Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law-Chapter 601 Double Happiness Arrives (4)_1

"No."

"Grandma, Julia has been in there for quite a while, hasn't she? Why hasn't she given birth yet? Are you sure everything is okay?"

"Nothing will go wrong. Julia and Adele Horne will both be fine. Julia hasn't even been in there for an hour yet, and Adele just went in. You know, the first childbirth usually isn't that quick, Glades. Stop overthinking everything. Calm down; you're the most unsettled man waiting outside the delivery room."

The old lady once again patiently comforted him.

Glades Horne fell silent once more.

He really wanted to calm down, but he couldn't.

Every minute and second now felt like an eternity to him.

He couldn't see how Julia was doing inside the delivery room.

About an hour after Julia had entered the delivery room, a nurse walked out.

"How is Julia doing?"

As soon as someone came out, whether it was a doctor or a nurse, Glades Horne stretched out his large hand, grabbed the nurse, lifting her slightly, his handsome face stern as he moved closer to question her.

"Glades!"

The old lady called out, a headache forming.

Mila Anderson and her husband hurriedly went forward to pull his hand away, rescuing the nurse from his grip.

The nurse was somewhat shaken; as soon as she came out, her feet had left the ground, and she nearly had a heart attack from fright.

"Miss Nurse, I'm sorry, he's just too nervous. Is my daughter alright? Has she given birth?" Scarlett Taylor stepped forward, apologizing to the nurse while asking.

"She has given birth, just now. It's a boy, weighing six pounds eight ounces, very adorable. Mother and child are safe and healthy."

Upon hearing this, everyone became happy, and all the tension they had been feeling was relieved.

Glades Horne slumped onto a nearby chair.

"Glades," everyone called out softly.

A flush of embarrassment appeared on Glades Horne's handsome face. His intense anxiety and fear had just eased when he learned that his beloved wife and child were safe, and he went limp.

Having lived for thirty-three years and being in control of the vast Valence Group, he, who had never feared anything, was now afraid of his wife giving birth. Fortunately, he did not pass out.

"I'm fine!" he said hoarsely.

"Why hasn't Adele given birth yet?"

Happy that her daughter-in-law had given birth to a grandson and that they were safe, Mila Anderson began to worry about her own daughter.

Her daughter-in-law was fortunate; during childbirth, relatives from both the husband's and wife's families were waiting outside. But her own daughter, pregnant before marriage with no one knowing who the child's father was, was in labor now, and only she, as a mother, could worry.

A large hand reached out, and Gian Horne grasped hers, giving her strength and comfort. "Don't worry, our daughter will be fine."

Mila Anderson looked at him, then nodded. She didn't pull her hand away; at this moment, she needed support.

A little while later, Julia's baby was brought out of the delivery room first; Julia was still inside.

Mila Anderson held the baby. He appeared quite mature because he was born past his due date. His dark, expressive eyes darted about, just like Glades Horne's. Aside from his constantly moving eyes, the baby was even stuffing his tiny hand into his mouth, as if gnawing on it like a chicken leg.

"How adorable!"

Everyone gathered around and laughed when they saw the baby putting his little hand in his mouth.

Glades Horne only glanced at the baby; his entire focus was still on Julia.

The baby was dressed in hospital-provided clothing, with bracelets on his wrists and anklets on his feet, bearing his basic information. The little blanket wrapping the baby also had a tag with his information, indicating gender, birth time, weight, and the mother's name.

After the relatives had all seen the baby, he was taken to the Nursery Room.

Julia and Adele were staying in high-end maternity suites, which charged exorbitantly high fees, so most of them were empty. The Nursery Room also seemed very quiet and somewhat stark, with only three or four babies there.

Glades Horne had ordered two of the four bodyguards protecting Julia to stand guard outside the Nursery Room. The hospital was too large, and there were too many people; even in a high-end maternity area, it was necessary to prevent any sudden incidents.

