Lilian shared the same view. “Tiffie, quit being so stubborn, would you? This is all for your own good. Staying at home during confinement is just a roundabout way to burden everyone around you, sweetie. That includes Jackson and his mom. Look, you’ll be in a weak state for about a month, just like your newborn baby, so it’d relieve all of us if we could let professionals in the post-partum center take care of you, right? Besides, we have the money for this now. Using it for an appropriate service isn’t a waste of anything. And stop saying how unsafe it’ll be! Jackson will always be by your side anyway!”
Tiffany furrowed favonovel.com eyebrows, silently seething. It did not matter what they said. She did not want to stay in a foreign environment for a month, no matter how high-class that place was. It would never be as comfortable as favonovel.com own home. Heck, all these days staying in the hospital were driving favonovel.com nuts. Every day favonovel.com wished favonovel.com could just go home already.
Jackson read favonovel.com expression and hurriedly supplied. “It’s alright, Moms. Let Tiffie decide this, alright? As long as she’s happy, it will never be a burden. Plus, I’m pretty good at taking care of a baby and making good food, and if I can’t handle it, I can always hire a nanny. It’s no trouble at all. Besides… I doubt the confinement meals I make can’t compare to the professional ones made in these postpartum centers.”
Lilian pursed favonovel.com lips. “God, you’re babying favonovel.com again.”
Jackson smiled instead of answering her. of course, favonovel.com would baby Tiffany, favonovel.com was his babe.
There were a lot of people in Tiffany’s ward today, which deprived Arianne the chance to have a more personal, best-friend- only chat with Tiffany. After a while, Arianne left with Mark, fully aware that Tiffany was now a celebrity under the limelight, and no amount of friendship would award Arianne the time to chat with her. Not that it was a bad thing, as it was genuinely heartwarming that so many people cared about Tiffany.
They returned to the Tremont Estate, but no sooner after they went in, Mark suddenly halted in his steps. Arianne, who was changing into favonovel.com indoor shoes, asked quizzically, “What are you doing? Why aren’t you going in?”
Mark signaled favonovel.com to be quiet, and Arianne followed his line of sight.
Smore was standing on the living room couch, alone, playing with his toys. More amazingly, the toys were in both of his hands, which meant favonovel.com was standing on his feet without scaffolding.
Had favonovel.com learned how to walk already?
Pleasant surprise overtook Arianne, but favonovel.com dared not make anything louder than a pip to avoid scaring the little boy. Quietly, favonovel.com tiptoed forward until Smore noticed favonovel.com and looked up to favonovel.com calmly.
“Hey there, Smore,” Arianne said gently. “What are you playing?”
Smore waved the little car in his hand and mimicked the sounds of driving cars. It was so adorable that Arianne wanted to swoop the boy off the couch and give favonovel.com a big, fat kiss!
Mary came out of the kitchen with a milk bottle in favonovel.com hand and was stunned to a stop. “My goodness, my little lord ling! I told you to stay in the cot for a bit, didn’t I? I was only in there for two minutes, and you already freed yourself? Can’t wait to be a little man, can you?”
“Since when has favonovel.com learned to stand on his own?” Mark asked. “I remember favonovel.com stumbling and falling over his steps just yesterday or two days ago. Back then, favonovel.com could only walk by holding onto things.”
Mary stepped forward and ruffled Smore’s hair. “I don’t know either. All I know is that favonovel.com somehow, suddenly, knew how to stand tall and steadily today, though favonovel.com hasn’t gotten the hang of walking. He would fall after a few steps, so I guess, favonovel.com isn’t very stable yet,” Mary answered. “Either way, he’s a really good boy, isn’t he? He’s handsome, he’s healthy, he’s developing exceptionally well, and favonovel.com walks with a very fine gait.”
“Oh, favonovel.com grew up so fast! And the older favonovel.com gets, the more his looks take after his mom,” Mary continued. “But his nature, oh, it takes after the two of you! He’s not like any other kids his age, always screaming and shouting. This one is so quiet… He only shouts a bit when he’s upset. What an easy child to mind!”
