Chapter 1762
Seeing Baillie later on just made Jaime even more fed up with him.
Come evening, the Scott family threw another lively dinner party before sending Paige off to the best maternity hospital in Norhaven,
As soon as all the admissions procedures were sorted, the tricky issues started piling up.
I’m the baby’s uncle! I need to be here, I’m a night owl, I don’t need sleep, I can hang out in the corridor all night!”
Tm the baby’s grandma! I should be the one to stay. You guys are guests, you should go home!
“I missed when Rosalynn had her child, I can’t miss it this time with Paige, I’m staying”
“Hilaria, don’t get involved, we got a mattress made just for you at home. If you don’t sleep on it, isn’t that a waste of our good intentions?” Blake said, all cool.
After a whole lot of arguing, no one wanted to leave, so everyone booked rooms at the hotel across from the hospital. Everyone was shooed over, except Rosalynn.
After everyone had gone, Paige clung to Rosalynn’s arm and said, “I only feel safe when you’re by my side.”
“Baillie might cry if he heard that!” Rosalynn laughed helplessly.
“Baillie’s too uptight!” Paige grumbled, “I’d have to comfort him if he stayed up all night, plus…
Before Paige could finish her sentence, the door to the room was pushed open and Erica poked her head in.
Paige immediately smiled, “Come on, let me have a taste!”
Erica walked in, carrying barbecued meat and Paige’s favorite drink.
“I should’ve known! You didn’t insist on staying, that’s because you two had this planned all along, didn’t you?”
Erica quickly opened the food bag and handed Rosalynn a piece of rib.
“If Paige doesn’t enjoy this now, she won’t be able to have it after she starts breastfeeding. How could she miss the last chance?”
Rosalynn shook her head as she took a bite. The fat from the grilled rib perfectly combined with the seasoning, it was delicious.
“Hey, fancy some gossip? Erica asked cryptically as she ate.
“Spill!” Paige didn’t hesitate, “Whose gossip?”
“The Baldie family,” Erica sneered, “I must say, my social circles really amaze me. This afternoon in a group chat, I saw people discussing the Baldie family. Guess what big thing happened after they went back to Norhaven?*
“What happened?” Paige asked.
“Let’s start with Regina Terence. Previously, she had Jordon wrapped around her finger, and he wouldn’t even lift a finger against her. But everything changed after they returned from Norhaven, Jordon beats Regina every day now, as if it’s a routine, not missing a single day!”
“Regina seems smart, why doesn’t she run away if she’s being beaten?” Despite not liking Regina, Paige didn’t want her to suffer from domestic violence.
