Trapped with a Doctor -
Chapter 331 Extra Story No. 1 About Pauline Gu
With the whole family's blessing, Angela was ready to give birth to her baby.
This meant that Arvin would have a daughter very soon.
Members of Si family, such as Sven had stayed at Angela and Arvin's apartment for several days, waiting for the baby girl to be born. On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Angela began to feel a slight pain in her womb.
Arvin put a piece of moon cake that he had made by himself into Angela's mouth. But she frowned immediately as she tasted it.
This upset Arvin.
As a saying goes, nobody is perfect.
Arvin also had shortcomings even though he was excellent in most fields.
In appearance, figure, profession and power... He was perfect.
However, cooking was not one of his specialities.
In Angela's words, he was the destroyer of kitchens.
Arvin had tried to learn cooking when Angela was pregnant. But even under the guidance of Angela, he still failed.
That week, he had worked very hard to prepare the recipe before baking the moon cakes.
On the outside, they looked yummy in color and shape.
But Angela frowned as soon as she had a little bite.
When Arvin wasn't paying attention, Sven picked up a piece of moon cake quickly and ate it. "Wow! Arvin! You're so great! It's really delicious!" he said.
Hearing what Sven said, Arvin also picked up a piece and tasted it carefully. Then he himself had to admit that it was really good.
Angela frowned because she felt pain from her pregnancy. She figured out that Arvin must have misunderstood what she meant. She pointed at her belly and consoled him, "Look! I just frowned because of the pain, but I like the moon cake very much." She was confused.
Why was it that other women who were delivering babies as well didn't feel the same kind of pain like she did? Her pain got more fierce, so she had no strength to swallow the moon cake.
Sven saw Angela's expression as he ate the rest of the moon cake. He stood up immediately and told Arvin excitedly, "Your wife is about to give birth to your baby now!"
Arvin threw away the moon cake from his hand right away and told Angela, "Don't worry, honey! I'll be with you!"
Angela felt amused because she wasn't worried at all. Arvin was the only one who was so nervous!
Arvin's concerns and worrying were clearly shown in his eyes. Compared to his calm self in daily life, he looked like a different man.
Angela stood up with the help of Arvin and Sven. When she felt a little better, she took the chance to swallow the moon cake in her mouth.
It tasted delicious.
Sven was ready to hold Angela up but was stopped by Arvin. He cast a glance at him and held Angela up with his arms. Then he ordered Sven, "Open the door!"
Sven opened the door for him unwillingly.
Suddenly, Angela pointed at the table and said in a weak voice, "Sven..."
Now Sven got nervous too. He caught her hand and asked her, "How do you feel?
Tell me where it hurts. Does your womb hurt? Is the baby kicking?"
Angela answered, "Brother, I want to eat... the moon cakes."
It took almost a month for her husband to prepare the moon cakes for her. She didn't want to waste them.
Sven was speechless. He picked up one at random and brought it to Angela.
Arvin ran towards the gate of their apartment, carrying Angela. Angela bore the pain and told Sven with all her strength, "Brother... Bring them all with you, I'll take them all."
Arvin and Sven both lost their words. They felt ridiculous at how Angela could only think about the food at that moment.
But they had to follow her orders. Sven put the rest of moon cakes into a box and carried them to the hospital together with Arvin and Angela.
On their way to the hospital, Sven held her hand and said, "I've asked you to stay at hospital but you didn't listen to my advice. Now we have to hurry to the hospital from your house, which by the way, is very far from the hospital." Arvin felt very upset to see his wife in so much pain. But when he thought about their daughter would come into the world soon, he felt a lot happier.
Angela took a bite of the moon cake and said, "Darling... It's delicious."
Arvin had arranged the best ward for Angela in VVIP Department in advance just as he had done when Angela gave birth to their twins. But after one and a half days, Angela secretly left the hospital when Arvin was having a meeting.
She told Arvin that she felt very bored in hospital.
At the last stage of her pregnancy, Angela couldn't sleep well in the old house of the Gu Family, so she and Arvin moved to their own apartment.
Arvin gave up most of his hospital work and began working from home. If he had to have a meeting, he would attend it through video chat.
He did all that only to make sure that he could keep a close eye on Angeles's pregnancy.
Arvin was moved because Angela cared so much about the moon cake he had made for her even though she was suffering through a lot of pain. He grasped her hands and told her, "I'll make moon cakes for you every day after you give birth to our daughter, Pauline."
