Almighty Father System-Chapter 357: Naming The Children.

With the children delivered, Leo Cardinal was faced with another obstacle in life. He didn’t even take the time to go and inaugurate the headquarter of the company. He stayed in the hospital and Lily had also taken a few days off from school to work along with her father.

Leo had sent Lily and Anastasia to handle the inauguration and to his surprise the people of the company were more than happy to see her and welcomed her with an even bigger fanfare. The members of the Sigil council were shocked but when Anastasia stepped forward to explain the circumstances, the people realized that Leo was not being arrogant.

However, even if he was to act arrogantly none of them would have been able to do anything against him, after all, he was not only the holder of a military position, and his Sigil level had grown to the silver level. Just one step away from gaining the national recognition and a death pardon.

This status gap was not the only thing that caused the people to be cautious when they approached the Cardinal Family, but they also had felt a chill creeping up their hearts when they recalled how Leo had assassinated Bishop Primal and Socrates. In the past nine months, the old and ailing Bishop Primal passed away from what seemed to be a natural death, while Socrate met a car accident in a foreign land.

Many people had an inkling that Leo was behind it but they haven’t been able to figure out how he did it. Well, it was simple, Leo had used the tool of corruption against the two people but he didn’t harm innocent.

...

At this moment, Leo was sitting in the special ward where Snow was resting, they have booked this place for the postnatal period. This was the best, their were doctors and nurses always ready to help and also there were many other mothers in the surrounding wards so the emotional adjustment was also very smooth.

Leo was rocking the little baby girl who had just taken a burp after being fed, and he asked, "Snow, have you thought of a name for them?"

The lady shook her head and said, "I thought you would have picked a name. When Lily had come, you were not able to speak so I had no choice but to pick a name myself. However, this time it is up to you."

Leo sighed and looking at his youngest in his arms he said, "See, Ma wants Baba to name you. Is it easy to name my brilliant darling on a whim? Won’t you hate me if you didn’t like the name growing up?"

The little girl as if aware of what he was saying smiled, and Leo smiled back at her. He then looked at Anastasia who was sitting on the couch and asked, "Ma, do you have any suggestion?"

The old lady thought for a second and asked, "Since you named Lily after a flower, why not name the youngest after a flower as well?"

Snow shook her head and said, "That is too generic Ma, Lily brought the freshness of a flower to our bleak life, and so she is Lily, but now that we have a prosper life, we should name our children something that signifies the journey we have had in these past few years."

Anastasia nodded and said, "I didn’t think that you had put this much thought in naming the children."

Leo thought about it and said, "I am called Leo Christopher Cardinal. My father wanted me to be the leader of the younger generation and lead the family to a new apex. My middle name is often thought as the same as my father, but actually, it is the name of the forefather of the Cardinal Family. So, I think, I would like to name the children in that fashion and at the same time, I would like to add a middle name to Lily’s name as well. What do you think?"

Snow was surprised and then she said, "Have you not seen Lily’s identity credentials?"

Leo raised his brow and Snow said, "Lily has a middle name, Lily Valeria Cardinal. When I met your mother, I learned that it was your maternal grandmother’s name and so, I named her Lily Valeria."

Leo was surprised and thought for a minute before he said, "Indeed, it was her name. Good choice." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Snow smiled and Leo said, "In the past few years, we have suffered a lot and so, we have grown a lot as well. These two little ones are the manifestation of our rise through struggle and ambition. Let second child be called, Julian."

He looked toward the second son, who was held by Snow and then saw his wife nodding, as he said, "While we have grown strong, we should always remember that the light we bask in must not be taken for granted, so the youngest will be called Elena."

Snow nodded again and said, "Good. The middle names, what have you thought about that?"

Leo thought and said, "My great grandfather was called Magnus Cardinal, he was a strong man and impeccable virtue. Many folks in the old village respected him and he worked hard to send my Grandpa to the city to study. This was what my dad told me, so I want Julian to adopt the character of a virtuous and hardworking human. Julian Magnus Cardinal, what do you think?"

Snow nodded hard and said, "Good name, very domineering and also strong. What do you think little one, do you like your name?"

The baby in her arms cooed a little and the people smiled, before Leo looked at the little girl in his arms and he said, "For you, my dear Elena, how do you like the sound of Elena Celeste Cardinal?"

The little girl smiled and moved her hands as if she enjoyed it. Snow smiled and Anastasia asked, "Leo, did you use the name of my mother?"

Leo nodded and replied, "Elena means torch and Celeste pairs well with it. Your mother was a notable character in the history of Stag Nation who led the people to explore the boundaries of textile business and saved many lives by providing them employment in the later periods of colonialism."

At this moment, Lily came inside the room and asked, "Baba, have you decided to name second and third?"

The people smiled at her address, and Leo handed the youngest to Anastasia before picking up his eldest and said, "Yes, my love. Do you want to know?"
