Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 741

On the night when Sharon's water broke, she was on the phone with Ariah. The two were chatting about the latest gossip and hypothesizing about their babies' gender.

Sharon wanted a girl and she had even decided on the name already.

On the other hand, Ariah wanted a boy because she was planning to have a second baby.

She wanted her first child to be a boy and the second to be a girl. In that way, the girl could have an elder brother to take care of her, as having an elder brother was what Ariah had wished for since she was little.

Just as they were talking passionately, suddenly, Sharon shouted, "Ah!"

Startled, Ariah quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"My, my water seemed to have broke just now!" But soon, Sharon had calmed down, as she had experienced this already when she gave birth to the twins. "Ariah, I gotta hang up now and go to the hospital. After I finish giving birth to the baby, then we can talk."

Ariah was amused to hear that. Nevertheless, she just urged, "Hurry up then!"

Hurriedly, Sharon hung up the phone, and standing there still, she yelled at Stanley, who was in the bathroom, "Honey!"

Stanley was taking a shower when he heard Sharon's steady yet a little panic-stricken voice. Worried, he quickly wrapped himself with a towel and came out. "What's wrong?"

In the meantime, leaning against the wall, Sharon took a deep breath and said, "My water has broken. Go and get ready."

Hearing that, Stanley was astounded and looked for his phone in a panic, but he nearly tripped himself.

When Sharon was giving birth to the twins, he wasn't by her side, so he had never experienced this situation before.

Soon, they got into the car. Holding Sharon in his arms, he could sense that she was drenched in sweat. She was in so much pain that she started to pinch his arm and then even bit his shoulder.

Seeing that, Stanley was very worried. His hands were trembling.

"Honey, please bear with it for a second. Well be at the hospital before you know it." He kissed her on the face, coaxing her softly. Nevertheless, his voice was slightly shaky.

On the other hand, Sharon cried out in pain, "I

can't! It's so painful!"

Stanley didn't know what to say because he apparently couldn't experience what she was going through right now.

Seeing that Sharon's face gradually turned white, he began to get even anxious, so he roared at Anthony, "Drive faster!"

Anthony was startled by his yell. Looking at the rearview mirror, he could see how scary Stanley was right now.

Stanley no longer looked like the steadied man he was at work.

And Anthony had never seen him like this before. It was as if he had completely lost his mind.

On the way to the hospital, Stanley had everything arranged already. As soon as they arrived at the hospital, the doctors and nurses that were waiting at the entrance came up to check on Sharon's condition.

"Hurry up and save her..." Stanley had completely lost his sense of propriety.

At first, the doctor was amused by him. But when he saw Stanley's chalky face, he finally said in seriousness, "Mr. Jones, don't worry. It is normal that your wife feels the pain because she's having episodes of Braxton Hicks contractions now."

Soon, they went into the hospital and Stanley stayed by Sharon's side while she was getting ready to deliver. During then, the nurses would come in to check on her condition from time to time.

When Jimmy and Ariah came over, they heard Sharon grunt in pain.

Sitting by the side of Sharon's bed, Ariah was a little scared to see how much pain Sharon was enduring.

It wasn't until the doctor said Sharon could enter the delivery room that Ariah let out a sigh of relief. They accompanied Sharon to the delivery room. Before the nurse pushed Sharon in, she turned to say to them, "Mr. Jones, I'm afraid you can't go in. Please wait here..."

But before the nurse could finish her words, Stanley interrupted her, "Disinfect me. I have to go in with my wife."

"But..."

Having no choice, the nurse went to ask for the doctor's permission, to which the doctor agreed upon some consideration. "Alright, take Mr. Jones to change his clothes."

It was rare to see such a loving husband, so the doctors did not force him to stay outside. Besides, the rules now were not as strict as before and family members could be allowed in to accompany for labor.

In the end, Stanley went in whereas Ariah, Jimmy, and Anthony waited outside.

Upon coming out of Sharon's ward, Ariah had been looking a little pasty-faced.

Recalling how much pain Sharon was in just now, she started to wonder if she could take it.

It was also Jimmy's first time to experience this, so he was naturally worried too. Helping Ariah to sit down, he finally asked in hesitation, "Honey, do you perhaps wanna consider a C- section? It seems that having a natural delivery is much more painful."

They had discussed which kind of delivery method to get a long time ago.

And Ariah chose to go with the natural delivery. Now that she heard Jimmy had changed his stand, she glared at him and scolded, "We've agreed on this already. Why are you changing it now?"

Jimmy didn't want to make her angry. "Alright, I'll listen to whatever you say."

Leaning against his shoulder, Ariah looked at the red light of the operating room and muttered something to herself. Jimmy lowered his head to listen, only to hear that she was praying for the safety of Sharon and her baby.

Then, he just sat on the bench with her and waited. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Later on, Howard, who had gotten the news, came over with some hot drinks and snacks. "Have some snacks first. You need to replenish your energy."

Ariah didn't feel like eating, so Jimmy asked her to have some hot drinks instead, to which she barely took a few sips.

As time went by, everyone grew a little anxious.

In the delivery room, Stanley sat beside Sharon, holding her hand tightly. His expression was no better than Sharon's.

During the delivery, the doctor had been asking Sharon to push harder, which she did, and she felt as if she was going to pass out anytime soon. Yet, the baby still had not come out, and she was slowly losing her strength.

She could feel that Stanley was gripping her hand tighter and tighter, and he seemed to be saying something, but she couldn't hear him clearly anymore...

Before closing her eyes, she saw that his face was getting as white as a sheet as he looked at her in fear.

Just as she lost her conciousness, she felt that something came out of her uterus. Then, she heard a loud cry, but she had already used up all her strength, so she closed her eyes...

Seeing that Sharon had passed out, Stanley was frightened and he quickly stood up from his chair, calling out to her with a trembling voice, "Sharon!"

A doctor came to check on Sharon and asked him to calm down. But how could he be calming down?

Shortly, a nurse also came over, trying to divert his attention by asking him to look at the newborn. However, Stanley just said coldly, "Take the baby away first."

The nurse was choked speechless.

She didn't expect that he wasn't excited to see the newborn.

In fact, she was a little envious of Sharon. Right now, the man was obviously very concerned about his wife. After going through so many deliveries, this was the first time that she had seen a man accompanying his wife instead of going to see the newborn.

Before today, she had seen too many men who happily went to see their newborns rather than accompanying their wives.

But this man really doted on his wife.

With a smile, the nurse took the baby out.
