The Second Love
The old doctor paused while writing and then looked up at us with a smile, nodding. "Well, it's true. Madam, please remember to continue taking your medicine on time and relax." I have to admit that professionals are more persuasive than I am. "Okay, thank you, doctor. I will definitely follow your advice." I watched happily from the side, feeling a sense of relief as if I had taken a tranquilizer. This is the first time I have heard Dominic Hartnell's mother make such a promise. I believe she will follow the doctor's advice and receive proper treatment in the future. After thanking the old doctor again, we left the consultation room with the prescription. Dominic Hartnell's mother went to get the medicine herself.But this time, she directly took the medicine package back without asking the staff here to help prepare it like last time. I asked her, and she said she wanted to prepare it herself. Let her prepare it herself then. In fact, although it is very convenient now, after preparing the medicine, it can be divided into small packages, which is simple and easy. But deep down, I still feel that freshly prepared medicine is better. After coming out of the clinic this time, I feel completely different from last time. Last time, I didn't know the effect and whether it would be useful. I was full of anxiety. But now, everything is fine and the future seems full of hope. Dominic Hartnell's mother is also in a good state, always smiling lightly, looking particularly energetic."Mom, let's go over there and take a walk. The weather is so nice today, let's not waste it." I said cheerfully, feeling very happy. Dominic Hartnell's mother gave me face and readily agreed, even taking the initiative to hold my arm. I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling indescribably happy. The two of us walked hand in hand to the shopping mall over there. I originally planned to go directly to the women's clothing section. It seems that I haven't bought anything for Dominic Hartnell's mother yet, so I thought I could buy her a dress today. But instead of going to the women's section, she pulled me directly to the men's section. Looking at the elevator entrance, I looked around and asked uncertainly, "Mom, do you want to buy clothes for Dominic?" Dominic Hartnell's mother was really in a good mood and nodded with a smile, "Yes, I haven't bought him clothes for a long time. Let's take a look first." "You can help choose too. You know him better than I do now." I would definitely be willing to buy clothes for Dominic Hartnell, I nodded and agreed with a smile. Last time when Dominic Hartnell's mother bought things for the two little ones in my belly, she was the type who didn't look at the price, as long as it looked good, she would buy it all. Although she still had the same extravagance this time, she seemed to be more careful and patient. There were so many suits, ties, and shirts, and she would always take a long time to look at them and ask for my opinion before finally putting together the most suitable outfit to buy. That's how we ended up buying four sets of suits for Dominic Hartnell without even realizing it. Not to mention the miscellaneous accessories for the outfits. I could tell that Dominic Hartnell's mother was still very interested and enjoying herself while shopping. But I was a bit tired and my feet were hurting from walking. Luckily, I knew there was a cafe upstairs where we could rest for a while, so I suggested going up there first. She didn't refuse and agreed happily. I had been to this shop before, and both the coffee and desserts tasted great, especially the chocolate frappuccino, it was superb. But I couldn't eat those now, so I recommended it to Dominic Hartnell's mother, and she actually wanted it. I ordered a fruit yogurt cup for myself, plus two slices of cheesecake. Sitting face to face with Dominic Hartnell's mother, eating desserts, and occasionally chatting, I felt that at this moment, everything was magical.Thinking about the last time we sat together like this and had coffee, what was the outcome? We parted ways, not to mention the times she slapped me. But now, Dominic Hartnell and I are married, and our love child is about to be born, and his mother and I can still sit together so harmoniously. It was all destined, because of fate. "Liliana Zanetti." Dominic Hartnell's mother suddenly called me, bringing my thoughts back. "Yes, Mom, what is it?" She stared at me intently and said, word by word, "I'm glad that I didn't forcefully separate you and Donglai in the end." "You're good, Donglai is lucky to have you, and I'm relieved." I was taken aback, and tears fell unexpectedly.I hastily wiped away the tears on my face and said, somewhat at a loss, "Mom, you... I, I..." Dominic Hartnell's mother chuckled and handed me a tissue, "You silly child, why are you crying? It's a good thing Donglai isn't here, otherwise he would think I bullied you." I was even scared by myself, how foolish, why did I cry just like that, it's so embarrassing. "No, I... I didn't cry on purpose, it's just..." I really can't explain what it is, but right now I feel really silly. Dominic Hartnell's mother maintained a warm smile on her face and waved her hand, saying, "It's alright, women's emotions tend to be more volatile when they're pregnant, it's normal." I quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, that's exactly it. I find myself coming up with all sorts of ideas now, and I feel so confused." Fortunately, this explanation makes sense."It's okay, eat quickly. After we finish, we'll take another stroll and then go back. You must be tired too." "Oh, remember to call Donglai and ask him to come pick us up." I had actually finished eating as well, so we paid the bill and left the dessert shop. This time, we went straight to the women's clothing section. Although I can't quite describe my current mood, I am definitely happy, and maybe a little excited. What Dominic Hartnell's mother said just now was undoubtedly a kind of approval towards me, a very direct one. It's hard not to feel happy about that. Although our relationship has always been harmonious, I always felt like something was missing. But now, I feel complete. I linked arms with Dominic Hartnell's mother and affectionately recommended, "Mom, why don't you try on this dress? It will definitely look good on you." It was a modified qipao in a crimson color, with a beautiful design and delicate embroidery. It also had a light beige shawl draped over it. Dominic Hartnell's mother frowned and hesitated, rejecting, "This color is a bit too bright... it doesn't suit me." I playfully urged, "It looks great, Mom, you should give it a try. Trust me." Our excitement caught the salesperson's attention, and they approached us with a smile, saying, "Madam, your daughter has excellent taste. This qipao suits you perfectly." "Although the color may appear a bit vibrant, your fair complexion will make it look stunning on you. Please give it a try." The salesperson's words made Dominic Hartnell's mother and me exchange glances. Mother and daughter? Do we really resemble each other that much now?
