The doctors inside were examining Eunice. After recording the information, they were about to leave.

Joel was quite curious about Eunice and asked her, "So this child is Mortimer's?"

"Yes."

"The baby looks healthy. Have you bought clothes for the baby?"

"Yeah, I got some clothes already."

"What colors? Let me see." Joel was curious.

Eunice asked Courtney to bring the clothes for Joel to see. Most of them were pink and yellow.

Joel chuckled. "You don't know the baby's gender, right?"

"No." Eunice shook her head.

Joel smiled and said, "Well, I'll tell you now. You bought the wrong clothes. The little one in your belly is a boy."

Eunice was stunned upon being told the baby's gender in advance. "My baby is a boy?"

"Yes. He'll be out soon, so it doesn't matter if I tell you now." Joel put his hands in the pockets of his white coat, looking tall and handsome.

"Oh, I bought all the wrong clothes," Eunice said regretfully.

Perhaps baby clothes for girls were more beautiful and ad

    In just a minute, Eunice was writhing in pain on the bed, curled up like a frozen shrimp.Yasmin went over and held her hand. "Eunice, if it hurts, just squeeze my hand tightly…"Eunice gripped Yasmin's hand so hard it felt like she could crush her bones.Yasmin felt Eunice's pain, and her eyes filled with tears. She hadn't expected childbirth to be this painful. She comforted Eunice, "Eunice, it's okay. It's okay…"The doctor arrived quickly and examined Eunice, confirming that she was indeed having contractions.The doctor said, "Ms. Salle, don't scream during contractions. Breathe deeply, conserve your energy, and save your strength for delivery later.""I can't take it… Ah…" Eunice was in so much pain that she rolled around on the bed. Her belly felt like it was contracting tightly as if something was trying to break out of it. She pounded the bed in agony.The doctor pressed Eunice down. "Ms. Salle, don't move around. Take deep breaths and try to relax. Breathe in deeply…

    Eunice looked at the obstetricians.Joel interjected, "We can't do that. Eunice's vital signs are suitable for natural birth. We can't just change to a C-section. It'll cause more harm to her body.""But she's in so much pain! Is that okay?" Mortimer's tone grew heavy. Those who knew him well could tell he was upset."If the pain is too much, we can administer an epidural later.""Give it to her now!" Mortimer ordered, his face cold.Joel looked helpless. "Mortimer, the epidural should be given when the cervix is dilated to 4 cm. Eunice has just started having contractions. It's not time yet."Yasmin was shocked.Eunice was already in so much pain, yet the dilation was not even at one inch and above. How much worse would it be when it reached 4 inches?Eunice cried even harder. She was in so much pain, but it was only the beginning. She felt like she couldn't go on.Hearing Eunice cry, Mortimer grew anxious again. His usually emotionless face was filled with worry. "Eunice, do

    Eunice's tears flowed even more as she said, "It really hurt just now.""And now?"Eunice assessed her pain and realized the epidural must have taken effect, as she felt significantly better. She pouted pitifully and said, "It's a lot better after the epidural. It doesn't hurt as much…""That's good." Mortimer breathed a sigh of relief.Joel, who was standing nearby, suggested, "While Eunice hasn't started delivering yet, let her eat some sweets to replenish her energy. The real challenge is yet to come.""Alright." Mortimer took the sweet and carefully unwrapped it before gently bringing it to Eunice's mouth. "Eunice, eat this."Eunice took a bite, then cried again. She didn't understand why she was crying. Perhaps seeing someone she trusted made her emotional."Eunice, eat a bit more." Mortimer, who was usually a sophisticated and calm man, wiped away her tears and fed her another one.Standing by, Yasmin couldn't help but feel touched by Mortimer's gentleness.After finishi

