Everyone kept talking one after another. Annabeth Cates nearly forgot all about her pain from delivering.“All right, Annabeth. You’ve been holding the baby for too long now," Sharon Lindt said. "Give her to me. Also, you shouldn’t be sitting up for so long. It puts some strain on your waist.”With that, she promptly took Candice Batton from the mother before shooting a glance at Josh Batton. “What are you looking at? Help your wife lie down.”Hearing her order, Josh obediently helped Annabeth lie down.Seeing how anxious they seemed, she began to feel like a full-grown baby.“Mom, aren’t you exaggerating a little? Lots of new mothers can move about right after delivering their babies. Most foreigners do so,” she voiced out helplessly.“You silly child," Sharon said with a shake of her head. "We’re different from foreigners. Our ancestors have been practicing this for thousands of years. Nothing can go wrong if you follow their teachings.“Anyway, you have to heed my advice, d

“Annabeth,” Sharon Lindt paused, watching Annabeth Cates with an affectionate look on her face.“Yes, Mom, go on,” Annabeth said curiously.“Thank you for giving us such an adorable granddaughter. You’ve contributed a lot to our family,” she went on earnestly.Perhaps she had too many sons herself, hence she'd always preferred girls.She was very happy to have so many granddaughters now.“Mom, your family has been so good to me. It’s only right that I offer you grandchildren in return,” Annabeth told her.“We’ve all witnessed how much you've suffered. We’ll treat you even better from now on,” she stated.“You’ve already been good enough to me. I don't think you have to do more.”“That won’t do. We can always do more,” she insisted, making Annabeth laugh.Shortly after, Josh Batton finished preparing the bottle for Candice Batton, so he went to carry her into his arms and started to feed her on the couch.Meanwhile, Sharon went to get some water to wipe Annabeth’s face and bod

Similarly to his wife, Josh Batton also meant what he said from the bottom of his heart. He wasn’t holding back any of his genuine thoughts.Annabeth Cates's gaze softened upon hearing his words, feeling touched as her eyes reddened without her realizing it.The reporters shared her feelings, especially the female ones who were naturally more sentimental.Everyone knew Josh well and believed that he’d never lie.At that moment, they felt even more envious of his wife.Then, some reporters shifted their attention to Sharon Lindt and Xyla Quest—“Ms. Quest, I heard that you’ve practically been around every single day since Ms. Cates gave birth. Are you very close to her?”“Ms. Lindt, Annabeth just gave birth to an adorable baby girl. How do you feel? I heard you’ve been taking care of her these days, haven’t you?”Annabeth continued to smile as she handed the microphone over to her mother-in-law.Sharon smiled and glanced at everyone. “Of course, I’m happy and excited, too. I ho

Peggy Howards instantly shook her head at that. “No, you’re already doing so much to look after Annabeth. You don’t need to worry about us. Since we’ve seen our daughter and granddaughter, it's better to head back since there’s not much to do here.”Josh Batton was also reluctant to let them leave. “Dad and Mom, please don’t leave so soon. You can spend more time here with Annabeth.”“Yes, spend more time with me, won’t you?” Annabeth Cates asked.“You have Josh's parents here with you, and they’re more than enough. You’re going through postpartum recovery," Peggy told her. "There are so many people here, and there’s nothing we can do to help out. If we stay, you would have to look after us, too, so forget it.”Seeing that her parents had already made up their minds, Annabeth didn’t say anything further because she knew exactly what they were thinking.Even Sharon could see how determined they were, so she didn't argue. Instead, she turned to look at Wilson Batton. “Honey, go and

Annabeth Cates felt so helpless when she saw part of her phone sticking out of Sharon Lindt’s pocket but managed to suppress her urge.It’d all be fine after her postpartum recovery.Beep, beep, beep—Josh Batton’s phone started ringing right then, so he instantly answered.It was Georgie Clementine.“Hey, Josh. Atlantis TV plans to kick off a variety show about a couples’ daily life. They think your family will be perfect for this show since your daughter was just born.“Would you be interested? You don’t need to do much to participate, only to live your life normally. The production crew will go over to your house to film your life.“All three of you are very popular right now. Moreover, your fans are also asking for you to participate in shows like this.“Mainly, it’s because they want to watch your daily interaction as a family. Also, many of them haven’t seen you for the longest time, and they miss you.“What do you think? Would you like to take part?” she asked.“I thin
