“Whether you can help or not, I hope you try. You don’t want Amelia to be in an accident.”
“Accident?” Rosalie was startled. “What the heck is going on?”
Warren told Rosalie about the diagnosis in the hospital and said, “You are her friend. What I say doesn’t work, but maybe she’ll listen to what you say. Persuade her to give up this baby. If her body can’t bear the stress at the end of the pregnancy…”
He could hardly imagine the situation then.
Hearing that, Rosalie put on a serious expression. She pondered for a moment and then said, “Okay, I will find time to try to persuade Amelia, but I am not sure whether I can succeed.”
“As long as you are willing to have a try, that’s fine by me!” Warren was -grateful.
In the evening, Rosalie brought up the situation to Jonathan. “I’m going to talk to Amelia tomorrow.”
“Are you going to persuade her to give up the baby?” Jonathan said. Frankly, he could understand how Warren felt. Back when Rosalie was still pregnant, the doctor said that it was necessary to perform fetal reduction to ensure her and her children’s safety. However, she insisted on not doing that.
Due to that issue, Jonathan and Rosalie were at an impasse for some time.
“I hope Amelia is safe and sound, but I also understand how hard it is for a mother to decide to give up the child,” Rosalie said. After all, she risked her life to bring the triplets into the world back then.
“Have you ever thought about what the man who loves you should do if you risk your safety to keep your children?” Jonathan murmured, “Much like how you’re willing to risk your life for the children, I’m willing to ignore their lives to protect you.”
Rosalie blinked and looked surprised.
“What? Do you think I’m not a good father?” He asked.
“It’s… No, I know you love me very much. However…” She hesitated and

said seriously. “If my children and I are in danger one day, I’ll still hope that you can save the children.”
As a mother, she was willing to sacrifice her life for the children.
He stared at her quietly, his eyes flashing slightly. Then he said slowly, “Okay.”
Though he uttered only one word, it was succinct. If the scenario she described ever came to pass, he would protect the children before following her to the afterlife.
He didn’t want to live in a world where she was dead.
For a moment, Rosalie seemed to understand what Jonathan meant. Her eyes were suddenly covered with tears. “You…” She choked but couldn’t speak, unsure if he was stubborn or stupid.
However, all that was because he loved her so much.
He loved her the most in the world.
“Thank you for loving me so much, Jon.” She stood on her toes and kissed his lips.
He responded to her kiss.
A lifetime wasn’t long enough to love her, he believed. If there was a next life, he would love her even more and protect her from the slightest harm.
The next day, Rosalie came to Amelia’s shop and found that Lillian was also there. Lillian was just there to chat with Amelia.
After all, Lillian stayed at home all day to take care of the baby and stopped working long ago. Every day, she just ate and slept. Sometimes, she would watch movies and television shows. It was really boring.
Seeing Rosalie coming, Lillian smiled and said, “What a coincidence. All three of us are here today. If there is another person coming, we can play poker. Although, there’ll be too many people for a poker game if we include our children. Heh, when they have their romantic partners in the future, we can have three tables of poker game.”
Amelia was amused by Lillian’s words. “Why do you think about poker all the time? Do you want to play a round?”
“A little. After my child is born, let’s play a few rounds of poker!” Lillian

looked at Amelia’s abdomen and said, “Amelia, where will you have your pregnancy checkup later on? Do you want to go to the hospital I am in now? My doctor is not bad.”
Amelia hesitated before answering, “No, I already have a contact at Women’s Health Hospital.”
Lillian didn’t think much about it, but Rosalie said, “Amelia, Warren came to see me yesterday.”
Amelia was stunned and looked at Rosalie.
“Warren asked me to persuade you to abort the child. He said that the risk is too high and it’ll affect your own safety. However, I want to hear from you if what he said is true,” Rosalie said.
Lillian was shocked and said, “What? It may be dangerous for Amelia to have the baby? What is going on? Is it because of Amelia’s age? Isn’t 40 years old still okay?”
Amelia looked at her worried friends and said frankly, “It’s not because of my age. It’s because I had a liver transplant. The doctor said that the later stage of pregnancy may affect the liver function of pregnant women, so my body may not be able to handle the stress.”
Hearing that, Lillian was worried. “In that case… Amelia, are you going to have this baby still?”
“Well, I’m not going to give up, at least for now.” Amelia said, “I’ll see what my doctor at Women’s Health Hospital says first before making a decision. As long as it is not necessary to abandon this child, I will bring my child into this world.”
While saying that, Amelia looked at Rosalie. “Rosie, didn’t you fight to keep your triplets in the past? You should understand where I’m coming from. It doesn’t matter who comes to persuade me. I won’t change my mind yet.”
Rosalie understood what Amelia was feeling at the moment. Hence, she said, “In that case, you have to promise me that if the doctor says it’s unlikely you’ll give birth to the child safely, you…”
“We’ll talk about it then,” Amelia interrupted.
At that moment, Lillian, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly frowned. She pressed her hand on her abdomen with one hand and looked at them in panic. “I think my water broke!

Her water broke without warning at all.
Both Amelia and Rosalie had given birth to children before, so they naturally knew what that meant.
Thus, Rosalie hurriedly said, “Get in my car. I’ll take you to the hospital now. Don’t worry. Get in the car later and lie flat as much as possible.”
Lillian nodded and took a deep breath. Rosalie and Amelia hurriedly helped Lillian get on the passenger seat and then put her seat flat.
