Since Mrs. Cedillo had just given birth, she needed to rest and recuperate. So, the next day, any visitors were kept at bay by the Cedillo family's staff. Moreover, Andre made it clear to everyone that no one was to disturb his wife's recovery. After Andre's announcement, no one dared to visit anymore.

Meanwhile, the area around Mia's hospital room was heavily guarded by the Cedillo family's bodyguards. Just to be extra cautious, whenever the little one went for a bath, someone was always close by.

Even Mr. and Mrs. Calder wanted to visit, but due to Andre's strict instructions, they settled for a phone call to express their well-wishes.

The little one started breastfeeding the previous night. Initially, Mia was a bit too shy to let her son breastfeed. She banished her husband and mother from the room and secretly figured out how to nurse her child. "You know, it's just feeding him, no need to be shy even around us," her mother had said, chuckling.

Standing outside the tightly shut door, Andre said with a mix of helplessness and affection, "Mia is young and new to this. Let's give her the time and space she needs."

After feeding, Mia opened the door, her cheeks flushed.

The little one lay on the bed, full and content, waiting for his dad to hold him.

Having had a taste of the good stuff the night before, today he refused to drink formula. He cried out of hunger, and when his dad held him and tried to feed him from a bottle, he stiffened and cried while looking at Mia. "...Why are you looking at me?" Mia said, pausing from counting money.

A loud cry snapped Mia back to reality.

Eventually, Mia accepted her new role as a mother, put down the money, and held her son to breastfeed him.

Luckily, apart from the first day when there were many visitors, the rest of her hospital stay was pretty relaxed. Sometimes, she even took her newborn son to visit other patients in the hospital, letting Coleen see him. The little one now not only smelled sweet but also looked fair and chubby.

"Mia, when are you getting discharged?" Coleen asked gently.

"The doctor said I could leave tomorrow, but my husband wants us to stay a few more days. So, we'll go with his plan," Mia replied, adjusting the soft wrap around her son.
