Chapter 405: Our Baby Will Be Pretty
Talia changed to warmer clothes as she was informed Rebecca is currently in her hometown. Once her baby was stable enough to travel, she had gone to her hometown to avoid the paparazzi. Talia felt bad, since by association to her, Rebecca and her newborn baby are getting exposed to paparazzi.
"Did you see the recent picture of Baby Charlotte Ella-Grace Feinstein? She’s grown so cute. She put on some weight and her cheeks are so chubby. I can’t wait to hold her. I bet she’d feel as soft and fluffy as cotton."
Talia chose the first name herself and got the middle name from searching the family records of both Rebecca and Joe. Many women in their families were named Grace and names related to Ella. So she chose that name as the middle name.
Rebecca cried when Talia told her the name. She especially loved the name Charlotte since she loved elegant name for her child. ’I knew you’d choose the perfect name for my baby. You’re so perfect you never disappoint, Tallie’, she was all praises. Joe had a very pleased smile. Talia heard he calls the baby ’Charlie’ although Talia thought she’d be called ’Lottie’.
Talia, who was excited that she became a Godmother, showed the baby’s picture to Arthur the moment Rebecca sent her the picture after birth. Arthur said nothing except the name was good. Talia tried to probe about the baby at times but she couldn’t get any reaction from him.
Did he suddenly develop dislike for babies? It can’t happen! I want a lot of babies.
Talia tried to get him to speak as they were close to arrival at an airstrip near Rebecca’s hometown. She wanted to know the reason for his silence regarding the little baby.
"Iris... Don’t worry. We are both handsome and our baby will definitely be very pretty and have a round head." He said after she nagged him to speak for five minutes.
"Okay... that’s a given." Talia was clueless as to what made him think about the shape of the head of their future babies.
"It’s a shame though... both Joe and that woman can be considered good-looking albeit not as handsome as us. Still it’s a shame their baby was... I mean it is a baby and it is wrong to comment about its appearance, but the puffy eyes, skin infected with some- it was peeling, and the head... why was it elongated – a bit coniferous? I mean no offense but your friend’s baby looked like it was an alien."
Arthur spoke with much difficulty. It was very clear he didn’t want to speak about it and he is saying this just because he was talking to Talia and otherwise he’d die keeping these thoughts as a secret.
