“Th–the baby has gone back in!” The doctor wiped the sweat off his forehead with his elbow.1

“F*ck! Get that baby out of me!!!!” Jeslyn screamed in agony.

Maverick was looking in panic between his wife and the doctor who seemed to be shaking for whatever reason. Angered, he moved to the man at great speed and grabbed him by his coat.

“If anything happens to my wife, you’ll be sorry!” He threatened through gritted teeth. How the f*ck will a doctor be unsettled when life is slowly draining from his wife?!

Glancing at his wife one more time, she couldn’t scream anymore and was grabbing tightly onto the sheets with one hand while twisting her body.

“Damn, that baby! Perform CS, right now!!”

“No CS! Get the f*ck out of my way!” Matt shoved the doctor out of the

way.

“Matteo? You can’t do this,” Maverick tried to stop him.

“It’s been more than 30 hours, Lu Ren. At this rate, your wife might die even with CS.” Matt said while wearing gloves.

Maverick grabbed his shoulders and shook him. “And you? You aren’t healed. Your past will come haunting you again! Don’t you get it? I don’t want to lose you, nor my wife, Matteo!”

“It is time I face my fears like you’ve said… go, go give her emotional support. Talk to your baby and tell her it’s time to stop playing.” He took Maverick’s hands off his shoulders and strode to the doctor.

Maverick took a deep breath and decided to trust in his friend. He went down on his knees and started whispering sweet nothings into Jeslyn’s ear. While holding her hand with one hand, his other hand was on her stomach, caressing it.

Matt waited for her to gain more strength before getting to work.

With every push, pictures flashed through his mind, but the matter at hand was way bigger than his trauma. Matt kept on reminding himself that the woman and her baby were his best friend’s family. He continued to remind himself that a little mistake would kill them and his best friend will not be

able to bear it.

With those thoughts powering Matt’s focus, the flashing scenes and pictures started to disappear from his mind.

Meanwhile, on Jeslyn’s ring finger, the ring that had turned from yellow to black, has now changed to

white.

“The head is out! One more time, Jeslyn. Please push!”

Jeslyn shook her head tiredly. She couldn’t even find her voice anymore. She turned her gaze to her husband and for the first time, he was… weeping!

“Ahhh!” She cried and made the final push that brought the child out.

Jeslyn breathed out a deep and long sigh. At the same time, the rainborite stone on her ring turned to powder.

Outside the ward, Valen bolted to his feet. The system that hadn’t spoken to him in a while finally resurfaced.

[ Rainborite ore detected.]

“What’s that?”

[Your instrument for shaping the world. ]

“How do you mean?”

[Your Mission is to reshape the Country and make it paradise, as it used to be centuries ago. ]

“You must be insane!” The child sneered.

[ Either you accept, or your mom dies. Your choice.

“What?” Valen’s eyes

widened.

Nobody was surprised as they looked at the boy. They’ve noticed that sometimes he talks to himself, so they brought the matter to Maverick who told them what the matter was.

Inside the delivery room….

The baby In Maverick’s hands had her eyes shut, but her lips were stretched into a small smile.

She had just returned from being cleaned. When she came out, she didn’t cry but after the nurses massaged her, she cried a little and started smiling. Even now, the smile was still there.

“Can I?” Jeslyn stretched her hands.

Maverick gently placed the baby in her hands, Jeslyn smiled and kissed her on the forehead..

“Kaylus, you are very troublesome,” she whispered.

As if Kaylus heard, she smiled a little more.

“This child…” Matt closed his mouth.

Maverick invited Matt for a handshake, then pulled him into a tight hug. “Thank you,” he added.

Matt smiled and patted his back. “Thanks to you too…”

The good news was brought to the family and everyone was excited, however, Valen was sullen after. what the system said. He pulled his father to the side and told him everything.

“Your mother needs the ore,” He patted Valen’s hair.

Even though he had no idea why, he still nodded and accepted the system’s proposal.

The next day, Jeslyn started feeling somewhat and immediately spoke up. After she was tested, it was found that her system was shutting down.

It was an emergency, but the hospital didn’t seem to know what to do.

“Maverick, we need the Ore. ATOM had kicked in and this time, only the Ore can save her.” Matt reported.

“The Rainborite Ore has been located. It is five hours drive to the south–west.” Maverick said.

“Great. Please, let’s take her there immediately!”

Maverick called for his private jet and they immediately transported her to the destination.

Maverick couldn’t leave his wife alone, so he abandoned his empire to Rex, believing they’d return in less than three months.

Meanwhile, Fearless entertainment published a news that Jeslyn was in a coma, so fans don’t have to throw a tantrum like the last time.

At Doyenne’s hideout…

The woman was at the beach, relaxing and enjoying the men’s lustful gazes when her phone rang.

“Hello, Lady Sabrina?”

‘The child has been born and the rainborite ore is back. Go for the child, immediately!‘ “Finally.” She ended the call and beamed, “Hello, little one, mummy is coming to get you!”

For the next few weeks, Doyenne disguised herself as Lady Sabrina who approached Jeslyn as a fan who needed an autograph, looking for ways to enter the Lu mansion.

The security around the house was overwhelming. Even a rat won’t be able to escape if it manages to enter the compound.

The gate has more than twenty armed security men. If that was so, then how large will those in the compound be?

Seeing she couldn’t steal the child from the cradle, she decided to wait a little longer until the child starts schooling,

Meanwhile, Nanny Martha was brought back from Country Y to take care of the baby whose only means of communicating was smiling
