Jacob might have made some mistakes, but it was only natural to make mistakes. When one was young, one would act impulsively, following one's heart. But as one matured, one would be considerate of others.-At the Williams residence.Eric read Sylvia's pulse. "Don't worry, everything's fine. She's perfectly healthy." Amelia breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Sylvia's belly growing and eating everything in sight made her worried.After becoming pregnant, Sylvia's appetite increased even more. Before, she could eat three large portions per meal, but she could easily eat four now!Naturally, Sylvia couldn't eat that much at once. As such, she ate multiple meals a day. From morning till night, she had to eat five or six times. If she didn't eat, she would feel famished!Amelia was also worried that Sylvia would experience morning sickness in the first few months of pregnancy and not be able to eat, but Sylvia was the opposite. She found everything delicious."Am I eating too much
Eric invited Michael to dinner at the Williams residence because he regarded him as part of his team. "Mr. Johnson, I toast to you!" Michael said.Michael was undoubtedly an extraordinary figure. Perhaps it was because of his connection to Lucius that he thrived. However, even without this connection, Michael was still impressive. He had made outstanding contributions to the Innova Group's development, and his value to the company could not be measured in terms of money.More importantly, he was loyal to the Innova Group. Having spent many years abroad, he had seen a lot of people and things. With his knowledge and experience, very few people and companies impressed him more than Eric and Sylvia. Michael was aware of Eric's development history. In the span of just a few years, he had transformed from a man without any accomplishments before the age of 28 to his current state. Sylvia's business acumen and decisive methods also earned Michael's admiration. Initially, the Innova G
Eric organized the information and sent it to Ruth and Pierce. Both were equally astonished. Later, Pierce sought confirmation from his mentor and received the same answer. Such organizations or individuals existed worldwide, and many major events were related to them. For instance, their shadows were behind the world wars."Seriously? Are there really such people or organizations?" Sylvia asked. At their current level, she was aware of some super-large conglomerates controlling the global economy. Sylvia also knew that the Association formed by the top ten families in King City was gradually evolving toward a conglomerate direction. In a few years, it might become the largest conglomerate in the country.Different from foreign conglomerates, Sylvia was well aware of who composed the Joint Family Association. She thought it was already formidable, but unexpectedly, there were even more powerful ones.However, upon further thought, such entities seemed to have conditions for their
After all, they were not the same as they used to be. Sylvia was confident they could overcome all kinds of challenges as long as they were together.-Eric spent less time at the Innova Group as Sylvia's belly grew.Although there were many people in the Williams residence, Eric's company held a different significance.Amelia was both happy and worried. She was happy because they were finally going to have another grandchild, but she was worried about Sylvia. After all, giving birth was a dangerous endeavor.Tyson stayed with the Williams as well, even though he had retired. He would spar with Eric for a few rounds in his free time. Although he knew he could not beat Eric, he just wanted to see what level Eric had reached.Without any surprises, his decades of skill could not even break through Eric's defense, and his fists ended up hurting."Just how strong are you now?" he asked in astonishment.Tyson was also considered a top-notch master. At over 70 years old, he had been
Tyson nodded. "I'll trouble you when the time comes." It would be excellent if he could relinquish his skills without pain when on the brink of death. If Tyson were to prepare to relinquish his skills, he could not touch martial arts until his death. For someone who had practiced for over 60 years, not being able to practice was no different from being killed.While Eric and Tyson discussed these matters, Sylvia and Amelia were having their own discussion."How about a cesarean section?" Sylvia asked.Amelia said, "No! Babies born naturally are much healthier!""Cesarean section is good!" Sylvia countered. "It has a quick recovery. Although there will be a scar, Eric can remove it. It won't affect anything!"Amelia objected, "How can it be good? After the child is born, you also need to recover. By then, what about those folds and stretch marks on your stomach? How will you get rid of them if there's a scar on your stomach?"Both of them refused to back down. In the end, they d
Eric checked Sylvia's physical condition daily. Although he knew it would likely go smoothly, he just felt worried for her. Sylvia's belly was getting bigger, and it was finally time for delivery.The Innova Group's business thrived during this period, but there was no expansion into other ventures.Andy and Sylvia had different philosophies. Sylvia was more of a progressive developer, while Andy was conservative.As Sylvia approached childbirth, Pierce also dispatched several people to Salt City. Their task was to ensure Sylvia safely delivered the baby. Having previously confronted Lucius, Pierce was worried that the Crimson Order might get wind of this and retaliate against Sylvia.-In the days leading up to the delivery, the personnel from the Combat Department took residence in the hospital. While Eric was capable of delivering the baby himself, it would not be appropriate for him to handle the birth of his own wife.After entering the hospital, the Combat Department person
Amelia rolled her eyes at Henry. Henry said, "What's the use of being anxious? The OBG Department delivers so many babies daily. Nothing could go wrong. Besides, with so many people outside ready to respond, there shouldn't be any problems!"With so many people on guard, he knew nothing would go wrong. Meanwhile, Eric was inside the delivery room. Despite current regulations prohibiting husbands from being present, Eric's medical expertise granted him special privileges. After all, he could quickly respond to emergencies. After a while, the baby was safely delivered. The nurse carried the baby out of the delivery room and announced, "Congratulations, it's a girl."Everyone was overjoyed.Connor exclaimed, "Eric's medical skills are truly remarkable! It really is a girl!"Amelia asked the nurse, "Miss, how is my daughter?"The nurse smiled. "Rest assured. Your daughter is in good condition and will come out in a while."Despite her puzzlement, she couldn't help but admire Er
How great was motherly love? For the sake of her child, Sylvia made numerous sacrifices. She temporarily put aside her cherished career, and her once slender figure underwent a transformation. Even after giving birth, she gained more than 20 pounds but didn't mind.Some people even said that breastfeeding could lead to changes in the shape of the breasts, but Sylvia did not care either. After all, no formula could compare to the nutritional value of breast milk."Eric, do you mind my body shape?" Sylvia asked.Did she really not care about her body shape? In fact, she cared about it a lot. After all, no woman in this world did not care about their body shape, especially someone like Sylvia."Body shape?" Eric said. "Why should I mind? I didn't marry you for your body shape. Besides, I think you look beautiful now."Sylvia blushed.Eric was stating the truth. He liked Sylvia regardless of her body shape. After all, beauty was in the eyes of the beholder, and Sylvia's current app
