Gideon looked at Nell. Only after a long time did he realize that his body was subconsciously shaking.
He nodded his head.
Nancy was driving at this time and when she heard their words, she pursed her lips and pressed down on the accelerator.
Meanwhile, Nell told Gideon to call the family.
In any case, her water had broken, and even if the children were born, they would be premature. After all, there was more than half a month left till Nell was due.
Thus, they had to tell the Old Master and Old Madam about this, and to also call Sean and Cathy over.
Sean would be present as a backup in case of any accidents.
While Cathy came over so she could calm Nell’s mind.
It was better for Cathy to stay here than to be alone at home overthinking things.
Gideon listened to Nell and did everything she said.
After making the calls, the car arrived at the hospital.
Since he had called beforehand, there was already a stretcher in front of the hospital.
Gideon carried Nell on the stretcher and pushed it inside.
At the same time, Sean and Cathy made it there on time too.
Since there were professional obstetricians and gynecologists, all of whom were internationally famous, and it was not convenient for a man like Sean to go in alone, he did not enter.
He just stood outside on standby, in case of any problems.
When the door to the operating room closed, the red light above turned on, isolating everyone from the operating room.
Everyone could not help but feel worried and anxious.
Especially Gideon, whose hands were still shaking even now.
Seeing this, Cathy stepped forward to reassure him, telling him not to worry, and that Nell would be fine and the operation would be a successful one soon.
Yet until then, they had to steady themselves first!
Gideon nodded but even so, as a husband and father, how could he not be worried and anxious?
He originally wanted to go into the delivery room, but because Nell’s condition was urgent, it would have been too much of a hassle and delay for him to change into sterile clothes.
Thus, he was not allowed to go in.
At this point, Gideon could not say anything more. Everything was done according to what was most convenient for them.
With that, the group of people waited anxiously by the door.
At this time, inside the operating room, Nell had reached the most painful stage.
It was not her first time giving birth but she had never been in such pain before.
It was like her heart, liver, spleen, and lungs were being torn open.
Since her water broke but the cervix had not opened, the only option was to perform a cesarean section.
Soon, an anesthesiologist came to give Nell an anesthetic.
All the doctors and nurses were the best in the country. Though when Gideon learned that Nell needed a cesarean section, his face turned white.
Although the doctors repeatedly assured him that there would be no danger, just the thought of having to cut such a large opening on Nell’s stomach, he still...
Then, it was Cathy who made a quick decision and signed on behalf of Gideon.
“Gideon, don’t hesitate. You men don’t understand things like giving birth. We women know best. At this time, the more you hesitate, the more you won’t be able to make up your mind. Doctor, go ahead. I’ll sign the papers.”
Cathy was Nell’s mother, so she naturally had the authority to sign.
After a long time, Gideon finally came back to his senses and nodded.
“Alright, I’ll sign.”
After signing and at Gideon’s request, he changed into a sterile gown and entered the operating room.
Nell lay on the bed in the operating room.
Gideon walked over with heavy steps. Then, he held her hand and called out, “Nelly.”
At this point, Nell had already been anesthetized.
However, she was still conscious. Her pale face became even paler when she saw Gideon.