After a while, Julia was wheeled out of the delivery room.

"Julia."

Glades Horne called out tenderly. Seeing Julia's pale face and the beads of sweat that hadn't yet dried on her forehead, he took hold of the hand that wasn't connected to an IV, his voice filled with heartfelt concern. "You've worked hard."

"I can finally get a good night's sleep now."

The first thing Julia said was related to sleep.

In the late stages of her pregnancy, she hadn't been able to sleep comfortably. Now that the baby was born, she felt relieved and relaxed, and this thought naturally blurted out.

The nurses pushed Julia into her Maternity Room.

Glades Horne followed her into the Maternity Room. The others followed as well, but seeing Glades's demeanor, they knew he wanted to be alone with Julia, so they tactfully turned back to wait outside the delivery room for Adele.

Adele's baby was born after Julia's because she entered the delivery room later. It was also a boy, weighing six and a half pounds, beautiful and cute. The baby didn't look much like Adele; he greatly resembled Noah Reyes. However, since neither family had ever seen Noah Reyes, they didn't know what he looked like. Seeing that the baby didn't resemble Adele, they guessed he took more after his father and imagined the biological father must also be handsome.

Unlike Glades Horne's son, who was sucking on his tiny hand, Adele's son was flailing his arms, his eyes also rolling about curiously.

These cousins, born at the same time and with nearly identical weights, were a sign that their personalities wouldn't be very different in the future.

With both Julia and Adele having given birth to sons, and everyone safe and sound, the Horne family was overjoyed, their smiles too wide to contain.

It truly was a double blessing.

After Adele was wheeled out of the delivery room and into her Maternity Room, the rest of the family and friends hurried to the Nursery Room to see the babies.

"How adorable! They're both so beautiful. Their skin is so fair; I can foresee that they'll be among the most handsome boys in the city," one of Glades's aunts said, laughing.

"These two lads, I don't know if they planned it, but they decided to come together."

The old lady was the happiest. Looking at Glades Horne's son, she found him extremely cute, and she felt the same seeing Adele's son, wishing she could hold one in each arm.

"Grandma, this is a true blessing! Double happiness. These two lads will definitely have a good relationship in the future. Just look at how close Julia and Adele are, like sisters," Henry Horne said, laughing as well.

The old lady turned her head to glance at him and said, "If you and Harry got married at the same time and your wives had babies at the same time, Grandma would be even happier."

"Grandma, don't focus on us two brothers yet. Turn your attention to our second and fourth brothers first," Harry Horne quickly deflected.

Everyone immediately turned their gaze towards Ruby Bluen.

Ruby Bluen said with a flushed face, "Why are you all looking at me?"

"Sister-in-law, perhaps you should consider giving our second brother a little soldier?" Harry Horne teased with a wink.

Ruby Bluen's face turned even redder. She would.

「Around the corner of the corridor in the distance」

Phoebe Rogers glared at the Nursery Room with sinister eyes.

Under Glades Horne's crushing retaliation, she had lost everything. Now, she was treated like a street rat wherever she went, despised and shunned by everyone. Gian Horne's financial support had also been cut off by Glades, leaving her without living expenses. For the past few months, she had been using her own savings, which were now nearly depleted. Most importantly, she was still trying to find her son.

Where had James Horne gone? She had spent a considerable amount of money hiring people to search for him but still had no news. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

In fact, James Horne wasn't hiding very far at all; a regular detective agency could have found him quite easily.

The reason Phoebe's hired investigators hadn't found him after so long was that Glades Horne had secretly intervened. He prevented them from telling Phoebe James's whereabouts and instead made them continuously demand more money from her, aiming to drain all her finances.

Now, having sold her car and some expensive furniture from her apartment, she was living off that money.

To have fallen to such a state, she loathed Glades Horne to the core.

She told herself that even if it meant dying, she wouldn't let Glades Horne have an easy time!
