Chapter 1414
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear..
A tall figure bolted out of the elevator.
“Theo, where on earth have you been?” Balfour asked, his face as rough as a winter storm.
After seeing the man, Balfour immediately stormed over, grabbed him by the collar, and growled. “You bastard! You’ve finally shown up.”
Belinda also hurried over. “Uncle, Auntie is giving birth inside. You better get in there with her.”
Without a second thought, Theo shrugged off Balfour’s grip, quickly turned around, and pushed the door open to the birthing room.
A nurse quickly approached to stop him. “What do you think you’re doing? There’s a woman in labor in there. No outsiders allowed!”
“I’m the father of the child!” Theo exclaimed in a rush.
After hearing that he was the father, the nurse finally allowed him to pass. “The father? Why are you just arriving now? Hurry and get in there, but you need to change into sterile clothing before you can go near the mother.”
Theo didn’t have time to explain. He hastily went in, quickly took off his coat, put on the sterile suit and shoes, and then followed the nurse into the sterile operating
room.
From the hallway, he could already hear Ellinor’s weak moans. It seemed like she was out of strength.
His heart clenched as he quickly moved to her side, grabbed her feeble hand, and said in a deep voice, “Hang in there, sweetheart. Theo’s here!” Ellinor, covered in sweat, turned to look at him with disbelief in her eyes. Then she reached out and bit his arm, using all her remaining strength. Despite the pain, Theo didn’t even flinch. He knelt down beside her and whispered soothingly, “Don’t worry, I’ll be right here with you.”
Suddenly, they heard the sound of a baby crying.
The doctor, with practiced hands, held up a small, blood-covered baby and announced to Theo, “Congratulations! It’s a boy!”
Theo looked at the baby in the doctor’s arms as his eyes filled with the tenderness and excitement of a new father. But then his focus seemed to blur. The doctor found it strange that Theo didn’t respond. “Sir?”
Theo snapped back to reality, gently took the baby from the doctor, and then quickly turned around and walked out.
The doctor and nurses were stunned.
“Wait! Sir, the baby can’t be moved out yet.”
Just as the doctor was about to chase after Theo, a nurse suddenly shouted, “Doctor, look! There’s another baby coming out!”
The doctor immediately turned back. “Yes, it’s twins!”
With everyone else now alerted, their focus went back on Ellinor, who was still in labor.
After exerting all her strength and fainting, Ellinor managed to give birth to two more children.
“The second one’s also a boy. He’s very healthy.”
Doctor, there’s another one coming.”
“It’s been a long time since we’ve had triplets in this hospital.”
“The last one’s a girl. They’re lucky to have boys and a girl.”
