“Don’t worry, even if you agree to marry me, I won’t…”
Before Tiffany could finish her sentence, Murphy interrupted her abruptly. “Levant, you’ve gone
overboard! I’ll care for this child.”
“There’s no need for you to do so. I’ll raise him up on my own.”
Murphy was worried to let Tiffany care for his grandchild alone.
Sophia immediately chipped in to give her advice. “Tiffany, it won’t be possible for you to attend to the
baby when your body is still so weak. So why don’t you stay here with me? I’m free most of the time and
I can help you babysit. It’s not like Evan and Nicole will bear me a baby anytime soon, anyway.”
“Thank you for the offer. But I’m a designer and I have a dedicated person-in-charge who looks into the
operations of my company. It’s really not that difficult for me to babysit while working from home. I should
be fine.”
“No. This won’t do, this is my grandchild and I’ll worry if you care for him alone,” uttered Murphy.
Tiffany looked at him. “Back when you forced me to stay at the Wicked Palace, I really hated you. But
after getting to know you better during these few months, I’ve come to appreciate the love and care that
you’ve shown me. I know that you only did that out of your sincere affection for the baby. Nonetheless, I
must thank you. I don’t resent you anymore and I see you as a respectable elder now. Whenever you are
free, you are welcome to come and visit my baby.”
Murphy froze and his eyes welled up. He really couldn’t bear the thought of separating from his
grandson.
“Tiffany, will you be okay doing it alone?” Sophia was apprehensive to let her go as well.
She nodded. “Don’t worry. If anything comes up or if I need any urgent help, I’ll ring and ask for you to
lend a hand.”
“I think this is a good arrangement. Uncle Morris, if you’re still worried, you can assign two capable maids
to help babysit.”
Murphy considered Evan’s suggestion. “So be it, then.”
It’s obvious that both Tiffany and Levant are obdurate, regardless of any advice given. All I could wish
now is for the child to grow up faster so that he’ll be like how the quadruplets were, who worked hard on
getting Nicole and Evan back together. When that happens, they can return to stay with me at the
Wicked Palace then.
Since Murphy had agreed to the idea, Sophia said, “Tiffany, I’ll select two maids to help you out, all
right?”
Tiffany gave it a thought. “I think one is enough. And I’ll pay for her monthly salary.”
“Don’t be silly. You’re already doing so much, how could we let you contribute more? No worries. I’ll
make all the arrangements accordingly.”
Just then, a maid from the Imperial Garden showed up with a box in her arms.
“Mr. Seet, this is the box that you’ve asked for.”
Evan took the box and opened it. Levant yelled when he saw the content. “These are the items that you
swapped!”
Evan shot him a stare. “That’s where you’re wrong. These are my welcome gifts for the newborn. Ms.
Watson, please accept them.”
What?
He’s giving it to Tiffany? Levant knitted his brows.
A thin smile settled on Nicole’s face. So, by “another woman,” Evan was actually referring to Tiffany.
Well, this is an excellent decision.
“Tiffany, accept them, please.” Nicole took the box from Evan and carefully placed them on Tiffany’s
hand, who was too shy to receive it.
She took a look at its contents and gasped. “Oh no, this is too expensive. I can’t accept it.”
“Yes you can, it’s rightfully yours. Just take it as you’re accepting the gift on behalf of your son.”
Nicole insisted and forced the box on her. Tiffany felt uncomfortable accepting such a luxurious
present. But I didn’t do anything to deserve this.
“I’ll be the temporary guardian of these precious items then. If you need it, please feel free to claim it
back anytime.”
“We don’t need it. This is for your child. So, keep it for him,” Nicole reiterated.
“That’s right, please accept the gift, Tiffany. You deserve it!” Sophia glared at Levant while he remained
quiet.
Evan cleared his throat and gave Levant a taunting stare. See that? Didn’t I say before that even though
it’s your belongings, you still won’t be able to get them back. Gifting them to Tiffany is the best idea ever.
And I doubt you’ll have the guts to claim it back from her…
