewenny had no intention of talking to her, and she was embarrassed and didn’t know what to do.

Only after a good half a minute did Ewenny look at the caretaker standing on the side, “You go out first.”

“Oh, good. Then Ms. Ewenny, ring the bell for me if you need anything.” The nurse answered.

Ewenny watched the caretaker walk out the door of the hospital room before she breathed a small sigh of relief. She had washed the child in cold water and carried him out, this was just out of the bathroom, if she had to be carried over by the caretaker, the caretaker would have been able to try out the child’s body ice.

After carrying the child on the bed, Ewenny wrapped her arms around the child and gently patted the child’s tummy, putting the child to sleep.

As luck would have it, by 1:00 a. m. at night, the baby started to burn again.

Ewenny took out her cell phone and called Nathanael Lora, “Brother Nathanael, Brother Nathanael … can you come to the hospital? The baby has a fever again and I’m worried that the baby has something. What can we do about this?”

“I’ll come over later.”
