The Seventh Miserable Bride
Chapter 255

The day after Lily Adams and her husband celebrated their son's first birthday, Scott Jules was having a bowl of soup during breakfast when Lily suddenly said, "Honey, I'm pregnant." Pfft...

Scott choked on his soup. He looked up in shock and stammered, "Are you... are you serious?"

Lily glared at him angrily, "What part of me look like I am joking?"

"But I thought that I had always used a condom. How was it possible for you to get pregnant?"

"Condoms are not 100% safe. Besides, there was one time where you did not wear it."

"When?"

"Last week, you were drunk that night. When you came home, you took off my clothes and we did it."

"I was drunk?"

"Yes."

"Then you should be sober at that time. If I wasn't wearing a condom, then you should have taken the birth control pills. Don't tell me you did not take the pills!" "Nope."

"Why not?"

Lily shrugged, thinking it was no big deal. "I forgot." Scott pinched his eyebrows and said earnestly, "How could you forget? Look at what happened now." "What happened? I'm just pregnant, that's all. I mean, if you don't want this baby then fine, you don't have to make a big deal out of this. I can abort it." "What do you mean by abortion? We can't get rid of the baby just because you accidentally got pregnant."

"That's the way it is."

Scott glared at her and sighed. "Forget it. We are going to keep the baby."

"No, we're not."

"Why not?"

"You don't look like you want the baby. You don't look happy, so I will not keep it."

Lily started to lose her temper. Scott put his arm around her shoulders and said grumpily, "You silly girl, why would I not want our baby? I just feel bad for you." "Feel bad about what? Don't try to fool me."

"I'm not fooling you. I mean it."

Scott's expression suddenly became serious. "I always felt sorry for you. Other women have their mother-in-law to take care of their baby for them, but you don't. You have been taking care of our son since the day he was born and it must be hard on you. If we have another baby, you'll be even more tired. As a man, I feel bad for you, do you understand?" Lily was startled and she pursed her lips into a smile. "You're the stupid one. Who says that I need a mother-in-law to love me? As long as you treat me nicely, I don't care whether I have one. I don't envy others for having a mother-in-law. What's wrong with raising our child alone? Although it's hard, it makes me happy. My mother gave birth to three children, and all three of us were raised by her alone. So, my dear husband, it doesn't matter. I'm willing to give you as many children as you want."

"Well then, let's have this baby."

Scott was moved and he hugged her closely. He kissed her cheek gently, "I hope this one will be a girl."

When Lily was four months along, Yasmine Taylor accompanied her to do an ultrasound. The result was gratifying. It really was a girl. When Scott came home that evening, she immediately told him the good news. Scott couldn't have been happier. He immediately sat down in front of the computer, "I'm going to do some research on baby girl names."

"Honey, don't make it too deep and meaningful. Actually, I like the name that Sebastian gave his kids, it's cute and easy to remember."

"What are his kids' names again?"

"Smiley and Chuckles."

"Huh, who would take those names seriously? I'm not surprised, it's really his style."

"Who says it's not serious? A child's name should be cute. Unlike Cameron's name, It doesn't sound cute at all. It sounds like an adult's name."

"Then why don't you name our daughter?" Lily shook her head. "Nah, I'm not good at giving names."

Scott smiled dotingly, "Alright then. I promise you that I will give our daughter a cute name."

"Okay, I'll wait and see."

"You should head over to the living room to watch TV first. I'll find you later when I think of a name."

"Alright."

After watching an episode of a series, Lily began to feel sleepy. It was true that pregnant women would get tired easily. She was about to take a nap on the couch when someone placed a cup of warm milk in front of her.

It was from Scott. "Did you forget to drink your milk again?"

She stuck out her tongue naughtily, "Thank you, honey."

"So, did you manage to find any good names?"

She asked curiously while drinking her warm milk. "Yes."

"What is it?"

"Bella."

"Bell?" Lily frowned, "What kind of name is that? It doesn't sound cute at all. What about Ball? That sounds cute, doesn't it?"

"Not Ball, it's Bella."

"I don't care whether it's Ball or Belle, I don't like it. Did you even put your heart into it? You're a headmaster. What kind of headmaster are you? You'd better resign and give up the position." Scott took a deep blow. "This name is so artistic, yet you don't like it at all?"

"I don't like it. I really don't like it."

"Well, I knew you might not like it, so I came up with another one."

"What is it?"

Lily's interest was sparked again.

"Arabella."

"Arabella?"

"Yes, it means beautiful and grace. Its actually a Scottish name whose meaning comes from the Latin word 'orabilis', which means 'prayerful'.

A bright light shone in Lily's eyes. "Hey, I like it. Arabella, beautiful and graceful. Well done, you've improved. I'll give you back your position as the principal for a few more years." Scott was rendered speechless, but there was a soft smile on his face.

Soon, Lily was nine months pregnant. Because this was their second baby, Scott checked her into the hospital a week in advance. The last time they had a baby, they were still flirting at home. All of a sudden, Lily had a stomachache but she thought it was not a big deal.

However the pain lasted until the et

middle of the night. She was in so muck pain, and their car happened to break down. Finally, they called Scott's father, who was on duty. He drove the police car to send Lily to the hospital. The scene was a mess. Lily gave birth to their son via natural birth, however, the doctor suggested a cesarean section this time. She had been feeling well during the entire pregnancy. She ate and slept well. They had hired a nanny to take care of their son so that she would not have to worry about him. By the time she was about to give birth, she weighed nearly 90kg. The ultrasound showed that the baby weighed 4kg. In order to avoid complications, they agreed to have the baby via

cesarean section.