    They waited and waited.At 3:00 am, Yasmin asked Joel, "How's Eunice? Hasn't the baby been born yet?"Joel made a phone call to inquire and reported back, "She's still in labor."Yasmin sighed deeply, realizing just how challenging childbirth could be.At 7:00 am, a nurse finally came out with good news. "Congratulations! Ms. Salle has given birth to a baby boy at 7:01 am. Both mother and child are doing well."Yasmin felt a huge relief wash over her. The labor lasted a full six hours, during which she waited anxiously and sleepily outside. She dared not fall asleep, forcing herself to stay awake for any news.Now knowing that Eunice was alright, Yasmin felt relieved and tried to stand up to ask the nurse about Eunice's condition. However, she nearly fell as her legs gave out from under her.Blake swiftly caught her and held her in his warm embrace. "Be careful.""My legs are numb," Yasmin replied, then asked the nurse, "When can Eunice come out? Should we prepare some brown su

    By the time they woke up, it was already late afternoon.Yasmin stretched lazily and basked in the lazy afternoon sunlight, feeling like she had transcended into another world.She got out of bed, put on her house slippers, and walked into the living room.Blake was sitting at the dining table, working on his laptop. His shirt sleeves were rolled up slightly, and his high nose bridge was highlighted under the sunlight, casting a particularly handsome and charming profile.Yasmin paused in her steps. "You're still here?""I slept late last night, so I'm working from home today," Blake explained. Seeing her awake, he asked, "Are you hungry? I can make something for you.""No. I'll just have some milk."Yasmin walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. It was fully stocked with meat and vegetables that Blake had sent over.She frowned. Was he planning to move in? Why else would he have so much food delivered?She felt a bit frustrated as she grabbed a bottle of cold

    "I couldn't help it." Blake smiled, stroking Yasmin's long hair. "Wait for me at home. I'll be back soon."Yasmin's expression didn't change, but her delicate features made her look adorable. Blake chuckled and covered her with a thin blanket before leaving.After Blake left, Yasmin let out a soft sigh. She really didn't want to reconcile with Blake. She was just too tired to refuse him. He was like a sticky gum that couldn't be shaken off.Yasmin thought it would be best to wait until the day he decided not to pursue her anymore.…Blake returned around 7:00 pm, holding a bouquet of white roses.He had successfully bid on the purple diamond and had already sent it to be crafted into a piece of jewelry.Feeling cheerful, he entered the house, removed his shoes at the entrance, and imagined Yasmin's delighted expression upon seeing the flowers. He couldn't help but smile. "Yaz," he called out.The lights were on, but no one answered."Yaz." Blake walked into the bedroom. Th

    Mortimer smiled and said, "Even if you enjoy taking care of him, it's better for you to focus on your recovery. Wait until the end of the confinement period before playing with him.""You're so bossy." Eunice was unwilling and huffed. "I want to watch over him.""You can watch, but try not to play with him too much and avoid holding him. Take care of yourself."Yasmin listened to their conversation in the hospital room, feeling like she wanted to cover her eyes. Did they even realize she was there?After chatting for a while, the baby returned from his bath. Mortimer's eyes softened upon seeing him. He walked over, picked up the baby, and showed him to Eunice and Yasmin.The baby perfectly inherited the best features of both her and Mortimer.Yasmin couldn't help but smile at the adorable, chubby little baby."He's so cute." Yasmin reached out and gently poked his cheek. The baby, who had just fallen asleep, opened his big dark eyes and looked at her.Eunice said, "Baby,

    Yasmin quietly stood there, not wanting to say much. She just said to Mortimer, "I'm going back now."Then, she stepped into the elevator.As the elevator doors closed, Blake turned to Yasmin and asked, his gaze deep and intent, "Why didn't you tell me you were going out? And why didn't you answer your phone?"Blake reached out to take her hand, but she evaded his touch. His hand froze in midair.Yasmin didn't want to get too close to him, fearing their relationship might gradually become uncontrollable. She said vaguely, "I don't want to talk about it.""I'll worry if you don't tell me."Yasmin was silent for a moment, then sighed. "I've already told you. You don't need to worry about me. I can live well on my own, and I don't need to report my whereabouts to you. We're not in a relationship."Blake stayed silent for a few seconds.Fortunately, the elevator arrived at her floor. Yasmin walked out and quickly hailed a taxi.Through the rearview mirror, she saw that Blake hadn'

