Chapter 1036: 287: Test, the surgery was very successful! _5
Her best friend, who had just given birth to a very beautiful daughter, showed off her baby on social media every day. This made Elena Williams extremely envious and stirred her desire to have a second child.
Mrs. Thompson had just had surgery, and needed to rest. As they were leaving the ward, Elena turned to Evan Thompson, "What do you think of Viola?"
"She's great!" Evan replied directly and concisely.
"What I meant is, how about we have a daughter too? I mean look at Viola, such a beautiful and intelligent girl, surely our daughter would turn out just like her!" Elena's eyes sparkled, as if she could already see her precious little girl waving at her.
Evan was speechless, and put his hand on Elena's forehead to check her temperature, "You're not running a fever, are you?"
"You're the one who's probably running a fever!" Elena quickly slapped his hand away.
Evan replied, "Are you making sense anymore if you're not feverish?"
"Don't you want to have an adorable girl like Viola? A wonderful girl who is exactly like her!"
Evan nodded, "I do want to, but you have to be realistic! How old are you now? Do you have the energy to raise another child?"
"Why not?" Elena retorted impatiently, "My friend Hui is already forty-eight and she just gave birth. I'm just forty-three!"
This time, Evan didn't rush to rebut. He ran his fingers through his hair, "Let me think about it."
Hearing this, Elena knew there was still a chance.
It seemed that Evan also wanted another daughter.
"Alright, you think about it."
...
In the evening, Terrence Lentz came to the hospital to visit Mrs. Thompson, bringing flowers with him.
Viola was taking care of Mrs. Thompson at the hospital.
He knocked on the door with one hand while holding flowers in the other.
His knock was gentle.
Knock Knock Knock.
With his towering height of 1.93 meters, he almost grazed the door frame. He was dressed in a black trench coat and held a bouquet of lilies, attracting the gaze of many passersby.
A girl was so infatuated with him that she literally ran into a pillar.
Bam!
The girl finally snapped out of her trance, holding her head as she ran away.
How embarrassing!
Really embarrassing.
On hearing the knock, Viola went over to open the door.
"Lentz."
"How's grandma doing?" Terrence asked, handing the flowers to her.
Viola took the flowers, "She's quite stable, but she hasn't woken up yet."
Terrence nodded slightly, "I'll stay here with you tonight."
"Are you done with work?" Viola asked.
Terrence nodded lightly, "Yeah."
Viola started to arrange the flowers in a vase.
Terrence came over to help her.
Viola handed him the vase, "Can you fetch some water? Half a bottle will suffice."
"Sure."
Viola began trimming the flowers.
Despite her best efforts, she had no artistic talent, and was unsatisfied with her flower arrangement. After a moment, Viola pulled out her phone, and searched for flower arrangement tutorials online.
Unfortunately, despite following the tutorial closely, her finished product was awful to look at.
Viola sighed.
Terrence had been quietly watching her from behind and now chuckled lightly, "Let me try."
"You know how to arrange flowers?" Viola looked back at him, skepticism in her eyes.
"A little." Terrence said in a low voice, taking the flowers from her.
Viola simply sat on the couch and watched him.
From her vantage point, she could just see his profile.
This was the first time since they officially started dating that Viola had taken such a close, hard look at him.
His deep phoenix eyes seemed bottomless, threatening yet bewitching.
His curled lashes cast a slight shadow on his tall, straight nose.
Lips thin and chiseled.
His lips were extraordinarily beautiful.
His pale skin, under the light, seemed even more fair.
With flowers in hand, the scene was so breathtaking it nearly took away her breath.
It was as if the flowers came to life in his hands. He trimmed them and placed them in the vase, transforming them into an elegant and pleasing arrangement.
"How is it?" Terrence turned his head to look at Viola.
Viola nodded slightly, giving him a thumbs up, "Impressive! I didn't expect you to have this talent."

Terrence's thin lips curved into a smile, "There's a lot you don't know yet."
As for his other talents, Viola would have to discover them slowly.
Viola just kept watching him, "The New Year is just around the corner, are you not going home this year?"
"I will, but there's no rush."
His wife was in Capital City, what was he hurrying back for?
Mainly because that home, in Terrence's view, was rather dull.
Terrence took out his laptop from his briefcase, "Viola, you should get some sleep. I'll work and watch over grandma."
