Chapter: 2339
Mitchel smiled warmly and teased, "I said I wouldn't leave. Why are you acting more childish than the babies?"
He gently tickled her nose, playfully remarking, "Is it because you want to compete with the babies for attention?"
Raegan felt she should be reassured, but the unease grew into a persistent demon in her mind, impossible to shake off.
A nurse urged, "Ma'am, it's time to enter the delivery room."
Reluctantly, Raegan released Mitchel's hand, but her eyes stayed fixed on him, refusing to look away even for a moment.
Mitchel gently waved at her, and as she tried to wave back, the cold iron door of the operating room suddenly closed in front of her.
Then, she was placed on the operating table.
After a considerable wait, the babies were born.
The newborns' cry jolted Raegan awake. She opened her eyes to see two fuzzy little heads, adorable, bearing traces of Mitchel's handsome features, clearly destined to be heartthrobs.
Raegan was filled with joy. The operating room door swung open, and Janey burst in cheerfully. “Mommy, I want to see my little brothers!"
Landen held Janey gently, cautioning her softly, “Quiet, darling. Don't wake your brothers up..."
Janey looked at the little bundles in the crib and clapped her hands excitedly. "So cute! Oh, my brothers are so cute!"
Erick laughed and joked, “Janey, how about me taking your brothers home for a couple of days, huh?"
"No way!" Janey crossed her arms and pretended to be stern. “Erick, can't you give birth to your own baby?"
Erick burst into laughter. "I can't directly give birth to babies..."
Janey, still crossing her arms, puzzled, asked, “Mommy can have babies. Why can't you? Aren't you human?"
Erick was left speechless.
The room erupted in laughter at her innocent words.
Raegan, filled with love, observed the joyful scene before her but felt something was amiss. She turned to Janey and asked, “Janey, where's your daddy?"
Janey looked at Raegan, confused. “Mommy, what are you talking about?"
