Old Mrs. Hart said she wants to give her dowry jewelry to her granddaughter, while Old Mr. Hart wants to give a villa worth billions directly. Additionally, he also said he wants to give Valda a red envelope worth 1 billion.
One billion?!
Valda thought she had misheard and stared in shock at the old Mr. Hart and the old Mrs. Hart. “Um… Dad, did you say one billion?” Valda hesitated and asked.
“If you feel it’s not enough, then add another 10 billion,” said the old Mr. Hart.
“Yes, yes, your father and I will each give 1 billion, and we’ll give two red envelopes.” Mrs. Hart quickly said.
Valda feels like she’s about to faint.
Before, she didn’t faint when giving birth, but now she has an impulse to faint.
Does she know that the Hart family is so wealthy that they measure their wealth in billions?
“No, it’s not too little, it’s too much. You don’t have to give me such a big red envelope. How about you give me a few… ” Valda originally wanted to say tens of thousands, but considering the Hart family’s wealth, it seemed a bit inappropriate to say that. So she said, “How about a million? It’s just a token of appreciation.”
One million, in her opinion, is already a lot.
But the old Mr. Hart and the old Mrs. Hart immediately rejected it, saying “One million, that’s not enough!”
“Yes, Valda, don’t feel sorry for our money. After all, our money will eventually belong to you and Brian.”
“Yeah, you are a great contributor to our Hart family. That’s settled then, 2 billion!”
Valda looked at her in-laws and then turned to Brian lying on the hospital bed. 2 billion… This is too exaggerated!
Brian said, “Since it’s something your parents want to give you, you should accept it. That way, your parents will also be happier.”
“Well…”
“If you still refuse to accept, there’s a chance that my parents will increase the price,” said Brian.
Valda’s head started to ache at the thought of this, so she turned to the old Mr. Hart and the old Mrs. Hart and said, “In that case…I’ll just thank my parents.”
“Just take it.” said Mr. and Mrs. Hart with a smile, as they turned their attention back to their well-behaved granddaughter, unable to take their eyes off her.
Lisa rushed to the hospital after finding out that Valdis had gone into labor and was admitted in the middle of the night.
As a gift for the newborn, she used her own savings to buy a small gold charm to bless the child with safety and longevity.
Although the item Lisa presented was not worth much money, Valda still cherished it greatly. To her, it was a strong expression of Lisa’s emotions.
Lisa also gave Valda a big red envelope for good luck.
The money inside was all saved up by Lisa, and Valda felt grateful in her heart. “Godmother, thank you!”
“You, just being able to safely give birth to the child is good enough. I’ll go back to the church later to say a prayer and thank God for his blessings,” said Lisa.
“Okay, let’s go worship together,” said Mrs. Hart, the elderly woman.
Old Mr. Hart also agreed, “Yes, let’s go together to pay our respects and fulfill our wishes!”
Next, the relatives of the Hart family, including their friends Mr. and Mrs. Hart, as well as Brian and
Valda’s own friends, gradually learned about the birth of their daughter. They came to the hospital to congratulate the Hart family on their new little princess.
Valda’s hospital room is quite lively.
Fortunately, the VIP ward is spacious and divided into two rooms.
The inner room is where Valda rests, while the outer room is for visitors.
Therefore, although many people come to visit, it is not too noisy for Valda.
However, because the child needs to drink milk every 2-3 hours,
Valda’s sleep is not good. Sometimes she is extremely tired, but still has to feed the child.
Fortunately, there are specialized caregivers and nannies, so
Valda feels much more relaxed compared to ordinary mothers.
Brian has become a 24-hour personal caregiver, rarely leaving
Valda’s side unless necessary. Even at night, he sleeps on a cot next to Valda’s hospital bed.
And every time Valda feeds the baby, Brian also wakes up to keep her company.
Valda felt sorry for Brian as she looked at his clearly exhausted face. “Actually, once you fall asleep, you don’t need to wake up specifically to keep me company. When I feed the baby, there are caregivers and nannies around, so there won’t be any problems.”
She just wants him to be able to sleep a little longer.
