Chapter 279 : Adding a child
The car entered the boundary of the Royal Garden and upon arrival at the guard post, Kaley’s car was once again stopped, and the formulaic tone of the armed police on duty coldly informed that no outsiders were allowed to enter without the permission of the military commander.
“I’m not an outsider, I’m Army Chief Grant’s own sister!” Kaley was filled with anger that wanted to tumble out. “When did the rules come down.”
“This morning.” The armed police officer on duty turned around and handed over a notice. “Please read it.”
Kaley was furious, and shook it off in anger, checking the contents carefully.
The notice was issued by the Security Division, stating straight away that there was a mysterious killer in the city, requesting that the security of the Royal Garden Villa be increased, and that no one who did not live on the hill was allowed to enter without formalities.
Kaley gritted her teeth in hatred. If she was stopped by Bruce at the old mansion because he was bent on protecting Lindsey, then to be stopped at Nine Lakes Mountain and then here, it was basically certain that it was Old Mr. Grant’s idea.
That’s her father, the father of words and thunderous methods!
With a cold laugh, she returned the notice and was about to turn around when she saw her son limping down the mountain with a duffel bag.
The heart thumped, and Kaley’s blood instantly froze.
Since her father was so desperate for Lindsey, who was unknown to her, she had nothing to worry about! Thinking of Kayden, who was still at the Newport Institute, Kaley’s eyes were filled with killing intent.
If she is so unkind, then don’t blame her for being unrighteous!
The sky was getting darker and darker, and after a gust of wind, it started to rain.
Lindsey woke up with a start and saw Bruce still lying on his side, with his sleeping face stretched and a gentle smile gradually appearing on his face.
Just looking fascinated, Bruce abruptly opened his eyes, targeting her lips with a precise kiss …
When the two of them came out of the bedroom, more than an hour had passed, Lindsey’s lips were slightly red and swollen, and the pink color had a jelly-like moist texture.
Bruce kissed her forehead and smiled mutely. “You sit down for a while, I’ll go check the menu for the evening.”
Hearing him say food, Lindsey’s face instantly reddened a few more points, sullenly don’t look at him.
Bruce laughed at this and got up to go to the kitchen with a happy body and mind.
It was still early for dinner, and after looking at the menu, Bruce looked out the door at the incessant rain and couldn’t help but feel a little worried.
During lunch, Edward said that the flight base had purchased two more helicopters with good performance, and he wanted to take Lindsey to see them, but the weather was not beautiful.
Lindsey closed the magazine in her hand and looked at him with a long sigh, so she was curious. “What are you sighing about?”
“I wanted to take you to the flight base to test fly the new plane, but unfortunately it rained.” Bruce looked disappointed. “Only if and when the weather is nice and it happens to be a weekend.”
“For the sake of your son’s safety, forget it, I’m not really interested right now.” Lindsey leaned over lazily. “Give me a shoulder squeeze.”
Bruce smiled and nodded, adjusting his posture to make it easier for her to lean more comfortably, and had just given her a few squeezes when the phone he had left on the coffee table rang.
Lindsey casually brought the phone over to him with a light smile on her lips.
Bruce glanced at the number and saw that it was Charlotte calling, enough to hook the corners of his lips and slide open the answer button: “Sister.”
This end Charlotte smile freely, clearly with a few gloating flavor. “The third aunt went to the imperial garden was stopped by the guards, you did this, right?”
Bruce raised his eyebrows and smiled back. “How is it possible, I have no such ability.”
Charlotte staggered. “Don’t pretend, it’s not how your grandfather got so angry, I heard from the head logistician over there that Burton got kicked off the mountain and will have to leave B City after a while.”
“That’s a good thing, he’ll only get into trouble if he stays over here.” Bruce’s laugh grew pleasant. “Where are you?”
“Hospital, surgery this afternoon.” Charlotte’s silvery laugh came through. “You’re going to have a nephew soon.”
Bruce was overjoyed at the prospect. “Lindsey and I will be right over. Uncle and the others are here, right?”
Charlotte replied with a smile and told him to remember to tell Lindsey to put on more clothes and hang up the phone.
Bruce put away the phone and happily picked Lindsey up. “Sis is having a baby, let’s go check it out.”
“Okay.” Lindsey nodded meekly and let him carry her back to her room to change her clothes.
The rain is still falling, Lindsey little bird snuggled in Bruce’s arms, gaze gentle car window receding buildings, smiling: “Sister this child is not easy to come, I really hope they are safe mother and child.”
“It will be safe, in order to ensure that the operation is not accidental, specially waiting for the hospital’s well-known experts from the field back.” Bruce unconsciously pinched her ears. “You should also pay some attention, this time grandpa is really angry.”
Lindsey knew he was referring to Kaley’s affair and skimmed her lips, sort of agreeing to it.
She was always careful, it was just that some people couldn’t tell the difference, and she couldn’t help it wasn’t she.
When they arrived at the hospital, they got out of the car and went straight to the elevator to the obstetrics department.
