Chapter 1331


    Matilda didn’t want to go up against Sophia now, so she just winked at John. He didn’t go out by himself, but instead, he took out his phone


    and sent a message.


    Sophia was in so much pain that she was barely conscious. She felt a buzzing in her mind as many chaotic images appeared alternately, and


    she couldn’t even figure out where she was at a certain moment.


    After a wave of pain passed, Sophia gasped for air, and then in a trance, she felt as if she saw someone.


    The man stood not far from her, and his slightly rickety figure was d in old linen clothes. He looked at her and smiled. Seeing him, Sophia


    felt like she was standing on the ground and slowly walked toward the figure as she whispered, “Grandpa.”


    The man didn’t speak; he just looked at her and continued smiling, after which Sophia reflexively held her belly with one hand as she walked


    a little faster. “Grandpa, are you here to see me?”


    After walking forward a few steps, Sophia pursed her lips, looking like she was about to cry. She could see the person in front of her very


    clearly. It was how her grandfather looked before he became very old.


    Sophia had already forgotten what her grandfather looked like when he was healthy. In the end, the old man was so tormented by his illness


    that he had been reduced to a disfigured and frail sack of bones. Sophia’s memory of him, except for what she saw in photos, stayed at that


    time.


    The old man was wearing rubber shoes on his feet. He walked two steps toward Sophia and looked down at her belly.


    At the sight of him approaching, Sophia felt her tears threatening to overflow out of her eyes. She didn’t know what else to say, so she


    repeated, “Grandpa.”

    John heard Sophia mutter something next to him. In order to get what she was saying, he hurried over and put his ear to Sophia’s lips.


    After hearing what Sophia said, John paused and then let out a long sigh.


    Sophia’s hallucinations didn’tst long. The next time the pain struck, the image of her grandfather disappeared. Frowning, she tried her


    hardest to curl up. John felt very distressed at the sight of her suffering. Turning his head to look at Matilda, he suggested, “Let’s get the


    doctor toe over and give her a C-section. Her cervix hasn’t dted for so long, and we don’t know how long she’s gonna suffer for.”


    Matilda didn’t take John’s suggestion to heart. “This is how a woman gives birth to a child. If it’s a natural birth, she’ll suffer now but recover


    quicker. If it’s a C-section birth, she’ll definitely suffer moreter. Although there is no pain during the surgery, there will be many more post-


    surgeryplications, and it also negatively affects the body morepared to natural birth. Be patient now. After a natural birth, she’ll


    recover quickly. If you opt for surgery right now, you’re harming her instead of helping her.” John frowned. Right now, he couldn’t even bear


    to look at the writhing Sophia. Matilda went on to say, “The first birth is usually harder. It’s normal. The next one will be easier.” “One is


    enough. I don’t dare to think about the next one,” John said at once. Matilda shook her head with a smile.


    “You say this now, but perhaps when you see this child all lovely and cute, you may be eager for a second one.” Raising his eyebrows, John


    looked at Matilda. “Then did you think of having another child back then?” “I did consider it when you were very lively and cute. I liked you


    so much that I wanted to have another baby just like you.” Matilda writhed her lips and continued, “But at that time, your dad was busy, so I


    decided to talk about itter. But after some time, you became very annoying, so I didn’t want another baby anymore whenever I looked at


    you.” John couldn’t hold back and cocked the corner of his mouth. Matilda’s eyes fell on Sophia. “But truthfully, I think you’re quite lonely


    over the years. If you had a younger brother or sister, you might develop a better temperament and know how to deal with the interpersonal


    rtionships around you. And there wouldn’t be so many conflicts between you and Sophia back then as well.” John squeezed Sophia’s hand


    in his palm. “When I was younger, I really wanted to have a younger brother or sister. As you said, I really felt lonely back then.” “That’s


    why.” Matilda smiled. “When you and Sophia want to have a second child, don’t dy it. When the first child bes naughty and


    mischievous, you may no longer feel like having more.” .
