Theresa said, “We found the person through an agency and we have seen the photo. She looked decent and she was highly educated …”
The introducer said that this woman had a master’s degree. It was really hard to imagine that she could do something like this.
That was probably how money made the mare go.
“Is it reliable?” Dolores asked again.
Theresa answered. “It shouldn’t go wrong. The negotiated price is three hundred thousand dollars and now only twenty thousand dollars has been paid. Only after when the thing goes smoothly, the balance will be paid. Moreover, she doesn’t know any information about me and Armand at all, so it should be able to avoid a lot of trouble in the future.”
They had found a professional agency and they would identify it after the child was born and make sure it was their child before paying the balance. There was no fear of the child being swapped or replaced with another.
Dolores nodded, “Anyway, you guys have to be cautious.”
“Um …”
Knock, knock…
At this time, there was a knock on the door. Theresa stopped talking while Dolores said, “Come in.” Oscar Adams pushed the door open but he didn’t walk in and just stood there.
As he saw Theresa was in the room. he smiled and said, “What are you guys whispering in the room?”
Dolores smiled and said, “We’re just chatting. Has uncle seen the baby yet?”
He said, “Yes, the baby looks like you.”
The baby was still young and no one could tell who it looked like. She said with a smile, “Uncle is good at making me happy.”
“Lola, I’m ready to go back to City C …”
“In such a hurry?” she wanted to keep him for a few days, after all, he had come here.
“I also want to play here for a few more days, but someone who is surnamed Forbis called me to go back.” He smiled, “He also wanted to follow me when I came, but only one of us could leave as we’ve been busy lately, so we play a rock-paper-scissors game to make a decision. I won, so I came first and it would be his turn when I return.”
Theresa couldn’t help but laugh, “How old are you guys? Are you childish as you still play this game?”
He gave her a look, “You don’t know, this is what men do for fun. You wouldn’t understand.”
Theresa said again, “It’s for immature men. Mature men won’t play this kind of game.”
“Theresa, I noticed that you’ve lost weight.” Suddenly the topic changed and his eyes fixed on her, then looked at Dolores. Although Dolores had gone through major surgery, she had recovered well and her face looked rosy while Theresa looked sick.
She laughed, “I’m always thin …”
“Armand didn’t take good care of you, right?” he continued to say, “In my eyes, you’re the same as Lola. If you’re bullied, make sure you tell me and I’ll stick up for you, got it?”
“Yes,” She readily agreed as she knew that he really cared about her.
Oscar rarely came here, so Dolores and Matthew had to entertain him. Since the conditions in the hospital were limited, they went outside to have dinner.
Dolores didn’t go as she stayed in hospital and was looked after by Jessica.
They went as a group.
After dinner, they went home separately and Matthew arranged a hotel for Oscar.
