Sophie was under careful monitoring in the ICU. Even though she was saved from danger, she was still unconscious because of excessive loss of blood. Bell and Niki got the news, and they rushed to the hospital immediately. When they saw Scarlett in the corridor, they were stunned and doubted if Scarlett was the one who just got rid of the hand of death.

“Oh, babe…You look so terrible. You must have been so scared.” Bell immediately came to her side and took her into her arms.

“It was the first time I’ve seen so much blood. It was so horrible. I thought I would lose her.” Scarlett couldn’t keep herself from sobbing.

“I heard that Jeff is gonna get married tomorrow. When did they break up? I didn’t know anything about it!”

    Scarlett, not even hearing Sophie’s question, reached for a piece of watermelon. Immediately, Sophie hit her hand, trying to get her attention.“Ouch! What the fuck? Why did you do that? What’s wrong?” Scarlett shook her hand and cried out in pain.“Watermelon? For a pregnant woman? No way.” She handed her an apple and said, “Here. Eat an apple. Take it.”Scarlett frowned. “Can I have a peach instead?”“Peaches will make you feel really warm inside. Like, uncomfortably hot. You don’t wanna eat that.” Sophie put the apple in her hand.“Wait, what? I don’t know what you mean.” Scarlett looked confused.

The last time I saw her was at a model casting, and she was with a middle-aged man at that time, I think. I mean, he was practically geriatric, but like, I’m not judging...”“Oh wow, look at you getting catty.” Sophie laughed out loud.“Anyway, I'm gonna go and find out who she managed to coerce into actually marrying her

Are you getting a sense of superiority now?”“It’s just… I’m just wondering, like, what these guests must be thinking of Fannie right now… they would probably think of me in exactly the same way at my wedding.”“Come on, save your sappy

    He knew. He just didn’t care because he needed some way to vent.“The present result shows that Mrs. Sandler is healthy according to all the criteria listed here. But she is thinner than she is supposed to be, so maybe you should pay more attention to her diet. In general, according to Mrs. Sandler’s current physical condition and unforeseen complications aside, she will give birth to a healthy baby.” The doctor said with a bright smile.Francis breathed a sigh of relief and shook the doctor’s hands again, “Thanks a lot!”The doctor smiled. “Mrs. Sandler seemed a little anxious today.

She recognized the familiar font, and her eyes turned red.These notes and marks were certainly left by Francis. She was not expecting this. She could not have imagined that the ever domineering Francis had been working so hard to prepare to be a qualified father.Scarlett was holding the picture book and tears kept falling from her eyes, wetting the pages.

We don’t need it!”Francis ground his teeth. He was speechless.***Francis’s car pulled into the parking lot of the Office of the City Clerk.

How long was the flight from Lisbon to Irving anyway? And didn’t you have a stopover in Dallas?”Scarlett rested her head on Francis’s shoulder and said, “Well, I wanted to go to bed early last night.

What’s going to happen to us while you’re gone? At least try to see if you can come back sooner….” Francis moaned unhappily. He hated being away from his wife.“Carlos will take care of his sisters, and besides, Brittany and Shannon are very good kids.” Scarlett comforted gently. “You don’t have to worry about anything.”“I’m not talking about them.
