The Contract Marriage by Winter Love

Chapter 264 Her Heart Is Stifled

Daphne immediately retreated to the side when she heard him. She handed the child to Christian.

As soon as the child came in his arms, Christian trembled. It was an indescribable feelings.

Looking at the child who was crying, Christian felt his heart beat raise.

Christian was stunned for two seconds, before coming back into his senses. He carried Stephen to his wife's side.

Sarah saw the child crying until his face turned red and her heart softened. She lifted her clothes and placed the

head of her breast on Stephen's mouth.

The little fellow was still crying loudly. When he felt the head of the breast in his mouth, he opened his little mouth

and put it in her mouth. He started to eat with all its strength, and the crying stopped too.

Looking at the child, who was eating her milk in her arms, Sarah’s whole body tensed. She did not know what was

wrong with her today, but ever since she heard Stephen crying, she had been feeling very uncomfortable in her

heart.

It was as if he was her own child. . .

Sarah was awakened by Daphne’s excited voice.

"Aiya, this child is really hungry! That's great!"

Seeing her grandson eating vigorously in Sarah's arms, Daphne smiled and her nervous heart also fell to the

ground.

Samantha looked at this child eating happily and could not help but laugh, "Looks like Stephen is really hungry!"

Sarah looked at Stephen who was in her arms and also smiled. Thinking about how he was crying his heart out, she

looked up at Daphne and said, "Aunt Daphne, since my milk is enough, since Stephen likes to eat, bring him over.”

Samantha heard her daughter's words and then said, "Stephen may not be familiar with his mother's taste. He will

definitely get better in the future."

Although her daughter was kind, Samantha was worried that the Holmes mother and daughter would think too

much.

Daphne heard the meaning in Samantha's words but still felt heartache for her own grandson. She looked at Sarah

and nodded, "Sarah, it seems that Stephen recognizes you now. If you think it is okay, let Stephen eat for a few

days, okay?"

"I'm fine. Just carry him here."

Sarah looked down at Stephen who was in her arms. She did not know whether the little guy was happy eating or

not. He waved his little hand and when he saw Sarah looking at him, he actually grinned and revealed a smile on his

pink gums.

Daphne looked at the smile on her grandson's face and also smiled, "Sarah, it seems that our Stephen likes you!"

Christian also looked at this little fellow and said. "Sarah, it seems that you are quite popular. This little fellow was

just born and actually likes you."

Sarah smiled and did not say anything. She lowered her head to look at the little guy in her arms. No matter how

she looked at it, she felt that he was very likable.

Stephen ate until he was full in Sarah's arms and only then did he spit the head out.

Daphne immediately carried the child and looked at Sarah gratefully, "Sarah, then you rest. I will go back first."

After saying that, she carried Stephen and left.

Samantha watched Daphne walk away and only then did she close the door of the room and sigh. "Stephen. . . this

child is really strange. He doesn't recognize his own biological mother and actually likes to eat your milk. . ."

Samantha shook her head as she spoke, feeling that this matter was somewhat inconceivable.

"It can't be helped. My wife is still very popular and even a newborn child likes her!"

As Christian spoke, he smiled as he walked to his daughter's bedside. Seeing that his daughter was very obedient

and playing by herself, he reached out and picked her up from the bed.

Sarah listened to her mother and Christian's words, but she was a little worried in her heart. "I don't know if he ate

Vivian's milk or not. But seeing how he cried just now, I keep feeling that my heart is stifled."

"Such a young child. Who wouldn’t feel uncomfortable seeing him crying like that? But no matter what, he is still

Vivian's son. I think you should try your best to not get involved. She had just become a mother and carried her own

child to someone else to feed. She must feel uncomfortable in her heart."

Samantha listened to her daughter's words and understood the character of the Holmes family's mother and

daughter. She immediately reminded her daughter.

Sarah understood that her mother was doing this for her own good, but she was still worried about Stephen and did

not say anything else.

Daphne carried Stephen all the way back to Vivian's delivery room. Once they walked in, Mrs. Holmes immediately

walked over anxiously and asked, "Mrs. Holmes, has Stephen eaten yet? How is it?"

Daphne smiled, "He ate! He ate! Look at how he cried just now. Who would have thought that the moment Sarah

fed him, he would open his mouth and eat. I only carried him back after he was full. Look at this little fellow now. He

will probably fall asleep in a while."

When Mrs. Holmes heard Daphne's words, an awkward expression flashed across her face. She subconsciously

looked at her daughter and reached out to take Stephen from Daphne's embrace.

"Mrs. Cooper, since the child is full, I will coax him to sleep. You go and see Julian's father. . ."

Daphne heard her and nodded, but she was still worried. So she gave an order. "I have already informed Sarah. If

Stephen still does not drink milk powder, then carry him to Sarah's place. That little girl eats very little and can't

even eat a single side full. When Vivian is discharged from the hospital, we will think of a way then."

