Chapter 562: SS12: The Precious Pearls in Their Hearts
The little one arrived one spring morning. She was blessed by the prayers of the people eagerly awaiting her arrival.
Chaline Xu was the little bundle of joy’s name. Leslie and Calix carefully picked the name, intending to honor Charlene who became the link reconnecting them again.
"Poppy’s name is like Papa, Baby’s name is like Mama," Calliope commented once she, also everyone else, learned the little girl’s name.
Calix and Leslie laughed, knowing that Calliope referred to the lady’s legal name; Charlene.
"Indeed. Because both of you are Mama and Papa’s girls," Calix replied to which the weak Leslie nodded.
For the first few weeks, Calix and Leslie only focused on the newborn Chaline alongside Calliope. Thankfully, Old Madam Xu and the others accepted their decision not to accept visitors yet.
Still, Calix and Leslie kept in constant contact with them. They often sent photos and videos of the baby Chaline to the family group chat where the others gushed over her.
Calix, the devoted husband and father, took paternity leave. Fortunately, his father Andrian was willing to step into his role during his leave.
Calix dedicated himself to Leslie’s recovery and bonding with Chaline. At the same time, he didn’t want to make Calliope feel neglected.
Despite hiring a confinement lady and a nanny to provide professional care, Calix insisted on being present and hands-on during this precious time.
As for Calliope, the little dumpling eagerly embraced her role as a big sister. She was determined to help, also showering her baby sister with constant attention.
