Chapter 491

Jenny said with a tough tone, "Samuel, if you do not wish to be with Ella, I will bring her to our home assoon as she wakes up. My daughter is the apple of my eyes. We raised her up with great attention. Wewon't let her endure any suffering!"

Viola heard the accusation and was quite annoyed. Before Samuel could say anything, she stepped upand stood in front of Samuel and replied, "What do you mean by all these words? What kind ofsuffering Ella is enduring now? Who is giving her a hard time?" Ella must have been talking bullshit infront of her parents.

Jenny looked at the way Viola acted, rude and sharp. She looked nothing like an elegant and charmingbank manager.

Samuel pulled Viola over and made her stand aside. He faced Jenny himself and replied, "Mom, I amvery sorry. Please don't be mad anymore. I will make sure things like that will never happen again."

The sincere tone in Samuel's voice made Jenny less angry. But when she thought of the fact thatduring Ella's pregnancy Samuel never showed up, she just couldn't let things go.

Jenny was filled with anger and snapped, "Do you have any idea how hard it is for a woman to gothrough her pregnancy?" "When Ella was in the apartment, you being her husband, were never therefor even one day. What were you thinking?" "If you are not pleased with my daughter, just say it. Whyon earth make her suffer premature birth?"

On hearing her remarks, the Lowell family were all quite embarrassed. It was true that they neglectedElla back then.

Samuel lowered his head and accepted the anger from Jenny. He did not say a word.

Richard walked over to them. Although he was quite angry himself, he did a good job of covering it up.He said to Jenny with the intent to mediate the situation, "Enough, just knock it off!" "Both yourdaughter and grandson are safe now, there is nothing to be mad about."

Jenny usually had a good temper but there was one thing she could not stand: her precious daughterbeing bullied. She threw away Richard's arm, making it very clear that she was not ready to let Samueloff the hook.

"Mom ..." Ella's voice was so gentle and weak from the ward bed. Her sound almost made Jenny cry..

Her precious daughter! She had never let her daughter suffer like this or get bullied like this!

Samuel walked over to the bed with Jenny. He looked at them, as Jenny held up Ella's hand tightly.

Richard also walked over and gently looked at Ella: "My dear child, did we just wake you up?"

Ella shook her head. She overheard half of what they said, but she decided to pretend that she knewnothing about it. She looked up and smiled: "Mom, Dad, when did you arrive? Have you seen yourgrandchild?"

Jenny raised up her head and held back her tears. She looked at her daughter and shook her head: " Iwas busying checking you out. I didn't have time for him yet. Now I need to take a good look at thebaby."

Jenny let go of Ella's hand and held up the sleeping baby. Richard walked over as well and lovinglylooked at Jerry. Jenny was amazed and said: "His cute little mouth looks just like Ella's when she was ababy. And the nose, the resemblance is uncanny!"

Jenny's words made Viola quite upset. To her, it was obvious that the baby took after her son.

Samuel curled up his lips with satisfaction. Ella was a beauty and it was a good thing that the babylooked like her.

Melody was relieved as the two were no longer fighting. A while ago the conversation between themgot so intense that she could not say anything.

She understood well enough what kind of person her daughter-in-law was. She had a sharp mouth andwas way too stubborn to give in. If it were not for her unyielding character, she would not have madeenemies at her job and could have been promoted from bank manager already.

She had warned Viola many times before, but she never listened.

Melody quietly pulled Samuel's sleeve and winked at him.

Samuel looked back at his grandma in silence as he didn't need to be told about what to do. Then, hewalked up to Ella's bed and asked: "Are you thirsty?"

Ella looked at the caring man and smiled. She did not reject his offer and nodded softly.

As she just had her operation, Ella was not advised to drink water directly. So Samuel used a Q-tip anddipped it in warm water to moisturize Ella's chapped lips.

Ella smacked her lips in thirst. The chapped lips now looked better and moisturized.

Samuel paused as he could not help but think back to the night when he was enchanted by her smell...

Ella noticed the heat from Samuel's gaze and tried to hide herself in the quilt as she was shy. Why wasSamuel gazing at her like that? It looked like... A wolf had spotted his game.

"Samuel..." She was about to call him dearest. But she realized that her parents were here and shecould not call him like that.

Samuel came to his senses and continued moisturizing Ella's lips. However, before long his mindwandered off again.

Ella looked at Samuel as he was apparently not focusing at the moment. She was confused andthought, 'What is wrong with Samuel today?'

Eventually it was Jerry's crying sound that pulled Samuel back to the reality.

Jenny patted the baby for a while but he just wouldn't stop crying "He must be hungry!" Melodyreminded them.

This made Jenny aware of the situation and she quickly put the baby next to Ella. Richard took acigarette out of his pocket and walked out the ward with Vincent as they were chatting.

Ella looked at her crying son and was at loss for a while. She looked awkwardly at her mother andgrandma. ·

Melody briskly walked up and said, "Let the boy eat something."

This remark made Ella blush. Was she going to breast feed the baby? But Samuel was standing therelooking at her...

Melody looked at red-faced Ella impatiently and said, "Do you need grandma to teach you how to feedthe baby?" She completely ignored Samuel's existence.

Jenny walked over as well. She knew that this was the first time for her daughter to be a mother. Shewas sure she did not understand everything about motherhood.

"Now you need to feed the baby well. Even if you do not have milk yet, you still need to let him suckle.Eventually the milk will come." She patiently imparted her experience to Ella. ·

Ella sure knew all this. But Samuel was still there. She was now quite embarrassed. Samuel wascompletely confused as what to feed his son.

As her mother and grandmother were both looking at her expectantly, Ella braced herself and lifted upher clothes.

The baby immediately found his food and stopped crying. Jenny and Melody were quite relieved. ·

Samuel saw all these and his body froze. He almost forgot that was how babies eat.

He looked up at Ella's red face and realized why she was so embarrassed.

Samuel felt awkward and coughed a little. He picked up his cigarette packet and walked towards theward door.

This time, Viola who was sitting on the sofa called out to him and said, "Samuel, now that you have achild, you should cut down on the smoking. Especially when the baby is present, you should not smokeat all!"

Samuel heard the remark and nodded. He thought to himself, 'I will pay more attention for the sake ofthe child.'

Ella was quite relieved as Samuel walked out. It was indeed very awkward just now.

When the night fell, Samuel brought his computer to the ward and looked after the mother and thechild. Ella was sleeping most of the time like her son as she was exhausted from the labor.

When it was about eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Ella woke up due to hunger. She opened hereyes and saw the dim light. She realized that she was still in the hospital.

She lifted up her head with effort and saw her son soundly sleeping. Then she vaguely saw Samuelwho was working on his computer on the sofa.