Before entering the delivery room, Lily took her husband's hand with snot and tears on her face, "Dear, are we really doing this? Are you really going to let the doctor cut my stomach open?"

Scott rubbed his chest, "I wish that there's another alternative, but our daughter needs to come out."

"But it's going to leave a scar and people will know that I've given birth once they see the scar on my stomach..."

"Do you really think that other people would have to look at your stomach to know that you've given birth before?"

Scott looked at the freckles on her face.

"Honey, what do you mean? Why don't I understand what you're saying..."

The nurse pushed the gurney into the delivery room, while she still held on to Scott and looked at him in confusion.

"Alright, I'll explain it to you later once you're done. You can do it, honey!"

An hour and a half later, Lily successfully gave birth to a baby girl who weighing 4.14kg. She was very healthy and beautiful. The name Arabella suited her perfectly.

Three hours later, Lily came out of the delivery room and she was moved into a hospital ward. Scott held his daughter in his arms and was totally obsessed with her. He couldn't bear to give her up and even ignored Lily. Lily sat aside and gnashed her teeth with envy.

"Is this Ms. Lily Adams' ward?"

A delivery man stood at the door as he looked at the invoice and asked.

Lily blinked. "Yes, it is. What's the matter?"

The delivery man immediately handed her a bunch of red roses. "Someone sent you these flowers. Could you please sign here?"

"Who, who is it?"

Lily was flattered. Even her husband never sent her flowers. Who could have sent her these beautiful flowers?

"I'm not sure about this either. It comes with a card. You can open it up."

After the delivery man left the room, Lily picked up the card and opened it. Her little face bloomed into a smile, which was even more beautiful than the roses. The card stated, "Honey, thank you for giving me a beautiful daughter. I love you, forever and always."

She buried her face in the flowers. It smelled very nice and fresh. She loved it so much.

"Husband, since when did you become so romantic? I'm embarrassed now." "Honey, I wanted you to feel embarrassed. I don't want you to think that I neglected you because of our daughter. I love you both equally." When Arabella turned a month old, Scott passed the kids off to the nanny so that he could take Lily out.

Lily had been cooped up inside the house for the past month. Now that she could finally step out of the house, she was like a bird that was released from its cage. Her joy was visible to anyone. She held Scott's arm and asked, "Honey, where are you taking me?"

"We're going to eat."

"Why do we have to go out for a meal?"

"Of course to celebrate one very important day."

She tilted her head and thought about it. An important day? What was so important about today? It wasn't her birthday nor was it his. It wasn't their wedding anniversary either. So what day was it? Seeing her confused face, Scott said with a smile, "Stop guessing. Today is the day you're finally free."

"Huh?"

"It's been one month since you gave birth to Arabella. Don't you want to celebrate it?"

She giggled and pinched him. "You're annoying. You should have just told me. I thought that I have forgotten an important day."

After dinner, they decided to watch a movie. After that, they took a long walk along the park. When Lily was tired, Scott piggybacked her. They looked like a couple who was madly in love with each other.

Lily put her head on his back and looked at the bright moon hanging in S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

the sky. She felt that her life was exactly what she wanted. She was very happy. She had decided to take a chance on this marriage. At that time, she didn't know what would happen. However, looking at the result now, it was very gratifying. She knew she had made the right choice.

"Honey, how long are you going to carry me?"

"For the rest of my life."

"Won't you be tired?"

Scott chuckled. "No."

"Won't you get fed up with me?"

"No."

"Won't you regret it?"

"No."

"Then, I won't either."

"What?"

"I won't be tired, fed up, or regret anything that had happened."

"You're the best. Come on, give me a kiss."

"Hm, then you should give me a kiss too."

They didn't go home until midnight.

By the time they got home, the kids were already fast asleep. Lily decided to take a warm bath. She

eel

had been working out ever since she gave birth and her body was nearly

back to how it was before she got pregnant. When she came out of the

bathroom, Scott stared at her and couldn't keep his eyes off of her. His eyes slowly lit up with unconcealed lust.

"Honey, what are you looking at? I'm blushing."

Scott slowly moved towards her and breathed warmly on her face. "What do you think I'm looking at? I'm looking at you. Honey, you look so beautiful right now."

"Are you saying that I looked ugly before?"

"No, you looked beautiful then as well. However, I felt that I have never really taken a good look at you before. You have never looked as beautiful as you are right now."

She huffed. "Enough with all the sweet-talking. I'm not like those little girls who are itching to get into bed with you."

"If you were a little girl, I wouldn't dare to touch you. Thankfully, you are my wife."

Scott grabbed her waist and picked her up. She screamed and immediately covered her mouth. She patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Put me down. The nannies are in the house. I don't want them to

hear us going at it."

"How could they hear us when their room is so far away? Unless you can't control your screams?"

"What screams? Put me down. You're a lecherous man."

"I am not going to put you down. You already called me a lecherous man. I have to live up to it."

Outside the window, even the bright moon was hiding behind the clouds shyly. The room was full of ambiguous and beautiful colors. Their bodies and feelings were warmed up at the same time. The two of them leaned on each other's shoulders, holding on each other's hands. The man said, "My beloved wife, could you sing a song for me?"

Lily nodded and began to sing slowly, "I know your eyes in the morning sun. I feel you touch me in the pouring rain. And the moment that you wander far from me, I want to feel you in my arms again. And you come to me on a summer breeze, keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave, and it's me you need to show...."
