Chapter 2289

"You brat, are you telling me that you dislike it?" Maisie turned the baby in her arms toward him. "You'd better come up with the name that you want for your daughter in front of her right now. If she laughs, we'll name her using the name that you want. But if she cries, you'll just have to accept the fact that she'll be called Hope for the rest of her life."

Colton was dubious. "Can... Can she even understand it?"

Maisie waved her hand. "Whether Hope will understand it or not is the least of your worries. Go for it now."

Colton stared at the little girl, who still looked a little wrinkled in the swaddle, and seemed a little embarrassed.

'I'm not really competent when it comes to naming my own daughter.

He then looked at Freyja.

Freyja froze for a split second. "Don't stare at me. I can't think of a better name than Hope." Colton crossed his arms. "My sister's name is Daisie, named after the flower daisy. If I call my daughter Hope Goldmann, there will be one too many names in the family that are so commonly used in Zlokovia."

Maisie sneered. "Who told you she'll be called Hope Goldmann? I've already thought about her full name. It'll be Hopione Goldmann."

Colton refuted instantly, "If that's what you've come up with, I prefer Hopenie."

Maisie was a little confused by Colton's suggestion.

Freyja rubbed her forehead. "Hopenie sounds even worse than Hopione. I'd rather call her Hopione."

'Hopione Goldmann sounds rather innovative and is surely rarely used.'

Colton rubbed his chin and stared at his daughter for a long time. "What about Charm?" Maisie and Freyja were both shocked. "You're going to name your daughter Charm?"

"It's short for Charmaine, Charmaine Goldmann." Colton then took the tiny baby into his arms. "It means joy and delight. Doesn't that sound great?"

Freyja was stunned.

'Joy and delight, huh?"

Colton poked her tiny cheek gently with his fingers. "Mom, look, isn't she smiling?"

Maisie pouted. "What a time to give off such a brilliant smile. Okay, it seems that my hope for her to be called Hope has just gone down the drain for good."

Freyja suggested, "The baby's middle name can still be Hope, right?"

Maisie paused, then nodded. "That's true. Let's call her Charmaine Hope Goldmann then."

After Maisie left, the nurse carried the baby back to the nursery too.

Freyja leaned against the bed and looked at him. "Why are you here? Shouldn't the company be very busy recently?"

Colton sat in the chair next to the bed. "Can the company's affairs be more important than my own daughter?"

Freyja did not respond to that question.

Colton glanced at her. "You will be discharged soon, right?"

Freyja narrowed her eyes. "So what if I'll be discharged soon?"

He leaned back into the chair. "It's nothing important. We'll talk about it when you get discharged."

Her curiosity was piqued. "Why can't you just tell me now?"

Colton smiled. "I just won't tell you now."

Freyja lay back on the bed and turned her back to him. "I'm going to sleep already."

He laughed out loud. "You loved to sleep when you were pregnant and had slept so much back then. How are you still so sleepy after giving birth? If you continue to sleep so much in the future, you'll put on weight and become fat."

Freyja sat up immediately. "Colton Goldmann, what you promised me back then is all just you bullsh*ting, right?"

'He said he'd treat me better once I've given birth. What kind of horsecr*p was that? The first thing he did as soon as he came in was obviously argue with me!'

Colton smiled without saying a word.

Leonardo brought Gina's son to her, and she burst into tears and hugged him as soon as she saw he was safe and sound. "Amos, where have you been all these days? I've been so worried about you." Amos replied, "Mommy, I've been staying with a man. The man said Daddy was the one who let me stay with him. He was very kind to me and bought me a lot of toys."

Gina stroked his cheeks. "It's alright now, as long as you've come back safely. I'll never allow anyone to lay a single finger on you, never again."

After the long-awaited reunion, she asked Amos to go back into the house first and then looked at Leonardo. "Mr. Prichard, Ronald is nothing but a heartless man. I don't want to stay with him for another day longer. I wish to file a divorce against him as soon as possible."

'Even if I'm not doing this for myself, I have to do it for Amos.' Leonardo grinned. "Don't worry, we'll assist you with all the procedures."
