Chapter 238: A Princess Is Born Part 2
The nurse asked Erik to leave the room so they could start preparing Aryana before they could transfer her to the delivery room when the time was right.
Erik glared at the nurse. "I would like to stay with my wife during her labor."
The nurse glanced at the resident doctor and she nodded. The nurse handed Erik a set of clothing sealed in plastic and instructed him to put them on. Erik accepted the package and went to the changing area to change.
He put on the lab gown and the cap. He noted that there was a pair of shoe covers made from thin cloth and he put it on.
By the time he went out of the changing room and went to the triage area, Aryana had also changed into the hospital lab gown and her OB had arrived.
When the doctor locked gazes with Erik, she registered a surprised look. He was the bodyguard who accompanied Mu Lan during her checkups. She did not expect that the Mu patriarch would allow him to be the stand-in husband for Mu Lan even during her delivery.
"Her amniotic fluid has already ruptured. She is now 5cm and if she becomes fully dilated in the next hour, then she can have a normal delivery."
Their conversation was disrupted when Aryana screamed in pain. Erik was at the bedside. He let her hold his hand which Aryana grasped tightly.
Beads of perspiration appeared on her forehead. Erik took out his handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat away, then he caressed her forehead with the back of his hand.