“I’m worried, if I can keep an eye on things, I’ll feel more at ease,”
said Brian. “Besides, you just had a baby and you’re going through so much, how can I sleep soundly?”
While speaking, Brian took Valda’s hand and said, “When you were giving birth, I watched you in pain, but I couldn’t take that pain away from you. I felt so powerless at that time. I couldn’t feel your pain, but at least I hope I can share your hardship and experience it together with you.”
Valda stared at the man in front of her, who always managed to break down her defenses without even trying.
Although her godmother and mother-in-law repeatedly reminded her not to cry during her postpartum confinement, she couldn’t help but feel her eyes welling up with tears at this moment. She felt as though the tears were about to spill out.
He saw her red eyes and the watery layer in her eyes, and quickly said, “Don’t cry. I didn’t say these things to make you cry.”
“Then why did you still make me feel so touched?” she complained.
“Okay, it’s my fault,” he said, gently kissing her fingertips.
The child fell asleep because he had just finished eating. As a newborn baby of only a few days old, he basically eats and sleeps all day long.
“After the baby was born, his/her eyes haven’t opened yet. We don’t know when they will open,” said
Valda.
“After a week or two, the baby should open its eyes,” Brian said.
“How do you know? Did you ask the doctor?” she asked.
“No, but my mom said I was like that when I was born,” he replied.
Hearing this, she felt a little relieved. “I wonder who the baby will look like,” she said.
Since the baby was only a few days old and hadn’t opened its eyes yet, it was hard to tell who it resembled more.
However, the baby had a lot of hair and red skin. According to
Lisa, the redder the skin of a newborn, the whiter it will be in the future.
“I hope she looks like you,” Brian said. Although he didn’t mind who the baby looked like, he secretly hoped that she would resemble his wife more.
The thought of having a little Valda made him inexplicably excited.
Valda suddenly felt like laughing. Both she and her husband hoped that their baby would look like each other.
“Don’t waste your good genes. I want a baby that looks like you.
You were so cute in your childhood photos,” she said.
Valda is very envious of her mother-in-law. If she were a mother-in-law herself, she would probably be hugging and kissing her adorable son all the time and not want to let go.
According to Brian’s grandmother, he was a cold child and since he was able to understand things, he particularly disliked his grandmother’s hugs and kisses. If his grandmother used a “firm”
approach to hug and kiss him, he would look very unhappy, making it difficult for his grandmother to continue.
However, Valda thinks that her mother-in-law wasn’t persistent enough in her efforts at the beginning.
Brian’s personality may yield unexpected results if he persists in his pursuit.
“Then you can take a look at my childhood photos, it’s the same thing,” said Brian.
Valda was a bit speechless, how could they be the same!
“By the way, should we come up with a way to return the red envelope that was given to us by my in-laws? The amount is too big and it makes me nervous. I’m afraid that my bank account might get hacked,” Valda said.
“Since they gave it to you, it’s yours. Why return it?” said Brian.
“But, such a large sum… I’ve never had this much money in my entire life, I don’t even know what to do,” said Valda.
However, after she finished speaking, she was met with his strange gaze.
“What’s wrong?” She didn’t say anything wrong, did she?
“You said you’ve never had this much money in your life?” Brian asked with a smirk.
“Yes,” Valda nodded.
“Do you know how much you’re worth now?” he asked again.
“20 billion?” She hesitated for a moment.
“300 billion,” he said, spitting out a number.
Valda was stunned, staring at Brian, wondering if the number he said was the same as what she thought, or if there was a misunderstanding between them.
“Me – 300 billion? It took Valds a while to ank
“Yes, we’re married, so half of my death naturally belongs to you,” Brian said.
“But… isn’t that premarital property?” she asked.
“Do you remember the documents we signed when we got married? So there’s no such thing as prenuptial property between
1. My half, whether it’s before or after marriage, is yours,” Brian smiled.
Valda was stunned. She remembered signing a bunch of documents, but she didn’t ask what they were for. She thought they were just part of the wedding process!
But she didn’t expect that he had given her half of his property directly.
“So, this 2 billion is not all of your current assets. Just keep it well. It’s my parents’ way of showing their love, don’t think too much of it,” he said.
