Chapter 245: Hailey Goes Into Labor!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Being Jordan’s ex and current lovers, respectively, coupled with the fact that they were absolutely gorgeous, Hailey and Victoria were naturally like water and fire.
However, since she learned that Victoria might marry Russell, her att.i.tude became very cordial.
!!
Since Hailey was being pleasant and respectful to her now, Victoria didn’t want to seem too petty.
Victoria said, “Sure, I won’t be jealous. He’s the father of the child and is obliged to do that.”
“Thank you, Victoria.”
Hailey hung up the phone, smiled, and said to Jordan, “She has given the green light. Let’s go.”
Since both their significant others had agreed, Jordan didn’t say anything else and drove Hailey back to her and Cayden’s villa.
As soon as she returned, Sylvie asked, “My dear daughter, how’s the outcome of the checkup? Is the baby okay? Did Jordan take good care of you? He didn’t let you fall, did he?”
Hailey walked forward slowly and said, “He took great care of me. He held my hand the whole time.”
“The doctor diagnosed me with prenatal depression and said that I need to spend more time with the baby’s father, so I asked Jordan to come over and keep me company.”
Sylvie began to get worried. “Prenatal depression? Oh dear, why are you depressed, my dear daughter? What’s so depressing about giving birth? I’m telling you, childbirth isn’t that scary, don’t be worried.”
Afterward, she walked towards Jordan and said, “Jordan, you have to accompany Hailey well. Cayden is busy with work, so he has no time for her. Come over whenever you can. With me keeping an eye on you at home, Cayden won’t think there’s anything wrong when he finds out.”
Jordan humphed coldly. ‘Are you going to keep an eye on us to make sure we won’t cheat on Cayden?’
‘Well then, thank you very much! I don’t want anyone to get the wrong idea either!’
“Okay, Mom, stop talking and go make me something to eat. I’m hungry.” Hailey said.
“Okay, I’ll get to it now.”
After sending Sylvie away, Hailey walked to the couch in the living room and sat down. Pointing to the piano across the room, she said, “Jordan, it’s been a long time since I’ve heard you play the piano. Play something for me.”
“Okay,” Jordan agreed, thinking that playing the piano or something would be more interesting than chatting with Hailey.
In the living room, there was a Steinway grand piano. Jordan lifted the piano cover and sat down.
“I want to hear you play and sing ‘A Thousand Reasons to be Sad’!”
Hailey said excitedly, suddenly remembering that night when she watched a concert with Tyler, but they ran into Jordan and Victoria.
After Tyler successfully proposed to her, the jealous and heartbroken Jordan played and sang this song on stage in front of tens of thousands of people!
Hailey enjoyed herself at that moment!
At that time, Jordan was extremely in love with Hailey!
However, now that Jordan was giving Hailey the cold shoulder, she had to keep Jordan in love with her though she could choose not to like him!
“No,” Jordan clipped.
“You…” Hailey was so furious that she was going to jump up. ‘You performed so well in front of tens of thousands of people that you made the superstar pale in comparison!’
‘Now you’re saying you don’t know how to play?’
Hailey gave in, “Play ‘If You Feel Nothing’ then.”
It was another song that belonged to both of them.
“I don’t know how to play it,” Jordan repeated.
“How about lovers?”
Jordan said, “No.”
Hailey was furious. “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? You’re so familiar with these songs. You can play with your eyes closed!”
Jordan said coldly, “I’ve forgotten all these songs.”
Ever since the moment Hailey betrayed him again, Jordan had never listened to these songs and would never play them again.
“Then you can play whatever you want!”
Hailey was extremely displeased because she intended for Jordan to play their songs in the past so that they could reminisce about the good old days too!
However, soon, Hailey realized that Jordan didn’t need to play those familiar songs from the past because she just needed to hear him play and have him by her side.
Any tune he played could captivate Hailey and bring her back to that good old days.
Jordan played a tune he had only recently heard— “Revolutions” by Capo Productions.
The night was getting darker, and the colorful lights on the Christmas tree inside the living room were blinking rhythmically.
Jordan played the piano with both hands. This was a piece that had an extremely beautiful, serene, and therapeutic melody.
In less than a minute, Hailey, who had been suffering from insomnia for a long time, drifted off to dreamland while listening to Jordan’s playing.
After a while, Sylvie came out after cooking and saw Hailey sleeping on the couch. A heartened smile appeared on her face.
Sylvie looked at Jordan and said, “Jordan, it’s been a long time since Hailey has slept so soundly. You’re the only one who can let her sleep so well. Remember to come tomorrow.”
“Yes.” Jordan regarded it as piano-playing sessions since there was only a month left until she went into labor.
Besides, Jordan was playing the tune for his baby, not Hailey.
“I’ll get going now.”
When Jordan saw that Hailey had fallen asleep, he left. Sylvie didn’t ask him to stay for dinner either.
Just like that, a month pa.s.sed.
Soon it was the 1st of February of the new year, a day that was extremely important to many people.
It was extremely important for Jordan, Hailey, and Cayden!
Reason being it was the day Hailey would be going into labor!
…
In the women’s and children’s hospital in New York.
Hailey had been wheeled into the operating room, and in a short period, their baby would be delivered!
Cayden, Shane, their parents, Benedict, and Sylvie were all waiting outside the delivery room in the hospital!
Of course, as the child’s father, Jordan was also there with Victoria.
However, the two were standing farther away.
“G.o.d bless that both Hailey and the baby are fine.”
Sylvie closed her eyes and prayed.
Jordan stood at a distance, looking at the two families who were getting all anxious. He said to Victoria, “Is it inappropriate for us to be here? Our presence seems a bit redundant.”
Victoria laughed and said, “Your child is being born. How is your presence redundant? I’m a little redundant, but I still want to see the moment you become a father with my own eyes.”
“Thank you, Victoria. You are so magnanimous.” Jordan held Victoria’s hand, incredibly grateful to have a girlfriend like her.
If a scheming and petty woman were to find out that her boyfriend’s ex-wife was giving birth to their child, she’d definitely be furious.
At this moment, Sylvie suddenly exclaimed, “Ah! The baby has been delivered! Hailey has delivered!”
Jordan was extremely agitated.
‘Has Hailey finally given birth? Have I finally become a father!?!’
