Chapter 609
Sherri gently patted Hackett's arm and requested him to set her down, but Hackett didn't have any
response after she patted his arm once. Therefore, Sherri repeated the action.
"Please, put me down. Ava is about to give birth, and I need to get to the hospital right now. Hackett,
oh, come on!" Sherri, feeling anxious to reach the hospital, exclaimed.
When Hackett finally snapped out of his blankness, he was bewildered and speechless. He hadn't fully
awakened just now, and when the room erupted into a loud commotion suddenly, his initial thought was
that there might be an earthquake. He rushed out of the room, carrying his wife, only to realize it was
just music blaring.
This experience truly shocked him.
Even the Lithern Club wouldn't dare to blare such music so loudly. If Frank were to play such music in
the Lithern Club like this, many people would surely end up deaf in a single night.
Yet, what was the deal with this music? And why was Sherri hiding her phone under her pajamas?
Since when did she have such a peculiar hobby?
Hackett had never known about that, and his mind was filled with questions.
Sherri had already hopped down from Hackett's arms to change her clothes, instructing him to close
the door at the same time. Despite the early morning hour and the likelihood of no one coming in, she
wasn't keen on the idea of leaving the door open while changing.
After Hackett closed the door, he came to Sherri again and stood by her side, eager to address the
doubts swirling in his mind. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
"Look at your confused face," Sherri remarked as she changed. "That was just a small stereo
connected to my phone. I paired it with Bluetooth before going to bed. If someone calls me in the
middle of the night, the stereo rings."
Hearing this, Hackett examined the stereo at the head of the bed. Picking it up, he inspected it closely.
"Isn't it just a dolphin-shaped lamp you bought before? So, it's actually a stereo?"
Sherri, now dressed, urged Hackett to drive her to the hospital, since her driving speed resembled that
of a snail, fearing that Ava might experience much pain. If Ava did have any discomfort, she might end
up facing being fired by Frank.
"Change your clothes first. I'll explain later. The one you just took is also a stereo. Also, it's not a
dolphin but a colorful bird with a cute name. Rose specially chose it for me." Sherri was dressed neatly.
She hadn't planned to put on makeup. After all, it was the midnight now.
Sherri leaned against the wardrobe and reached out to help Hackett put on his clothes. "Isn't it difficult
for us to wake up once we fall asleep? I was afraid that I might miss Ava's call when she was about to
give birth."
Hackett finally understood the first question in his heart. He quickly put on his clothes and went out with
Sherri briskly.
Because he was in a hurry, Hackett didn't even comb his hair. He smoothed his hair casually with his
fingers as he walked towards the parking space.
In the car, the engine roared to life. Hackett stepped on the accelerator and accelerated the car.
"What's wrong with you hiding your phone under your pajamas when you sleep in the middle of the
night? Can't I satisfy you on the bed?"
Could it be that his skills were too bad on the bed? That shouldn't be the case.
Seeing that Hackett had misunderstood, Sherri tidied her clothes and pinched Hackett's earlobe. She
smiled and said, "Don't misunderstand. You're very great. Can't you feel it?"
Thinking back to Sherri's reaction during the sex, she always begged him to stop. It didn't seem like
she was unsatisfied.
Sherri continued to explain, "I was just afraid that I wouldn't react if I left my phone too far away from
the bed, so I hid it under my pajamas."
Hackett felt a bit speechless. He had to admit that Sherri was really a responsible doctor that she could
even thought of this point.
At this moment, he was convinced by Sherri.
Two cars drove from different places to Athana Hospital. In the other car, Tom felt that he finally could
see the hope and didn't have to take turns working the night shift anymore.
Forty minutes later, two cars arrived at Athana Hospital in succession.
Frank's car had just stopped in the parking space when Hackett's car followed closely behind and
stopped at the side. This was the difference between the suburbs and the city.
Grace got out of the front passenger seat and helped to open the back seat. Frank carefully helped Ava
out and reminded her worriedly, "Be careful."
Sherri rushed out of the car. "Hello, Mrs. Roberts, Ava. How are you feeling now? Has the labor pains
increased?"
Grace nodded in response to Sherri. Originally, William had planned to come with them together. He
had already dressed, but Grace insisted that he stay behind.
After all, after Ava went to the hospital, she wouldn't give birth immediately. Moreover, women didn't
have a favorable experience during childbirth. During the checkup, they had to lift their clothes and
remove their pants, making it inconvenient for a man to enter or leave the room. Grace was concerned
about Ava's potential embarrassment, so she simply asked William to stay home and wait.
She instructed William to come over before Ava entered the operating theater. She also gave him a
task and let him call Daniel to inform them that Ava was about to give birth.
If Daniel and the others were told to come over at this time, it would happen to coincide with Ava's
checkup completion when they arrived. Grace had already calculated the approximate timing.
Ava shook her head in response to Sherri and said, "No, just a little pain."
Sherri made the arrangements with a serious expression, looking no longer as causal as usual.
"Alright, what about the ward?"
She turned to Frank and asked about the ward.
