Chapter 1452


    Lena sat by the bedside, holding Lina’s hand, and murmured, “Why isn’t it men who go through


    childbirth… Now you have to endure this pain.”


    “What are you saying?” Lina suppressed herughter, fearing her incision might open.


    “Isn’t it true?! Why should women bear all these pains?” Lena thought about her time teaching in the


    mountainous area and the plight of those girls from impoverished families. It stirred up a mix of


    emotions.


    “Sis, when I saw those girls during these past few months in the mountains… I couldn’t help but feel


    bad for them.”


    Lina responded softly. “Tell me about it.”


    “I don’t have much education, so I could only teach them P.E. there.” Lena chuckled. “But I noticed that


    these girls were still very restricted even during P.E. sses.


    “The people in that area have conservative mindsets. Some even believe that girls shouldn’t go to


    school. They don’t even have a decent pair of sports shoes. They wear hand-me-downs from their


    brothers that are either too small or too big, making it impossible for them to attend sses.


    “Then there are some girls who are promised to someone at a young age, waiting to grow up and


    marry into the other family in exchange for money. The money is kept for the boys in their families to


    use when they get married…


    “The healthcare conditions there are also underdeveloped. Some girls don’t even have sanitary pads. If


    they soil their clothes and return home, they’ll get scolded. Every time that happened, I wished I could


    drag the person scolding them out and give them a good beating!”


    Lina’s eyes were filled with emotions. She knew that Lena was not great at expressing herself, but she


    had an overflowing sense of justice and was extremely emotional. Having gone through hardships and


    being mistreated as a child, Lena particrly detested those who abused or mistreated girls.


    Lina felt a twinge of sadness and patted Lena’s hand.


    Lena added with a smile, “Luckily, our little baby is very fortunate to be born in your womb.”Books

    “Our?” Lina smiled.


    “Of course!” Lena said seriously, “I have a part in this. I’ll raise her with you!”


    Giggles and joy filled the room while two grown men stood stunned at the doorway, exchanging


    puzzled looks.


    “Chris, exin to me now. When did the child be hers?”


    Chris awkwardly smiled. “Well…”


    “It’s my daughter!”


    “Calm down… It’s my daughter too, alright? I’ll raise her with you, too!”


    “Get out!”


    “Oh, don’t forget about me!” Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.


    They turned around and saw Toph approaching them, illuminated by the sunlight. Arya stood beside


    him, smiling as she handed them a sealed envelope.


    “A small token of my affection. Zuko, you must ept it!


    “By the way, what were you talking about just now, raising her together? You mean the little princess?”


    Toph recovered to his carefree self. He patted his chest. “Leave it to Uncle Toph! Tell the little princess


    that Uncle Toph is rich! Uncle Toph’s sold hisic copyright! Hahaha…”


    “Oh, congrattions!” Chris’ eyes gleamed. “Let’s get the little princess a pair of gold bangles first!”

    “It’s on me!”


    Zuko wondered why so many people suddenly wanted to share in raising his daughter. –


    The birth of the little princess brought great joy to the Hamerton family, which had always been


    dominated by males andcking females. Not only were the uncles and aunts filled with adoration and


    envy, but her grandparents also could not get enough of her.


    Zephyr leaned over his granddaughter’s crib every day to entertain her. On the other hand, Cordelia


    had turned into a doting grandmother with a cleanliness obsession, setting all sorts of rules for Zephyr


    —he could not touch the baby’s face without washing his hands or go close to the baby without


    shaving.


    Cordelia used to turn a blind eye when he smoked, but not anymore—he could not even have a hint of


    tobo on him.


    Otherwise, his allowance would be cut!


    Zephyrined bitterly to his son, “Zuko, do you know what the worst your mother asks of me?”


    “What?”


    “She won’t let me breathe directly in front of my granddaughter!”
