Chapter 609: Chapter 609 - 552: A Lifetime Promise

Sophie Ortiz and Natalie Wayne each held a child in their arms.

Everyone gathered around, but there were too many people, so some of them couldn’t see.

Gael Easton hurriedly rushed over, pushing his way to the front, looking at the two children: “This Miss…no, Charlotte, she’s amazing, she had twins.”

Everyone was surrounding the children, leaving Kevin Clark and Charles Amos left standing at the entrance, feeling out of place.

The excitement belonged to them, but had nothing to do with those two.

“Is it normal to be this ugly?” William Lane suddenly asked, “Are we sure they’re supposed to look like this? Is there something wrong with them?”

As soon as he spoke, everyone suddenly fell silent for a moment.

Then Sophie Ortiz glared at him and exclaimed: “Get lost!”

Not satisfied with just scolding him, Andrew Lane also kicked him: “When you were little, your facial features were deformed. Did I ever call you ugly?”

William Lane was kicked, licked his lips, and said: “You never told me. Charlotte and Olivia were beautiful as babies, born looking good.”

Olivia Lane looked at the children and said: “Maybe they take after my brother, they’ll be handsome when they grow up.”

The children had been crying in the delivery room but stopped crying when they came out.

Joseph Allen gently touched the hand of the child in Natalie Wayne’s arms with his fingertip.

The child’s round little fingers were like smooth, round pearls.

“Bro, isn’t it a bit magical?” Austin Allen said.

“Yeah.” Joseph Allen replied.

Although the children were indeed ugly, everyone crowded around them, treating them like precious treasures from the delivery room to the hospital room.

Two hours later, Charlotte Lane came out of the delivery room.

Kevin Clark immediately went to her side.

Seeing Charlotte for the first time, Kevin felt all his organs return to their proper places.

He relaxed with a sigh, his senses returned, followed by a dull ache all over his body.

Powerlessness, fear, heartache…

“Little girl.” After Kevin Clark leaned down and kissed Charlotte, he couldn’t speak.

It seemed like all his emotions were stuck in his throat, unable to make a sound.

Charlotte reached up and gently touched his reddened eye corners: “It’s alright. I’m finally free.”

The tears that had been held back in his eyes flowed down upon Charlotte’s touch.

Kevin held tightly to Charlotte’s hand, not letting go even when they entered the hospital room.

Although the room was large, there were too many people. In the end, they had to split into three groups to enter and visit Charlotte.

“Where’s Charles Amos?” Charlotte had seen him when she came out, but hadn’t seen him since they got to the room.

Everyone in the room looked towards the entrance one by one.

It wasn’t until the people outside knew they were looking for Charles Amos that they called him in from where he was sitting in the corridor with Edward North.

Charles Amos hurried into the room and slowed down as he approached the bed, step by step.

“What are you playing at with these slow-motion moves?” Charlotte said softly.

Charles Amos felt relieved when he heard her teasing him. He held her hand and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Does it hurt?”

“Yeah.” Charlotte answered, “It hurts a lot.”

Charles Amos pressed his lips together and touched her hand.

At the same time, Kevin Clark was sitting on the other side, holding her hand as well.

Charlotte pinched Charles Amos’ face, making his mouth pout: “Treat your wife well in the future.”

“Okay,” Charles Amos agreed, “and I’ll treat you well too.”

“I’ll be thankful if you just stop cutting classes.” Charlotte let go of him, then asked, “Did you see your younger siblings?”

“Yes.”

“Now you can have kids to bully, and you’re not the youngest anymore. Are you happy?” Charlotte squeezed his little hand.

“I’m happy.” Finally, Charles Amos smiled.

After chatting with Charles Amos, Charlotte looked at Kevin Clark: “Did you see your son and daughter?”

Kevin’s emotions had stabilized. but his eyes were still a little red. When asked, he pursed his lips and kept a straight face saying, “Yes, they’re very good-looking.”

Describing them as ‘good-looking’ seemed to take a great effort to get out.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the hospital room looked at him.

The expressions on their faces seemed to say: What kind of joke are you making? When did your sense of aesthetics break down?

