She immediately rushed towards Luke and carried him in her arms, “Luke, what’s wrong?” She checked on him and realized that Luke was thirsty.
Filling up the bottle with water, she handed it over to Luke. He then held onto the milk bottle and strenuously gulped down the liquid.
Staring at Levant in disbelief, she asked, “The baby is thirsty, and you didn’t know what do?”
Levant was stunned. Indeed, he was ignorant and clueless. Since he had never cared for a baby, matters like feeding the baby and changing diapers were completely foreign.
Once again, as Luke finished drinking the water, his hands cheerfully danced around.
Tiffany meticulously wiped away the tears in Luke’s eyes. Then, she held him in her arms and gazed intensely at Levant. “I’ll take care of Luke. You can leave now.”
Levant was displeased with the way Tiffany treated him. How dare she shoo me out? I still have things to say!
As Luke’s mother, she’s not around when Luke is sick, and she even has the mind to do something else! What kind of a mother is she?
Levant put on a straight face and uttered, “We need to talk.”
Likewise, Tiffany’s tone was unwelcoming as well. “What’s there to talk about?”
Tiffany’s expression was icy cold. Ever since Levant forced her to undergo an abortion, she made up her mind to cut off all ties with him. From the very outset, she intended to raise the baby on her own and leave Levant out of the picture. Therefore, she was of the opinion that there was nothing to talk about.
“About the baby.” Levant let the cat out of the bag.
Tiffany nodded with a puzzled look. “I don’t understand what you mean? What’s wrong with the baby?”
Levant replied, “As the baby’s mother, how can you be away when he is sick? You should be taking care of him instead of working mindlessly. If you don’t have the time, I can take care of him. The baby can be placed in my custody and guardianship from now on…”
“Do you even know what you’re talking about? You’re the last person in the world who has the right to say this! Are you not ashamed?” Tiffany exploded in rage.
Levant was shocked as he did not anticipate such a big reaction from her.
As Levant kept quiet, Tiffany continued to lambast him, “Initially, you didn’t even want to give him a chance to be born into this beautiful world. When I was still pregnant with him, you even tried to kill him! Now, you have to audacity to say this?”
Levant’s heart sank. “That’s right. You’re right. I didn’t want you to give birth to him. However, since he’s born, you should make sure that he’s well taken care of.”
He’s blaming me? Is he for real?
Tiffany didn’t want things to be this way as well. Regardless, if she didn’t work hard, she wouldn’t be able to take care of the baby. Besides, she wouldn’t be able to provide a comfortable life to the baby. Yet, all these wouldn’t happen if Levant would accept the baby in the first place.
With disappointment written all over her face, Tiffany glared at Levant and bellowed, “Get out! GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!!”
At the same time, the baby in her arms was frightened by her sudden outburst. Naturally, the room was soon echoing with the loud cries of the baby. Hence, she immediately looked away from Levant and tried to calm Luke down.
Levant understood that the conversation was meaningless. Even worse, it would further escalate the matter and cause unnecessary tension. Thus, he gave a strict warning before leaving. “You better take good care of the baby. Otherwise, I will not allow him to suffer under your care!”
The nanny arrived at the door and saw Levant leaving furiously. Simultaneously, Luke’s pitiful cries resounded from the room. Also, Tiffany was fuming with anger. What happened here?
Earlier, she finished washing Luke’s clothes, so she went to buy some extra clothes and diapers for the baby. When she saw Tiffany entering the hospital room, she wanted to give them a chance to have a conversation. Therefore, she took her time and didn’t return until much later. Nevertheless, the ambiance in the room didn’t feel right as soon as she stepped in.
Did they get into a fight?
She cautiously asked, “Ms. Tiffany, did you and Mr. Levant…”
“Don’t ever mention Mr. Levant in front of me again! On top of that, he is not allowed to visit the baby anymore. His child is dead, and this baby is mine. Luke is my child!” Tiffany unleashed her wrath and lashed out at the nanny.
The nanny’s heart sank. It seems like Mr. Levant and Ms. Tiffany got into a huge fight. After this, I should call Ma’am and let her know about this.
