Wendy chuckled. "That''s right, Chubs, no need for tears now. Crying too much might damage your


    eyes and could even contribute to postpartum depression."


    Pressing her lips together, M forced a smile. "Thank you, Wendy. I''ll try not to cry."


    Wendy encouraged further, "That''s the spirit! Premature babies aren''t a cause for concern nowadays.


    With advanced medical technology, they just need a few months in the hospital, and then they''ll be


    ready toe home.


    "I have experience in childcare; I can lend a hand. I''ll ensure your baby grows up chubby and healthy."


    Florence quickly chimed in, "I''ll take care of him too. I''ve raised kids just as well as Wendy. Just


    consider Nathan, Taylor, and, of course, Daniel..." Patting Daniel on the back, Florence added, "He''s as


    strong as a bull."


    Caught off guard by the sudden pat, Daniel instinctively covered his chest, looking bewildered.


    M couldn''t resist stealing a nce at Daniel. She was moved by his gesture to visit her despite being


    blind. A wave of emotion washed over her, and she managed a faint smile.


    "Chubs, congrattions to you and Nathan on the new addition to your family," Daniel said.


    M replied warmly, "Thank you, Daniel."


    Taylor joined in with congrattions, yfully teasing, "Chubs, even though he''s only three pounds six


    ounces, that little guy looks surprisingly strong I could hear his cries from outside the ss; he''s got


    quite the set of lungs. And his kicking and iling... impressive, to say the least."


    M''s smile widened, genuinely uplifted by Taylor''s words about her son. "Thank you, Taylor," she


    replied gratefully.


    Florence gently squeezed M''s hand, her heart swelling with empathy and admiration. "Chubs, you''ve


    been through so much. You nearly lost your life bringing this baby into the world.


    "The doctors said you had severe bleeding and almost needed a hysterectomy to survive. It''s all thanks


    to your resilient telets and the dedicated obstetricians that you''re here with us today. Thankfully, they


    managed to stop the bleeding in the end."


    Little did they know, M had extensively researched the dangers of childbirth even before bing


    pregnant.


    After all, wasn''t a brush with death amon urrence for women duringbor?


    As long as the child was healthy, all the challenges were worth it.


    However, M promised herself she would remember the pain of today. In the future, she vowed never


    to endure childbirth again.


    M offered a gentle smile and shook her head reassuringly. "Florence, I''m feeling better now."


    "Don''t downy it, Chubs. You''re still


    recovering," Florence insisted


    earnestly, her tone gentle. "Come


    home with me. I''ll take care


    you,


    along with the maternity neve


    Nathan, consumed by guilt and remorse, couldn''t help but interject, "Mom, Chubs is staying-"


    "That sounds wonderful, Florence. Thank you," M cut him off.


    Nathan froze, surprise flickering across his face as he nced at her.


    Was she not nning to return to Sudvi? Did she no longer need his care and support?


    Nathan could sense M''s lingering resentment toward him. When she woke up, she briefly nced at


    him. But since then, she hadn''t acknowledged him or even spared him a second nce.


    Her evident indifference weighed heavily on Nathan, and he grappled with the guilt he felt toward M


    and their baby.


    Meanwhile, Florence''s enthusiasm overflowed. "I''ll have the maids clean your room thoroughly and set


    up a nursery for my precious grandson."


    M expressed her gratitude with a smile, "Thank you, Florence."


    Florence waved her phone dismissively. "We''re family; there''s no need for formalities. Just make


    yourself at home."


    In the corridor, Nathan stood by the window, feeling a weight of remorse as he looked out at the


    scenery.


    "Hey, Daniel," Nathan greeted him.


    Nathan''s tone turned bitter. "You could tell?"


    "Well, I''ve let her and our son down. I''m always absent when she needs me the most," Nathan


    admitted.


    Daniel furrowed his brow, pondering for a moment. "Is missing the birth


    Your child the only issue here?
