Chapter 1087
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
Moreover, upon learning yesterday that she would meet Aiden here today, Jennifer had gone on and on about Aiden all night during bedtime and even took out her pretty dress to ask Felix if she looked good in it and whether Aiden would like it or not. This made Felix uncomfortable for some reason.
Felix thought, âI donât want her to care so much about Aido.
I just want her to care about me!â
At this moment, Aiden put Jennifer down and stepped forward to greet Rosalie and the other children politely.
However, when he came to Felix, the latter simply looked away and did not respond to Aidenâs greeting.
Aiden didnât mind, though. He smiled and said to Lillian, âLillian, how about I take them to see Yasmin?â
âSure,â Lillian answered. Her daughter was being watched by several nannies and housekeepers, so she didnât have to worry about anything.
As such, Aiden led the group of children upstairs.
Looking at the horde of kids, Lillian couldnât help chortling. âOnce Ameliaâs baby is born in the future, this team of children will expand even more. It will be interesting to have eight children traveling together!â
âOh right, Amelia, how was the result of that consultation?â Rosalie inquired concernedly, and Lillian also quickly leaned in to listen.
Amelia then told them what the doctor had told her.
âThen, are you going to continue with the pregnancy and ask for a cesarean section when the time comes?â Rosalie asked.
âMhm,â Amelia replied.
âDid Warren not say anything?â
âHe⦠did not.â Amelia hesitated momentarily but ultimately didnât want to tell her friends about how she was forced onto the operating table. After all, nothing happened in the end, and she didnât want them to worry.
âNo matter what, you have to be in one piece!â Rosalie said.
âThatâs right. Youâd best not be like me and come so close to dying!â Lillian chimed in. âYesterday, Callum and I casually chatted about having a second child, but he refused to get me pregnant again no matter what I said. I feel like after this experience, he has become somewhat paranoid.â
âDid Callum find out anything about you being injected with poison during delivery?â Rosalie suddenly thought of this. âIf you lack the connection to investigate it, feel free to tell me. Jon has several experts in this field with him.â
âThanks for the offer, but Callum has already found something. However, he only managed to pinpoint the person who injected me and hasnât found the mastermind yet. Right now, we can only remain vigilant and slowly try our best to lure out the person behind the scenes,â Lillian replied.
Rosalie gave it a thought and agreed. After all, only by finding the mastermind could the problem really be solved.
âBy the way, Amelia, remember to pay attention when you give birth as well. You must tell Warren to investigate everyone lest someone is up to no good,â Lillian warned.
Rosalie said, âDonât worry. Warren has already witnessed your experience with his own eyes. Thereâs no way heâll dare to be negligent. In fact, he will likely do a thorough check right down to the doctors and nursesâ ancestors.â
Amelia forced a smile in response, pondering, âNow that Warren and I have gotten to this state, I will probably⦠be giving birth alone next time.â
Meanwhile, on the second floor, the group of children surrounded the crib and observed the sound asleep Yasmin.
Newborns less than a month old tended to spend their time either nursing or sleeping, and Yasmin was no exception.
Guillermo frowned, seemingly thinking about something. âMommy clearly said that Lillianâs newborn is very pretty, but why donât I think so no matter how I see her?â he contemplated.
He averted his gaze to his little sister, thinking, âHmm⦠Jenâs much better-looking.â
Jennifer, on the other hand, stared at the baby curiously and then carefully touched Yasminâs little face.
Her lone thought was that the baby was so tiny, just about the size of some of her bigger dolls.
As for Felix, he didnât pay attention to the baby at all and was instead focused on Jennifer.
Karina looked at the baby and said softly, âSo cute!â
Originally, she had nothing to do with the White family, but because Rosalie wanted to bring Zaid here and Zaid insisted on taking Karina along, the girl also joined in the fun.
The moment she saw the baby, her eyes lit up. She found Yasmin so soft and adorable.
Right then, as if having sensed various gazes on her, the baby opened her eyes and began to cry.
The nanny at the side hurriedly picked up Yasmin and comforted the latter. Soon after, the baby stopped crying, her dark eyes seemingly in search of something.
Noticing that, Karina found the baby way too lovely and couldnât help asking, âMay I hold her?â
The nanny examined Karina. The girl was already seven or eight years old and was at a suitable age to hold an infant, so the nanny carefully handed the baby to Karina and taught the girl how to carry Yasmin. Even after Karina held the baby in her arms, the nanny still maintained a protective gesture that allowed her to catch the baby in time, lest Karinaâs hands accidentally slip and cause Yasmin to drop.
Surprisingly, Karina held the newborn excellently.
âYouâre holding her very well,â Aiden praised.
âHehe! Itâs probably because I used to hold Zeki in the past, too. When he first came to my home, Iâd hold him every night,â Karina said. At that time, Zaid was already three years old while she was only five. It took a lot of effort for her to hold him.
In comparison, it was much easier for her to hold a newborn now.
Zaid saw how Karina looked while holding the baby and became gloomy instead. âKarrie, I want to play in the back garden!â
âAh? Now?â she answered.
âNow.â The boy was very determined.
Hence, Karina had to return Yasmin to the nanny, and then she was quickly dragged out of the room by Zaid.
At this moment, Jennifer was also eager to try and hold the baby. âI want to hold Yasmin too!â
The nanny hesitated briefly. âYou are too young. Will you be able to hold her?â
âYes!â Jennifer said with confidence. âI definitely wonât drop her to the ground.â
Aiden thought for a while before saying, âLet Jen sit on the couch, then. Itâs safer to hold Yasmin that way.â
The nanny agreed with that idea, so she told Jennifer to sit on the couch before carefully transferring the baby from her arms to the girlâs.
Aiden and Guillermo also sat on both sides of Jennifer. Aiden even reminded her from time to time, âYou have to hold her steadily. Thatâs it, just like that. You should hold up her neck with your arm. If you hold her well, she will feel very comfortableâ¦â
Right then, the babyâs head turned, and then she yawned.
