Then, her dress was stained with a yellowish amniotic fluid.
Clutching the edge of the table, Rena grimaced and called out weakly, âWaylen! Wayten!â
âWhatâs wrong?â
Waylen turned around, his expression shocked, but he remained composed.
He turned off the stove and hurried to help her sit down, simultaneously calling for a servant.
âGet ready! Rena is in labor!â
The servant rushed out in a hurry.
Renaâs forehead was beaded with sweat, but she endured the intense pain and remained calm.
She raised her eyes and noticed her husband was even more anxious than she was, with blue veins pulsing on Waylenâs hands and temples.
Rena offered a faint smile and said, âIâm fine.
Iâm just going to give birthâ¦â
âThe due date is in two weeks.
How can I not be nervous?â
Waylen gently scooped Rena into his arms, oblivious to the stains on his clothes and body.
The household staff proved reliable and held Rena in the back seat.
Waylen started the car and drove swiftly to the hospital.
As the traffic light turned red, he managed to call his parents.
âMom, Dad, Rena is in labor.
Iâm taking her to the hospital now!â
Then he hung up and turned to Rena.
He said softly, âHang in there a little longer.
â
Rena gritted her teeth and replied, âIâm okay!â
Waylenâs eyes were tinged with a hint of red.
He gazed at her for a moment and finally started the car.
Rena had received excellent care during her pregnancy, so this time, she didnât endure too much suffering.
Waylen accompanied her all the way to the delivery room, holding her hand and offering comforting words.
And then, the baby was born.
The faint cry of the fragile miracle brought tears of joy to Waylenâs eyes.
He held Renaâs hand and planted a heartfelt ki*s on her forehead, his voice choked with emotion as he said, âThank you for giving me Alexis, Marcus, and Elva.
Thank you for taking care of Leonel, and thank you for bringing them into my life.
â
Then he inquired if it hurt.
How could a woman give birth without experiencing pain?
