Chapter 1868: Welcoming New Life 3

Finn Morgan was quite perceptive and didn’t waste any time. After the kiss ended, although reluctant, he decisively let go of his wife’s hand.

With a deeply complicated emotion, he watched as the stretcher was pushed in, watched his beloved woman with whom he spent day and night disappear from sight, watched that heavy door tightly close...

Thus, Hailey Hale, for whom the next events were a first-time experience, with fear and anxiety, pain, and her own resilience, was pushed into the sterile delivery room.

For a young girl, childbirth can bring inexplicable fear.

That delivery bed, those shadowless lamps, those cold instruments, those unfamiliar doctors and nurses, all gave a sense of unease.

"First, help the woman up. Eva, go and check the cervix, I estimate it’s almost fully dilated."

"Okay, Dr. Su."

"Prepare for an ultrasound to examine the fetal position."

"Alright, arranging it immediately."

"Prepare the IV drip."

"Yes."

Dr. Su began putting on gloves, preparing for delivery, getting the essential tools ready.

"Dr. Su, the umbilical cord is wrapped around the neck twice," the doctor conducting the ultrasound reported.

Upon hearing this, the painful Hailey Hale immediately became fearful, "..." because she had previously searched online, knowing that many doctors, unwilling to take risks with umbilical cord around the neck, would opt for caesarean section.

And she, most dreaded a c-section!

"Doctor, what’s the situation now? Does it require a c-section?" She was frightened, tears instantly pooling in her eyes, the tension making her scalp tingle.

"No need." To her surprise, Dr. Su replied calmly, "We’ll be careful during delivery, don’t exert yourself foolishly, follow my guidance, that way you’ll retain strength, don’t be unable to help when the crucial moment comes, exhausting the child."

Hailey responded affirmatively, "Mm." Yet, she hadn’t completely relaxed.

An intense pain swept over her, "Ah——" Unable to restrain herself anymore, her body twisted with the pain, and she cried out loudly.

"Dr. Su, cervix is dilated to eight centimeters."

"Received." Dr. Su, while busy, glanced at Hailey, "Scream if it hurts, it’s really painful now, you’re strong, really, but screaming doesn’t mean you’re weak, just don’t exert yourself foolishly."

"Ah..."

"Ah!"

"Ah..."

Hailey’s contractions were continuous, she had no time to catch her breath, waves of pain coming in succession.

Soon, she was sweating from her forehead, tightly gripping her clothes, wishing to tear them apart...

This sort of pain, never experienced in her life, difficult to endure even for a second longer.

Outside the delivery room at this time, Everett Morgan was extremely anxious and tense, pacing back and forth, even more tense than when his wife was in labor.

Jasmine sat on the bench with her hands tightly clasped, her worried expression vacant, clearly lost in thought.

She was praying!

Her mind was filled with imagined scenes from the delivery room, with Hailey lying alone on the bed, she must be very scared?

Enduring intense pain, enduring nervousness and fear... alone bearing it all, it must be the loneliest and most helpless moment for a woman in her life.

As Hailey’s husband, as the child’s father, Finn Morgan’s inner anxiety was indescribable.

His heart and eyes were full of Hailey and the child, yet at the crucial moment, he couldn’t help at all.

A torturous half hour passed...

No news came from within the tightly closed doors, further intensifying his unease.

Already in intense pain from the moment she got out of the car, how could Hailey endure this half hour? How could she bear it alone with no one comforting her?

Finn was unable to stand still, becoming agitated, not knowing what to do, finally he reached out and punched the wall!

The heavy punch startled his father, both parents raised their eyes to look at him.

"I wish I could give birth for her!" Finn had his fist against the wall, his knuckles were slightly split, deep eyes filled with bloodshot, his breathing was heavy.

He was on the verge of losing reason, breathing heavily.

At this moment, the elevator doors opened, and finally, Paige arrived after being stuck in traffic, walking out of the elevator heading towards the delivery room!
