I Only Want You novel Chapter 1018

"I want to take care of Dax myself." Elizabeth continued, "Maybe I don't have much experience now, but mom and Auntie Chang can teach me, right?"

"I discussed with James. I may go to school after several months. At that time, I may be a little busy. Although I don't have many classes at school, I have to work in Liang Company. In the future, I have to go to work, so I can't stay with him every day like this."

"So... I want to take care of him myself during this period of time."

Hearing this, James took Elizabeth's hand and smiled, but he was not in a hurry to speak. He just looked at John and Lydia.

John and Lydia looked at each other, and then Lydia said, "Elizabeth, I believe that you can take good care of Dax, but your father and I don't want you to be too tired. Although Dax is obedient, you'll have to feed him and change his diapers at night."

"I know." Elizabeth nodded, "Mom, I have thought about these problems, but I think I should be able to do it."

In the past, she had no one to rely on. She

was lonely and had many classes everyday, but she had made it through, hadn't she?

Although it might be harder to take care of a child than to study, Dax was her own child. At most, she would be tireder, but she would feel warm in heart, wouldn't she?

"If I can't look after Dax alone..." Elizabeth thought for a moment, "Let's talk about it when the time comes."

"Right." James chimed with her, "What she said makes sense, and she just wants to stay with Dax more often, doesn't she? Besides, even if she can't look after Dax alone, I'll help her, right?"

Looking at James's sincere expression, Lydia didn't feel at ease. Instead, she frowned, "You?" Was he kidding?

"Of course!" James nodded with certainty, "Me!"

Lydia snorted, "Can you do it?"

"Why can't I?" James was a little dissatisfied.

"Look at you! If no one takes care of you, you won't even get something to eat. What's more, do you know how to wash clothes? You've never washed your clothes by yourself, right? Moreover, Dax is a baby, and you can't feed him casually. Now he is small and just drinks milk. When he grows up a little, he should eat nutritious food made at home. Can you cook for him?"

Before James could reply to her, Lydia shook her head with disdain, "Think about what you did in the kitchen before! Please!"

James sighed gloomily, "Hey! Mom, are you looking down on me?"

Lydia nodded sincerely and said, "You're right."

Elizabeth pulled James's arm and motioned to him to stop talking, but James patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "Let's put it this way, mom."

He coughed softly to ease his depression, "I admit that I don't know how to wash clothes and cook. But, my good intention is real, right? Besides, you don't know how to wash clothes and cook, either, do you?"

As soon as he said this, John said blandly, "She doesn't need to do these things."

He wished that he could give the best things in the world to Dax. He wanted to give Dax the good things that others had. As for those others didn't have, he wanted to give them to Dax in the first place. Why couldn't he learn to cook for his son? Was it very difficult?

"Learn?" Lydia curled her lips. "Dax is small now. Although Elizabeth is at home, it's good to have one more person to take care of him. When she goes to school or work, you still have to hire someone to look after Dax at that time. You saw the news of the accidents of the babies. Can you rest assured to leave Dax alone at home?"

"So, you must live with us. Your father and I naturally want you to live here. What I mean is that even if you want to learn how to cook, you'll learn here. I don't want you to ruin my kitchen. Besides, if you delay Dax's meal because of your stupidity, do you think I'll let you go?"

After hearing Lydia's words, James only felt... he had been dealt a severe blow.

It was said that grandparents loved their grandchildren more, but Lydia couldn't look down on him like this just because of Dax, right? Was he her biological son?

Elizabeth stared at James's depressed face. Although she felt that Lydia worried too soon, she said, "Mom, Dax won't eat the homemade food until he is six months old. Let's not argue about this first, okay?"

Lydia sighed, "I'm thinking for Dax, aren't I?"

"I know." Elizabeth nodded, "Mom, I know you are kindhearted. However, even if he doesn't know how to cook, Auntie Chang is here, right? Moreover, if there's really no other way, we can hire a nanny. These problems won't exist."

Seeing that Elizabeth spoke for him, James immediately straightened his back like Lydia did when John helped her. He smiled haughtily, "That's right! Mom, you worry too much!"

"Me?"
