Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 457

hapter 457

Ten minutes later, Sherri came to Natalie’s ward. She was fast when she walked, and she did not seem

to be a pregnant woman at all.

She saw her best friend sitting calmly on the bed and then looked at Trevon, who was tidying up

Natalie’s clothes “Didn’t you say that you weren’t feeling unwell?

“Was there blood?”

Sherri’s belly was not big, and her waist was not round. Only her bulge was quite conspicuous. Sherri

guessed that Natalie had bled. If her water had broken. Trevon and Natalie would not be so calm, and

Natalie would definitely be lying by now.

Natalie looked at Sherri and answered with a smile. “I suppose you’re going to say that it’s oxytocin

Sherri rolled her eyes at her best friend. “It inust be oxytocin. Give me your Medicare code, and I’ll

issue the invoice.”

Just as she finished speaking, Sherri left the ward quickly.”

Natalie had intended to ask the nurse to go with Sherri, but she was already gone.

For a moment, Trevon and Natalie suspected that Sherri was not pregnant. Her pregnancy did not

affect her movements at all, and her feet were not swollen.

As expected, there were still differences between people. They could not be generalized. For example,

every woman had different reactions when they were pregnant.

After a while, Sherri returned with Natalie’s Medicare code and a long list of items that needed to be

checked. There was a blood test, an ultrasound, and fetal heart care.

After glancing at Sherri’s protruding belly. Trevon looked away. “I’ll go with her.”

Although Sherri seemed to be able to walk with ease with her big belly, if something really happened to

her when she was taking care of Natalie’s business, Trevon was sure that Hackett would kill him.

It was more convenient for Sherri to walk than Natalie, but it was still tiring to go back and forth upstairs

and downstairs. Sherri did not dare to do this. She still planned to help her best friend deliver the

babies.

Hence, she did not turn down on Trevon’s help. Besides, she supposed that Trevon should help her

while taking care of Natalie’s business, by which he would have a sense of participation. “Okay. I’ll go

to the office to chat with the guys first. I’ll get off work after you’re done with your checkup.”

“Sure, Dr. Landor. Thank you for working overtime.”

“You’re welcome. For my godchildren’s sake, I have to do my best no matter what.”

An hour later, all the examinations were done and the results were made since Trevon had asked for

extra help. He helped Natalie to the ward with a stack of results in his hand.

Natalie was afraid that Sherri would go into labor while going back and forth. She instructed Trevon,

“Send the results over and have Sherri read them, in case she comes again.”

“Okay. Sit still.”

As they were talking, Sherri came in again. It seemed that Natalie’s instruction was in vain. “You’ve

finished your checkup. Let me read the results. As the professional Dr. Landor, I’ll now do my job.” She

took the results from Trevon and read them carefully.

At the side, Trevon stared nervously at the results that he could not understand. Without blinking, he

placed a hand on Natalie’s shoulder.

After a while, Sherri said, “Did your belly hurt when you came to the hospital from the Wilson’s

residence?”

Natalie shook her head truthfully. She could not joke about this kind of question. “No. I merely bled a

little.”

Sherri nodded seriously. “From the ultrasound scan, your babies are quite big. It will be tough for you if

you take natural labor, and you will suffer less if you take a c–section. So, what’s your opinion?”

Before coming, Rachel had instructed that Natalie should have a c–section if her babies were too big.

The instructions echoed in her ears. “I’ll take the c–section.”

Both Sherri and Natalie had kept their first babies in a proper weight very well so that they would not

need a c–section. As they wished, they didn’t need that surgery. But that could not be guaranteed when

it came to Natalie’s current babies. She had a great appetite, and her family had also offered her all

kinds of food. They hoped that she would be nutritionally balanced, and her babies were obviously

overweight.

In the end, after they discussed it, the surgery was scheduled for tomorrow morning, when the air

would be fresh, and good things were likely to happen at that time.

Both Trevon and Natalie wanted the surgery to take place in the morning.

After Sherri left, Trevon squatted in front of Natalie. “Natalie, I’ll go to the operating room with you

tomorrow. Don’t be

afraid

Natalie wondered which one of them was being afraid.

Her eyes were firm as she rejected hins. “No. If I were to do natural labor tomorrow, I wouldn’t object to

you following me in. However, since it will be a C–section, you’d better not go in. It will be too bloody

and you’ll be traumatized.” Although he might also be traumatized if she were to do natural labor, at

least the scene wouldn’t be that bloody.

When Trevon heard what she said, his eyes dimmed. He held her hands tightly and squatted on the

floor, pursing his lips without saying a word.

Trevon wanted to go into the operating room with her. He did not want Natalie to be alone by then, but

she did not want him to go there with her. Usually, he could not bear for her to be injured at all. She

was afraid that if he saw her belly cut open with his own eyes, he would not get that bloody scene out

of his head.

There would be a huge psychological impact.

The two of them stood in each other’s shoes and thought for each other.

Natalie forced a smile and pulled Trevon up from the floor. She wrapped her arms around his waist and

said, “Trevon, the operating room is not a place for beautiful scenes. You’ve already done your best

during my pregnancy. I hope that everything between us is beautiful. The scene in the operating room

is not something I want you to see although I’ll be giving birth to our babies.

“You can stand outside the operating room and wait for me. Don’t leave. Is that okay?”

Trevon seemed to understand what Natalie meant and agreed readily. He rubbed her hair and said,

“Alright. I’ll listen to you. I’ll wait for you outside the operating room.”

Natalie didn’t see that his eyes were dark and meaningful.

Early the next morning, Natalie had already changed into hospital clothes and was lying on the bed.

