"Then what do you want to do?"
"Just do what I want. You don't have to worry about me. As I said before, I will deal with my own affairs. You and Ben should not get involved in it."
"What about your mother? Have you got any news about her?"
"I heard something about her a few days ago, but now I can't keep in touch with her again. I'm so confused."
Suddenly, James and Isaac heard Richard's voice, and both turned around. Richard spread his arms and held their shoulders, "Jimmy, I'm here! I'm so fast, right?..."
James laughed, "Hey, I thought you were kidding just now."
"No! You have become a father. How could I not come? Isaac, am I right?"
Isaac nodded, "Yep."
James said, "But you eavesdropped on us behind us."
"I just wanted to test your counterdetection ability, didn't I?"
"Isaac and I are not thieves, and we don't do anything illegal, so there is no need for us to do that. Thank you."
"Whatever." Richard shrugged his shoulders, "By the way, where are Elizabeth and the child now? I want to see my nephew."
Richard was here, so Isaac, who was about to leave, had to follow them back to Elizabeth's ward.
Richard was born to be eloquent. After seeing Elizabeth and Dax, he talked even more.
"Elizabeth, it's said that ladies who have given birth to children would become gaunt and weak, but you're different. You seem to be prettier and more energetic than before. Jimmy is so lucky. He has become a father. I'm really envious of him."
Before Elizabeth could speak, James said, "I asked you to have a girlfriend earlier, but you said that you wanted to be free for a few years. You can only blame yourself!"
"But I can't meet someone I like. The woman that my parents asked someone to introduce to me... Alas! Forget it. Let's not talk about that anymore."
James snorted, "When you leave the army, you'll have a girlfriend soon. This world is very wonderful. You can only see men all day in the army. At that time, you'll definitely meet a girl you like."
"It doesn't matter." Richard said unconcernedly, "It depends on the fate." Elizabeth was amused and thought that Richard was very funny.
"Elizabeth, don't laugh. You can introduce the girl you know to me for the sake that I'm Jimmy's friend. Jimmy knows me the best. I'm not a playboy!"
"Mm, okay."
However, as soon as Elizabeth answered, James discouraged Richard, "Don't even think about it!"
Elizabeth was stunned. Before she said something, Richard shouted discontentedly, "Jimmy, how can you treat me like this?"
James ignored him and bent down to look at Dax.
Richard curled his lips and also looked at Dax, "It is really amazing. I feel happy just by looking at him."
James didn't even raise his head, "If you like him, you'd better have your own child quickly." "I don't even have a wife. How should I have a child? Can I get a child all of a sudden? If that's the case, I'll be so glad."
"Keep your voice down. Don't disturb my son's sleep."
Richard glanced at James helplessly and then said to Elizabeth, "Let me tell you. Today you gave birth to the baby and Jimmy is so delighted. He almost wants to let the whole world know that he has become a father."
James frowned, "Richard, can't you talk less?"
Richard retorted, "People use their mouths to speak, drink and eat. Why should I talk less?"
