Chapter 245 - The most painful yet fulfilling milestone

Now, aside from Hannah Li that is comfortably asleep in the bed, there were only Daniel, Arthur, Felix, Stefan, Diana and J left in the VIP Suite. Daniel is looking at his wife tenderly while stroking her hair before he kissed her on the forehead, like they were the only one in the room. Everyone was flabbergasted. It was their first time to see Daniel express such soft emotion.

"She's asleep, due to fatigue. It was painful after all." J said casually while watching Daniel caressing his wife's hand.

"Fortunately, you made it on time. Giving birth is probably the most challenging and painful thing that a girl could ever experience. Yet it is also the most fulfilling. During labor, one is in too much pain that they can't even think properly, they cannot make any decisions. It was so painful that for a moment you will forget about the reason why are you having this kind of pain, all you can think about is to just get over with it. She was lucky to have you during those painful yet beautiful milestone in her life. Having a husband beside you to share the pain, to comfort you, to encourage you and to tell you how wonderful you are doing." Diana who was looking fondly at the couple enlighten them how painful Hannah had experience, after all, she shared the same experience with her.

"When I gave birth to Timothy, I was depressed that I am alone." later on her voice were filled with envy and sadness.

J gave her a meaningful gaze. At first, she was moved by what Diana have said. She didn't have that kind of experience so she cannot say those words. And even if she has, she doubts if she can say such moving words. But her last words made her lips twitched.

"Is it that depressing that it was I who was beside you during that time?" J said indifferently.

Diana coughed when she realized what she has said. During her pregnancy until birth, J was always beside her scolding and nagging at her. She never told anyone about her pregnancy except her. She rented an apartment near Mt. Celandine during her pregnancy. J always visits her every other day after her duty. "Of course, since Miss J is beside me during those times, it was not too depressing."

After hearing Diana's words that she intentionally said for the four men to realize, Daniel felt grateful towards J. He looked at her with great admiration and gratefulness. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't be able to find out that his wife is about to deliver their daughter. He suddenly realized how lucky he is to be assigned in this mission. If he was in another mission, he probably wouldn't know that her wife has given birth after a couple of days or weeks.

As a rule of Twelve Army, every agent is not allowed to take their personal phones while on their mission. Usually it would take about a week to months before they could get a leave or for a mission to be completed. So, they will only hear news from their family during those times. As an agent of Twelve Army, their mission should always be their top priority.
