Perhaps these words gave Sophia hope, because she felt that her whole body was full of strength in an instant. She
even struggled to sit up from the bed and got out of it, then waited for the wheelchair to come over. Sitting down in
it by herself, she was then pushed to the delivery room.
Lying in the room, an anesthesiologist came over and gave Sophia the epidural.
This is the best invention ever. After a while, Sophia didn’t feel any more pain.
She felt like she had gone from hell to heaven in one single step, and instantly, she felt that she was alive again.
After a while, John changed into a sterile suit and entered the room.
When Sophia saw him, she immediately pursed her mouth. The tears she had saved up in the waiting room just
now came rushing out at once.
John couldn’t help but laugh. “The doctor said you’re not feeling any pain anymore.”
Sophia snorted softly and said unhappily, “I’m angry. I suffered the most back in the waiting room, yet you didn’t
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteven witness it.”
Going over to her, John helped wipe the sweat from her forehead. “I know, I know you have suffered a lot, and I will
compensate you well after this.”
With that said, Sophia felt overwhelmed with emotion again, and tears flowed down freely.
Then the doctor who came in also laughed. “Don’t cry. Save your energy up when you’re pushing the baby out
later.”
The cervix was not fully dilated yet, so they were still waiting.
But because the pain had ceased, Sophia was able to sleep well. Sitting next to the bed, John held Sophia’s hand
and looked at her sleeping face. The woman had been suffering for almost the entire day. Now even if it didn’t hurt
anymore, her small face remained pale, and the sight of it pained John tremendously. Sophia didn’t sleep well. She
woke up once in a while, opened her eyes, and took a look beside her. Every time she turned around, she’d see
John by her side. “I’m here, so just sleep peacefully.” In a low voice, she uttered, “I don’t want to sleep here. I want
to go home to sleep. When is he gonna come out?” John didn’t know either. “I’ll call the doctor over to take a look.”
Sophia closed her eyes and fell asleep in a daze. After a while, a doctor was walking around the door of the delivery
room, so John called her in and asked her about Sophia’s situation. The doctor checked Sophia, then frowned and
said, “The condition of her cervix is not very good. It may still be related to the poor resilience of her uterus.” She
turned around and called several midwives over. John didn’t understand what they were talking about and only
accompanied Sophia by the side. Sophia’s belly no longer hurt, and so she became bolder now. When she awoke
and found that so many doctors were surrounding her to discuss her condition, she was not afraid at all. In a daze,
she mumbled, “You call me when I’m about to give birth.” Although it wasn’t the right time to laugh, John really felt
like snickering.

After sleeping for a while, a doctor came over to manually expand the uterus. Sophia didn’t feel anything. Because
it didn’t hurt or itch, she wasn’t fearful. She even looked at the doctor and asked, “I’m a little hungry. Can I eat right
after giving birth?” The doctor raised her eyebrows and looked at her. “You have an excellent mental state.” After
working for a while, the doctor finally removed the epidural, and the pain came again in a rush after that. The
doctor said that this would help her exert force later to push out the baby. If there were no pain, Sophia would not
know how and when to push. Good God, the pain was coming again, and Sophia’s tears started flowing as well. John
turned his head to the side; he really couldn’t bear to see Sophia’s tears. The instrument by the bed showed the
waves of pain, and the doctor taught Sophia how and when to push during the contractions. It was not as
complicated as the doctor had previously mentioned, so Sophia was very cooperative. Perhaps the pain had been
going on for too long, and the baby felt that it was enough suffering, as, during the latter half of the labor, the baby
was very cooperative. There was an electronic clock in the delivery room, and within just half an hour, Sophia heard
the doctor say that the baby was delivered. She felt her belly releasing something, which came out from within her
body. However, the baby didn’t cry at once. At this, Sophia, who hadn’t panicked all this while, started becoming
nervous. .
