The eight-month-old baby was quickly subjected to various emergency treatments according to the previous plan.
The child was successfully placed in an incubator.
However, Nancy didn’t know any of this. She was completely under anesthesia.
How long has it been?
Is she still alive?
What about the baby? Is the baby okay?
Everything about her body seemed so exhausted, exhausted enough to make her want to give up everything.
But there was always a voice calling out to her in her ear.
“Nancy, Nancy…”
It was…Mick calling her!
She couldn’t just fall asleep like this. She wanted to open her eyes, to see Mick, to see their child….
Nancy felt like she was using the greatest strength of her life to open her eyes.
Finally, light slowly poured into her eyes.
It was so bright that it was almost blinding!
Her vision was almost completely white, and it took a while for her to slowly see everything in front of her.
It was… a white ceiling.
There were also unfamiliar machines and medical staff in white coats.
“She’s awake, finally awake, that’s great!” She heard someone shouting happily.
F
She wanted to speak, to ask something, but her mouth was very dry and her body was so weak that she couldn’t even speak.
It was only after a while that Nancy learned that she was now in the ICU ward, and it had been seventeen days since she gave birth and had surgery.
Her awakening finally relieved everyone.
Seventeen days?
She had been unconscious for so long!
And what she was most worried about at the moment was, “Mick… Mick… how is he?” She used all her strength to say these words.
When the sound came out of her mouth, it was very light and indistinct.
However, the nurse understood and replied, “Mr. Mick is very worried about your condition. You waking up is really the best news for him.”
“… want… to see him…” She wanted to see that man, no matter what.
She had been in a coma for 17 days. What had he been doing during those 17 days?!
After saying a few words, Nancy became fired and fell asleep again.
When she woke up again, Mick was standing by her bed wearing sterile clothing.
He looked haggard and had lost a lot of weight, but his peach blossom eyes were shining with hope.
At this moment, she finally felt like she had survived!
And this man had survived too!
“I’m… sorry… for worrying you…” Nancy said weakly.
“Don’t apologize to me anymore!” Mick said softly. “I should be the one apologizing. You finally woke up, it’s really… really great.”
His voice became more nasal, as if he was about to cry.
“Don’t… cry.” Nancy said, because every time she saw his tears, she felt sad and heartbroken.
“I’m not crying.” Mick knelt down and gently held Nancy’s still damp hand.
Yes, he wasn’t crying. His beautiful black eyes weren’t shedding tears, but why did she feel like he was crying?
“How’s the child?” She continued to ask with difficulty.
“The baby is doing well, although still in an incubator. However, all indicators are good and the weight is increasing smoothly. In just over a month, as long as the weight meets the standard, the baby can leave the incubator smoothly.”
Nancy finally let go of her worries.
He and the baby were the most important people to her!
“I will…get better, wait for me…” These were the last words she said to him before she was too exhausted to keep her eyes open.
“I will wait for you and be with you.” His low and gentle voice sounded in her ear.
In the following days, Nancy gradually recovered her health.
Mick would visit her in the ICU every day, showing her videos and photos of their daughter.
By the way, she gave birth to a cute little angel, a baby girl.
Mick thought the baby looked like her.
Nancy couldn’t see the resemblance, as the baby was much smaller than a normal newborn. But she thought the baby’s eyes were very similar to Mick’s charming eyes.
Very beautiful!
If the baby inherited her father’s looks in other ways, then their daughter would be a great beauty in the future! Nancy thought to herself.
On the tenth day, she finally left the ICU and returned to a regular hospital room.
In the VIP single patient room, an extra bed was added besides the patient’s bed for Mick to stay overnight.
Nancy felt that her body was gradually recovering, and with the Reed family providing several specialized nursing staff for her, Mick didn’t need to stay overnight in the hospital room.
After all, she sometimes needed to change medication at night, and even groaned due to the pain and side effects of the medication, which could easily affect his sleep. It would be better for him to go back and sleep instead.
Mick hadn’t spoken yet, but after listening, Jasper quickly said, “Nancy, please don’t let my brother go back to sleep. If he goes back, he’ll definitely have insomnia! You don’t know, when you were in the
ICU, he would lie on the bed you slept in every night and hold your clothes to fall asleep!”
Nancy was stunned. She never expected Mick to do such a thing.
And Mick, who rarely showed his emotions, seemed a bit embarrassed. But Nancy noticed that his ears were…well, a bit redder than usual!
So, was he feeling embarrassed?
After Jasper left the ward, Nancy looked at Mick and asked, “Did you really…sleep in the hospital all those days, like Jasper said?”
“Hmm,” he replied softly.
“And you held my clothes?” she asked again.
“Hmm,” he replied again.
“Did you imagine the clothes were me?” she continued to ask.
His response seemed even quieter this time, “Hmm.”
“Look at me,” Nancy couldn’t help but say.
So far, he had avoided facing her and having a face-to-face conversation.
Silence was his only response.
“What’s wrong? Are you really feeling embarrassed?” Nancy asked curiously. The more he avoided her, the more she wanted to see his face.
Then she heard a sigh in her ear, “Okay, I am really feeling embarrassed.”
“Huh?” Nancy blinked and saw Mick turn his head.
On his handsome face, there was a noticeable blush!
Nancy was stunned, this was too…
“What, am I embarrassing you by surprising you like this?” Mick looked at Nancy’s stunned expression and asked.
“Yes, I’m surprised.” Nancy stammered, but what surprised her even more was “You look so…”
“So?” Mick frowned slightly, not understanding what she meant.
“So beautiful.” She finally managed to say.
He was taken aback, and the blush on his face became even more apparent!
Obviously, he didn’t expect her to say something like that.
Beautiful? Since he started middle school, it seemed like no one had used that word to describe him, although he had heard a lot of compliments about his appearance, and the word “beautiful” was more often used to describe women.
But hearing it from her mouth at this moment gave him a strange feeling.
“Beautiful? Do you think I’m beautiful like this?” He leaned down, his face close to hers.
“I think the way you blush is very charming.” Nancy said shamelessly.
“Can’t I make you feel that way when I’m not blushing?” He asked, his warm breath spraying on her face.
“Normally, of course… um, I’m also very moved, but I feel like you’re different from usual, and I haven’t seen this side of you before, so I’m especially… moved. That blushing face just makes me want to kiss you hard and take a bite…”
Nancy quickly explained, but as she went on, she started sweating profusely.
Oh my god, what was she even saying? Would he think she’s a pervert for talking about kissing and biting him?
“So, do you want to kiss and bite me?” He raised his hand and lightly touched her lips, and that handsome face seemed to easily evoke her deepest desires.
