BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1160 Died Of A Difficult Labor
"But, that\'s impossible!"
"And yet it happened! So if you still have even an ounce of conscience left, go visit her tomb. I don\'t even know where she was buried. You can go to the Su family and ask them yourself; they were the ones who took care of her funeral." Not long after Ethan was born, Erica had left with the baby.
She was too young to manage a funeral. Unaware of what to do, she had merely sent people to inform the Su family.
"There must be some misunderstanding. She can\'t be dead!" Tam was still in denial.
"There is no misunderstanding. She is dead! You can go to the Su family\'s house and ask. Whatever you do, don\'t bother me anymore. I don\'t want to see you ever again, you hear me? Never!" Erica hated Tam so much, but he had still been pestering her with questions. Finally her patience had run out after a short while.
Tam still wanted to ask something, but the disgust in her eyes made him shut his mouth at last. He hesitantly kissed Ethan\'s soft little hand and then walked away dejectedly.
In retrospect, the man had looked rather calm and composed the whole time he had been talking to her, save for a little moment of excitement upon seeing Ethan for the first time.
It wasn\'t so impossible when one thought about it for a young girl to fall in love with him. He was rich and handsome, gentle and considerate, and seemed wise. But he was still a married man. It was morally wrong for Erica\'s friend, or anyone for that matter, to have an affair with this man.
The door was partially soundproof, which meant that although Matthew could hear someone speaking outside the inner chamber, he couldn\'t make out exactly what they were talking about.
However, he didn\'t come out of the inner chamber until the conversation outside had subsided completely.
As expected, the man had left. Only Erica was standing there, with the baby in her arms, as if lost in some thought.
Matthew strode towards her and took the baby from her. "Let\'s go," he said.
"Okay!" The duo left together.
Outside, Tam was still sitting in his car and waiting for Erica to come out. But when he saw Matt
is study and saw Erica and the baby lying on the bed in a crooked manner.
He came towards the side of the bed and saw that the baby had woken up. Ethan was lying on the bed, looking around with his eyes wide open. The thin quilt on his body had been kicked far away.
When he saw Matthew, he began to kick his legs excitedly and smiled at him.
Matthew cast a glance at Erica, who was sound asleep, and thought, \'If the baby had run away, I daresay she wouldn\'t even feel it.\'
He helplessly lifted Ethan up and put him in the middle of the bed. Then he lay down beside him and covered him with the quilt. That way, the baby boy was sandwiched between the two and could not run away.
As Matthew lay down, Ethan turned over and started babbling at him.
Matthew was experienced in taking care of kids since he had witnessed the birth and growth of Gwyn, Godwin and Godfrey. He was quite familiar with kids and knew how to engage them.
He put his big hand in front of Ethan, on which there was a bite mark.
The boy reached out a dainty little hand to grab Matthew\'s big hand, but only managed to grab the man\'s ring finger.
After playing with him silently for a while, the little boy finally began to get tired and drowsy and soon nodded off into a deep slumber.
Matthew turned the boy over and covered him properly once again to make sure the boy was comfortable.
The next day, Erica received a phone call from Tam early in the morning. "Erica, thank you for taking so good care of my son. I thought about it last night for the whole time and have decided to take Ethan to my home and take care of him by myself. I know it\'s unfair to you, but I hope you understand my feelings as a father."
