Pierre called for the doctor, who gave Selena a checkup. It turned out that the doctor could do nothing about it. "This is normal after childbirth. Her mammary glands are already secreting milk, but the ducts have yet to open up, which is why the milk has no place to go. Make sure that the baby suckles on her breast. With that, the ducts will open up. Take extra care so that she doesn't press on her breasts, or else it will cause blockage in the ducts."

After listening to what the doctor told him, he almost blew up. "You kept on telling me that everything is normal, and there's nothing you can do. Does this mean my wife can only suffer without us being able to do anything for her? Don't you have any other treatment available? What's the point of your existence then?"

In spite of Pierre's outburst, the doctor remained unfazed. "This is just part of the natural process of childbirth."

The doctor's words silenced him. Yeah. This is an inevitable process that nobody can do anything about. There's no other way to go about this.

After the doctor left, Pierre remained silent. Although the nurse helped Selena relieve some pressure, it only alleviated some of her pain. She still had to bear with the pain for the rest of the time.

The first three days were the most agonizing, so Pierre didn't bring the kids to visit her until after that. As soon as Joaquin, Jameson, and Juniper got into the ward, they rushed toward the cradle all smiles, eager to meet their younger sister for the first time.

"Her hand is so tiny." Juniper lifted her head to face Pierre. "Daddy, can I touch her?"