Mrs. Holmes nodded but did not agree to her words. She only smiled and said. "Don't worry, Mrs. Cooper. I will take

good care of Stephen."

"Okay! I'll be leaving now." Daphne said as she walked out of Vivian's delivery room.

Mrs. Holmes immediately carried Stephen to the door of the room and closed it. Then she carried Stephen to the

side of Vivian's bed and wanted to sit down.

Vivian immediately frowned and waved her hand, "Mom, you should put him on the baby bed first. I feel

uncomfortable seeing him now."

When she heard Daphne say that this child ate Sarah's milk just now, it made her indescribably upset.

Mrs. Holmes listened to her daughter's words and could only carry Stephen to the baby's bedside. She placed

Stephen into the baby's bed and covered him with a small quilt. Seeing that he was full and did not cry or make a

fuss, she felt at ease and walked back to her daughter's bed to sit down.

Seeing that her mother had sat down, Vivian immediately looked at her mother and complained. "Did you see? You

even said to give it a try. It's good now. He is now eating that Sarah's milk. What do you think I should do next?

Whose child eats other people's milk the moment he's born!"

Mrs. Holmes looked at her daughter with a little lack of confidence, “It is not like you did not see the anxious look on

your mother-in-law's face just now. She carried the child away without giving any explanation. What can I do? If she

doesn't come, I won’t carry him to Sarah's place. Don't take it too seriously. Can't we just not carry him over later?

Besides, your father-in-law are now in the ICU. How can your mother-in-law have the mood to come every time?"

Vivian said gloomily, "I hope that she will not come again."

"Don't worry. I will let Stephen slowly drink the milk powder. As long as he recognizes the taste of the milk powder,

there will definitely be no problem."

Christian coaxed his daughter to sleep before putting her into the nursery. After covering her with a small quilt, he

greeted his mother-in-law and wife, went to the floor where his father was.

When he walked to the ICU, he saw Daphne standing in front of the glass window.

Christian looked at his father through the glass and slowly walked over. He stood beside Daphne and looked at his

father in the ICU.

"The last time I left home, my father said that there would be two more children at home. He said that this was a

joyous occasion for Cooper Family. When the child is born, we must celebrate it well."

Daphne heard his words and her tears fell again. She could not help but sob.

"Although he doesn't know anything now, I think he still remembers the two children. I believe that this time, my

dad will definitely survive."

Daphne nodded silently and raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face. She sobbed, "When Julian was blind

some time ago, I often wake up in the middle of the night and see him sighing on the bed. Sometimes, he ran to the

study in the middle of the night. He had something to say in his heart, but he never told me. . . Plus, the company

seemed to be very busy during this period of time. Your father was tired. . ."

Daphne said as she cried and shook her head.

Christian heard what Daphne said and frowned slightly. He looked at his father in the glass window and asked

slowly, "Can you tell me about the situation the night before yesterday?"

Daphne sighed heavily. "Your father came back very late that night. Not long after dinner, he went to the study

again. He seemed to have brought back a lot of documents. Because I saw that he didn't eat much, I went to the

kitchen to prepare some bird nest porridge for him. After he ate, he worked for about an hour before returning to

his bedroom to prepare to take a shower. He also asked me to find him pajamas, but who knew. . .”

“Not long after he went in, I heard a bang from inside. I hastily ran into the bathroom and saw him clutching his

chest as he fell to the ground. You also know that he was so heavy that I couldn't help him up, so I called the

housekeeper over. After helping him put on his clothes, I helped him up to the car with the housekeeper. Only then

did I send him to the hospital. . ."

Christian nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he heard someone talking beside him. He immediately turned his

head and saw that it was his father's attending physician who had come.

Christian immediately walked forward and nervously asked his father's condition, "Doctor, how is my father's

condition now?"

"Yes, Doctor. When will he wake up?" Daphne also nervously asked.

The attending physician saw their expressions and understood their feelings. He replied slowly, "You don't have to

be too nervous. I came to see him an hour ago. The situation seems to have gotten better, but we can't be sure

yet. I'll go in first and examine him. You guys wait patiently here. . ."

With that, he brought the doctor and nurse behind him into the ICU.

When he heard that his father's condition was getting better, Christian immediately stared at the ward. Beside him,

Daphne also watched nervously.

After about half an hour, the door of the ICU finally opened. The attending physician who had just taken off his mask

looked at the two of them and revealed a smile.

"Doctor, is my dad getting better?" Christian asked impatiently.

The doctor in charge smiled at him and nodded. "Yes, I just did another check on him. Judging from the current

situation, he will be transferred to a normal ward in three days. You can let out a sigh of relief for the time being."

"When will he wake up?" Daphne nervously asked again.

"As long as he is transferred to a normal ward, your family members will be able to stay by his bed and talk more to

him, especially things that can make him happy, or things that happened in the past that can stimulate his brain. I

think he will wake up a little faster."
