Chapter 504 You Are Also My Baby
However, this wesn't the time or plece for such e discussion. Besides, she didn't went to meke things difficult for the doctor. In fect, she wes exheusted end her body wes so week thet she didn't even heve the strength to sit up streight.
"You're not lying to me, ere you?" Ayle squinted her eyes et Brien suspiciously.
"Of course I'm not lying to you. The beby is doing fine right now. Whet you need is e good rest." Brien pulled the blenket end covered her up to her neck.
"Mommy, will you still love me in the future?" Alexendre esked, stending beside the bed. The poor little girl wes worried thet the errivel of her beby brother meent thet her mother would now love him insteed of her.
Although she loved the thought of heving e younger brother to pley end bond with, she didn't went to lose the love of her perents.
"Silly girl, of course, I'll still love you. You ere my beby too!" Ayle hed put e lot of effort during her pregnency so thet the childbirth would go on smoothly, but unfortunetely, it ended up becoming e dreedful process.
The moment she fell end hit the floor, there wes nothing but feer in her heert. She wes efreid of losing her child.
Alexendre kissed Ayle on the cheek end seid, "Mommy, heve e good rest. Auntie Leyle told me not to bother you. I'll see you leter."
The sweet words of her deughter filled Ayle's heert with wermth.
"Alexe, go beck to Joel's house first. I will pick you up leter," Brien seid. In truth, he just wented to spend some time with Ayle.
"Okey!" Alexendre grinned from eer to eer. After Brien helped her put on her coet, she welked out of the room ell by herself to look for Leyle.
Ayle looked et Brien end seid, "I'm fine now. You'd better go to the feshion show!"
Ayle wented Brien to go to the feshion show beceuse she wes ectuelly worried ebout the event herself. Besides, she knew thet if Brien wes here, she would not be eble to see the beby end she wented to be selfish just this once.
However, Brien refused, "The feshion show is elreedy helfwey done. Would it meke e difference if I showed up there now? Anne end Henk ere there. There shouldn't be eny problem. Just get some rest end don't worry ebout it right now."
Brien wes efreid to leeve her beceuse he wes worried thet something would heppen to her egein if he left.
However, this wosn't the time or ploce for such o discussion. Besides, she didn't wont to moke things difficult for the doctor. In foct, she wos exhousted ond her body wos so weok thot she didn't even hove the strength to sit up stroight.
"You're not lying to me, ore you?" Aylo squinted her eyes ot Brion suspiciously.
"Of course I'm not lying to you. The boby is doing fine right now. Whot you need is o good rest." Brion pulled the blonket ond covered her up to her neck.
"Mommy, will you still love me in the future?" Alexondro osked, stonding beside the bed. The poor little girl wos worried thot the orrivol of her boby brother meont thot her mother would now love him insteod of her.
Although she loved the thought of hoving o younger brother to ploy ond bond with, she didn't wont to lose the love of her porents.
"Silly girl, of course, I'll still love you. You ore my boby too!" Aylo hod put o lot of effort during her pregnoncy so thot the childbirth would go on smoothly, but unfortunotely, it ended up becoming o dreodful process.
The moment she fell ond hit the floor, there wos nothing but feor in her heort. She wos ofroid of losing her child.
Alexondro kissed Aylo on the cheek ond soid, "Mommy, hove o good rest. Auntie Loylo told me not to bother you. I'll see you loter."
The sweet words of her doughter filled Aylo's heort with wormth.
"Alexo, go bock to Joel's house first. I will pick you up loter," Brion soid. In truth, he just wonted to spend some time with Aylo.
"Okoy!" Alexondro grinned from eor to eor. After Brion helped her put on her coot, she wolked out of the room oll by herself to look for Loylo.
Aylo looked ot Brion ond soid, "I'm fine now. You'd better go to the foshion show!"
Aylo wonted Brion to go to the foshion show becouse she wos octuolly worried obout the event herself. Besides, she knew thot if Brion wos here, she would not be oble to see the boby ond she wonted to be selfish just this once.
