Chapter 25 Baby Stuff

In the hospital, Ophelia finished the prenatal examination with the help of her familiar doctor. The
doctor smiled and said, “Congratulations, it seems that both you and your baby are doing well.”

“It's always good to have you taking care of me and my child, Doctor Elodie. I really appreciate what
you have done for me and my baby.” Ophelia put on her clothes and said to the doctor.

Doctor Elodie Armstrong was a middle aged woman with tender character and good temper. She
smiled warmly and answered, “You are welcome, Mrs. Chambers. I'm your doctor, and it's my duty to
ensure the health of you and your baby. What's more, I haven’t even had time to express my gratitude
to you for your generous help to me and my husband.”

Ophelia got off from the examination bed and said, “I offered my help last time only because Mr. Kyle
Stone is my friend. You are just like a life saver to my baby!”

Seeing that Ophelia insisted on doing things in her way, Doctor Elodie respected her choice. She
accompanied Ophelia to the gate of the hospital and said in a serious tone, “Remember, if you feel
anything usual, call me immediately.”

Nodding, Ophelia said with a smile, “Well, I will do it even if you don't tell me that.”

After saying goodbye to Doctor Elodie, Ophelia walked towards Madeleine waiting outside. Once
Ophelia got into the car, Madeleine looked at her and asked with concern, “Hey, is everything alright,
Ophelia? Is your little boy doing fine?”

Ophelia smiled and stroked her tummy again, “Why are you so sure that it is a boy? What if it turns out
to be a pretty little girl?”

Steering the driving wheel, Madeleine laughed, “Well, a sweet, adorable and pretty little girl will be
great as well. I could even imagine that I dress her like a little princess, accompany her to kindergarten



and pick her up before sunset, making her favorite dishes at home and telling her bedtime stories. And
the most important part is to hear from her 'good night, mama Madeleine' with a sweet and childish
voice. Hell, I just can't wait to see your baby now!”

Ophelia burst into laughter and said, “It sounds like you will be a good mama, my dear. Then why don't
you just find yourself a husband and have a baby of your own?”

Madeleine shrugged her shoulders and said in a careless tone, “For me, I’m not going to get married or
give birth to a baby, and I'm serious. It is already frustrating enough for me to find a god damn man and
marry him, not to mention to get pregnant and bear extreme pain of childbirth. Therefore, being your
kid's godmother works fine for me, since I can enjoy the happiness of taking care of a child without
bearing any of the frustrations I just mentioned.”

As time passed, they were laughing and talking with each other. After a while, Madeleine took Ophelia
to one of the biggest supermarkets in the city and parked the car in the underground parking lot.

“Why do you bring me here, Madeleine?” asked Ophelia.

“Come on, you know why we are here! You are pregnant for three months, and your kid is growing
everyday inside your belly. It will be necessary for us to prepare some clothes, diapers, toys and other
kinds of baby products in advance. Don't tell me that you're going to put these things aside until your
kid is born and crying in your arms.” Madeleine said seriously.

“You're right, but it's just too early for that! My kid is only three months old, and there would still be six
or seven months before the birth. We can just do it later, maybe two months before the expected date
of delivery.”

However, Madeleine pointed at Ophelia’s slightly protruding stomach and asked, “You're not going to
do that when you tummy becomes as big as a ball, aren't you?”



Ophelia dumbed, looked down and thought that Madeleine was right. Hanging out there with a
protruding stomach would definitely be a challenge for her in any way.

“Let's waste no time and take the elevator to the baby stuff floor. Let me tell you, you'd better prepare
everything in double, since you don't know whether it is a boy or girl. You need to prepare for
everything that might come.” Madeleine said, as if she was the one who was going to deliver a baby.

Ophelia had no choice but to listen to her. In terms of baby care, Madeleine, a novelist standing in front,
was even more positive and excited than an expectant mother like her.

Madeleine was quite an expert on shopping. First, she took Ophelia's hand and led her to the third floor
and bought several clothes for herself and Ophelia; later, she took Ophelia to the fifth floor, exclusive
for baby products, and filled up five shopping carts with clothes, toys and other stuff.

Seeing the fully-loaded shopping carts in front of them, Ophelia said with a frown, “Hey, Madeleine, I
think it is way too much.”

Madeleine let out a dry laugh and answered, “Well, don't worry. The stuff here will make sure that all
our purchase would be delivered to your house safe and sound.”

Ophelia smiled helplessly, and took out an SVIP card from her handbag.

When she was about to pay the bill, Madeleine stopped her immediately.

Ophelia smiled helplessly, and took out an SVIP card from her handbag.
