Chapter 766: THEIR WORLD COLLAPSED (7)
"She is not my baby," Iris remarked after she saw the baby in Cane’s arms. "Where is my baby? Cane, where is our babies? This one is not Rora." Iris was silent for a while before she looked around her. "Cane, we have two babies, but why there is only one? Where are our babies?"
Cane felt there was someone stabbed him with a dull knife. His feelings were threatened to come out in a big wave, but he suppressed it, because there was nothing he could do but not to let himself fell apart.
"They are sleeping in the nursery room," Cane said gently and tugged her sleeves. "Go back to the bed, okay? If you are sick again, you will not be able to breastfeed our babies."
Iris stared at him and then the baby in his arms and then at him again. She pursed her lips, but then looked around again.
"Iris," Cane called her softly. "Let’s go, you must be tired." He stood up, in one arm, he was holding the baby and he stretched his other hand to help Iris to stand up and walk her to the bed.
"I am not," Iris said, she shook her head and then stared at baby Adelle again for a long time, but she followed Cane to the bed and sat there. "No, I think this is my baby." Iris stretched out her hands, asking for her baby again. "I want my baby."
Cane kissed her temple, his breathing labored. "The baby is still crying, I think she is hungry, but you can’t breastfeed her, remember? Grace told you not to breastfeed our baby for a while."
Iris was silent again. She stared at the crying baby, Adelle was no longer screaming, but tears still kept flowing from her eyes. As if she didn’t care, she laid down on the bed with her back against Cane, falling asleep so fast due to exhaustion.
Once Iris was calm enough and Cane was sure she had fallen asleep, he went out to give the baby to Della, by that time, the baby in his arms was already sleeping as well.
Della immediately took her baby carefully and thanked Cane.
"Don’t let her to be alone." Cane talked to Aliana and Hanna, they nodded with that instruction. "Prepared yourself, we are leaving this evening. You too Amee."