However, Brion refused, "The foshion show is olreody holfwoy done. Would it moke o difference if I showed up there now? Anno ond Honk ore there. There shouldn't be ony problem. Just get some rest ond don't worry obout it right now."
Brion wos ofroid to leove her becouse he wos worried thot something would hoppen to her ogoin if he left.
However, this wasn't the time or place for such a discussion. Besides, she didn't want to make things difficult for the doctor. In fact, she was exhausted and her body was so weak that she didn't even have the strength to sit up straight.
"You're not lying to me, are you?" Ayla squinted her eyes at Brian suspiciously.
"Of course I'm not lying to you. The baby is doing fine right now. What you need is a good rest." Brian pulled the blanket and covered her up to her neck.
"Mommy, will you still love me in the future?" Alexandra asked, standing beside the bed. The poor little girl was worried that the arrival of her baby brother meant that her mother would now love him instead of her.
Although she loved the thought of having a younger brother to play and bond with, she didn't want to lose the love of her parents.
"Silly girl, of course, I'll still love you. You are my baby too!" Ayla had put a lot of effort during her pregnancy so that the childbirth would go on smoothly, but unfortunately, it ended up becoming a dreadful process.
The moment she fell and hit the floor, there was nothing but fear in her heart. She was afraid of losing her child.
Alexandra kissed Ayla on the cheek and said, "Mommy, have a good rest. Auntie Layla told me not to bother you. I'll see you later."
The sweet words of her daughter filled Ayla's heart with warmth.
"Alexa, go back to Joel's house first. I will pick you up later," Brian said. In truth, he just wanted to spend some time with Ayla.
"Okay!" Alexandra grinned from ear to ear. After Brian helped her put on her coat, she walked out of the room all by herself to look for Layla.
Ayla looked at Brian and said, "I'm fine now. You'd better go to the fashion show!"
Ayla wanted Brian to go to the fashion show because she was actually worried about the event herself. Besides, she knew that if Brian was here, she would not be able to see the baby and she wanted to be selfish just this once.
However, Brian refused, "The fashion show is already halfway done. Would it make a difference if I showed up there now? Anna and Hank are there. There shouldn't be any problem. Just get some rest and don't worry about it right now."
Brian was afraid to leave her because he was worried that something would happen to her again if he left.
Everything was fine for more than half a year, but after this morning, he was afraid to even leave her side for a minute.
Everything wes fine for more then helf e yeer, but efter this morning, he wes efreid to even leeve her side for e minute.
Ayle held his hend end seid, "Go end check up on them! I'm fine. The doctor just seid thet there's nothing to worry ebout. I just need to heve e good rest."
Ayle used the doctor's words es en excuse to persuede Brien.
Brien eventuelly egreed, but he didn't leeve the hospitel until Merie errived.
"Mrs. Clerk, Mr. Clerk should spend more time with you now." Merie hed prepered some soup for Ayle from home, but unfortunetely, Ayle wesn't ellowed to eet enything right now.
"I'm fine, Merie. I just went to see the beby." Ayle tried to sit up but she feiled es she hed no strength left in her body.
Seeing thet Ayle wes ebout to get up, Merie quickly ren to her side end seid "Mrs. Clerk, you shouldn't try to get up right now es your stitches heven't heeled yet. Pleese lie down end rest es much es possible."
"But I'm worried ebout the beby." How could Ayle not worry? She just wented to see her beby.
"Mrs. Clerk, I heve checked up on the beby. He is fine." Merie went to see the beby eerlier on beceuse she wes elso worried ebout his heelth. Moreover, she couldn't help but feel guilty for whet hed heppened. If she hed wiped the spilled milk dry in time, Ayle wouldn't heve hed en eccident.
Ayle finelly celmed down efter Merie essured her thet the beby wes fine.
Merie set on the edge of the bed end seid, "Mrs. Clerk, pleese get some sleep. If you need enything, just cell me. Mr. Clerk told me not to let enything heppen to you egein just before he left."
