Yohan said with a bright smile, looking very excited.
Gently caressing his fluffy hair, Estelle said softly, “These... were not bought by me. Do you like Iron Man best? Okay. I will remember that. You can tell me everything you like in the future. I’ll buy it for you.”
“Then who bought them for me? Is it Aunt Rebecca?” Yohan asked in confusion.
Rebecca shrugged and said, “I’m not that omnipotent to buy so many toys for you. They were all bought by your dad.”
“My dad?” Yohan was a little surprised.
“Not your biological dad, but your new dad,” Rebecca suddenly blurted out.
Yohan didn’t quite understand what Rebecca meant, and he only cared about one thing. “Is this dad good to my Mom?”
“Yes. He treats your mom very well,” Rebecca nodded and answered.
Hearing this, Yohan smiled happily and said, “That’s good. As long as Mom can be happy, I will also be happy.”
Pleasantly surprised by his words, Rebecca held him in her arms and said enviously, “Estelle, your son is so sweet. If I can have such a good son in the future, I will show off to everyone.”
“Auntie Rebecca, you can come to see my mom frequently so that you can also see me often,” Yohan said.
“No problem! You like Iron Man, right? I will buy you more Iron Man merchandise for you. I’ll buy whatever you want for you!” Rebecca said without hesitation and kissed him on the cheek.
Seeing the interaction between them, Estelle couldn’t help chuckling and felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
‘Although Cristofer hurt me many times, I should thank him for not fighting against me for custody of the two children.’
‘From now on, I’ll start a new life with Mr. Mysterious and the two children. We’ll live a happy life. And if I can give birth to a child for Mr. Mysterious, that will be better.’
When Estelle was lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was Justin calling, she answered the phone immediately.
“Estelle, do you like the apartment? If you need anything else, just let me know.” Justin’s voice came from the other end of the line.
“I like it very much. And I don’t need anything else now. You have... no, I mean Mr. Mysterious has prepared everything for us,” Estelle said in a softer voice.
“That’s good,” Justin said with a chuckle.
“Mr. Roberts, thank you.”
“Actually, the one you should thank is not me,” Justin said meaningfully. “I still can’t tell you everything, but I have to tell you that I did not prepare those things. I can’t take all the credit on myself.”
Hearing this, Estelle was a little stunned. “You didn’t prepare all these? Then who prepared them?”
“It’s...” Justin suddenly chuckled again. Then he continued, “It’s the landlady. She is a nice person. When she heard that you will live there with your children, she prepared those things for the children.”
“I see. The landlady is really a good person,” Estelle said.
“Yes,” Justin said.
“Then what about the Iron Man items? Did she also buy them?” Estelle asked.
“What Iron Man items?” Justin was a little surprised.
“Don’t you know that?” Estelle asked.
“Estelle, I don’t know what you are talking about.”
“There are many Iron Man models and some other merchandise in the apartment. Did you ask the landlady to buy them for Yohan?” Estelle asked.
“Well... Estelle, I have something urgent to deal with. Let’s talk later. Call me if you need anything. Bye.”
“Okay. Bye,” Estelle said. Somehow, she felt a hint of chagrin in Justin’s tone.
“Was it Justin calling?” Rebecca came over and asked.
“Yes,” Estelle nodded and said. “He said that the landlady prepared all these things.”
Rebecca chuckled, “He must have asked the landlady to help him buy all this. Otherwise, how could it be possible that the landlady bought so many Iron Man items? She also likes Iron Man?”
Estelle sighed and said helplessly, “Maybe it just so happens that she or her child also likes Iron Man.”
In the afternoon, Rebecca drove Estelle back to the hospital for the last examination.
Looking at the CT image, the Doctor showed a relieved smile and said, “Miss Hudson, there is no sign of cancer cell metastasis, and no other diseased part is found in your lung. You can be discharged from the hospital now. But you’d better have a reexamination in three months.”
“Okay. Thank you, Doctor,” Estelle said.
“By the way, your physical examination results show that you are still too weak. You still suffer from hypoglycemia and hypotension. Although they are not big problems, you still should pay more attention to them in the future. Eat healthily. And if you have a maid at home, ask her to cook more nutritious food for you.”
“I can also cook by myself,” Estelle said.
“That’s good,” the Doctor said, signed the discharging consent, and handed it to her. “Have a good rest after you go back home.”
At this time, Rebecca asked anxiously, “Doctor, is there anything else that she needs to pay attention to? Can she go to work?”
“She can go to work, but she can’t be overworked. After all, the incision will take some time to heal completely,” the Doctor explained. “And she should be careful when taking the subway or bus in case others accidentally touch the incision.”
Rebecca listened intently and said, “This shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll drive her to work and pick her up when she gets off work. Anything else?”
The Doctor thought for a while and asked Estelle, “Miss Hudson, I saw on the medical record that your marital status is ‘Married’. You are married, right?”
“Yes, but I’ll divorce soon.”
“Sorry. I just want to remind you that you can’t have sex for now.”
With a helpless smile, Estelle said, “I see. I won’t.”
“Well, that’s it. You can be discharged now. Don’t forget to come for a reexamination three months later,” the Doctor said gently.
“Okay. Thank you, Doctor.”
After leaving the hospital, Rebecca sent Estelle back to the apartment.
“Estelle, do have a good rest. Don’t worry about your mother. I’ll take care of her.” Rebecca said.
“Thank you so much, Rebecca.”
“Don’t mention it,” Rebecca waved her hand and said smilingly. “Then I’m leaving now. Howard will give a concert tonight. Although I’m just his nominal girlfriend, I have to go and show my support for him.”
“Okay. Drive safely,” Estelle said.
Rebecca then drove away.
Estelle watched her car until it was out of sight. Then she entered the building and took the elevator back home.
