Unpredictable Betrayal : A Sweet of Revenge

Both of Alden’s eyes looked wet and swollen. He even cried softly as he accompanied Aurora for an hour through the childbirth process.

Since Aurora’s condition was stable and optimal, she delivered through a normal process as planned. Step by step, following Alissa’s instructions, Aurora tried to comply.

While tightly holding Alden’s hand, Aurora tried to complete the childbirth process. Until finally, the little angel they and perhaps the entire extended family awaited, was born safely, and her cry immediately filled the delivery room.

“Congratulations Aurora, Dr. Alden. The babies were born safely and healthy. The first one is a girl, and the second one is a boy. Their conditions are stable, and there’s nothing to worry about.”

Indeed, Aurora gave birth to twins today. Since entering the three-month pregnancy mark, Alissa had ensured that Aurora’s pregnancy was indeed twins. However, the gender was difficult to predict as it changed a few times.

Actually, Aurora and Alden didn’t mind what gender their babies would be. The most important thing was that both of them were healthy and born safely without any complications.

“How much do they weigh, Cha? Normal, right?”

Alissa nodded, smiling.

“Don’t worry, each of them weighs normally. The boy is 2. 9 kilograms. And the girl is 2. 7 kilograms. Big enough and healthy for twin babies.”

Alden smiled with emotion. Imagining again how tired and weary Aurora must have been carrying their rather big-sized babies. Alden never heard his wife complain or be sad. Instead, she was happy and content. She enjoyed every moment of her pregnancy until the time came to give birth.

“Thank you so much for your help,” Alden expressed sincerely. “Thank you for being willing to come in the early hours just to assist in Aurora’s childbirth.”

Alissa smiled widely, sharing in the happiness of what Aurora had just gone through.

“You’re welcome. All of this went smoothly also thanks to Dr. Regina’s help in handling Aurora’s condition before I arrived.”

Next to Alissa stood Regina. Since there was a night schedule previously, she saw Aurora being taken to the hospital, immediately assisting and providing help. She even accompanied and assisted Alissa in handling Aurora’s childbirth.

“Thank you very much for your help too, Gina. Thank you for giving the best for Aurora.”

“You’re welcome, Dr. Alden. I’m also happy about the birth of their children.”

Then Alden turned to Aurora. He looked at her. Then gently kissed her forehead.

“Congratulations, Honey. You’re amazing.”

Alden sounded praising. He kissed Aurora’s forehead and cheeks alternately. Several times, Alden also sounded thankful. Overwhelmed with happiness for the blessings that God had given.

After undergoing examination and confirmed that there were no problems, Aurora was immediately moved to the care room. Instead of immediately receiving the arrival of the extended family, Alden asked his wife to rest first while replenishing her energy drained during the childbirth process. Also, Alden had already asked his parents and in-laws to visit after Aurora’s condition improved significantly.

Around five in the afternoon, Elenna, Joshua, and Zendaya entered the care room. Shortly after, Asher also came along with Clara, Rayyen, and Alinna.

“Aurora… Honey….”

Elenna immediately hugged her. Even, she cried with emotion because she was so happy about the birth of her grandchildren.

“Don’t cry, Mom. Aurora is fine.”

Elenna let go of the hug. Her lips looked pouty.

“Mama was worried waiting for news from Alden.”

Aurora smiled. She was sure her mother must have been very anxious and worried about her condition. From the beginning, Elenna always reminded herself that she wanted to accompany Aurora when she underwent the childbirth process.

However, because she gave birth in the early hours, Aurora deliberately didn’t want to disturb her mother, who was probably resting.

“But, the proof is Aurora is okay, right?”

Elenna nodded.

“Still, Mama is annoyed with Alden. He didn’t allow us to visit you right away.”

“Yeah, to let Aurora rest first, Ma.” Asher answered. He seemed to defend his sister-in-law. “Besides the baby, the mother’s condition after childbirth also needs attention. Especially since this is a normal delivery. Surely a lot of energy has been drained. If after the childbirth process she immediately receives guests, she won’t have time to rest or recharge her energy. Does Mama want Kak Aurora to be tired and have baby blues?”

Elenna shook her head. She hugged Aurora and kissed her daughter repeatedly.

“Sorry for being impatient, Mom.”

“It’s okay,” Aurora replied softly. “I understand that you must have been really worried, Mom.”

Then it was Zendaya’s turn to approach. She was equally happy and joyful about the smooth childbirth process her daughter-in-law went through.

“Congratulations, Honey. Congratulations on the birth of your son and daughter. Mama is very happy and shares in your joy.”

Zendaya then shed tears. She couldn’t hide her overwhelming emotions for the endless blessings her family had received.

Moreover, Zendaya knew how hard Aurora struggled to conceive. She also remembered how her daughter-in-law had once been mocked by many people for being considered barren and unable to have children.

Now, who would have thought? Not only one, but Aurora was even blessed with twins at once, silencing the mouths of those who had underestimated her.

“Anyway, whatever you ask for, Mama will fulfill it. Don’t be shy or hesitant. Besides, all of this is nothing compared to your struggle.”

“Thank you, Mom,” Aurora happily responded. Grateful to have a good mother-in-law like Zendaya.

Then, it was seen that both of Aurora’s babies were being brought by a nurse. Elenna and Zendaya immediately competed, each carrying one of them.

“Aurora…” Elenna called out. While cradling her grandchild, she approached Aurora. “It’s okay if Mama stays at your house, right? So Mama can help take care of and watch over these adorable grandchildren.”

“Me too,” Zendaya chimed in, not wanting to be left out. Carrying the baby boy, she also approached Aurora. “Umi also wants to stay at your and Alden’s house. To help Bu Elenna take care of and watch over these cute babies. You just focus on recovering so you can quickly get healthy and return to your usual activities.”

Alden shook his head. He was amazed himself at the behavior of his mother and mother-in-law who seemed to compete to care for and nurture their grandchildren.

“Isn’t anyone willing to compete to take care of Alden?”

Elenna and Zendaya both turned.

“You’re already grown up, Al,” Zendaya retorted. “Besides, Mama and Mama Elenna deliberately help take care of the twins so you can focus on taking care of Aurora. Let’s just consider it as dividing the tasks.”

Actually, Alden was fine with it. He wanted to refuse, but he couldn’t bear to see both of his mothers so happy welcoming their grandchildren.

“Then, have names been prepared for the twins?”

Rayyen asked. He had been intentionally listening to the parents’ debate about who would take care of the cute babies.

“They have,” Aurora replied. “I’ve prepared names for both of them. I’ll announce them at their celebration event.”

Rayyen nodded.

“I thought they hadn’t had names yet. If they haven’t, I want to help find good names for the twins.”

“No need!”

Clara sounded rejecting. She quickly thwarted Rayyen’s well-meaning intention to help find names. However, Clara knew that Rayyen often acted mischievously. She had even been a victim of his pranks before.

“Don’t listen to him, Aurora. Rayyen is random when it comes to giving names.”

“Gosh, don’t slander,” Rayyen defended himself. “I’m serious about this too.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Ah, serious about what?” Clara argued back. “Remember when my child was born, you suggested random names. Like Mae Moon Ah. Cha Ah You. Next thing you know, Aurora’s child will be named So Lee Hin and Joo Min Ten.”

Rayyen burst into laughter, especially seeing Clara’s expression still holding a grudge against him.

“Ah, Clara. You’re no fun.”

“Whatever. Better than someone’s baby becoming a victim.”

Everyone in the room laughed. On the other hand, they were all so grateful for the presence of the two new members in their large family.