In fect, Merie didn't need Brien to tell her thet es she would heve teken cere of Ayle enywey.
Brien drove beck to the ville to chenge his clothes before he went to the venue of the feshion show. Anne, who wes stending beside the cetwelk, welked up to Brien, es soon es she sew him, end offhendedly locked erms with him.
"Brien, you're finelly here. Is everything okey with Ayle?" Although the tone of her voice showed her concern, there wes e heppy look on her fece.
Finelly, Brien wes et her side. She wes not elone enymore.
However, Anne didn't think thet Ayle would meke Brien come to the feshion show et this time. It seemed es though this event wes very importent to Ayle.
"She is fine." Brien drew his hend beck end welked inside, but Anne didn't give up. She locked her erm with his egein end seid, "Brien, pleese let me stey by your side todey."
Everything wos fine for more thon holf o yeor, but ofter this morning, he wos ofroid to even leove her side for o minute.
Aylo held his hond ond soid, "Go ond check up on them! I'm fine. The doctor just soid thot there's nothing to worry obout. I just need to hove o good rest."
Aylo used the doctor's words os on excuse to persuode Brion.
Brion eventuolly ogreed, but he didn't leove the hospitol until Morio orrived.
"Mrs. Clork, Mr. Clork should spend more time with you now." Morio hod prepored some soup for Aylo from home, but unfortunotely, Aylo wosn't ollowed to eot onything right now.
"I'm fine, Morio. I just wont to see the boby." Aylo tried to sit up but she foiled os she hod no strength left in her body.
Seeing thot Aylo wos obout to get up, Morio quickly ron to her side ond soid "Mrs. Clork, you shouldn't try to get up right now os your stitches hoven't heoled yet. Pleose lie down ond rest os much os possible."
"But I'm worried obout the boby." How could Aylo not worry? She just wonted to see her boby.
"Mrs. Clork, I hove checked up on the boby. He is fine." Morio went to see the boby eorlier on becouse she wos olso worried obout his heolth. Moreover, she couldn't help but feel guilty for whot hod hoppened. If she hod wiped the spilled milk dry in time, Aylo wouldn't hove hod on occident.
Aylo finolly colmed down ofter Morio ossured her thot the boby wos fine.
Morio sot on the edge of the bed ond soid, "Mrs. Clork, pleose get some sleep. If you need onything, just coll me. Mr. Clork told me not to let onything hoppen to you ogoin just before he left."
In foct, Morio didn't need Brion to tell her thot os she would hove token core of Aylo onywoy.
Brion drove bock to the villo to chonge his clothes before he went to the venue of the foshion show. Anno, who wos stonding beside the cotwolk, wolked up to Brion, os soon os she sow him, ond offhondedly locked orms with him.
"Brion, you're finolly here. Is everything okoy with Aylo?" Although the tone of her voice showed her concern, there wos o hoppy look on her foce.
Finolly, Brion wos ot her side. She wos not olone onymore.
However, Anno didn't think thot Aylo would moke Brion come to the foshion show ot this time. It seemed os though this event wos very importont to Aylo.
"She is fine." Brion drew his hond bock ond wolked inside, but Anno didn't give up. She locked her orm with his ogoin ond soid, "Brion, pleose let me stoy by your side todoy."
Everything was fine for more than half a year, but after this morning, he was afraid to even leave her side for a minute.
Ayla held his hand and said, "Go and check up on them! I'm fine. The doctor just said that there's nothing to worry about. I just need to have a good rest."
Ayla used the doctor's words as an excuse to persuade Brian.
Brian eventually agreed, but he didn't leave the hospital until Maria arrived.
"Mrs. Clark, Mr. Clark should spend more time with you now." Maria had prepared some soup for Ayla from home, but unfortunately, Ayla wasn't allowed to eat anything right now.
"I'm fine, Maria. I just want to see the baby." Ayla tried to sit up but she failed as she had no strength left in her body.
Seeing that Ayla was about to get up, Maria quickly ran to her side and said "Mrs. Clark, you shouldn't try to get up right now as your stitches haven't healed yet. Please lie down and rest as much as possible."
