Chapter 890 Hannah's Arrival

It was 3 PM when Theodore and Hannah arrived in the Capital. While being safely escorted, Hannah walked past a special passageway to reach Lillian's ward.

As Lillian was breastfeeding the baby, she needed to stay outside to wait for a while. Then she heard Lillian moaning out of pain from inside. Hannah could tell how painful it must be as she had shared the same experience though she was lucky enough to suffer less pain.

Lillian's painful moan echoed in the air from time to time. Hannah looked around but she didn't see Oscar there.

Was he inside the room to stay by her side?

But Hannah didn't intend to figure it out. Meanwhile, a few nurses were standing outside the door. They seemed to be waiting for the moment to do a dressing change for Lillian. Both of them couldn't help sighing upon hearing Lillian continuously moaning, "What a challenging job for a mother to survive both the pain of labour and the pain of breastfeeding!"

"At least she got a nice husband who stays by her side. It would be torture if her husband were to be irresponsible."

"You're right. Commander in chief must be the greatest husband in the world. He had been guarding her side at the very beginning of her labour. I heard that Mrs Wells scratched his arm out of pain and he bled. But He didn't even let out a moan of pain. He kept on solacing her to encourage her."

"Yeah, I heard that as well. Look at those nurses tending the labour, they gotta be envious. I thought Mr Commander must be an unapproachable type to whoever else. I didn't expect him to be so tender when facing his beloved wife."

"He did something more than that! After the labour, Mr Commander has been staying with his wife. When the baby was crying at night, I saw it was Mr Commander who was feeding the baby on his own. He didn't even leave the baby to the nanny. Nor to Mrs Wells who is in urgent need to rest. I can tell how adept he is at holding the baby. I bet he must have signed for some babysitting lessons before the baby's birth."

"Gosh, he's so nice! I bet he must be fully scheduled. But he spared time to attend babysitting lessons? I feel like my husband is a good-for-nothing when compared to him!"

"The same as mine."

The two nurses kept on chatting.

Though they tried to lower their voices, Hannah still caught their conversation.

Theodore, who was fiddling with his phone, didn't seem to notice their words. Both the nurses were talking too attentively to notice Hannah's arrival. Thus they had no scruples about continuing with their gossip.

Meanwhile, Hannah was listening.

Not quite a while later did Lillian stop moaning. Then a nurse opened the door from inside. The two nurses who were talking just now hurried to enter. Meanwhile, Oscar walked out of the room.

As expected, he had been staying inside. Hannah remained composed as usual when seeing him, "How about her first time experiencing breastfeeding?"

Hesitant, Oscar then replied, "She's fine, I I suppose."

"Glad to hear that." Hannah smiled.

Oscar then turned to look at Theodore. His voice sounded reproachful, "Why don't you call me before arrival?"

"I don't see it necessary." Theodore was speechless.

Hannah shared the same opinion with Theodore. Thus, she felt a bit sorry for him. She didn't consider it necessary to be envious of Lillian. After all, she deserved to be tended. And Hannah didn't view it as something she got to evade.

"Is the baby there?" asked Hannah.

"She's sleeping after breastfeeding." Said Oscar.

"Can I go to see her?"

"Just wait for a few minutes. The nurse is doing a dressing change on her wound."

"Was that a natural labour?" asked Hannah.

"Yes."

"It gotta be hurt." Hannah simply commented.

Oscar took a look at her.

"I mean, she's brave." Hannah smiled.

Oscar nodded, "Yeah."

"How much does the baby weigh?" asked Hannah.

She was trying to escape from embarrassing silence by bringing up new topics.

"About seven pounds."

"Well, that sounds healthy enough."

"Yeah, the doctor made the same comment. And the baby is healthy in all physical aspects."

"Glad to hear that." Hannah smiled.

While they were talking, the nurse walked over.

"Finish?" asked Oscar.

"Yes, Commander." Replied the nurse respectfully with a blushed face.

"How about the wound?" Oscar continued to ask.

"It's under-recovery."

"Mhm."

Then the nurse walked away after paying a bow with respect.

"Am I free to enter?" asked Hannah.

"Yeah, and I told her that you are coming today. She said you're greatly welcome." Said Oscar.

Hannah smiled decently to reply.

Then Oscar led her in. It was a deluxe suite inside the hospital. Upon entering, she saw a great living room, next to which there was a nicely-equipped kitchen. Undoubtedly, it allowed the patients living here to have their cooks catering for them. Then she saw Max busy cooking.

As she was living with her parents these days, she didn't know that Max was now working here. Max bowed to her respectfully, "Ms Cooper, welcome."

"You start working here?" asked Hannah amicably.

"Yes, Madam told me that she likes my dishes...so..." Max hurried to explain.

He looked a bit embarrassed. After all, it was he who had been serving her before that. But now he was asked to be serving Lillian.

"It's okay." Hannah smiled decently. There was barely any sign of emotion shown on her face.

Oscar then took her into a large room where the patient was kept, all directions of which were French windows. Though there was some medical equipment, the decoration here was the same luxurious as those suites inside a five-star hotel. Besides, this room allowed an overall view of the city from a great height.

In the middle of the room, there set a queen-size bed with pink bedding. Lillian was sitting up with her back leaning against the headboard, smiling.

Lillian looked haggard at this moment.

"Hannah, welcome." Lillian greeted friendly.

"Hi, where's the little sweetheart?" Hannah smiled.

"Oscar had just coaxed her into sleep. She's now sleeping in the crib." While speaking, she pointed at the pink crib beside her.

The way she behaved looked innocent.

"Okay." Hannah simply ignored the overtones hidden in her response.

She then walked over to the crib and carefully lifted the mosquito curtain.

An adorable baby girl born two days ago was sleeping soundly. Her face looked ruddy but chubbier than Hannah's son's. Though she was just a baby, she looked a bit like Cian.

Of course, she had never doubted if Cian was the father of the baby. But she somehow felt relieved after having it confirmed.