    Pamela thought that Yasmin's voice sounded strange, but since Yasmin was an important client, she didn't dare offend her.Politely, she replied, "It's okay. Please take your time.""Alright, please leave for now. I'll look for you once I'm finished here," Yasmin said in a strained voice."Okay." Pamela left soon after.Once she was gone, Yasmin awkwardly tapped Blake's shoulder. "Alright, stop it. You almost got us caught just now."Blake was now satisfied. A man who had been sated was no longer as surly. He became shockingly gentle, wrapping his arms around her waist and saying, "Join me for dinner later.""Okay," Yasmin weakly agreed. "Please let me go now."Blake finally released his hold on her. Yasmin's legs felt like jelly, and she nearly stumbled as soon as he let go.He steadied her and looked down at the torn train of the wedding dress. The front, however, still looked fine. He smiled and said, "You still look beautiful in the wedding dress."Yasmin glanced at the mir

    Blake didn't respond, choosing instead to stare at Yasmin. She had just removed the tiara, letting her long hair cascade over her left shoulder. This brought attention to her fair skin and made her appear as if she was an otherworldly beauty.No wonder Ivan had been mesmerized earlier. A woman in a wedding dress truly possessed a sacred kind of elegance.Blake's gaze traveled down to her chest. She looked exquisite, but something was missing—the ring. His face darkened as he asked, "Where's the ring?""I took it off when I was trying on the wedding dress. I put it in my bag," Yasmin replied. She turned around to retrieve it for him.Maybe it was the way the wedding dress hugged her slender figure, or the graceful way she bent down to pick up the ring, her hips subtly lifting. Either way, the movement exuded an undeniable allure.Blake suddenly felt an overwhelming urge rise from within him. He walked up behind her and placed his hands on her waist as if possessed.Yasmin froze

    Ivan sneered in response. "Oh? Do you want to come over and have a drink at the wedding?""There's no need for a wedding toast, but I'll send you a nice little gift soon. You've had Lizzie abducted, and I haven't settled that score yet." Blake's tone was cold and menacing.Still, Ivan wasn't afraid. He took a couple of steps forward, smirking as he said, "Feel free to try—but you should think it through. You have more loved ones than I do. "Besides your mother and Lizzie, there's also your grandmother. I could blow up your mother's hospital today, kidnap Lizzie tomorrow, and have your grandmother killed the day after."Blake's cold laughter came through the phone. "Is that so? Well then, I guess I need to send you a big gift today."The two men continued their exchange from a distance. Yasmin, who was unable to hear the conversation clearly, was trembling with fear. She was terrified of what they might be discussing.It was at this moment when Wendy hurried in from outside. She

    Yasmin stepped into the fitting room and changed into the wedding dress. When she emerged, her long hair was elegantly pinned up, and her red lips were vibrant. It made her look breathtakingly beautiful.Ivan saw her and was momentarily stunned. His gaze was unwavering as he stared wide-eyed. Then, he caught himself and smiled. "Yasmin, you look stunning."She gave a slight smile in response, adding to her allure.Ivan was almost entranced. He picked up a crystal-encrusted tiara from nearby and placed it on her head. She glanced upward, her eyes sparkling as she stood there in the white wedding dress. She looked absolutely mesmerizing, and Ivan couldn't take his eyes off her.Meanwhile, Blake watched from across the street with a growing sense of jealousy. The sight of them together made him smirk cynically. Unable to contain himself, he pulled out his phone and called Yasmin.He didn't want to see them looking so perfect together. It irritated him to no end.When Yasmin's ph