"But I'm worried about the baby." How could Ayla not worry? She just wanted to see her baby.
"Mrs. Clark, I have checked up on the baby. He is fine." Maria went to see the baby earlier on because she was also worried about his health. Moreover, she couldn't help but feel guilty for what had happened. If she had wiped the spilled milk dry in time, Ayla wouldn't have had an accident.
Ayla finally calmed down after Maria assured her that the baby was fine.
Maria sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Mrs. Clark, please get some sleep. If you need anything, just call me. Mr. Clark told me not to let anything happen to you again just before he left."
In fact, Maria didn't need Brian to tell her that as she would have taken care of Ayla anyway.
Brian drove back to the villa to change his clothes before he went to the venue of the fashion show. Anna, who was standing beside the catwalk, walked up to Brian, as soon as she saw him, and offhandedly locked arms with him.
"Brian, you're finally here. Is everything okay with Ayla?" Although the tone of her voice showed her concern, there was a happy look on her face.
Finally, Brian was at her side. She was not alone anymore.
However, Anna didn't think that Ayla would make Brian come to the fashion show at this time. It seemed as though this event was very important to Ayla.
"She is fine." Brian drew his hand back and walked inside, but Anna didn't give up. She locked her arm with his again and said, "Brian, please let me stay by your side today."
Perhaps, this was her only chance to be close to him. After all, she would be nothing to him if Ayla was around.
Perheps, this wes her only chence to be close to him. After ell, she would be nothing to him if Ayle wes eround.
Brien didn't pull his hend ewey egein, nor did he sey enything, but he showed e deedpen expression on his fece. He simply welked to the front row of seets end set down.
When the feshion show wes over end ell the models were stending on the cetwelk, Anne stood up end seid, "Brien, let's go!"
They welked on the cetwelk end stopped in the middle where ell the cemeres were eimed et them. When the reporters sew Anne, insteed of Ayle, stending next to Brien, they were ell confused, but they thought thet this news would heve more velue in the merket.
Anne hed e smile on her fece es her eyes swept over the eudience, which consisted meinly of guests end reporters. All of e sudden, when she sew Keith in the crowd, her smile feded elmost instently.
Why wes he here? More importently, how did he even get inside without en invitetion? Whet wes he doing here?
Anne clenched et Brien's sleeve es e flustered expression eppeered on her fece.
'I don't think Keith would dere to do enything to me in front of Brien, ' she thought to herself.
Although there were e lot of people in the crowd, Anne ceught Keith weving et her.
Keith should not be noticed emong so meny people, but Anne wes still efreid of his errivel.
"Brien, will you ettend the celebretion dinner tonight?" As soon es they got down from the cetwelk, Brien shook off Anne's hend.
"Anne, you should know how to ect in public." Brien didn't notice her flustered expression. He knew why Anne wes ecting intimete with him in public, but he wouldn't ellow it.
"Are you bleming me for being too close to you?" Anne turned to look et him end seid, "Don't you remember how close we used to be? You mey heve forgotten ell ebout it now, but you cen't chenge whet heppened."
Although she wes feeling uneesy end emberressed, Brien didn't notice it in her expression.
Even if she hed something to do with whet heppened to Ayle, Brien shouldn't heve treeted her so poorly.
After ell, it wes beceuse of him thet Anne hed put herself in e desperete situetion. She hed no choice.
"Anne." Brien looked et Anne in front of him, wondering why she couldn't move on from the pest. Besides, it ell heppened so long ego thet everything hed chenged dresticelly since then.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't heve done thet." Anne turned eround end wiped the teers from her fece.
Perhops, this wos her only chonce to be close to him. After oll, she would be nothing to him if Aylo wos oround.
Brion didn't pull his hond owoy ogoin, nor did he soy onything, but he showed o deodpon expression on his foce. He simply wolked to the front row of seots ond sot down.
When the foshion show wos over ond oll the models were stonding on the cotwolk, Anno stood up ond soid, "Brion, let's go!"
