Chapter 687 Going Into Labor
The elevator soon brought them down to the lobby.
Toddy happily went off to buy his flowers while Frank went to get breakfast for Amelia.
Although he and Amelia were not on the verge of getting married, at the very least, it was good that she no longer avoided him.
She even took care of me when I got drunk last night and she came over so early just to see me.
The thought of this filled Frank's heart with fondness. He no longer wasted his time envying Toddy.
Everyone's journey of love differed.
Toddy and Emma had their share of troubled years to get to where they were now.
Meanwhile, his relationship with Amelia only just started.
Just as Toddy had said, there was no harm in waiting. He could take it one step at a time.
Soon, Toddy drove a car full of flowers back to the hotel. He set up the flowers in the shape of a large heart right at the hotel entrance and caught everyone's attention.
Those at Dynasty Hotel were aware of Toddy's position in Coleman Empire Holdings.
Naturally, they knew what the sea of flowers was for.
It was common knowledge that Emma had been in love with Toddy for years now. She had given up at some point, but now, things were working out for her, so they were genuinely happy for her.
Once Toddy was done with the flowers, he went upstairs and brought Emma down.
Frank and Amelia stood in the crowd to revel in the event.
"I love you, Emma. Will you marry me?"
They were standing in the middle of the sea of flowers, and under everyone's watchful eye, Toddy got down on his knee with flowers in one hand and the ring in his other as he proposed to Emma.
Emma turned scarlet. She couldn't keep the smile off her face as her heart filled with bliss.
She took the flowers and answered, "Yes."
Toddy eagerly put the ring on her finger as if he were afraid she would regret her answer if he took too long.
Then, he stood up and pulled her into his embrace. He couldn't resist kissing her rosy lips.
Applause rang out.
Everyone cheered along. It was a joy to witness someone else's proposal.
Amelia had taken a video of Toddy's proposal and sent it to Kendall.
At this moment, Kendall and Dylan were still snuggled up in bed together.
After randomly receiving a video from Amelia, Kendall remarked in confusion, "Amy sent me a video."
Dylan scooted over and checked the video with her.
They both looked up and smiled at each other once they realized what the video was about.
Dylan hugged Kendall and said softly, "Toddy's proposal was a success. After all these years, they're finally getting married. You don't have to worry anymore."
Everyone Kendall cared about would find happiness in life too.
"Although Amelia and Frank are still working things out, their relationship is moving along in a good direction. Everyone you care about will find their own happiness in life, honey. You don't need to worry about your two older brothers either. I'll set them up with blind dates until they find the love of their life and get married."
"Thank you, darling."
Kendall wrapped her arms around Dylan's waist. "I'm so blessed to have you!"
He placed his hand on her belly and said lovingly, "I'm so blessed to have you too! All you need to do now is focus on taking good care of yourself and the baby. Let's look forward to our baby coming to us."
"Yes," Kendall agreed with a smile.
As she was pregnant, they couldn't go on a honeymoon after the wedding.
Fortunately, Dylan pampered her in every way. Afraid that she would be bored at home, he brought her on road trips around Orapolis, so they managed to spend a joyous honeymoon together anyway.
Thanks to Dylan's companionship, Kendall didn't feel bored as she stayed home for the duration of her pregnancy.
The couple experienced their baby's first kick together. They were both thrilled and awed by it.
Once the fetal movement started, Dylan would talk to the baby every day. "Hi, baby. I'm Daddy. You must remember Daddy's voice, okay? When you come out and see Daddy for the first time, make sure
you like Daddy, okay?"
Many people commented on the change in Dylan post-marriage.
He was no longer the cold and domineering man he used to be. He became a lot warmer and smiled a great deal more.
They were even more amused by the fact that he doted on his wife to the extreme.
During the summer of their second year of marriage, Kendall went into labor.
She began feeling cramps in the middle of the night.
As she entered the final month of pregnancy, she began to have a hard time sleeping at night, and naturally, Dylan stayed up with her.
He instantly picked up on her discomfort as soon as her stomach started giving her pain.
While turning on the light, he asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable, honey?"
"My stomach hurts, darling. I-I think I'm going into labor." Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Kendall clutched her stomach as waves of pain coursed through her. Her face was all scrunched up from the agony.
Dylan jumped into action right away.
"I'll take you to the hospital right away!"
He leaped out of bed and grabbed the bag they had packed for the hospital, which was currently sitting on the couch in the room. They had prepared it in advance to avoid the awkward situation of panicking when Kendall's contractions started and forgetting to bring the things they needed.
Once he got the bag, he hurried over to the bed and attempted to carry Kendall, but she pushed his hands away and got out of bed herself in spite of the pain. "My stomach's too big. You won't be able to carry me."
She was a lot heavier now and no longer as slim as she once was.
"I'm strong enough to carry you."
Dylan scooped Kendall up in his arms anyway with the bag slung over his shoulder. As he scrambled out of the room, he yelled, "Amos! Amos! Get the car ready! Kendall's going into labor!"
Everyone in the house woke up thanks to Dylan's shouts.
Amos quickly got the car ready.
Tilly and the others swiftly came out of their rooms and swarmed over.
Dylan brought Kendall out of the house and set her down before stuffing the bag into the car. "Just hang in there, honey. Don't be afraid. We'll get to the hospital in no time."
He hurriedly got in the car and said to Ronnie, "Hurry up, Ronnie! Start driving."
Ronnie was nervous too.
Once Dylan gave the order, he immediately stepped on the accelerator and drove off.
Amos and Kendall were dumbstruck.
"Young Master Dylan! Young Master Dylan! Young Mistress Kendall hasn't gotten into the car yet!"
Amos was the first to snap out of his daze. He immediately ran after the car and yelled at the top of his lungs.
Dylan had placed the bag in the car, but Kendall hadn't gotten in yet.
Kendall was stunned at first before bursting out laughing which seemed to ease her pain.
She didn't think that the cliche often found in novels and shows would actually come true with Dylan.
He was always as cool as a cucumber and wouldn't even bat an eye if the sky came crashing down.
However, he was so flustered by her contractions that he didn't even realize she wasn't in the car.
Tilly and the others who rushed out belatedly couldn't help but laugh at the situation too.
Dylan failed to hear Amos' shouts and Ronnie was driving at the speed of lightning. In the end, Yoseph had to give his brother a call.
As soon as Dylan answered the phone, Yoseph asked, "Dylan, where's Kendall?"
"Kendall's going into labor. I'm taking her to the hospital now. The baby hasn't come yet so don't ask any questions. I… Where's Kendall?"
Dylan turned to check on his beloved wife, and the sight he took in gave him a huge fright. Kendall was nowhere to be seen!
Meanwhile, Yoseph's voice rang out again. "Dylan, are you sure the baby will come if you and Ronnie head to the hospital by yourselves? Kendall didn't even get the chance to get in the car!"
Dylan was at a loss for words.
