Chapter 87
“Sarry, what happened? Why did you call me so many times?” I’ll ask immediately.
“Sir, I need you to come to Edinburgh now. Madam had a C-section this evening to give birth to a daughter for you. Cedric is going to have a bone marrow transplant operation. Madam is still in a coma and hasn’t woken up yet.”
“Isn’t Leanna due in two months? What happened? Why did she give birth to the baby in advance?” I asked as I went upstairs to change my clothes.
“”Cedric suddenly fainted in the afternoon and was sent to the hospital. The doctor said that his condition had worsened, so the transplant operation was needed as soon as possible. So she decided to give birth to the baby in advance…”
“Stay in the hospital and take care of my wife. I will come here as soon as possible.” After saying that, I hung up the phone, quickly changed my clothes and prepared to go out.
Before getting on the car, I immediately took out my phone and dialed another number.
When the line was connected, a low voice came from the other end of the line, “hello…”
“It’s me. Leanna is in the hospital now. I’m not with her. She only has a servant. Can you go to the hospital to look after her for me?”
After half a minute’s silence, he said, “send me the address.”
“Okay.” After hanging up the phone, I edited the address and sent it to her.
Then he started the car and drove straight to the airport.
On the way to the airport, I called Oarlan and asked him to arrange a private plane to fly directly to Edinburgh.
Leanna’s POV
When I woke up from the coma, most of the anesthetic on had been removed.
When I opened my eyes and looked at the clean and comfortable ward, I suddenly realized that I was in the hospital now.
I reached out to touch my belly, but accidentally touched the wound. It hurt so much that I frowned.
“Leanna, you wake up.” Suddenly, a familiar but obscure voice came to her ears.
I followed the source of the voice, slowly turned my head and looked to the side.
With tearful eyes, I saw a familiar face that I haven’t seen for a long time.
This face has appeared countless times in my dreams, but disappeared.
I didn’t expect to meet him again in my life.
This extremely unreal feeling intertwined with the pain on the wound, making me not know whether I am in reality or in a dream.
“Eugene? Is that you? Really you?” I couldn’t believe it. I reached out and tried to grab his hand to make sure that the man in front of me was alive.
He held my hand gently and said with a warm smile, “it’s me, Leanna. Don’t be afraid. I’m with you.”
“How… How could you…” I wanted to ask him a lot of questions, but when I was about to ask him, I found that I didn’t know where to start.
A sharp pain came from the cut of my stomach, and I suddenly realized that I had just given birth. “How is my baby? Is she all right?”
“Don’t worry. The baby is fine. It’s just a little weak because of the premature birth. Now the doctor has sent it to the incubator. Don’t worry.” Eugene comforted me gently.
“Where is Cedric? Is he having an operation now?” I asked again.
“The doctor has taken out the umbilical cord blood and is having an transplant operation now. You just wake up and are still very weak. Don’t worry about the children. Have a good rest first.””
Hearing this, tears welled up in my eyes. “Eugene, it’s so nice to see you…”
Not long after I woke up, I fell asleep again.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
When I woke up again, it was already a few hours later.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the servant sitting next to me and taking a nap. I moved my body and wanted to change a posture.
When the servant heard the noise, she immediately opened her eyes and said, “madam, you are awake.”
I moved my body a little to the left and looked around the room. “Where is the gentleman who was here before?”
Hearing this, the servant shook her head and asked, “what Sir?”
“It’s the gentleman who has been with me since I woke up.”
“You haven’t woken up yet. I’ve been staying here all the time. There’s no sir here.” The servant answered blankly.
When I heard this, my expression suddenly froze.
No?
How could it not be?
I saw Eugene. He even grabbed my hand. The temperature was high and fresh.
How could it not appear?
“Madam, are you dreaming?” The servant asked.
Dream? Was it a dream?
Was that real feeling, that familiar and gentle voice really a dream?
Seeing that I was absent-minded, the servant immediately took out her mobile phone, opened the photo album and handed it to me. ” this is a photo of your daughter. She is so cute. Please have a look.”
As soon as I heard her mention my daughter, I immediately looked at the screen of my mobile phone and saw the baby in the photo. Although it was less than a month, it was very nutritious, so it was not much worse than those full-term children.
But she looked very small. Her eyes hadn’t completely opened. A pair of small hands clenched into fists and raised on her little face.
“She is so cute.” Looking at my baby, I was so happy that tears ran out uncontrollably.
This is my second baby. She is like an angel. She saved Cedric’s life and brought new vitality to our whole family.
At this time, footsteps came from outside. I looked up at the door and saw more than a dozen airplanes. Edmund, who was worn out, appeared at the door of the ward.
After he entered the room, he strode to the bed and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw me waking up.
He reached out, held my face in his hands and gave me a gentle kiss between my eyebrows. “Leanna, thank you.”
“Edmund, look at our daughter. She is so cute, just like an angel.” I raised my phone and said with a smile.
He took a look at the photo on his phone, raised his hand and rubbed my nose. “It’s cute. It looks exactly like you.”
I smiled and said, “a daughter will be better if she is like her father. Then her life will be better.”
“He is my daughter. No matter who she is like, she will have a good life.” He turned to Sarry and asked, “how’s Cedric?”
“The operation went well, but we can’t go to see him now.” Sarry replied.
Hearing the news, Edmund breathed a sigh of relief.
