Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 487

Nell looked at Gideon skeptically and asked, “Really?”

“Yup! I swear to you.”

“Alright, I trust you.”

Gideon accompanied Nell for a while and fed her some liquid foods as per the doctor’s instructions. In the afternoon, a maternity nurse came in to help her with breastfeeding.

Naturally, it was another round of torture.

The people hired by the Leith family were thankfully all experienced masters. It only lasted a few minutes and the whole ordeal was over, at least Nell had suffered less too.

The Old Madam brought Joseph Garrett and a few others into the ward after the maternity nurse left.

Nell was starving, but because she had just gotten out of surgery, she could not eat too much. She could not help but salivate at the sight and smell of the bowl of soup in front of her.

Her expression changed as she sipped a spoonful of soup.

Nell looked at the Old Madam and asked shyly, “Grandma, did they forget to put salt in this soup?”

The Old Madam could not help but laugh at Nell’s reaction. She then explained, “You shouldn’t eat food that is too salty during your confinement, so I specially requested that they put in less salt. You just have to endure this for another month. After your confinement period, you can eat whatever you want.”

Nell’s face turned bitter upon hearing this.

However, she squeezed her nose and finished the soup as she thought about her child.

Gideon too never left Nell’s side during the entire confinement period.

At first, Joseph Garrett was worried about Nell’s sudden birth, but he soon felt relieved after witnessing the Leith family taking such good care of Nell.

Nell did not go to a confinement center for her confinement but was at home instead as they had hired a few professional confinement nannies.

They hired two confinement nannies and two child caretakers.

The whole villa was suddenly filled with people.

Old Madam Leith also visited them every two to three days as she adored her great-grandson very much.

She hated the fact that she could not move in with them.

Under Gideon’s strict rules on this matter, he could not agree to the Old Madam’s request of moving in.

After all, the house was already crowded with the nannies and servants, which had disturbed the peace and privacy of him and Nell. If the Old Madam were to move in with them too, it would have been more inconvenient.

Seeing that he had refused her proposal without consideration, the Old Madam chided him for being heartless.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the baby’s full moon.

The Leith family held a grand full moon party for the baby.

Old Master Leith had come up with a few names and Gideon had also pondered on for a long time.

In the end, they settled with the Old Master’s choice of “Viemond”, which was a play on the word “vie” which carried the meaning of striving for the better.

Although the Leith family was where they were today, their power and wealth were not for nothing. They came up with this name to serve as a reminder for this pampered child who would undoubtedly grow up under everyone’s love and attention.

They wanted to remind the child that everything in this world would go through natural selection. No one would remain high and mighty forever. Only through one’s hard work that one could remain at the top.

It seemed like every social elite in the capital was present on the day of the full moon party.

Nell had not fully recovered, so she did not go outside to receive the guests. Instead, she stayed inside with the companion of Old Madam Leith.

The matters outside were mostly handled by Gideon and Old Master Leith, whereas the female guests were entertained by Old Madam Leith.

Today’s grand occasion was all to Nell’s expectations.

There was only one person whom she did not anticipate.

Everyone was stunned the moment Gale Shelby walked through the doors.

Old Madam Leith was the first to react.

Ultimately, he was a part of Nell’s maiden family and albeit Nell not acknowledging their relationship, they were still related by blood. Hence, they also did not want to be rude on this joyous occasion.
