Claudia didn't expect Ben to come.
“Abnormal fetal position. The baby will be in danger if we don’t do anything!” Gerren said.
Ben walked over to hold Claudia's hand and stared at Gerren. “Abnormal fetal position? Why didn’t you say anything when she was here for check-ups before?”
“Well...”
“I want both my wife and my baby safe!” Ben said firmly with a fierce look. Garren would have died thousands of times if Ben’s gaze could kill.
Gerren was so frightened that she took a deep breath and looked helplessly at the nurse. They seemed to have read each other’s hints. Then they tried to convince him, “Mr. Crawford, it would be better if you make a choice. Claudia’s condition is critical...”
“OK, keep Claudia safe then!” Ben made a quick decision.
He continued after a pause, “But if I lose my son after all this, I will have the entire delivery process investigated. Once I find any problems, I will sue the whole hospital for murdering my son! You’ll spend the rest of your life in jail, I swear!”
Gerren and others were so frightened upon hearing this.
No matter how much money Blair had offered them, now they didn’t dare do anything.
Gerren and the nurses nodded repeatedly in panic, “Don't worry, Mr. Crawford, we will do our best to keep them safe...”
They thought that Claudia was just a mute with no living relatives, and her father had passed away early. Now that her stepmother was willing to pay such a large sum of money to forge an accident, they agreed with pleasure because it was a huge sum of money.
However, they had to give up now since Ben is standing up for Claudia. They couldn’t afford to piss off the Crawford family.
Gerren and others began to work in normal procedures, but Claudia was more than weak now. She held Ben’s hand tight, her clear eyes filled with tears.
She couldn’t care less about herself. She would give up anything to trade for her baby’s health.
“Hold on, Claudia. You’ve been waiting for the baby for so long!” Ben asked.
Yes, she had been waiting.
That was because it was her and Ben's child.
She fell in love with him when she was little when he didn't even know her name.
More than a decade had passed. She still wanted to marry him, and she didn’t care if this marriage is meaningless or not if her stepmother would plot against him. She would do everything for him.
The belief in love supported Claudia and help her through the difficulty. When she heard the baby crying, she smiled weakly, closed her eyes, and passed out.
“Claudia!” Ben shouted, holding her hand.
“She was just too tired. She's going to be okay.” The doctor explained.
He was relieved and slowly let go of her hand. The nurse handed the baby over. Ben found it so small and hadn’t opened his eyes yet. He was glad to see him.
“Congratulations, Mr. Crawford. It's a boy!” Said the nurse.
He was a father now.
He never thought Claudia would be the mother of his first child.
Claudia was sent to the VIP ward. Winifred followed the doctor to the baby room. She looked at her grandson through the glass window and smiled joyfully.
“This is the heir to our family! My little grandson!”
“Don't just feel happy for your grandson. Claudia is who brought him to you, remember? You should treat her better!”
“You...”
Winifred sighed as she saw Kim leaving. She was in such a good mood that she decided to forgive this rude girl.
Kim had been looking for Ben everywhere in the hospital and finally found him.
He was leaning against the wall and looked intimidating as usual.
