One night Two babies by Liz Pinelis

Aimee handed her chopsticks to her, "Look, these are all the food you love to eat, they are all made by Mr. Murphy who went to the kitchen especially to have them made, and he was still watching over them." "Watching over them?" Violet raised her eyebrows.

Aimee nodded, "Yeah, Mr. Murphy stayed in the kitchen for at least half an hour before coming out, so Mr. Murphy always really cares about you, Violet."

"I know he cares about me." Violet lowered her eyes.

Aimee looked at her, "Then you still argued with him and threw him out of the room, though, Mr. Murphy ......"

"Aimee, do you still remember when I gave birth to Jimmy?" Violet put down her chopsticks and suddenly interrupted her.

Aimee nodded, "Yeah, at that time you were only six months pregnant with Jimmy, we were still in the international competition, and it was all about to be the final, but at that time, Mr. Murphy had an accident, lost in the fire, you learned of it, under great stimulation, so Jimmy went into premature labor, seriously, that was the first time I saw a woman give birth, and the first time I saw that It was a premature birth, and at that time, seeing your face white and bleeding straight down there, I was scared, and I even had a shadow, afraid of having a baby."

"Yeah, you remember it all." The corner of Violet's mouth tugged gently, revealing a bitter smile.

Aimee was very confused, "Violet, why are you suddenly talking about this?"

"I just want to tell you why I want to fight with Stanley, why I am not willing to make compromise." Violet rubbed her brow, "That time, Stanley went to deal with Ivan alone and disappeared directly under Ivan's calculations, after I learned about it, I was so worried that I went into premature labor directly, during those few days lying in the hospital, I didn't even feel at ease to take care of my body, I didn't even go to see Jimmy, my heart was full of him, worried whether he was safe or not. I never felt that time was so long. I wanted to recover and go to him, but my body was not up to the task, so I could only hold on to my peace of mind for him, lie in the hospital for a few days, wait until I could get off the ground, and rush back to find him."

"I know, I saw it with Jessie and Linda." Aimee said as she held her hand.

At that time, how worried Violet was about Mr. Murphy and how painful he was because of his disappearance, they, her friends, all saw it in their eyes and advised her not to think too much, that Mr. Murphy would always be fine and let her get better soon.

Violet took a deep breath, "After that frightening experience, I swore I didn't want to go through it again, because no one knows if I'll be so lucky the second time, and what if the second time, he really is gone, what should I and the children do?"

"Violet, you mean ......"

"Stanley wants to fight with Ivan, with Ivan's character, since he has proposed a duel, one of them will die, even if not, they will suffer. Stanley is worried that this duel may involve me and the children, so he wants to send me and the children away, now he has already sent Calvin and Arya away, just wait for my competition to be over, he'll send Jimmy and I away again to meet up with the kids, but I don't really want to go." Violet frowned.

Aimee said, "Actually, Mr. Murphy is doing this for your own good."

"I know." Violet bit her lip, "He is worried about me, afraid that something will happen to me, but I don't go because I am also worried about him, I have already experienced once what happened when he faced Ivan alone, I don't want to go through it again, I want to stay with him, I want to face it together with him, not stay in one place, not knowing his situation, in that way, it is the same experience as when I gave birth to Jimmy, not knowing his safety." Violet said as she closed her eyes.

Aimee nodded, "That's true, I probably know where your knots lie, one wants to send his wife away in order to protect her and for her not to be harmed by the enemy's calculations, while one wants to be with her husband and wants to be informed of him at all times, so you are bent on staying, you are both doing it for each other, but neither of you can compromise, so you quarreled."

Violet nodded, "That's right."

Aimee sighed, "Other couples quarrel because of either with trivial matters or cheating, but you were for each other."

Violet pursed her red lips and did not say anything.

Aimee blinked, "I originally came up here and wanted to help Mr. Murphy persuade you, after all, Mr. Murphy sent you away for your own safety, but now that I've heard what you said, I know again that I can't persuade you, because it's not fair to you, but if I persuade Mr. Murphy, it is not fair to him, after all, you two are doing it for each other, not for yourselves, so we, the middlemen, don't even know how to help you make up."

Violet squeezed the corners of her mouth, "Stanley and I are now equivalent to walking into a dead end, if one of us does not take a step back, I guess the cold war will continue."

"I know." Aimee nodded, "So Violet, are you willing to take a step back? Listen to Mr. Murphy and leave here after the competition?"

Violet shook her head, "I said I couldn't go through a time where I didn't hear from him and didn't know if he was safe, so I'm not backing down, I'm just going to have to accept that he's backing down."

"Then there's no way out, you'll just have to continue the cold war, you're not willing to back down, then for Mr. Murphy's, it's even more impossible." Aimee shrugged her shoulders, indicating that there was nothing else she could do.

Violet lowered her eyes and didn't speak anymore.

Aimee shoved her chopsticks back into her hand, "Okay Violet, let's eat first, don't think about this first, anyway, now Mr. Murphy still has no intention of sending you away, so there will definitely be a turnaround then, you eat first, don't starve yourself."

Violet smiled, "Okay."

Aimee was right, Stanley had no intention of sending her away just yet, so there was still a way for her to get Stanley to change his mind and let her stay in the next few days.

In order to stay, and for the next final, she had to eat.

Violet started to eat and Aimee was slightly relieved to see her eating.

The fact that her best friend was having dinner meant that she was halfway through her mission to come up this time, and she could be in the face of Mr. Murphy's enquiries.

But the task of helping Mr. Murphy to persuade Violet, she reckoned it would not be completed.

"By the way, Aimee, where's Jimmy?" Violet took a few bites and suddenly thought of something and turned her head to the woman beside her who was obviously thinking about something and asked.

Aimee's eyes flickered slightly as she came back to her senses and replied with a smile, "Jimmy is still at Marry's. When I brought you the food, Jimmy had just drunk his milk and was probably asleep by now. If you want to see him, I'll ask Marry to bring him up."

Violet shook her head and said with a smile, "No, since he is asleep, I won't see him, in case he wakes up crying when I carry him up, that child is not much of a crier, but when he cries, it's hard to coax, I'll see him tomorrow."¶¶¶¶¶