    Yasmin's heart ached as she listened, her eyes reddening. "You're doing great, Trist. If Mom were with you right now, I'd definitely give you a big hug."Tristan mumbled, "Mom, stop acting like it's the end of the world. You sound so sentimental. I'm doing just fine here. I've got friends to play with and plenty of household staff members to look after me. "You just take care of yourself in Merania, and do whatever you need to do. Once you're in Rimmervale, we'll see each other again."Yasmin nodded. "Yes, we'll see each other very soon."Just then, the door swung open, and there Ivan stood in the doorway. Yasmin jumped in surprise and instinctively ended the video call."Why are you crying?" Ivan asked, noticing her red eyes.Yasmin wiped her tears and smiled. "It's nothing. I just miss Trist."Ivan understood that being a mother made Yasmin emotional whenever she thought about her child. He then asked, "By the way, how was Trist's winter camp? When is he coming back?"Feelin

    Yasmin huffed in exasperation. "I just stole his proposal a few days ago, and now he's starting to get suspicious. If I tell him I don't want to take wedding photos, he'll be on to me for sure. If he gets suspicious, my plan will be completely ruined."Blake remained silent on the other end of the line.Yasmin sighed and continued, "It's really not a big deal. This is the last thing I need to do with him. The wedding is in seven days—it'll all be over by then.""When are the wedding photos being taken?" Blake asked.Yasmin hesitated before answering, "Didn't I already tell you? The day after tomorrow, in the afternoon."Blake only replied with a simple, "It's late. Go to sleep." Then, he ended the call.Yasmin could tell he was not all too pleased, but she really didn't want to stir up more trouble than necessary. There were just seven more days to go—Yasmin wanted to get through the final spurt safely and smoothly.…On the day of the wedding dress fitting, Yasmin was having b

    Yasmin had no idea what Ivan would do to her if he learned the truth. She feared that if she angered him, he might lock her up somewhere no one would ever find her."I did that because my grandma suggested it to me," Yasmin explained."Your grandma knows about all of this?" Blake asked."Of course. Do you think someone as sharp as her wouldn't notice that every time you visited, we disappeared for hours? She figured it out a long time ago and asked me what was going on between us.""So, you told her everything about us?""Yes, she knows we've reconciled. I even planted a listening device on Ivan. We're hoping to acquire evidence of his illegal activities." Yasmin nodded as she spoke."Did your grandma suggest that to you too?"Yasmin replied briefly, "Yes."Blake let out a soft laugh. "Your grandma is quite the master of strategies.""She really is," Yasmin agreed with a smile. But seconds later, her expression grew serious. "Blake, there's something I need to tell you.""Wha

    Yasmin's face turned pale as she realized the extent of the surveillance at the Burke residence."Can the surveillance footage from the study be deleted?" Yasmin asked at the time.The housekeeper shook her head. "It can't be deleted. The surveillance is linked to Mr. Burke's computer. His computer is password-protected, and only he has access to it."Yasmin's heart sank at the news. She knew that once Blake made his move to sabotage Ivan's project, Ivan would inevitably discover that she was involved.Hence, she had already discussed a plan with Imogen to handle the situation. Although the process had been nerve-wracking, everything had gone smoothly. Ivan seemed to believe her explanation.With the project now in jeopardy, Ivan would likely need additional funding, which meant it was unlikely that he would call off the engagement. Yasmin assured herself that Ivan wouldn't do anything drastic to her—not when he needed money from Sander International.After seeing Ivan off, Yasmi

    Ivan gently touched Yasmin's face and said softly, "Forget it. Four years ago, you did wrong by him. It's understandable that he threatened you. But don't worry, I've already forced him back to Stanton City."Soon, I'll deal with everyone who has wronged you. I'll make him miserable and ensure he has no time to harass you."Yasmin stared at him in surprise. "Ivo, what are you going to do to those people?""I won't let a single person who hurt you get away with it. However they treated you, I'll make sure they experience the same," Ivan said, his eyes dark with resolve.Yasmin took a deep breath, unable to find the right words.Ivan seemed to realize that his current expression was too grim. He softened his demeanor and asked with a forced smile, "Let me see what you bought for me."Yasmin quickly snapped back to attention and began showing him the gifts she had purchased. Since she had never bought him anything before, Ivan looked somewhat dazed as he looked at the gifts.He pic
