I listened to Marcia and couldn’t help but feel happy for Ming.
Fortunately, he turned around.
Fortunately, he came back to Marcia.
He came back to the woman who loved him.
Ming hired Arthur as a defense attorney.
I asked Sean. It seemed that Ming did imprison Erin for a while, but he soon released her.
But after that, Erin asked Ming for money. Ming gave her some money, but Erin ran out of money and
called the police.
She wanted Ming to give her money in this way.
I listened to Sean and realized that Erin was naive.
If it was true, someone may help her. But she exposed the video and everyone knew they were lovers.
Now no matter what she said, no one would believe it.
Erin had no money and could only hire junior lawyers.
She lost the case directly three months later.
Erin wanted to appeal, but she really had no money. All kinds of evidence were against her, so Erin
could only withdraw the lawsuit in the end.
Soon after Ming’s case, I was about to have a baby.
Sean worried about me and put me in the hospital first.
On the afternoon of December 31, I began to ache and was soon sent to the delivery room.
Maybe because I had a baby and my daughter was petite. I gave birth smoothly and she was born
within half an hour.
When the baby came out of my stomach, I heard the doctor say, “0:01 on January 1.”
The doctor and I laughed.
The doctor cut off the baby’s umbilical cord and wiped her clean. She wrapped her in the prepared
sheets and put her in my arms. She smiled and said, “look, she was born in the new year.”
“Yes.” I nodded.
The girl in my arms had a lot of hair and it was dark and shiny. Her big eyes were now open. She saw
me and was curious and burst out laughing.
I froze and smiled.
The doctor said, “I saw many babies a day, but there are not many babies who laugh. A baby that
laughs at birth is smart.”
After listening to the doctor, I smiled and said, “she is like her father.”
When everything was done, my daughter was sent to the ward, and I was pushed out of the delivery
room.
Sean was waiting outside. When he saw me, he immediately came up to me and grabbed my hand and
said, “honey, thank you.”
“I have a quick delivery.” I smiled.
“Mom, where is my little sister?”
Lester was obviously eager.
Only I came in, so he tilted his head and was worried.
I patted him on the head, “babies need to be observed after birth. You can ask Dad to take you to see
her.”
“No, Grandpa will take you.” Sean took me and didn’t want to leave. He gave the job to Simon.
Simon was willing, of course.
He took Lester and Monica.
About an hour later, the baby finished the examination and was placed in a special crib for newborns
and pushed in.
When I gave birth to Lester, Sean wasn’t there. When he saw Lester, Lester was four years old.
He had never seen such a small baby.
When Sean saw our daughter, he froze and hid his hand directly behind him.
He didn’t want to hold her.
I didn’t speak. I took our daughter from the nurse and held her. I handed her to Sean and said, “no?”
He was embarrassed. “I can’t.”
I said deliberately, “President Jessop, you can solve any problem in normal times. Why are you afraid
to hold your daughter now?”
At first, my words worked for Sean. He rubbed his hand and reached out, but the baby was not much
longer than his palm, so he immediately took back his hands, “I’m afraid I will hurt her.”
“Don’t be afraid.” Monica said, “don’t you hold her in the future?”
“She will grow up soon.” Sean was a little embarrassed.
For the first time, I saw Sean like this.
Before today, he must have thought that there was nothing he couldn’t do in the world, but now he
looked at the baby and surely found that there was something he couldn’t do.
“She won’t grow up soon.” Monica took the baby and handed her to him, “hold her.”
Sean’s legs were much better now. He could stand or walk for a short time.
He looked at our daughter and seemed to be in a dilemma.
He held his hands in the air but hesitated for a long time.
“I’ll hold her!” Lester was eager. “Dad doesn’t dare to hold her, but I do.”
Then he reached out and tried to touch her.
Monica dared to let Sean hold her, but dared not let Lester hold her. She said to Sean, “hold her, or
your son will despise you.”
Sean was forced and finally reached out and held the baby in his arms.
He held her with two hands and as if he were holding something.
Monica corrected him. “The baby will feel uncomfortable.”
With her help, Sean adjusted several times before finally finding the right posture.
When he held the baby in his arms and looked down at her.
Our daughter woke up and stared at him and smiled.
Sean had been nervous. He saw her smile so he smiled too.
Lester held his little sister after I agreed.
We discussed our daughter’s name before. Everyone had different ideas. Something happened to
Ming, so we hadn’t named her yet.
But we changed Lester’s name.
According to the genealogy of Jessop family, Lester was renamed Nicholas.
His nickname didn’t change.
Now our daughter was born and couldn’t live without a name, so we named her on the spot.
I held her and looked down at her and said, “she was born in the new year. Let’s call her Emily.”
“Emily.” James came as soon as I finished.
He was supported by a nurse.
“Grandpa.” Sean turned to look at him.
James nodded. “That’s a good name.”
Emily was a warm name.
Now that James agreed, I was relieved.
“And her official name?” Simon asked.
“Elva.” James said, “I think the most important thing for people now is to be happy. Nothing else
matters.”
Now that James had decided, there was no objection.
But I thought it was a good name. I nodded. “I agree.”
Sean didn’t say no. “Okay, that’s her name.”
We agreed, so did Simon.
“Emily, Emily! I’m your brother!” Lester shouted happily.
