My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 877

After settling down in the hotel, Harley looked at Thea tenderly.

"Are you hungry? Let's go out and grab some food!"

Thea shook her head and sighed, "I'm not going out. I'm going to buy some groceries. Isn't there a place in this residential hotel where we can cook? The doctor said we need to provide sufficient nutrients for him, so..."

Harley furrowed his brow as he felt uncomfortable hearing this.

Thea shot another glance at Harley and said, "Harley, I..."

"It's okay, let's go!"

It was his choice. No matter what, he was not going to give up. Not here!

However, when he saw how occupied Thea was at the supermarket, he felt jealous.

After thinking about it for some time, he finally realized Thea had never cooked anything for him before. But now, she was going to cook something for Martin!

After keeping herself occupied for the entire day, Thea finally finished preparing some food.

She was about to carry it over to Martin, but Harley stopped her.

"He is not handicapped. I'll ask him to come over and eat!"

In fact, Thea was worried that Harley would be unhappy. Hence, she nodded at his suggestion. With that Harley went straight to Martin's room and kicked at the door heavily. He shouted, "Come out, it's time to eat!"

After a while, Martin came over with a bowl of instant noodles in his hand.

"I am famished!" After saying that, he put down the instant noodles before grabbing a spoon and shoving some food into his mouth.

"Wait, what is this? It's so terrible! Is this even edible? Why don't we go out to eat? There's a five-star hotel nearby. I'll take you to..."

"Shut up!" Harley said coldly. In fact, he had been holding in his anger for a long time. Thea had cooked Martin food he craved so much, but Martin ended up detesting it.

Yet, she had no choice but to make him food.

Such feelings of misery and frustration were not something that anyone could bear with!

Martin shrank away from him in fear and grumbled, "Fine, I'll shut up. Why are you shouting at me?"

Harley frowned, got up and stormed out. Seeing that, Thea glared at Martin and warned him, "Shut your trap! Hurry up and eat. Then, go back to your room!" After that, she ran after Harley.

Harley was smoking on the balcony. He took a heavy puff of the cigarette and coughed.

Thea hurried over and handed him some water.

"Have some water! I can't be rest assured when there is no one to take care of Cutie Pie at home. Why don't you go back to keep him company?"

Harley furrowed his eyebrows and pouted, "And leave you here with him?"

Thea pursed her lips and said nothing. After a long time, she whispered softly.

"I know you're in a bad mood, but I'm not feeling good about it either. Harley, Cutie Pie is my son. I can't give up on him! I really can't!"

Harley was well aware of her family background.

He knew her parents abandoned her since she was young. That was why she cherished the people around her even more.

Feeling the warmth and affection from her words,

Harley reached out and hugged Thea.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I'm bad-tempered. I'll try my best to be a better person!"

Thea shook her head and comforted him, "Don't say that. It's all my fault..." "Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Leave Martin to me. I'll take care of him!" Thea was stupefied. She asked in astonishment, "You? Take care of him?" Harley smirked playfully and asked, "What's wrong? You don't trust me?" Thea shook her head, "No. Okay, I'll leave him to you."

After all, she trusted Harley to not do anything out of line for Cutie Pie's sake!

As they were talking, the phone rang. Thea took out her phone and took a look before gasping, "It's a video call from Eudora!"

After Thea answered it, Eudora, who was in the hospital, appeared on the phone's screen. She smiled, "I know you must have been missing Cutie Pie, so I'm letting you see him!"

On the screen, Cutie Pie's eyes were wide open, and he had a huge grin plastered on his face.

Thea was excited and bubbled, "Thank you, Eudora. How has Cutie Pie been doing for the past

few days?"

Eudora nodded and assured them, "Not bad. Don't worry, I'll help you to take care of Cutie Pie as long as I'm here. By the way, are you alright?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Harley and Thea appeared on her phone screen.

"We're alright!" replied Harley.

Eudora beamed at the sight of this and said, "Great! Take good care of Thea. Otherwise, I'll come after you!"

Harley nodded and laughed, "Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Harley reached out to hold Thea's hand and suggested to her, "Let's go!"

Thea was bewildered. She asked, "Where are we going?"

"To buy groceries. We agreed that I'll be taking care of Martin, didn't we? Let's go and buy groceries together! After that, you can leave everything to me!"

Although Thea's cooking didn't taste great, at least it was edible.

Therefore, Martin still chose to come for breakfast the next morning. There was soy milk and some food on the table.

Martin sat down, picked up his spoon and began to eat. The next second, his facial expression changed and he spat out the food.

"What's this? Why does it taste so bad?"

Then, he picked up the soy milk and took a sip. When he was about to spit it out again, Harley reached out to stop him.

"Try spitting it out. You wouldn't know what came at you!"

"What the h*ll do you want? I won't eat anymore, okay?" Martin froze on the spot and asked.

"No! This is a nutritious meal that I have prepared exclusively for you. It's not only for today, but for the rest of the time you're staying with us. You need to get well quicker to fulfil our agreement, and you can only do so by ingesting enough nutrients. Only then can you leave!"

Martin wanted to resist, but when Harley waved his fist at him, he gave up immediately.

"I'll eat, okay? Don't just sit there and watch! Let's eat together!"

Harley shook his head and rejected him, "No, thank you. This is yours. We'll eat at the restaurant downstairs."

Hearing that, Martin was exasperated. He questioned Harley, "Are you sure that I'll be fine with you taking care of me this way?"

"Why not? I've consulted a nutritionist especially for this! The nutritional diet has less sodium and oil. It can help to reduce the burden on your kidneys! Eat slowly! Remember, you must finish it!" With that, Harley turned around and left.

He let out a sigh after Martin was out of his sight. Originally, he thought teaching Martin a lesson would help soothe his feeling of dejection, but it was not working!

Harley curled his lips and continued marching forward.

For the next few days, Harley treated Martin the same way. Martin was furious but did not dare to say anything. He ate everything Harley gave him.

On the bright side, his complexion was improving.

A week later, when Harley was about to go downstairs in the morning, he received a call from the hospital.

"The patient is experiencing another spasm."

Harley was shocked and asked, "How is the child?"

"We managed to save him, but we need to remind you again, you must make a decision as soon as possible! The child might not be able to hold on much longer!"

Thea was anxious and grabbed over the phone in a hurry.

"I'm sorry. Give us a few more days, and we'll give you an answer soon!"

After hanging up the phone, Thea ran back to the room hastily and dragged Martin, who was watching television, up from the couch.

"Come with me to the hospital right now!"
