Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1781 Jasmine Ouyang (Part Two)

"It doesn't matter when I came in. You just know that I've heard every word you said just now." Patricia

hissed and it was obvious that she was mad at Tom. 'How could Tom say that? He actually said I was

like a tigress? Was I that frightening?' The more Patricia thought about it, the angrier she became.

"Please, never think of that. I just walked into Edward's trap!" Tom explained frantically to Patricia,

desperate to keep his wife calm. Tom looked at Edward with pleading eyes. How much he wished that

Edward could speak nice things about him, but he totally forgot that Edward was actually a merciless

person who would do no such kind things. However, it would be useful to remember that Edward

showed mercy by not hitting when someone was down. It was just impossible for him to say nice things

about someone.

"If you didn't think so, how could you walk into his trap? What Edward did is just your excuse," Patricia

replied to Tom. Patricia gave Tom a sour look but soon enough, the cute baby in Justin's arms caught

her attention.

"Edward, please say something," Tom almost cried as he asked the man for help. Tom really flopped

this time. It mattered as it determined whether he would sleep in bed or on the couch tonight.

"I have nothing to say." Edward simply shrugged. 'What Tom has done is really meaningless. If I am

willing to speak nice things about him, I would have reminded him of her coming.' Edward chuckled to

himself amusingly.

"Justin, there's your sister! How adorable she is! Would you let me hold the baby for a while?" Patricia

asked Justin kindly. Patricia was itching to stretch her arms out and hold the baby, excitement evident

in her twinkling eyes.

"Of course I would. But you must be careful!" said Justin. Justin's arms still felt stiff as he dared not to

move when he held the baby for such a long time, so he had a little difficulty when he gave the baby to

Patricia. Finally, the stifling weight was gone and he could stretch his rigid limbs.

"I know that. You know I held Eden a lot when he was a baby," said Patricia. Patricia held the baby with

great care. Maybe it was a long time since she had held a baby in her arms, as she felt that she was so

small. The baby's large eyes stared up at her curiously and Patricia couldn't help but smile.

"I was a little worried that you would be a little rusty," said Justin. Now, Justin was only ten years old yet

he was already like an adult when he spoke.

"Don't worry! I will never hurt your sister," said Patricia, as she held the baby carefully and rocked her

back and forth a bit. She touched the baby's soft, little pink face. She thought that the little girl was like

an exact copy of her father.

Justin felt a little embarrassed as he watched how Patricia handled the baby. He scratched his nose

and smiled sheepishly as he felt that he was overly careful when he held her awhile ago.

A little while later, Daisy had woken up. Tom and Patricia already went away so when she opened her

eyes, the first people she saw were the two most important ones in her life.

"Justin," Daisy called her son's name. Her voice sounded very weak.

"Sweetheart, how do you feel? Are you all right?" Edward said as he got up. The moment he saw Daisy

wake up, he immediately rushed to the bed.

"Yes. I am fine," Daisy said with a smile. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

"Mummy, I am here." Justin answered his mother.

He came over too, at the other side of her bed.

"How long did I sleep?" asked Daisy, her voice still husky from just having woken up. She was

exhausted during the labor, and she felt that she had a long sleep.

"It was not too long. Only a little longer than three hours." Edward answered gently.

He gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek.

"Where is the baby? She must be hungry," Daisy asked, looking around in search of her little daughter.

She fed the baby with her breast milk the first time when taken out of the delivery room. However,

Daisy thought that after such a long time, she must be hungry again.

"Don't worry. The baby is fine. Mum has fed her some milk just now when she saw you were sleeping

soundly," Edward said with a smile. Cynthia came together with Jonathan in the room just a while ago.

Since she waited for Mrs. Wu to finish cooking up the soup for Daisy before she went away, they

arrived late at the hospital.

"Where is Mum? Has she returned home?" Daisy said as she tried to sit up, but she found that her

body was actually still quite weak. She then stopped trying and remained lying on the bed instead.

"No. She is together with the baby, who is bathed by the nurse now. I think they will be back in a

minute. Would you like something to eat?" Edward said. Compared to her body before pregnancy,

Daisy only gained a slight amount of weight. She did not gain much as most of the nourishment she

had eaten had been absorbed by the baby, who weighed as much as over three kilograms. Her

daughter was of the plump and heavy set.

"I will eat something after a while. I don't want to now," Daisy answered. She was not hungry at all but

she felt her breasts swell and hurt a little.

"Mummy, I'll go see if my sister is finished or not," Justin said quickly and left in a hurry. Justin decided

to leave deliberately as he knew his parents needed to be alone for a while.

"All right. Please don't go somewhere else," Daisy reminded her son. Although Justin was a smart

young boy who would never be lost in the hospital, his mother couldn't help but worry about him. To be

fair, Daisy was a parent after all and she cared a lot about her kids.

"Ok, I got you. Okay?" Justin replied. He quickly scurried away to the door as he gave his father a

meaningful glance.

"Justin has always been in a hurry. Why does he not slow down. The floor is very slippery." Daisy

murmured and then flushed into a deep shade of red when she caught Edward staring hard at her

swollen breasts.

"Sweetheart, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You did a lot for me." Edward said in a gentle

voice as he looked up at her eyes. Edward ran his fingers through her soft hair. Her hair was cut

shorter to make it easier for her pregnancy.

"So, you must be very nice to us from now on." Daisy said. Daisy was never the cutesy type of person,

although sometimes she played the sultry coquette. Most of the time however, she was open and

expressed herself in a straightforward manner.

"Of course I will be nice to all of you from now on till the end of my life! Actually, that's not enough. I will

be nice to all of you even in my next life as you are all my life," Edward said solemnly and made a

promise. He thought he would have felt ecstatic after the baby was born, but it was quite the opposite

when their baby arrived. He felt more guilty and heartbroken. He had missed many days of being with

his wife and family while she had patiently waited for him all along. Although she loved him so much,

she never begged him to return until he truly found his love for her, and finally came back to her at last.
