Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 203

When Ines came home, she found that her entire house had transformed in just a day. Every corner of the furniture was all wrapped up, and even the original carpet was replaced with a non-slip one.

"Ethan, you're pretty quick." Ines couldn't help but tell Ethan.

"That's all Lucas' doing, he's always super efficient." Ines noticed that dinner was already prepared on the table. A woman in her fifties emerged from the kitchen, smiling at them, "Sir, Ma'am, welcome home. I am Camela, a nanny hired by the Meyer family. I've prepared a meal for you, hoping it suits your taste."

Erica had already informed Ethan about this at noon. Camela had been in this line of work for over a decade, her cooking skill was top-notch, and she had high praises from many families.

Ethan nodded, "Thanks, Camela."

Camela chuckled, "I came in a rush today, didn't have time to buy groceries, so I made do with what was in the fridge. Have a taste, I got to get back to work."

With that, she returned to the kitchen, leaving the two of them alone.

Camela's culinary prowess truly shone. As Ines savored the flavors, she turned to Ethan, "Her food is exceptionally good." Ethan voiced his agreement with a nod. When Camela emerged, Ethan queried her about childcare. Her responses, adept and assured, impressed them thoroughly. The decision was made then – Camela would join their household. Until the baby's arrival, she would have weekends off. Post-birth, she'd work through the weekends but would receive a few discretionary days off each month.

Camela had no objections to this arrangement, and so it was settled. After dinner, Camela cleaned up the table and began tidying up the living room. Ines wasn't quite used to having a stranger in her home, so she retreated to the bedroom after a while. She remembered the photos she had brought back from the Galeana family not too long ago and couldn't help but look through them again. Looking at her own growth in the photos, she began to laugh.

Soon, she would be documenting a child's growth journey as well.

Ethan was infected by her laughter. He still had some work to finish, but seeing Ines, he also became languid, and sat down next to Ines to look at the photos with her.

Even though he had seen the photos before, Ethan looked at them very carefully. Ines leaned against him, this time she was particularly patient, not urging him to flip through them faster.

Ethan gently touched the people in the photos, unconsciously saying, "Our daughter will be as beautiful as you."

Ines really couldn't understand his obsession with a daughter. This was not the first time he had said this. Suddenly, she remembered what Naomi had told her yesterday and couldn't help but tell him, "Ethan, do you know what the kid told me yesterday?"
