The Contract Lover (Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray) novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97 Struggle to Shed Tears

In a casino with dim lights, Grace is gambling.

Her excited voice has lost its sanity. At the beginning of the evening she is lucky and wins hundreds of dollars, but later her luck gets worse and worse. She has less money and loses more.

"Grace, stop betting. Let's go back." Ryan grabs Grace's hand and wants to take her out of here.

Grace has lost a lot of money. If he doesn't pull her away, they will lose all their money! Nina is going to have a baby. She needs a lot of money. Grace's life is extravagant. They spend a lot of money to make a living. They are running out of money.

"Leave me alone!" Grace pushes Ryan's hand away. Her bloodshot eyes are fixed on the table.

Nina is alone in the apartment, packing up the things for labor. She touches the lovely little clothes and hats with her hands. Her heart is full of tenderness.

Baby, you are coming to the world soon. Mom is looking forward to you. I hope you are a healthy and beautiful baby.

Although you don't have a father, I will take care of you and give you all my love. Nina gently touches her stomach. Her face is radiant with maternal love.

All of a sudden, there is a dull pain in her lower abdomen. Nina is a little nervous. Is she going to give birth?

The doctor said that there is often false contractions when the due date is near, and Nina's tense mood is relaxed.

According to the doctor, Nina lies on her back and begins to count the contractions. At first she has a pain every half an hour. Then she has a pain every ten minutes. This is very consistent with the symptoms of childbirth!

But now she's the only one in the house! Nina's a little nervous. She grabs her cell phone and calls Grace.

The monotonous busy tone echoes in her ear, and no one answers the phone.

Then Nina calls Ryan but no one answers.

The loud music in the casino completely hides the ring of the mobile phone, and Grace is gambling excitedly. Ryan stands by her helplessly. They don't notice that the phone in the bag is ringing faintly.

The pain interval has become shorter and shorter, and Nina knows she's going to give birth. Nina gets out of bed and packs her bag. She puts the small clothes, milk bottles and maternity supplies neatly in the big bag prepared in advance.

The pain has become unbearable, and the sweat on Nina's forehead gradually turns into a big one and drops down her pale cheek.

Grace, where are you? Nina calls Grace again, but she still can't get through.

It's too late. Nina reaches out her trembling hand and uses her last strength to dial the emergency call from the hospital.

By the time Grace and Ryan get to the hospital, Nina is in the operating room.

"Doctor, how is my sister?" Grace asks, a little annoyed. She was winning but Ryan pulled her out of the casino. Nina texted that she was in the hospital and was about to give birth.

What a disappointment! She's not her own sister but she has to take care of her! She's losing all her money today. She doesn't know if Nina has anything else of value. She has to find a way to get some more money. Grace thinks.

The doctor says Nina will take a long time to give birth, and Grace and Ryan are watching TV in the hospital hall.

This is a hospital for Chinese women. Doctors and nannys are all Chinese. Even TV programs focus on Chinese news.

"It is said that the heir of Gray Family has returned to Chicago from City C and is ready to take over Gray Family's consortium in full. He has been in charge of business Gray Family in city C. This time he is recalled to Chicago by Grandpa Gray to choose a wife. President Gray is 27 years old and still unmarried. He is rich and handsome!"

The news is on TV. Several people waiting for the patient begin to discuss in a low voice, "the heir of Gray Family wants to choose a wife, which is actually Grandpa Gray wants to find a little heir for Gray Family earlier. Lucien has always refused to marry, and Grandpa Gray is eager to have a great-grandson!"

"Lucien?" Grace is listening carefully!

She hurries to the front and sits right in front of the TV, watching the news carefully.

It seems that Grandpa Gray really wants a great-grandson! Lucien's wife has to give birth to a small heir to Gray Family.

Grace is happy! She comes up with a plan! "Ha ha." Grace can't help laughing smugly! God is good to her!

Little heir? There will be a real little heir in the ward right away!