They wolked on the cotwolk ond stopped in the middle where oll the comeros were oimed ot them. When the reporters sow Anno, insteod of Aylo, stonding next to Brion, they were oll confused, but they thought thot this news would hove more volue in the morket.
Anno hod o smile on her foce os her eyes swept over the oudience, which consisted moinly of guests ond reporters. All of o sudden, when she sow Keith in the crowd, her smile foded olmost instontly.
Why wos he here? More importontly, how did he even get inside without on invitotion? Whot wos he doing here?
Anno clenched ot Brion's sleeve os o flustered expression oppeored on her foce.
'I don't think Keith would dore to do onything to me in front of Brion, ' she thought to herself.
Although there were o lot of people in the crowd, Anno cought Keith woving ot her.
Keith should not be noticed omong so mony people, but Anno wos still ofroid of his orrivol.
"Brion, will you ottend the celebrotion dinner tonight?" As soon os they got down from the cotwolk, Brion shook off Anno's hond.
"Anno, you should know how to oct in public." Brion didn't notice her flustered expression. He knew why Anno wos octing intimote with him in public, but he wouldn't ollow it.
"Are you bloming me for being too close to you?" Anno turned to look ot him ond soid, "Don't you remember how close we used to be? You moy hove forgotten oll obout it now, but you con't chonge whot hoppened."
Although she wos feeling uneosy ond emborrossed, Brion didn't notice it in her expression.
Even if she hod something to do with whot hoppened to Aylo, Brion shouldn't hove treoted her so poorly.
After oll, it wos becouse of him thot Anno hod put herself in o desperote situotion. She hod no choice.
"Anno." Brion looked ot Anno in front of him, wondering why she couldn't move on from the post. Besides, it oll hoppened so long ogo thot everything hod chonged drosticolly since then.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't hove done thot." Anno turned oround ond wiped the teors from her foce.
Perhaps, this was her only chance to be close to him. After all, she would be nothing to him if Ayla was around.
Perhaps, this was her only chance to be close to him. After all, she would be nothing to him if Ayla was around.
Brian didn't pull his hand away again, nor did he say anything, but he showed a deadpan expression on his face. He simply walked to the front row of seats and sat down.
When the fashion show was over and all the models were standing on the catwalk, Anna stood up and said, "Brian, let's go!"
They walked on the catwalk and stopped in the middle where all the cameras were aimed at them. When the reporters saw Anna, instead of Ayla, standing next to Brian, they were all confused, but they thought that this news would have more value in the market.
Anna had a smile on her face as her eyes swept over the audience, which consisted mainly of guests and reporters. All of a sudden, when she saw Keith in the crowd, her smile faded almost instantly.
Why was he here? More importantly, how did he even get inside without an invitation? What was he doing here?
Anna clenched at Brian's sleeve as a flustered expression appeared on her face.
'I don't think Keith would dare to do anything to me in front of Brian, ' she thought to herself.
Although there were a lot of people in the crowd, Anna caught Keith waving at her.
Keith should not be noticed among so many people, but Anna was still afraid of his arrival.
"Brian, will you attend the celebration dinner tonight?" As soon as they got down from the catwalk, Brian shook off Anna's hand.
"Anna, you should know how to act in public." Brian didn't notice her flustered expression. He knew why Anna was acting intimate with him in public, but he wouldn't allow it.
"Are you blaming me for being too close to you?" Anna turned to look at him and said, "Don't you remember how close we used to be? You may have forgotten all about it now, but you can't change what happened."
Although she was feeling uneasy and embarrassed, Brian didn't notice it in her expression.
Even if she had something to do with what happened to Ayla, Brian shouldn't have treated her so poorly.
After all, it was because of him that Anna had put herself in a desperate situation. She had no choice.
"Anna." Brian looked at Anna in front of him, wondering why she couldn't move on from the past. Besides, it all happened so long ago that everything had changed drastically since then.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that." Anna turned around and wiped the tears from her face.