“Leanna, I’m sorry. I wasn’t with you when you needed me the most.” He held my hand and blamed himself.
“Edmund, don’t say that. I know you want to be with us more than ever. I don’t blame you.” Leanna whispered.
“Leanna, I promise you that I won’t be so far away from you in the future. When Cedric’s condition stabilized, I will take you back to City Y. I have solved everything. You don’t need to worry about your parents, my mother, and even Eugene. You will be with me as my wife soon. We will reunite.” He held my hand and said seriously.
Looking at his serious face, I felt very happy. I nodded at him with a smile and said, “okay.”
After a pause, he said, “Leanna, I still owe you a grand wedding. My mother has been preparing for us in person. When we go back, she will hold it in the King’s mansion.”
Hearing the news, I nodded excitedly.
The sunshine outside the window is just right. I know our happy life has just begun.
Half a year later, the King’s Mansion
After a grand wedding ceremony in the church at noon, the dinner party in the evening was held in the mansion.
Ophelia, mother-in-law, had done her best to invite all the famous families in the city to attend the wedding. As a result, the gate of the mansion was crowded with people.
After receiving the news, some media came to squat, hoping to pry into more details of the banquet and the guests.
The dinner party was set up in the outdoor garden, which was warm and romantic. In the middle of the party, there was a huge multi-layer flower cake. Many children were walking around the cake, full of child interest.
The emcee of the dinner began to make a speech on the stage. Then Edmund and I appeared in front of everyone under the guidance of the spotlight.
I was wearing a long red dress, while Edmund was in a black suit, holding a glass of wine and drinking with everyone. With the music of the live band, the atmosphere of the dinner party was pushed to a climax.
After we finished our speech on the stage, Myrna immediately came over with a glass of wine in her hand. “Edmund, Leanna, Congratulations!”
“Myrna, you’re back.” I’m so happy to see Myrna.
“Yes, you and Edmund get married. How can I not come to congratulate you?” As she spoke, she held Edmund and me by the arm, smiling.
“It’s a pity that Evelyn is too busy in England to attend the wedding. If she is also here, the three of us will be together.” I said with a little regret.
“Yes. Why didn’t I see Evelyn? Is she still in England? Hasn’t she come back yet?” Only then did Myrna think of Evelyn.
“Yes, I called her the day before yesterday. Judging from her tone, I guess she won’t be back in one thirty. But she is doing well there.”.
“You two are chatting here. I’m going to greet the guests first.” Seeing that we were having a good conversation, Edmund went to entertain the guests alone.
At this time, I simply took Myrna to a corner of the garden. The two sat down and talked about our recent situation.
We just sat down. After a few words, we saw Ophelia, mother-in-law, came over with several rich women in the crowd.
“Leanna, these are my friends.” She walked up to me and introduced directly. After she finished, I noticed Myrna beside her. She looked a little embarrassed and said, “Myrna is also here.”
“Hello, auntie.” Myrna greeted Ophelia politely.
Seeing this, those ladies showed an expression of watching a good show.
“Hello, ladies. Thank you for attending my wedding with Edmund. I” At this time, I took out the posture of the hostess, calmly facing everyone’s inquiry and questioning eyes, and said with a smile.
My mother-in-law smiled with satisfaction when she saw my reaction.
“You’re welcome. We’re good friends with your mother-in-law. We’re all family. Don’t be so formal with her.” A lady replied with a smile.
“Well, Leanna, you have something to talk with Myrna. We won’t disturb you. Let’s go over there and have a seat.” Ophelia helped me out.
I smiled at them, nodded, and watched them turn around and leave.
“Oh, you are so lucky. All the women here are so beautiful, well-educated and reasonable. I can’t find any fault. The key point is that they have such a good relationship. I really envy them.” A lady remarked.
“Yes, I attended a wedding a few days ago. The bridegroom’s ex girlfriend came to make trouble, and the whole wedding was messed up. What’s more, she was on the headline of the gossip magazine. It’s so embarrassing.” Another lady I don’t know nodded.
“What are you talking about? The family can compare with the King family. It seems that she has a good relationship with your new daughter-in-law. Did they know each other before?”
Soon, I heard the voice of my mother-in-law, Ophelia. “I know what you are thinking about. It’s not the same thing. Edmund and Myrna have always been brother and sister. They got married in order to help her gain a foothold in The Fisher group. In fact, Myrna and Leanna have known each other for a long time and have a good relationship, so you can see that they get along so well with each other.”
“Oh, I see. They love each other so much that even if they act, they can’t be so serious.”
“I’ll tell you the truth. I don’t care what other people think.”
“No, we can’t. If we hear someone making wild guesses later, we will explain it for you.”.
“There’s no need to explain. Anyway, the King family has a good relationship with the Fisher family. I’m not afraid of what others will say.”
……
Not far away, Myrna and I clearly heard their conversation. We could not help but smile at each other.
Myrna looked at me and joked, “it seems that my appearance has caused a lot of trouble to you and Edmund. I”
“Even if you don’t show up, they will say what they want to say.” I don’t care what they think at all. After so many things, I don’t care about what others think of me anymore.
“Leanna, go and propose a toast to Edmund. Look, you’ve been with me all the time. The bridegroom will be unhappy!” Myrna teased.
I raised my head and saw Edmund walking towards me under the moonlight. I also stood up and walked towards my own happiness.