Frank replied, "I booked it in advance. Trevon has taken care of it long ago."
Hackett slowly exited the car and approached Sherri, but before he could say something, Sherri asked
him to go back, stating she was heading to work. She added, "Hackett, you can go back. Your mother
will need help when Ruby and Liam wake up." Additionally, Rose was pregnant again.
Seeing his wife's determined expression, Hackett became serious and said to Frank, "Alright. Call me if
you need anything. Bye, Mrs. Roberts."
Meanwhile, Grace opened the trunk to retrieve something, and Tom promptly took the suitcase from
her. Grace replied, "Sure, take care."
Frank also replied, "Bye."
Tom retreated into the car to catch up on sleep after delivering the items to the VIP ward upstairs,
thinking that Frank might need his help for something later.
Upon Sherri's arrival at the hospital, she went to the consultation room to change her clothes.
Afterward, she assisted Ava with the admission procedures and prepared the checklist for the day.
In the VIP ward, Frank arranged for Ava to lie on the hospital bed. The white bedsheets appeared
clean, but Frank worried they weren't warm enough.
He was always concerned that Ava would feel uncomforble.
As soon as Sherri entered, she closed the door and examined Ava. She touched Ava's belly and felt
the babies' position to determine when the baby would come out.
However, this was only an estimate. The specifics still needed to be determined by an ultrasound.
While she was conducting the examination, Frank and Grace were silently waiting aside. Frank pursed
his lips and did not say anything. He was actually very nervous, but he did not disturb Sherri and just let
Sherri check quietly.
Grace could feel her son's tenseness as she stood beside him. She patted Frank's shoulder without
saying anything, but Frank understood that Crace was trying to tell him to relax.
Sherri gently touched Ava's belly and pulled up her underwear to check if there was blood. She lowered
her head and asked, "Are you preparing to give birth yourself? According to your examination report,
you can have a natural labor."
Ava had always been checked in Sapphire City before during her pregnant. After going back to Athana,
she had been checked only three times. However, the previous records had all been brought over.
Grace and Frank wanted Ava to have a caesarean section, since they were afraid that Ava might not
be able to have a natural labor and would still had to have a caesarean section in the end, which might
let Ava suffer more pain.
After about half a minute of silence, Ava made a decision and said, "Sherri, I want to have a cesarean
section."
If Ava were someone else, Sherri might have suggested her a natural birth. However, she didn't
recommend it for Ava. After all, if Ava's labor didn't go well, Sherri was afraid that Frank would become
insane, blow the whole Athana Hospital off, and kill her.
She only wanted to help Ava deliver the babies, not to die.
"Alright, bring Ava for these tests. There's a slight bleeding. Don't be nervous. After these tests, we'll
schedule a specific surgery time."
After the examination, Frank helped Ava down from the bed. "I need to use the restroom," Ava said.
Grace looked around and nodded. "Okay, Sherri, please assist with Ava's checkup. I need to leave and
buy something now."
Sherri replied, "Okay, Mrs. Roberts. Don't worry." Meanwhile, she couldn't help but think in her heart
that Grace and Frank truly doted on Ava.
When Ava came out, Grace had already left. Fortunately, Tom had not left. Ava placed one hand on the
side of her waist. "Has Grace left?"
Frank supported her. "She went to buy something."
Ava then said, "I forgot to tell my mother and the others. Frank, please inform my parents that I'm about
to give birth. Otherwise, they will be upset if they miss it."
Frank replied, "William has already informed them." At this moment, his mother-in-law and the others
should already be on the flight.
"Oh, alright. Let's go for a checkup. It's fine. I'm not scared." Actually, Ava was a little fearful, but she
worried that Frank might be even more nervous if she showed any fear.
Sherri comforted her. "It's okay. Just trust me. I have great medicine skills."
After over an hour of examination, Sherri took the examination sheet and confirmed the surgery time.
The anesthesiologist spoke with Ava for a while.
After the conversation, Ava returned to the ward and noticed a change in the environment. The pristine
white bedsheets, blankets, and pillows had been replaced with a milky yellow four-piece cotton set,
adorned with cute patterns. Reаd at Dramanovеls.com
Ava expressed gratitude softly, saying, "Thank you, Grace."
Grace replied, "Frank thought of it. He was concerned you might not be accustomed to sleeping here."
Hearing this, Ava was surprised and felt deeply touched. She smiled sweetly. "Thank you, honey." It
was the first time Ava called Frank "honey" in someone else's presence.
Frank was delighted, outwardly composed but internally excited. He nodded and said, "Well, it's good
you like it."
Grace stood on the other side. "I will also keep you company."
This matter had been discussed a few days ago but was rejected by Ava. When Frank brought it up,
Ava's refusal became even stronger.
Usually, Frank couldn't bear seeing her hurt. If he witnessed her undergoing surgery, he would be
heartbroken.
Ava firmly shook her head and said, "There's no need. I'm really not scared. Really."
Frank remained silent, seemingly neither intending to contradict Ava nor disagreeing with her
arrangements. He just sat there quietly.
