The next round was even more exhausting. Her already injured path was taking out another child. This time, she couldn"t take it and felt nausea. Carlo put a polyethene bag in front of her mouth. She vomited till nothing was left in her stomach. Carlo a.s.sisted her to clean her mouth and then she drank water. She didn"t feel like drinking water but her voice became hoa.r.s.e and her throat turned dry after screaming for too long.


Pedro said, "Alright, push now. You have to hurry up or the child might face a problem."


This time, Mu Lan bit down her lower lip and her teeth but through her soft skin. As she tested her own blood, her eyes turned red. She used her power to push because she didn"t have any other choice left. She started respecting all the mothers in the world who went through the same pain she was in.


Pedro took the newborn in his hands and declared, "It"s a boy. It"s two minutes younger than the first one."


Osiris exclaimed, "Oh, twin boys! How wonderful!" But he did wish that there would be a baby doll just like Mu Lan. He took the boy and cleaned his b.l.o.o.d.y body and then put her on another bed beside the firstborn.


Mu Lan gave a small smile. However, her face was pale. She had no energy left. She could hardly keep her eyes open.


Pedro saw that Mu Lan was losing consciousness. He said, "Kid, you cannot sleep now. You have to prepare for another round."


Mark, Osiris, and Mu Liang looked at him in astonishment. Carlo read Mu Lan and Pedro"s mind beforehand so he wasn"t" surprised. Osiris asked, "Triplets?!" He was overjoyed.


However, Mu Liang had the opposite expression. He realized that this was the surprise she wished to give him but it didn"t make him happy at all. He was upset and he was feeling guilty. He kept thinking that if it wasn"t for him, she wouldn"t have suffered so much. He wanted nothing more than ending the nightmare. He kept hugging his wife. He didn"t want more babies.


Mu Lan gave a hysterical laugh. She didn"t know why she was laughing. She could hardly speak; she squeezed out a few words, "I want to sleep."


Mark said, "Hang in there, missy. Just one more to go."


Mu Lan gave a painful smile. She took a few more deep breathes and then started pus.h.i.+ng again. While doing so, she unintentionally scratched Mu Liang"s hands, making him bleed. Mu Liang didn"t move a muscle. He just held her tightly and kept reciting, "You can do it. You can do it."


Pedro took the third child and announced, "It"s a boy; two minutes younger than the second one."


Osiris, Mark, and Carlo were shocked. Osiris said, "What"s going on? Three children and all of them are boys! Unbelievable!"


All three babies were crying. Their loud cry was unbearable in the stuffy clinic. Mark closed his ears. "I can"t take it anymore."


Carlo sued his power to control their minds and made them fall asleep. The room became silent. Everyone huffed in relief.


Pedro gave the third kid to Osiris and said, "Alright, one more to go."


Mark and Osiris were puzzled. Mark asked, "One more?! Will she be able to take it? Look at her!"


Mu Lan looked like she was dying. She wasn"t even breathing properly. Her body was turning cold. Her mid was flying somewhere else. Pain? What was it again? She couldn"t feel anything. She was exhausted.


Osiris tapped his chin and commented, "She is losing it."


Pedro said, "We can"t wait any longer. Kid, you need to hold of yourself. This is the last one. Then everything will end."


"What are they saying?" Mu Lan wondered. But then she thought there wasn"t any need to it. She was going to a faraway place. When she almost lost consciousness, Carlo woke her up using telepathy. Since her sense was weak, he could easily control her mind now. He said, "You cannot close your eyes now, kid. Don"t you want to save this child? Or do you want to kill it?"


Mu Lan"s eyes flew open. Carlo hit her sore spot. Mu Lan gripped on Mu Lan"s hand as tried to push. But she didn"t have an ounce of energy left. She looked at Carlo.


Carlo read her mind and touched her forehead. He murmured, "I will help you." Saying that he controlled her mind and with willpower, he helped her to push the baby.


Mu Liang"s eyes were only on the woman in his arms. He as thinking, "Why must she go through such experience? One was enough. Why four?" The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt."


Carlo was resenting Mu Liang up until now. He never saw his kid to scream and to be hurt like that. He was cursing Mu Liang in his mind. However, the way Mu Liang clung onto her and repenting in his mind, seeing all that, Carlo"s hatred towards Mu Liang subsided.


Pedro spoke in amazement, "What a miracle! It"s a boy again; one minute younger than the third one." He looked at Mu Lan who lost consciousness. Her face was deathly pale. Anyone who would see her think that she was dead. "Let her take some rest. She will wake up eventually when she gains some strength." After that, he sewed her bleeding whole.


"You, take her to the other bed," Carlo ordered Mu Liang. "I"ll let Antonio wash the bedsheets."


Mark said, "She needs to change her clothes too. We can"t let her stay in these b.l.o.o.d.y clothes."


Mark took off his surgical clothes and opened the door. When he went outside s.h.i.+ntaro caught him. "How is she? I heard a child cry from time to time. Why is it so quiet inside?"


Mark smiled and said, "She gave birth to four sons. They are currently sleeping."


s.h.i.+ntaro, Antonio and Ru Xin gasped. "Four boys!" They exclaimed in unison.
