Chapter 3258 Start Of A Golden Age?
"I heard a part of the story from Tanya. That's not your fault."
Davis's gaze became solemn as he firmly held Isabella's shoulders, "Don't you dare exchange yourself with anyone, even if it for our own daughter— although that could be debated depending upon the danger of the hostage exchange."
"…"
Isabella's heart felt warm as he didn't even bother asking why, but she went speechless as she heard him tell him not to exchange herself for their own daughter. So he could sacrifice himself for their children but not her? That made her face change as she became incensed.
She didn't want this privilege, but not wanting to aggravate him, she simply looked away and nodded her head.
"…?" Davis was confused by her reaction.
"Darling, I had an exotic dish ready for you, but Katherine ate it," Fiora said.
"Uh? Did I…? I mean, I did…"
Katherine's eyes moved here and there, panic visible.
"Husband, I bought a new gift for you, but I think I lost it when I showed it to everyone else a few days ago…" Niera blinked.
"Dear, I-"
"Listen to this-"
However, he was soon bombarded with so many complaints.
'What the… these girls are trying to protect Evelynn too hard… Was I ever abusive or something…?'
Davis asked himself but then guessed that they were too protective because of Evelynn's pregnancy. Perhaps he scarred them somewhat when he made them go through that interrogation back then, showing how ruthless he could be with his words.
Either way, he shook his head.
He extended his hand out, pushed them aside gently, and walked past them.
He saw Evelynn seated on the center of a couch with his children surrounding her.
"Papa!"
Eterna and Celestia jumped, floating towards him.
Davis's eyes went wide as he saw his pearls having grown a bit taller. He reached out his hands, capturing them with an embrace, causing them to giggle.
"You fulfilled your promise!"
"You came back soon!"
The two of them kissed his cheek from both sides, causing him to chuckle.
"Good children. Of course, your father never lies, but- I want to talk to your first mother quickly. Will you two take Aurelia and give us some space?"
Celestia appeared troubled, "But… mother told me not to leave first mother."
"Celestia, we're not supposed to say that…"
Eterna quickly whispered, causing Celestia to close her mouth with her small palm.
Davis's lips almost faintly curved into a smile, but he lowered them and took Aurelia from Evelynn's hands, placing a kiss on the sleeping baby before giving it to Celestia, who opened her mouth, looking speechless as she subconsciously took the child.
She appeared to be careful, not wanting to drop Aurelia.
The room was silent, and Davis turned to look at Evelynn, who had a calm expression although she didn't dare to meet his gaze. His gaze was not on her face but on her bulging abdomen, which made his heart shaken.
He knew she spent a lot of time in time chambers to hasten giving birth, and he imagined she was almost due in one or two months. However-
Davis turned around as he sat beside her, wrapping one of his arms around her neck and using the other hand to touch her swollen stomach.
"How many…?"
"One year left, but in the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace's time chamber, that would be one month…" Evelynn's voice was soft.
"I didn't ask that."
Davis's voice was gentle as well, causing Evelynn's gaze to shudder. Her lips couldn't help but curl with warmth.
"Twins…"
Davis's gaze shook. He wrapped her in an encompassing embrace, a warm smile appearing on his face as he kissed her forehead, holding her dear.
"Don't say anything else, and I'll depend on you again to treat Clara because I believe that you succeeded."
"…"
Evelynn eyes became moist quickly, and tears started flowing out. She bit her lips, lightly nodding her head.
"Mhm~"
She was extremely moved right now by the trust he held in her as she knew she had succeeded in the treatment, but it somehow failed, greatly puzzling her. However, could she claim innocence when the result in the end was that it failed?
She was scared, scared beyond compare that she would see his disappointed expression even if he didn't scold or punish her due to being pregnant, resorting to relying on Isabella and Shirley's idea even though she didn't want to, but his reaction was just the opposite, not even giving her a word of warning but wanting her to do it again.
"…"
Isabella and the others couldn't help but reveal a heartened smile as well as heave a sigh of relief as they looked at each other. For a moment, they wondered if something would go wrong but imagined they should've known better.
*Snap~*
But suddenly, Shirley snapped her fingers, and the door to the room opened, letting in four women.
At the forefront was a crimson-robed woman, and by her side were Panqa, Lanqua, and Yilla.
"…"
Davis's eyes went wide as he saw Shea walk towards him with a baby in her embrace. She appeared in front of him, placing the child in his arms.
"Husband, please name your child~"
Shea Goldsun requested with a voice full of emotion, her eyes tearing up. She was extremely delighted to see him come back, just in time for him to see their child, as she had just given birth yesterday night.
Indeed, some of them were shocked as they didn't know this matter at all. Only Shea's group, Isabella and Shirley, knew of it, as Shea gave birth earlier than the assigned date.
Davis had a stupefied expression as the tiny baby was passed to him, causing him to hold it like it was the dearest life in the universe.
It didn't take him long to discover he was holding a daughter.
Raising his head, he saw Shea shed tears already. Besides, Niera was still pregnant with his child as she had an immortal baby, which required more time to give birth.
His mind shuddered as his eyes turned moist, looking at his family grow in numbers and love right before his eyes.
This… this was the golden age for his family he desired! And not that fucked up of that man that made his heart sink into the abyss!
