Whitney saw her friend Lena still looking pale and couldn't help but feel for her. Whitney asked, "Lena, was giving birth really painful?"Whitney Moore Lena nodded and said, "It hurt, for sure! But I toughed it out. I didn't get the epidural. When it's your turn, Whit, make sure you get it." Whitney grinned, "Congrats, Lena!

You guys finally got your little angel." Lena looked at her daughter with so much love in her eyes. Whitney could totally see that new mom vibe in Lena now. Lena said, "She's been super quiet, hardly cried, just snoozing away." Dustin's face lit up with pride. "Of course our Emma is a good girl, right, Emma?" Dustin doted on his daughter, gently cooing at her. Whitney asked, "Is Emma her name?" "Yep! Her full name is Emma Reed, and we'll call her Emma," Lena replied with a smile. Klein scooted over next to Dustin, peeking in for a closer look.

The baby's tiny hands and feet were so small, and they were barely the size of his finger. He had admit that she was pretty adorable. But Klein couldn't resist teasing, "Honey, I still think the names we came up with this morning sound way better." Dustin's temples throbbed. "Klein, you looking for a fight?" Whitney snapped, "Klein!" Whitney shot a glare at Klein, who was running his mouth. "Emma is perfect! Stop talking nonsense." Klein pouted and kept quiet. Dustin rolled his eyes and said, "Hey, Klein, don't get too close to my girl." Klein said, "Just taking a peek.

What, is that not allowed now? Dustin, you actually ended up with a baby girl, huh." Dustin smirked, looking all smug. "Told you, the moment my wife got pregnant, I just knew it was gonna be a girl." Klein joked, "Why don't you try guessing for my wife too?" Dustin was dumbfounded. "Guess for your wife? She's not even pregnant. Wait," Lena's eyes lit up in surprise. "Whit, you're expecting?" Whitney nodded. "Yeah, I just found out yesterday. I was planning to wait until I hit three months before telling anyone." Dustin's jaw dropped. He hadn't expected Klein and Whitney to catch up so soon.

Dustin grinned, "Congrats, Klein! Hope you end up with a big, bouncing baby boy!" Klein smirked, narrowing his eyes. "Dustin, if you're itching for a fight, just say so." James couldn't stand these two brats anymore. "If you two keep bickering, get out!" And just like that, James wasted no time in kicking them both out. James settled himself by the bed. Whitney could tell he wanted to have a word with his granddaughter, so she was about to step out and give them some space, but James waved her back. James said, "Whit, you're here too. Perfect.

I've got something to say to both of you." James said, "Lena, your dad left us early, and there's not much I can do for you now. So I'm giving you 10% of the company shares. Uncle Klein will handle your yearly dividends. Aunt Sabrina always claims I'm playing favorites with Uncle Klein, but I discussed everything with my three sons before splitting things up. George and your dad never had any complaints. Klein just has more on his plate." "If Aunt Sabrina tries to mess with you, just se Successfully unlocked!

Sabrina had always complained that her son hau, realized that her husband's shares would naturally be inherited by her son Carter one day. Chapter 204 Long Time No See "Thank you, Grandpa!" Lena said. Then James turned to Whitney and said, "Whit, once Sabrina finds out about the shares, she's probably going to kick up a fuss again. Just stay in your room and don't bother with her. You're pregnant, so don't let her stress you out. It's not worth it for you and the baby." That was why nobody had even bothered to send a car for Sabrina after she went back to her parents' place this time.

James just let George handle the mess. Their marriage was their own circus, and he was too old to meddle in their drama now. James added, "But Klein won't let you get bullied. Honestly, if he doesn't drive Sabrina up the wall, that's already a miracle." Whitney's mouth twitched. Was that supposed to be a compliment or...? Whitney and the others hung around for a bit before letting Lena get some rest. On the way home, Klein kept staring at Whitney's belly for a long time. Whitney tugged on his ear and said, "Why are you staring at my belly like that?" Klein didn't even flinch.

"Hey, that hurts, baby." Whitney let go and gave a little huff. "Stop thinking about having a daughter all the time. Don't scare her off before she's even here! Who stares at their baby bump every day before the baby's even born?" Klein pursed his lips and said, "I just wanted to see if I could tell if it's a girl." Whitney couldn't help but laugh. "So, did you figure it out?" や Klein shook his head. "Nope, not a clue. Dustin was just talking nonsense. He just got lucky." "It's fine, baby. I just know we'll get lucky too," Klein said. Honestly, Whitney wasn't obsessed with having a daughter.

She figured, boy or girl, as long as it was her kid, she'd love them with all her heart. "Just remember, Klein, whether it's a boy or a girl, you gotta love them the same," Whitney said. "Of course," Klein replied. ***** Lena was staying at Dustin's own hospital, and his mom dropped by almost every day. Tomorrow, Lena was planning to head home and start her postpartum recovery. The nanny was already on duty, and Lena decided to extend her recovery period a bit longer than usual. Since she'd had a natural birth, she was able to get out of bed almost immediately.

The doctor said that as long as there weren't any major tears or heavy bleeding, and it was best to start moving around as soon as possible. Getting up and walking helped boost circulation and kept blood clots at bay. Having a doctor in the family was a real perk. Dustin was always a step ahead, guiding Lena even faster than the hospital staff. There was a meeting at the hospital today, so Dustin told Lena he'd be back in two hours. Lena told him to go take care of it, and then took it slow as she walked the corridor, one hand on the rail for support.

But then, a tall, elegant figure caught her eye, and she froze for a moment. The man seemed to sense her gaze. His long fingers paused on the doorknob. When he looked up, his narrow eyes flickered sharply with surprise. He strolled over to Lena and said, "Lena, long time no see." Lena was still a bit curvy from giving birth, dressed in loose clothes. She managed a smile. "Long time no see, Ethan." "You had a baby?" Ethan raised her eyebrows. Lena nodded. "Yeah." "Congrats," Ethan said with a smile. "I'm just here to see a friend. I'll head out.

Let's keep in touch." Of course, he was just being polite. Lena couldn't help tightening her grip on the handrail. For a moment, a hint of wistfulness flickered across her face. What she didn't realize was that, as she watched Ethan walking away, Dustin's gaze quietly lingered on her back, his eyes narrowed in thought. 2/3 Chapter 204 Long Time No See By the time Lena returned to her ward, she had already pulled herself together. As for Ethan, he was like something forever out of reach, a dream she could never touch. She couldn't even say how much of that old crush was still left.

It was just a teenage infatuation, something that only ever existed in her own imagination. But after her mom remarried, that fantasy was over for good. Lena came from a prominent family, and she couldn't let any scandal stick to her name or give people something to gossip about. After marrying Dustin, Ethan rarely crossed her mind anymore. She hadn't expected to run into him today. Dustin came in, pushing the door open. Lena grinned at him. "Done with your meeting?" "Yeah," Dustin said, sounding nonchalant. Lena could tell right away that something was off with him. "What's up?

Was the meeting a pain or something?" Dustin looked down at their baby girl. "Not really." Lena didn't give it much thought. "Okay, so what time are we checking out tomorrow?" Dustin looked up, his eyes deep and unreadable. "Let's just leave now." Subscribed 3 Likes admin