She had not drunk a single drop of water since last night.

Trevon was heartbroken. He had run to the duty room several times last night.

Caleb and Rachel were already standing outside the operating room. Even Theo, Jasper, and Gage

had arrived. Everyone’s expressions were different. There was nervousness, worry, and anticipation.

Natalie was lying on the bed when she held Trevon’s hand. “Grandpa, why are you here?”

Theo hid his tears in his eyes. He smiled lovingly while he felt sorry for Natalie. “You’re marrying into

our family. How could I not come over?” He had to come over no matter what.

Natalie held back the overwhelming feelings in her heart and did not let her tears fall. “Don’t worry. I’ll

be out of the operating room soon.”

Mary put her hands together and silently prayed for Mrs. Wilson to be safe.

The operating room was cold with cold instruments, cold scalpels, and plates. The only thing that was

warm was the human heart. This was because the people present all had a warm and delicate heart.

Sherri came in wearing a sterile gown. Her bulging belly was especially obvious. “I’ll give you an

anesthetic. Don’t be nervous. You can sleep after I’m done.”

“I’m not nervous. I’m worried about you. The c–section will take quite a long time. Can you handle it?”

“Don’t worry. If I fall, someone will immediately take over my work. Nothing wrong will happen to you.”

Before the surgery, Natalie did not forget to instruct Sherri, “If you can’t take it anymore, tell me.”

Everyone in the room comforted Natalie and told her not to worry. They would keep an eye on Dr.

Landor.

Trevon was very meticulous. He was afraid that Sherri’s body would not be able to take it and an

accident would happen. Last night, he arranged for the director to wait outside the operating room.

When the anesthetic was injected, Natalie was awake. However, she suddenly felt very tired at a

certain point and gradually closed her eyes.

The next second after she closed her eyes, a tall figure wearing sterile clothes walked in. He stared at

the woman on the operating table. His eyes were wet and his hands were tightly clenched. He said to

Sherri and the other–doctors beside him. “Don’t tell her that I came in after the surgery.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

His legs were heavy as he walked heavily in the direction of Natalie’s head. He stood on one side as he

hoped for time to accelerate desperately.

Sherri nodded and prepared for surgery. “I won’t tell her.”

The moment Natalie’s belly was cut open, Trevon felt that the air around him froze. It was so cold that it

was freezing. The

nurses beside him looked a little nervous, but Sherri reminded them “Just focus on what you’re doing.”

After a long time, the babies were taken out of Natalie’s belly one by one. They cried loudly. The nurse

wore sterile gloves and carried them over to weigh them “This baby girl weighs 9.7 pounds.

And this baby girl weighs 8.8 pounds. No wonder your mom’s belly is so big. It’s been hard on her.

You’ve absorbed all her

nutrients.

The marse mittered to herself as she carried the babies to wash them.

Trevon did not leave Natalie. He continued to hold her hand and bear the burden with her. He only

glanced in the babies‘ direction.

The two babies were not wrinkled. Their skin was light from soaking in amniotic fluid. The unfamiliar

environment was very spacious, making the newborns feel insecure. They kept waving their tiny hands.

One of them was much calmer than the other one. She stuffed her little hand in her mouth and chewed

it. IIer small eyes opened to observe the world outside her mother’s belly.

After suturing, Sherri was indeed a little tired after standing for so long. She wiped the sweat off her

forehead and said, “Don’t worry, she’ll wake up soon. Mr. Wilson, aren’t you going to check on your

babies?”

Sherri was already moved by what Trevon did. He watched the entire surgery without blinking. It was

as if he wanted to remember this moment. Her eyes turned slightly wet. “Thank you for being so nice to

Natalie,”

“She’s my wife.”

Sherri did not respond. Instead, she walked over to look at her two goddaughters. “Little darlings,

you’re quite good at waving your tiny hands. Welcome. I’m your godmother, Sherri If you forget me, I’ll

spank your butts.”

The two babies were playing by themselves. One of them was chewing fingers while the other was

looking around with her small eyes. “Athana is about to… Wait a minute! My god, I think my belly

hurts…

“Lean’t take it anymore. I think my labor pains are starting.”

Hearing this, Trevon became nervous. Natalie would never allow anything to happen to Sherri. He

quickly took out his phone and called the director.

In just a minute, Sherri was helped to another room by the nurses and the director.

Immediately after, another doctor entered Natalie’s operating room. “Hello, Mr. Wilson. The director

asked me to take over Dr. Landor’s job.”

After a while, Rose came in wearing sterile clothes. “Is Natalie still not awake?”

“No.”

Rose saw that Trevon’s eyes were red. He looked like he had been crying. She did not know if she was

seeing things, but looking at the tense expression on his face, she did not intend to joke with him and

went straight to check on his babies.

She stretched out her hands to touch the two little girls‘ hands, but they were grabbed immediately.

Rose’s face was filled with excitement as she said in a low voice, “They’re shaking my hands. Look,

they’re holding them quite tightly. They’re so

cute.”

She looked around and wondered, “Isn’t Sherri supposed to help with the surgery? Why is she gone?

Has she left after the surgery? That shouldn’t be the case. She’s not supposed to leave before Natalie

wakes up, is she?” She asked, “Where’s Dr. Landor? Is she in the ladies‘ room?”

A nurse said, “No. Maybe she’s going into labor.”

Rose didn’t understand. “What?”

“Dr. Landor started having labor pains a minute before you came in. She’s probably about to give birth.

The director arranged for some doctors to help her deliver the baby.”

Rose was speechless as she wondered, ‘Do Natalie and Sherri do everything together?”