In the ward, Aidan and his wife and Mack’s parents were there. Bruce stayed outside in the living room while Lindsey went inside the ward.
“Sis, how are you feeling.” Lindsey took it upon herself to move a chair and sit over there, naturally checking her pulse. “Have you done all the tests?”
“I just did, I’m going to the operating room, the doctor just left.” Charlotte looked at her with a smirk. “You have to take care of my nephew, whatever he is, whoever wants to mess with you, just shoot him.”
Lindsey agreed with a bitter smile and withdrew her hand, her eyes lingering for a second on her high, bulging belly, and instantly felt that the remaining months were very long.
She was only two months old now, and other than the occasional pregnancy vomit, she basically couldn’t feel the baby the rest of the time.
After talking, the doctor came over to take Charlotte to the operating room. Lindsey gave her blessing, went out and joined Bruce, and went upstairs with the doctor to wait outside the operating room.
The people in the ward basically went up, Mack nervous standing nor sitting nor sitting, cold face suffocated red.
Lindsey saw the situation and could not help but ask Bruce if he would be worried if he was giving birth.
“Nonsense, if I were my brother-in-law, I would definitely want to follow up with the operating room to go.” Bruce lowered his voice, just finished to see Mack barged into the operating room, instantly smiled. “Can’t really say that.”
Lindsey smiled back and quietly held his hand, waiting for the results.
After about half an hour, Old Mr. Grant and Jack suddenly appeared, and everyone got up to greet them.
Mack’s parents probably didn’t expect Old Mr. Grant to pay so much attention to this child, they were so nervous that they couldn’t speak, and Lindsey looked at them with joy.
Bruce saw Lindsey’s expression and the corners of his lips lifted unconsciously.
After waiting for another half hour or so, the nurse pushed open the door of the operating room and was happy to tell Charlotte that she had given birth to a boy, weighing 7 pounds and 8 taels.
Old Mr. Grant was also in a good mood and said a few good words with a smile.
A few moments later, Mack came out with the baby in his arms, looking unusually excited.
“Let’s see.” Old Mr. Grant was the first to reach out and carefully carry the dinky baby over, smiling and examining it for a while, saying, “This kid is quite capable of tossing and turning, he will definitely be a generalist in the future.”
The parents of The Roderick family thanked Old Mr. Grant and asked him to give them a name.
Old Mr. Grant handed the child to Mack, smiled and waved his hand. “I am a great-grandfather, and this boy is one of your The Roderick family, so naturally you have to give him his name.”
The Roderick family was delighted to hear this. They had been worried since Charlotte’s pregnancy that the child would be born to The Grant family, but when they heard Old Mr. Grant’s words, they were as relieved as if they had taken a pill.
Old Mr. Grant where will not be able to see this point of mind, wait for the baby in the hands of the people over a circle, and hugged and left the hospital early.
Lindsey and Bruce accompanied Mack to see him off, went back and waited for Charlotte to come out of the hospital room, and stayed for a while before going downstairs.
Back in the car, Lindsey couldn’t help but feel heartbroken when she thought of Old Mr. Grant. “Grandpa must have wanted to name his great-grandson, but unfortunately Sister’s baby’s last name is Roderick.”
Bruce reached over and hugged her to him, his palm pressed against the small of her back, rubbing it tenderly. “It’s okay, he’ll be happier when you have the baby.”
“It’s going to be a long time …,” Lindsey collapsed, leaning sullenly into his arms. “I was especially eager to go with the army, but now that I’ve seen Grandpa like this, I’m a little intolerant again.”
“I can’t bear it either.” Bruce coaxed her comfortingly. “But Grandpa sure doesn’t like it when I hesitate and don’t do things right.”
Lindsey thought about it, but it would be the end of the year when he finished his training, so maybe things would change by then.
When she got home, the kitchen was ready for dinner. Lindsey washed her hands, but Hector and Larissa weren’t back, so she called.
After a few moments of conversation, she learned that they were both in the hospital and subconsciously asked, “Who’s been in an accident and why haven’t I heard anything about it.”
“Bruce is not back until the weekend, and I couldn’t bear to disturb you.” Larissa’s voice shook a little. “But it’s really, really bad right now, Edward is on his way and there are hundreds of reporters gathered downstairs.”
“What the hell is going on!” Lindsey was so anxious that she subconsciously raised the decibel. “Tell me what’s going on first.”
After yelling there was a second of silence, Larissa’s incoherent voice came through again. “A child undergoing heart surgery suddenly fell into a coma, we received the news and rushed over first, I don’t know who informed the reporter.”
Lindsey’s brain rumbled, instructed two sentences that hung up the phone, hurriedly pulled Bruce out. “Go to Fu Wai Hospital right away.”
The children in this batch were in very serious condition, so they were sent directly to B City for surgery.
If something went wrong, she would never forgive herself in this life.
“You have to eat your meal even if you are in a hurry.” Bruce pulled her to a halt and pushed her hard into a chair. “The child, doctor will do his best to rescue, you can not help now go over.”NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
