Chapter 20: Children (2)
"No, I'm fine." His mother took Donna's hand to have a seat on the sofa.
She looked at Donna again and said with a smile, "Paul has a bad temper.Did he bully you?"
Donna blushed and shook her head, "No.’ Except for being too demanding in a certain aspect, he treated her very well.
"Ms.Martin, the two of them have a good relationship."
Linda brought out the fruit and said with a smile, "Since she came here, she personally cooks breakfast for Mr.Martin every morning.’
His mother looked at Donna in surprise.
Not many girls were willing to cook by themselves.
The most important thing was that Paul, who was usually picky, would like to eat Donna's meals every day, which was out of her expectation.
It seemed that the relationship between the two was really good.
"You took good care of Paul,’ his mother said heartily.
Then, she slowly shifted her gaze from Donna's face to her lower abdomen, and said with a smile, "You have been married for more than a year, and it's time to consider having children.’
Children? Hearing this, Donna was startled and almost subconsciously shook off Paul's mother's hand.
Her marriage with Paul was similar to an agreement, so this would come to an end one day.If she had a baby, her future would be messed up.
Moreover, after she and Paul broke up, if the child belonged to him, she would not be willing.
If it belonged to her, then the child could not grow up in a wealthy background.
Thinking of that, she couldn't couldn't help feeling confused.
"Donnie?"
Seeing Donna lowered her head and said nothing, Ms.Martin thought she scared her. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
So, she said in a soft and relaxed tone, "Don't be stressed.I like both boys and girls."
Donna hesitated to respond with "Em", and then decided to talk to Paul about this matter in the evening.
They could not have children.
"I will feel assured if you take it seriously.’ Seeing Donna's promise, Ms.Martin laughed happily.
"I understand that young people now want to have a place to yourselves, but you must have children after all."
Donna blushed and raised her head to smile shyly at his mother, "You have just returned to Jonesboro, so do you want to go shopping? I'll go with you, okay?"
"No, you don't have to do that.’ His mother smiled and shook her head.
"I have a lot of friends here.I can go with them.You don't have to worry about me."
"But..."
Donna wanted to say something.
She had promised Paul to take care of his mother.
"Let me accompany you.’ His mother took a sip of coffee and smiled, "Don't be nervous.Our family doesn't have so many rules.I don't want to cause trouble for you, lest you feel dull and bored when you stay with me.’ Donna felt warm in her heart.
It was so lucky for her to have such a considerate mother-in-law.
This might be only temporary, but she still felt grateful.
In the evening, Donna made dinner for Paul's mother herself.
The three were very happy and the atmosphere at home was very harmonious.
Before Paul's mother went upstairs to rest, she looked at Donna and Paul and said meaningfully, "Don't forget what I said.’ Donna blushed.
Not long after she left, Donna went back to the room, thinking about a lot of messy things.
"What did my mother say?"
Paul pushed the door in and saw Donna's face still red, making him even more puzzled.
Donna lowered her head to pretend to read, and whispered, "It's nothing."
His mother clearly said she didn't want to mention that, but she just reminded her in front of Paul.
"Are you really not going to tell me?"
Paul glanced at Donna and threatened without hesitation, "Then I will ask my mother.’
With that, he got up and walked towards the door.
Donna threw the book away in fright, ran over to grab Paul's arm, and whispered, "Okay.I'll tell you."
Paul turned around, grabbed Donna's arm and held her between his chest and the wall.
He raised her chin with a finger, "Tell me.’
Donna lowered her head and blushed, as if her face was full of blood.
Her long curly eyelashes, like spring willow buds, attached to her beautiful face.
"She said..."
Donna's face grew redder, and she finally told Paul, "She said she wanted to have a grandson.’’
