Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 356

Chapter 356 Because We All Love Her

Once they saw that Selena had returned, both Melissa and Joshua thoughtfully left the ward even before they were told to do so. They wanted to allow Selena to spend more time with her daughter. That night, Selena slept in the ward itself with her arms tightly wrapped around Juniper. “The doctor told me that I can give birth to another child and that we can use the blood from my umbilical cord to treat your illness, Juniper,” Selena whispered.

“Are you planning to have another baby with Mr. Handsome, Mommy?” Juniper paid no attention to the second half of Selena’s sentence.

Selena gently caressed the young girl’s hair. “Do you think that would be a good idea?”

“Of course! That way, I can be someone’s elder sister!” Juniper’s eyes lit up for a moment. “But I don’t want to take the blood from the baby’s umbilical cord.”

“Why not?” Selena asked.

Juniper’s eyes twinkled as brightly as the constellations in the night sky. “I want the baby to be born into a world where we all love her, not a world where I need her, Mommy,” she uttered as her clear gaze landed on Selena.

Selena felt a lump forming in her throat—the young girl’s words had directly struck her in her soft spot. I really have the best daughter in the world, she thought as she gently fondled Juniper’s hair. She couldn’t manage to speak without choking on her tears then, so she simply pulled Juniper in for a tight hug.

“Mommy, if the baby grows up and finds out that she only existed because I needed her help, she would be really sad. That’s why I don’t want to take the blood from her umbilical cord. Promise me that it won’t happen, okay, Mommy?” Juniper continued.

“Okay. I promise. I promise you that it won’t happen.” Selena kissed the young girl on her forehead.

…

Selena had hoped for Hades to change his mind in the three days before their wedding, but it didn’t happen in the end. She didn’t catch a glimpse of him until the day of the wedding itself. On the day itself, Selena sat quietly in her room as she waited for the day to start.
