Chapter 1992 Closed Door
When Anderson let go, he unconsciously took a step back. The atmosphere became somewhat
awkward for a moment. Jacqueline''s lips twitched, feeling a bit lost and embarrassed. Joyce thought
Anderson was being too sensitive, but she couldn''t control his reactions.
"Grandma, you can also hug me," Alisha called out, breaking the tension. Jacqueline was thrilled
and hurried to hug Alisha. Shelly rxed and said to Luther, "Brother, having a daughter is truly a
heartwarming blessing. Congrattions on having both a son and a daughter." Luther replied,
"Thank you for taking care of Mom during this time. I will need your help in the future too. I''m usually
very busy and finding time is difficult." "Brother, you can take care of sister-inw and the kids.
Mom''s condition is in good hands with me, so you don''t need to worry," Shelly promised eagerly.
Luther nodded.
After Jacqueline hugged Alisha, she walked up to Joyce, her expression kind and grateful. "Joyce, I
don''t know what to say, but I truly appreciate you. The Luo family is blessed to have a daughter-in-
law like you. Giving birth to four children, you''ve worked hard. How''s your health? Do you need any
help during your postpartum recovery?" Joyce gently shook her head, "Mom, I''m fine. Everyone
takes good care of me." "Oh, that''s good," Jacqueline said, feeling relieved as she smiled and
looked around. "Where are Wilson and Cullen? Why haven''t I seen them?" Joyce smiled and said,
"They''re in the nursery. With so many people gathered in the hall, I''m afraid it might disturb them.
Let''s go see them now." "All right," Shelly said eagerly, pping her hands. "I can''t wait to see them.
Sister-inw, you''re amazing - giving birth to a pair of twins. You''ve enlivened the Luo family." Joyce
smiled and remained silent.
Cecelia led the group to the nursery door and said, "Let''s take turns going in to avoid having too
many people in there and startling the children." Huffman quickly added, "Ladies first. I''ll be thestProperty ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
one to go in and see the children." "We can chat separately here, leaving the room to the women,"
Luther gestured for Huffman to join him on the terrace. He wanted to discuss with Huffman about
his mother''s future treatment n.
"That''s perfect, thank you, brother-inw," Huffman nodded quickly. As soon as all the men left,
Cecelia gently pushed the door open. She entered Wilson''s room first. Wilson was awake, and Aunt
Liu was holding him. Seeing Cecelia, Aunt Liu whispered, "Madam, Master Wilson just woke up.
He''s been fed." Joyce approached, took Wilson from Aunt Liu, and cooed, "Wilson, little darling,
you''re awake." Wilson seemed to understand, stretched his limbs, and kicked his legs. When he
looked at Joyce, his lips curled slightly, as if he was smiling. "Oh, he''s smiling," Aunt Liu eximed
excitedly, because Wilson rarely smiled, and only when he was with his mother and very happy.
Joyce was delighted, holding Wilson close.
Jacqueline came closer, staring at Wilson, "It''s been a long time since I''ve seen a baby. He''s so
small and adorable. Can I hold him?" Shelly also gathered around, eager, "Sister-inw, I want to
hold him too, can I?" Joyce hesitated, not because she was ufortable, but because Wilson
couldn''t be held by just anyone. But she didn''t want to reject Jacqueline, which would have made
her seem resentful of the past. Cecelia said, "Let Grandma try." Joyce nodded and handed Wilson
to Jacqueline. Shelly held her breath, excited, "Mom, be careful and gentle with him. Don''t make
Wilson ufortable." Jacqueline gave Shelly a stern look, "Even though Luther didn''t grow up
under my care, you were raised by me. Do you think I can''t handle a child? Can''t even hold one?
You underestimate me too much." But as soon as Jacqueline held Wilson, he suddenly started
crying loudly, as if he was surprised. Jacqueline was puzzled; did she really not know how to hold a
child? Shelly snorted, "I told you that you can''t hold him, see, Wilson is crying. Let me do it." She
snatched Wilson from Jacqueline, held him carefully and even walked around the room, trying to
soothe him, but Wilson continued to cry and refused to stop.
Joyce had no choice but to take Wilson back into her arms. Once Wilson was back in his mother''s
embrace, he immediately stopped crying. Jacqueline gave Shelly a sideways nce, "I can''t hold
him, can you? You''ve never had children. What''s with the bravado?" Shelly fell silent, not saying
another word. Jane watched the scene and thought to herself, Wilson recognizes people. Even
though they''re family, it''s clear that Wilson doesn''t want his grandmother and aunt. It''s quite strange.
Cecelia felt awkward, thinking that Jacqueline and Shelly should be epted by Wilson due to their
blood ties. After all, it was the first time she held Wilson, and he wanted her immediately. She
thought Jacqueline should be able to do the same. She didn''t expect Wilson to reject them. She
couldn''t reveal that Wilson could recognize people. Not everyone was allowed to hold him.
At this point, Joyce had to intervene, "Wilson is shy; please don''t mind. He''s still very young." "It''s
okay, just seeing him makes us happy," Jacqueline quickly waved her hand. "Is Cullen in the next
room? Can we see him?" Joyce handed Jane Wilson and said, "Of course you can,e with me."
When they arrived at Cullen''s room, Cullen was already awakened by themotion caused by
Wilson''s crying. Cullen seemed annoyed at being woken up, kicking his legs and iling his arms in
his crib, venting his frustration. Shelly said, "Wow, Cullen is so lively." Jacqueline added, "Yes, it
seems Cullen is more active." After the earlier experience and with Cullen being upset, Jacqueline
and Shelly dared not mention holding Cullen, fearing another rejection.
Joyce thought to herself that Cullen didn''t mind being held by anyone. It''s a pity they didn''t ask.
When they left the nursery at the end of the visit, Jacqueline and Shelly gave both children red
envelopes, all entrusted to Joyce.
