Fortunately, Morgan was her future son-in-law. Lisa was even hoping that Morgan's studious genes would somehow improve her own daughter's unruly tendencies.Even though Lucas didn’t think reading fairy tales as part of prenatal education was very effective—especially considering the negative example of Renee—he still read a few stories every day to their unborn child. He couldn’t help but imagine the scene of telling bedtime stories while holding a soft baby in his arms. Ever since Coco had gotten pregnant, he had envisioned it many times.Just then, Coco’s expression suddenly changed as she let out a sharp cry.“What’s wrong?” Lucas tensed up. “Are you hurting? Is it the leg cramps again?” As he spoke, he reached out to lift the blanket covering her legs.Coco replied with a pale face, “No... it’s not the cramps... I think... my water just broke.”Hearing this, Lucas quickly instructed, “Lie down, stay still.” He then placed a pillow under her to prevent more amniotic fluid fro
However, based on the situation now, a divorce seemed unlikely. It was clear that Prince Lucas was utterly in love with his wife!Soon, they arrived at the hospital, and Coco was taken into the delivery room where the doctors began to assess her condition.Lucas waited anxiously outside the room. It wasn’t long before Jared and Carmen arrived. Upon seeing their son, they immediately asked, "How’s Coco?""She’s still being examined. Her water broke early," Lucas replied.“Is she going to give birth soon?” Carmen asked.“Probably.”“Fortunately, she’s already 39 weeks along, so there shouldn’t be any risks for the baby,” Carmen reassured him.After receiving an oxytocin injection, Coco was quickly moved to the delivery room. Lucas changed into sterile clothing and accompanied her inside.At that moment, all Coco could feel was pain! She heard that childbirth was incredibly painful. Although she had mentally prepared herself countless times, experiencing it firsthand made her real
Coco tiredly opened her eyes and gazed at the tiny, rosy face so close to hers. Her baby was so adorable. A strange and wonderful feeling filled her heart. A little life had come into the world carrying hers and Lucas’s bloodline.With the nurse's help, Coco gently kissed her daughter's cheek. Then, the nurse showed the baby to Lucas. But after a quick glance at his daughter, he was focused on Coco’s condition again.The nurse carried the baby out to show the waiting family members before taking her for a cleaning. Coco needed to stay in the delivery room for another two hours for post-delivery observation to ensure everything was fine before she could leave.Coco felt like her body was torn apart while Lucas stayed by her side, gently tidying her disheveled hair. "I’m sorry for putting you through so much pain," he said softly.Seeing Coco endure such intense pain to bring their child into the world made him realize how lightly he had taken childbirth before. He had assumed th
"So, we went through the pain together to bring our child into the world," she said.He was slightly taken aback, finding her words a bit odd, but... "Yeah,” he replied.The couple exchanged smiles, knowing that their happiness would only grow with their daughter now.-Jared and Carmen were extremely excited. The two of them couldn't stop staring at the tiny baby in the crib. After all, Lucas had married late, and they had been worried for a long time that he might not get married at all.Finally, they had a grandchild after what seemed like an endless wait. They could label themselves as proud grandparents now.In the past, they could only feel envious when they saw their friends celebrating the arrival of their grandchildren. Though they would outwardly claim that they didn’t mind not having grandchildren, deep down, they did care. There was even a time when Carmen started avoiding gatherings with her friends because of it.Now that the little one was here, they couldn’t
Leia used her savings to buy a golden lucky charm for the baby. Although the gift wasn't worth much in monetary terms, Coco cherished it deeply, recognizing the love and thought behind it.Leia also gave Coco a monetary congratulatory gift.“Thank you very much, Leia!” "You’re welcome. I’m glad that you’ve safely delivered the baby. I’m going to the church later to light some candles," Leia replied.Carmen immediately chimed in, "Yeah, we should all go to the church and give our offerings later.” Jared agreed, "Exactly! We’re blessed that Coco and the baby are safe."Soon after, almost everyone they knew including relatives and friends came to the hospital to congratulate Lucas and Coco.Coco’s ward was bustling with activity, but luckily, the VIP ward was spacious and divided into two areas. There was a private space for Coco to rest as well as a space for visitors. So, it wasn’t too overwhelming for Coco.However, since the baby needed to be fed every two to three hours, Co
"I didn’t, but my mom said I was like that when I was born," Lucas replied.Hearing that, Coco felt a bit more at ease. "I wonder who she will look like."Since the baby was only a few days old and hadn’t opened her eyes yet, it was hard to tell whom she resembled more. However, the baby did have a lot of hair, and her skin was rosy. According to Leia, the rosier it was, the fairer the baby would become over time."I hope she looks like you," Lucas said. Although it didn’t really matter who their daughter took after, he secretly wished she would look more like Coco. The thought of having a little Coco running around made him excited.Coco couldn’t help but smile at the thought. They both wanted the baby to resemble the other."Your good genes shouldn’t go to waste like that. I’d love to have a baby who looks like you. The photos of you as a child are just too adorable," Coco said, feeling envious of Carmen. She wouldn’t be able to resist constantly hugging and kissing such a cute
"Did you forget the documents we signed when we got married? There’s no such thing as pre-marital assets between us. Half of everything I own, before or after marriage, is yours," Lucas said with a smile.Coco was stunned. She remembered he did have her sign a bunch of papers, but he didn’t explain, and she didn’t ask. She thought it was just part of the wedding process. She had no idea that Lucas was giving her half of his wealth."So, this 300 million isn’t even close to your total net worth now. Don't worry too much about it. It’s a genuine gift from Mom and Dad.”"Well... okay." Coco still hadn’t fully accepted the fact that she was now incredibly wealthy. It felt like a dream.After chatting with Lucas for a bit, Coco yawned."Are you sleepy already?" Lucas asked."Yeah." Coco nodded."Then, you should rest. Once the baby wakes up, you won’t be able to sleep again.”"And what about you?" she asked, feeling concerned."I'm not sleepy yet. Go ahead and sleep. Your body is
"You'd better give it a rest," Serenity said, laughing. "Terry was practically scared to death after your first child."Lisa sighed with regret. "I think Terry just overthinks everything and worries too much. But since he's genuinely frightened, I can’t push for another one. Besides, with the way things are at our house now, it feels like we already have two kids. Our future son-in-law visits so often, it’s like having another child around."She mentioned how Morgan frequently stayed over, even having his own room in their house, and his personal belongings seemed to be multiplying there. Serenity and Coco couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this. Coco was quite curious about Morgan, but she hadn’t had the chance to meet him yet."When will I get to meet your other 'child'?" Coco asked."Once you're done with your recovery, I’ll bring both kids to visit you," Lisa said. "Actually, I could’ve brought them along today, but Serenity thought they might be too noisy, so I left them a
