John was a little dazed by the side, not because the baby was not crying, but because the baby was born all of a
sudden, and he could not wrap his head around it for a moment.
The doctor held the baby with his hands and came over to John. “Come on, let your father see if you’re a boy or a
girl.”
It was very obvious. John could tell at a glance that the baby was a boy. “It’s a boy.”
There was a crib next to them, and the doctor went to put the baby down and began to wipe the blood off him.
It was at this time that the baby suddenly kicked his legs and started crying in a small and weak voice.
Sophia turned her head and looked over at him. She wasn’t used to her new role as a mother yet, so she was
rather confused.
The baby kicked his legs again and turned halfway to his side. One of his eyes was still closed. The other was open,
but it was uncertain if he could actually see much.

The doctor laughed beside the crib. “Such a plucky little boy. He only made a short announcement.”
Raising his hand, John carefully placed it on the child’s face and touched him with the back of his fingers. The
baby’s skin was tender, which surprised him.
The doctor then began to examine the child’s whole body. Ears, nose, eyes, fingers, and toes… He counted them
one by one to John.
John just nodded beside him. “He’s very healthy.
” After all the checks were completed, the doctor began to dress the child. It was at this time that Sophia finally
reacted and realized that this was her child. He had been in her womb for nearly ten months, and he had caused
her to not eat nor sleep well. It was because of him that she had thrown up and shed tears. Now, this little baby had
finally come out, looking all pink and tender and staring at her with one eye open. He had made her suffer until
midnight of Logan and Lola’s wedding day before arriving at the world. Logan and Lola knew that Sophia had not
yet given birth to the baby, so they did not rush to the hospital after their reception was over. When they woke up
the next morning, the two of them packed up and hurried to the hospital. Upon arriving, they learned that Sophia
had entered the delivery room. All the people in the Constance Family were waiting outside the delivery room,
including the Second and Third Constance Family. Old Mrs. Constance wore her best outfit and brought her rosary
beads. She sat at the door of the delivery room while holding the beads, praying for the safety of the mother and
child. Initially, Matilda was the calmest of these people, but now she was also nervous. Seeing Logan and Lola
coming, she reached out and grabbed the latter’s hand. “My heart is pounding. They haven’t come out after
entering for so long. It wouldn’t happen to be twins, would it?” William scratched his nose next to her, seemingly
amused. He raised his hand to tuck the hair beside Matilda’s ear away. “Nonsense! The prenatal check-ups have
always shown only one child. It’s impossible to make another copy in the delivery room, right?” Matilda knew that
William was teasing herself. She patted William’s hand and said, “How could you still be in the mood to joke? I’m so

Constance mumbled next to her, “It’s okay, it’s okay. Everything will be okay. Sophia is a thoughtful and kind girl, so
the mother and child will definitely be safe and sound.” There was an electronic screen outside the delivery room.
When the mother had already given birth in the delivery room, the family members would be notified in real-time
outside whether it was a boy or a girl. Every time the screen flashed, the notification was about a baby from
someone else’s family. It made the Constance family members feel agitated. When Logan looked at them, he
seemed to see his own future self. He said, “When Sophia was pregnant before, she exercised frequently. She
should have a smooth delivery and will be fine.” As soon as he finished speaking, the notification sound on the
screen rang out across the hall. Then, the announcement about Sophia and her baby came. Old Mrs. Constance
paused for a minute. Blinking, she then turned to look at Matilda. “Did you hear that? Did they announce Sophia just
now?” Matilda nodded mechanically. “It looks like she gave birth to a boy.” Old Mrs. Constance couldn’t hold back a
delighted yelp, and then she made a sign of the cross and thanked the heavens for the good news. On the contrary,
the Second and Third Constance Families looked much calmer than them. .