Kevin Clark noticed everyone looking at him and glanced at them.

All of them immediately shifted their gaze, pretending they didn’t hear or see anything.

Kevin Clark looked at Charlotte Lane again and found her eyes… quite intriguing.

Kevin Clark began to reflect on himself.

Charlotte Lane hesitated for a moment and said, “Should I expose your lies? Or should I say you have bad taste?”

Kevin Clark held her hand and didn’t speak.

“I saw the child before they were taken out of the delivery room.” Charlotte Lane seemed reluctant to recall, “The doctor asked me to kiss them.”

Charles Amos’s mouth twitched.

“I said to keep them away, don’t let their ugliness hurt my eyes.” Charlotte Lane continued, “These two little guys really are so ugly that… they threaten our not yet fully established mother-child relationship. And you dare say they are beautiful.”

Kevin Clark paused and said, “In the future, they will definitely be beautiful.”

“Oh, in the future then.” Charlotte Lane said and chuckled, “Go take a look at them, and establish your father-child relationship.”

“A nurse will bring them in soon.” Kevin Clark didn’t want to leave.

“Alright then.”

The children were brought in, and with them came Gael Easton.

Gael Easton had been following these two children the whole time, admiring them up close when he could, and watching them from afar when he couldn’t.

“How come you’re here too?” Charlotte Lane was surprised to see him.

“I’m here to see my godson and goddaughter.” Gael Easton said.

“Did I agree to that?” Charlotte Lane asked.

“It’s not up to you to agree to it.” Gael Easton rarely spoke softly, “Just now we’ve already established a bond, so you can’t decide.”

Charlotte Lane didn’t bother arguing with him and looked back at the other people in the ward, “You guys really can’t resist a lively event.”

“Of course we have to be present for such a big event.” Logan messed with Charles Amos’s hair and said, “I must fight for the godmother’s position.”

“Step back, it’s none of your business.” Robinson Scott said.

“Let’s fight it out, winner takes it.” Logan suggested.

“You think I’m afraid of you?” Robinson Scott rolled up his sleeves and said, “Let’s meet in the restroom later.”

Charlotte Lane chuckled.

Luke said, “This is a matter that concerns the heir to my Hundred Demons Pavilion. I must fight for a position as well.”

“There should be an order to these things.” Adrian Roberts said, “We were obviously here first. We should inherit Dark Radiance.”

“If it’s about who came first… it seems I was the first one.” Joseph Allen said.

Felix Baker said, “My foot stepped in before yours.”

“Why don’t you guys grow up?” Charlotte Lane interrupted them, “They just came into the world.”

“Charles Amos doesn’t even care about us.” Luke said, “We can only pick on the smaller ones.”

“You guys are shameless.” Gael Easton said, “You have no heart for children.”

Lane Family and Clark Family entered the ward, and Luke and the others moved to the side.

Old Master Lane sat down by the bed, his spirits high, appearing years younger. He looked at Charlotte Lane and Kevin Clark, “Have you decided on the names yet?”

“Do you have any suggestions, Grandpa?” Charlotte Lane asked.

“Names, of course, should have some significance from the parents.” Old Master Lane looked at Kevin Clark, “Kevin, any ideas?”

Charlotte Lane also looked at Kevin Clark.

Kevin Clark stroked her fingers and said, “Hugo Clark, Noah Clark.”

Charlotte Lane’s eyelashes fluttered, as she hadn’t come up with any names that night.

Once she mentioned it, he came up with the names.

“What do they mean?” Old Master Lane asked.

“Bryce’s radiant brilliance.” Kevin Clark said, “Like Casey Cannon and Ethan Clark, it also has the meaning of beautiful jade.”

Casey Cannon, who was mentioned, looked at the two children who had just been born a few hours ago and were in the same generation as him: “……”

At the sound of his own name, Charles Amos nodded with satisfaction.

Old Master Lane also nodded, “What about Isabella Lane?”

“Adorable and charming, a valuable promise.” Kevin Clark gazed down at Charlotte Lane, his expression tender.

More importantly, Kevin Clark made a lifelong promise to Charlotte Lane.