He said it in an affectionate tone.
Arvin decided their daughter's name without asking for Angela's permission.
"Pauline", he gave the baby its name.
In order to match the name, Arvin had changed all the bowls, plates, vases... and all the things made of porcelain in his house to the most delicate and expensive porcelain.*
(*TN: Pauline's Chinese name is related with porcelain)
Apart from his daughter's name, Arvin picked out everything, even her socks, for her.
He had prepared the best in the world for her.
Sven was driving them to the hospital as fast as he could. When they were waiting for a traffic light, he teased, "Arvin, when Pauline is born, can I...?"
"No!" Arvin refused Sven resolutely before he even finished his words.
Arvin had guessed what he wanted to say.
In the past few days that Sven lived there with the couple, apart from waiting on Angela to give birth to Pauline, the only thing he had been thinking of was bringing Pauline back to C Country for a few days. Sven rejected by patting the steering wheel and said, "I'm your driver now. Aren't you afraid that I will throw you out of the car?" He had never met another man who was as mean as Arvin.
Suddenly, Angela interrupted their bickering by letting out a scream, "Ouch!"
The two men got nervous immediately. Sven sped up and arrived at Yao Hospital soon.
At 8:00 p.m, the baby revealed itself with a loud cry.
Its loud voice suggested that it was a healthy baby, which got all their family members waiting outside the delivery room, excited.
Pauline came to this world at 8:00 p.m., August 15th in the lunar calendar.
She was very lucky to be born into such a rich and happy family. The first person she saw in this world was her father, a great man called Arvin.
Pauline's last name would bring her great power and countless wealth.
She had a lachrymal mole under the corner of her left eye. There was a romantic story about the lachrymal mole in China.
The lachrymal mole represented the fire of love. It was a sign formed when one was dying and his or her lover's tears fell on his or her face. In the afterlife, this lover would recognize him or her through this sign.
Once a woman who had a lachrymal mole came across the one she loved, they would be together with each other forever until their death. She would have paid for his tears with all her heart's love for him. Pauline's lachrymal mole was one centimeter away from her eye, which complimented her face greatly.
It was also a sign which demonstrated her uniqueness.
In another delivery room of Yao Hospital, a graceful and noble woman was also making an effort to give birth to her baby. Her voice had gotten hoarse until the baby's head came out.
She was the honorable queen of H Country, who had come to J City for unknown reasons.
Her husband hurried to J City as fast as he could because she hadn't gone back to H country when her expected date of child birth approached.
At 8:20 pm, the queen of H Country gave birth to a baby boy, the only prince of H Country's royal family.
At 8:30 pm, Arvin sent his daughter to Teresa who was waiting outside the delivery room. Then he returned to the room to accompany Angela.
After every family member had embraced little Pauline, Teresa and Daisy were ready to take her to have a bath. On their way to the sterile room, they saw two other women in refined clothes carrying a baby in the same destination as them.
Pauline burst into tears loudly when they got there. This seemed to have frightened the baby boy in the other woman's arms, and so he began to cry as well.
The sterile room got noisy all of a sudden due to the babies crying and the women's voices trying to console them.
The baby boy never stopped crying as Pauline didn't stop either. This confused the four women in the room.
Then they thought it was Pauline's loud voice which may have terrified the baby boy.
Angela recovered from her pregnancy very soon this time as it was her second time to deliver a baby.
On the fifth day after Pauline was born, Arvin told her that the queen and her husband was in the next ward and they would like to meet with her.
For most people, H Country wasn't a very famous country. The main sources of its finance were animal husbandry, mining industry and in-exhaustive fossil oil.
The people of H Country didn't get themselves into any conflicts with other countries. Besides, they almost had no relationship with any other countries except for some commercial cooperation.
The next ward got crowded with people as Angela entered with Pauline. The servants of the Queen wore the same clothes as the people of C Country and Shine Empire, but their appearances were different. Like all the honorable Queens, Hestia was graceful even if she was just in her pajamas.
Hestia greeted Arvin with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Arvin."
The servants followed her by putting their right hands upon their left breasts and lowering their heads. Then they said together, "Good morning, Mr. Arvin."
Arvin nodded his head and walked forward to Hestia, with his arms around Angela's waist. "Your Majesty, this is my wife, Angela. In her arms is our daughter, Pauline," he said. ☐☐☐☐
