Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts novel Chapter 314

Hearing this, Ethan relaxed a bit. The little girl in his arms seemed to feel it, her eyelashes quivered slightly, then slowly opened her eyes. The nurse, seeing this, couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, this little girl is quick, she's opened her eyes already."

Ethan looked at the little girl in his arms, who had eyes identical to Ines's. He had to admit, it was a feature shared by all three members of the Galeana family. He marveled at the wonder of genetics.

At this, Ethan finally broke into a smile. On the side, Ines teased, "Ethan, you should take this chance to learn how to hold a baby. You can't even hold one properly now, what are you going to do when our child is born?"

Ethan didn't seem to care, but he was visibly more relaxed and even started to hum a lullaby to soothe Jasmine in his arms.

The nurse realized that she had mistaken Ethan's identity and awkwardly explained, "I'm sorry, I thought you were the father. It seems I was mistaken."

"No worries, he may not be her father, but he's family." Ines explained with a smile.

After Ethan held the baby for a while, Ines also wanted to hold her. At that moment, the nurse told Ethan, "Sir, I need to take the baby for a full check-up and then decide whether she needs to stay in the incubator. You can hand her over to me."

Ethan reluctantly handed the baby to the nurse, feeling suddenly empty.

Seeing his reluctant expression, Ines couldn't help but tease him, "Are you jealous?"

Ethan smiled, "Yes, I am. I wish our child could be born soon. I can hardly wait."

"Don't rush now. Newborns are cute because they don't cry or fuss. Wait till they grow a bit, two of them will definitely give you a headache." Ines said.

Ines gently stroked her belly. Despite her words, she was also very much looking forward to it.

"It's okay, all children grow up like this, it's called innocence. We adults can't even manage to be as pure as them." Ethan said with a smile.

"As long as you think so, you can't complain in the future." Ines said.

"I won't." Ethan promised.

Ines decided not to continue the discussion. Silas came to tell them that Emma had something to say to them and asked them to go see her. He would go check on Jasmine.

In the ward, Emma was resting in bed. Aside from being a bit pale, she didn't seem to have any serious issues.
