The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 341

Janice hastily arrived, holding a large package filled with essentials for the new mother and children.

"How's it going, Mr. Evans?" She asked Ronan.

"It's done." He leaned back against the wall after delivering the news.

"Are both babies okay?" Janice asked with a hint of excitement.

"Just one."

"What do you mean one? Where's the other one?" Janice asked anxiously.

"Don’t ask."

Janice didn’t dare to say anything more.

It was nightfall by the time Cordelia was moved into a single patient room.

She was exhausted and was barely able to keep her eyes open,

but she knew that Ronan was by her side.

"Where are the babies?" she asked Ronan weakly.

"They were premature and needed to stay in the incubator for ten days. Janice is watching over them."

"Are they okay? Is the baby girl okay?" Cordelia asked. Victoria had previously mentioned that the girl was not doing well, and Samantha’s taunts had gotten to Cordelia, making her worry about her baby girl.

Ronan hesitated for a moment before replying, "She's fine."

Cordelia gave a weak nod.

"Do you want to eat something? I can ask Janice to prepare it for you." Ronan took her hand.

Cordelia, feeling too weak to even move, didn’t feel like eating anything. Even opening her eyes seemed to require too much energy. Indeed, giving birth took a toll on one's body.

"Are you staying here tonight?" She asked Ronan.

"Yes."

Cordelia noticed that Ronan didn't seem as happy as a new father should be, so she asked, "Aren't you happy?"

"No."
