Snare of Love
Chapter 786 Only Wanted to Enjoy the World of a Couple

Matthew walked over and held him in his arms. His posture was awkward and unskillful.

He seldom had chances to hold the baby after it came back, so he was quite inexperienced.

He patted and swayed the baby gently, but the baby wasn't calmed down. Instead, it cried more and more fiercely.

"Wah... Wah..."

Matthew wondered if the baby was hungry. He put it down and was about to make the formula milk. Right then, Coral came back. Seeing the baby weeping so hard, she asked, "What happened?" Matthew said, "Probably he's hungry..."

"He has just had some milk before sleeping. I don't think he's hungry." Coral held the weeping baby in her arms.

Matthew made the formula milk and passed it to the baby, but he refused to take it.

"See? I've told you he's not hungry." Coral put the baby on the bed and took off the one-piece clothing for him and opened the diaper. Same as she had thought...

Matthew watched her while standing aside.

He didn't know what he could do.

Coral got some water, wiped the baby with a wet towel, and washed his butt with the warm water.

After she changed the clean diaper for the baby, the little fellow stopped crying. Rarely, he didn't fall asleep. Instead, he widened his eyes and stared at the man who was looking at him.

Since they were afraid the disposable diaper could cause rashes, so they used the diaper cloths for the baby. Coral needed to wash the changed diaper, so she took the basin of water together downstairs. Matthew sat down on the edge of the bed, and the little baby looked over at him. A one-month-old baby couldn't see anything that was too far away, so he could only stare at the thing in a short distance. Matthew waved his hand in front of the baby, who followed the movements curiously as if the baby was wondering what it was.

Later, he heard some footsteps toward upstairs. Then Dolores pushed the door open and came in.

She put down the purse and case a glance at her son. "Armand hired a young nanny."

When she went to see Theresa, only Armand was there. It was that nanny who delivered the dinner to Theresa. Elizabeth seemed to like the nanny a lot, kept calling her name. Matthew had no interest in such a matter, still gazing at his son.

Dolores patted him. "I'm talking to you."

Matthew said, "I know Armand has hired a young nanny. What does it have anything to do with me?"

Dolores choked up.

She sat on his lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and said, "Let's replace a young and pretty nanny for ourselves as well, shall we?"

Matthew curled up his lips into a smile. "Man or woman?"

Dolores asked, "Which one do you prefer? Man or woman?"

"What about a woman?..."

Before he finishes speaking, he felt a pinch on his waist.

Matthew whispered, "Are you trying to kill your dear husband?"

Dolores released him. Looking serious, she said, "I'm serious. I wonder what's on Armand's mind. Why didn't he hire a married and elder nanny? Such a nanny works hard. The young one..."

"Although Armand has some character defect, he wouldn't do anything beyond his principles. Don't worry too much."

Dolores heaved a sigh. She wasn't worried that Armand would do anything, but she was afraid the young nanny would have an evil mind.

"Two years ago, there was a case that a nanny set up a fire. That case could show how greedy a person could be. I don't have any discrimination against them, but I know young girls can't bear the material temptation at all..."

"Enough," Matthew interrupted her. "You're always worried about others."

"They are not others. Theresa is a family of mine, and Armand is your..."

"I'm sleepy now." Matthew lay down next to the baby, holding it in his arms. Obviously, he refused to discuss others with her.

Dolores quieted down.

She couldn't insist on talking about it, so she could only stand up and took a shower before going to bed.

One week later, Theresa was informed that the embryo cultivation failed, let alone the transplant.

Nowadays because of the advanced techniques, it was rare for embryos to stop developing during cultivation

According to the doctor, it might be a matter of the egg. If they wanted to continue, Theresa needed to continue to take the injections for the ovulation induction. Then cultivation would start again. Immediately, Elizabeth said, "We must do it again. I can't let the Bernie family have no later generations."

How ridiculous for someone in the modern era to say those words! So many people were even afraid of getting married and giving birth.

Some were afraid that it would be difficult to raise the children, and some didn't want to give birth at all and only wanted to enjoy a world of a couple.

Of course, some people wanted to give birth but they couldn't.

For this kind of people, it was indeed suffering.

Armand didn't speak at all. He picked Theresa up. Instead of going back home, he rented an apartment outside.

He knew that Theresa might have a health problem if they continued doing it. It would be quite harmful to her. They couldn't destroy Theresa just because his grandmother wanted a great-grandchild. On the other hand, Elizabeth went to pray in a temple. She also went to see a fortune teller.

She told her family conditions to the fortune teller, and the fortune teller said he must go to see her house before ensuring what was going on.

Hence, Elizabeth invited the fortune teller back home.

Later, the fortune teller said that there was something wrong with the geomantic omen of her house. However, he could resolve it for her as long as she was willing to pay.

Of course, Elizabeth didn't think it was a big deal as long as the money could solve the problem.

Without any hesitation, she just wished that her dream would come true. Hence, the fortune teller did some Taoism rituals in her house.

No matter if it worked, Elizabeth was relieved after spending so much money. She believed that the next time would be a success.

They failed this time because something was wrong with the geomantic omen in her house.

After settling down Theresa, Armand came back home. He wanted to pack the luggage for him and Theresa.

Then, he found the British-styled clock was removed from the living room. Instead, there were two swords made of the peach tree, between which there was a mirror. Armand frowned and asked, "What are these things?"0000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
