“What?!” Zoe exclaimed in shock.
Beside them, John’s face fell despite being usually stoic.
Still, even before anyone could react, he scooped Cordy up in his arms and left.
Zoe did not hesitate to follow, but Jay reminded her, “We’re the hosts, Zoe.”
“Don’t care.” Zoe was completely unconcerned. “Ask my mom and your sister to handle the guests. I’m going with Cordy!”
Jay hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow since there was no reasoning with Zoe.
Sam and Quinn also realized that something was out of place.
As they pulled away reluctantly, Bob shouted from below, “If you’re done kissing, we’re going to the hospital! Cordy’s going into labor!”
Quinn hurried after them as soon as she hurt, but Sam caught her. “Slow down. We can catch up.”
In fact, most of the guests were leaving as well—it was as if the banquet for Zoe’s son was actually intended for everyone else.
The poor boy was certainly unlucky to have such unreliable parents!
–
As everyone rushed to the hospital, Cordy was immediately sent to the delivery room once she arrived.
It was urgent as her water broke.
John was certainly restless. He paced around outside the delivery room, unable to calm down despite his usual calmness and restraint.
Even Zoe had had enough. “Calm down, Johnny. We’re all nervous, and you’re getting everyone even more worried.”
John promptly shot a look at Zoe, and Jay had to step in. “Don’t worry, Cordy will be fine. It took Zoe a while before too, but it’s all good after she delivered.”
Despite his words, Jay was far less calm than John when Zoe went into labor and would have gone on to be the midwife if he could.
Everyone waited outside, able to hear Cordy’s cries of pain from within.
The nervousness was palpable, just as they could see John clenching his knuckles.
Suddenly, Sam reached out to take Quinn’s hand, catching her by surprise since she was worried about Cordy.
In Sam’s mind, Quinn would be going into labor herself soon and she might be hurting too, and it hurt to know that.
Eventually, the room was getting silent, while John was at his limit.
He told the nurse, “Ask the doctor how it’s going. And tell him a C-section is viable if necessary.”
“Don’t worry, sir. The doctors will suggest the option according to the situation—”
“I told you to ask!” John exclaimed a little loudly, his body shaking.
The nurse hurried into the delivery room without another word before returning soon.
“What did the doctor say?” John asked nervously.
The nurse mustered her courage for a moment and said, “Actually, I have a message from the missus. She asked you to not bother her while she’s in labor.”
While John was left speechless, Zoe could not help snickering—Cordy was certainly the only person in the world who could put a leash on John.
