To the Love of My Life - Chapter 708
Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Chaotic Baby-Making (28)
After what she said, Ruby hesitated and wondered whether she should tell Steve that the three children are his.
Actually, she couldn’t blame herself for not telling him sooner. She had wanted to tell him half a month ago, but after he confessed his love to her and replaced Rusell Henris, he went to Lilliput for nearly half a month. When he came back, he neither answered nor called her back, and even went on a blind date. Although that blind date eventually resulted in her premature delivery due to emotional excitement.
Now that the children have been born, she no longer needs to worry about Steve not wanting them. Anyway, what’s done is done, and he couldn’t possibly kill these three living beings. However, she doesn’t worry, but it doesn’t mean that she doesn’t care about the contraceptives he gave her.
Therefore, this account must be settled. But she will wait until her body is mostly recovered and settle it with him properly!
After thinking about it, Ruby eventually decided to wait until her body was better before discussing this issue with Steve. She handed his phone back to him: “I want to rest now.”
Steve quickly took the pillow, which Ruby used when she was leaning against the bed, pulled it out from behind her, and made her lie down on the bed, covering her with the quilt.
Steve’s actions were gentle and caring, just like a husband taking meticulous care of his wife who had just given birth. A warmth rose in Ruby’s heart, and she couldn’t help but lift the corners of her lips, then she closed her eyes.

The next day, the anesthesia effect had dissipated, and Ruby felt a throbbing pain in her abdominal wound. However, after experiencing the tearing pain of childbirth, she found the pain in her abdomen tolerable.
When the doctor came to check on her in the morning, he encouraged her to put on a binder and get out of bed for some activity. Thus, under Steve’s accompaniment, Ruby carefully got out of bed.
The moment her feet touched the ground, excruciating pain set in, almost causing Ruby to fall. She steadied herself and walked cautiously around the room before returning to bed. Then, she picked up her phone, called Lady Gregory, and told her she had given birth. Within two hours, Lady Gregory arrived at the hospital.
Since Ruby and Steve’s wedding had been canceled and the two families were neighbors, they often saw each other. However, both families usually tried to avoid situations where Steve and Ruby would meet so as not to cause awkwardness. Therefore, Steve left the hospital for his company before Lady Gregory arrived.
Lady Gregory and Maxwell Gregory stayed at the hospital for most of the day, making sure Ruby received special care before they felt satisfied and left.
Before leaving, Lady Gregory even went to the nursery and took many photos of her three grandchildren as she couldn’t stop smiling.

Life in the hospital was monotonous and tasteless. At first, Ruby’s days were filled with getting IV drips, getting out of bed, and resting. When she was awake, she would look at the photos of her three babies, either taken by Lady Gregory or Steve.
Under the special care of the hospital, in just seven days, Ruby’s wound had mostly healed, and she could walk and get out of bed by herself. When she had nothing to do, she would accompany Steve or Lady Gregory to the nursery to play with her three babies.
Once her wound started to heal, Ruby’s body began to recover quickly as well.
