Chapter 551

In the VIP ward.

Rose sat on the bed, eating the breakfast that Grace had ordered. Meanwhile, Juana and Grace’s breakfast was delivered by Edward himself.

Edward brought out an assortment of breakfast dishes and placed them in front of his mother and mother-in-law. Worried that his mother-in-law might not enjoy the food, he had specifically ordered the same types of dishes they usually had at the Roberts family villa.

As Grace came out of the room, her eyes immediately fell upon the breakfast spread on the table. She smiled faintly, feeling very satisfied with her thoughtful son-in-law. Meanwhile, Rose’s gaze was fixated on the scrumptious food before her.

Feeling a sense of longing, she couldn’t help but let out a sigh. “After giving birth, everything becomes easier, but the only thing I dislike is having to follow a restricted diet. There’s so much food I can’t eat. It’s truly torturous!”

Grace found a stool and sat in front of the breakfast table. She didn’t pay much attention to Rose’s words, knowing she was just complaining anyway.

Edward respectfully handed the fork to Grace. “Mom, here is the fork.”

“Yes, thank you,” Grace replied as she took over the fork.

Edward then handed a fork to Juana, who gratefully accepted it. Turning to her daughter-in-law, she spoke in a cheerful tone and said, “Rose, please bear with it for just a little bit longer. If it bothers you to see us eating other foods, I’ll join your diet from tomorrow onwards.”

Edward stood there, his gaze fixed on Rose, still clutching the fork in his hand, as he muttered with determination, “I’ll do it.”

Rose hurriedly waved her hand that was holding a fork and rejected, “Oh, it was just a joke. Don’t take it seriously. You don’t have to worry about it, after all, you guys didn’t give birth.”

“I wish I could,” Juana replied with a hint of sadness, “but I am too old to have another child.

Grace calmly picked up a piece of pizza as she helped her daughter defuse the situation with Rose. “You know Rose, she’s always saying what’s on her mind. She can be a bit blunt but don’t take it personally. Why don’t you finish your oatmeal first, Rose?”

Hearing her mom’s order, Rose immediately lowered her head and focused on the oatmeal, daring not to speak anymore. Indeed, what she said was kind of rude, and embarrassing.

Observing the guilty expression on his wife’s face, Edward couldn’t help but smile. His eyes then shifted to the cradle beside the bed, where their baby peacefully slept, filling him with a profound sense of contentment. “Just a few more days,” he softly murmured to Rose, filled with tenderness.

“Okay,” Rose replied softly. But when she saw that Grace and Juana were not paying attention, she playfully mouthed to Edward that she had just been joking. It was clear that she was just trying to find more people to play Euchre with.

Edward had been closely observing, and he received the message conveyed by her actions, which left him momentarily stunned. He hadn’t anticipated her seriousness in this matter.

When he was lost in his thoughts, someone gently opened the door and entered. In order to avoid disturbing the sleeping baby, Ava whispered in an almost inaudible voice, “Surprise…”

The entire dining table turned their attention towards the door as Frank and Ava entered the room, hand in hand.

Ava was in a blue oversized hoodie, leggings, white socks, and white training shoes, looking very sporty. Frank was dressed in a hoodie of the same design, paired with dark jeans. However, unlike Ava, he had opted for a pair of white shoes.
