Chapter 1584

Annie went into labor in the dead of night, just as everyone was fading with exhaustion. Out of nowhere, she clutched Mia's hand and blurted, "What's it like when your water breaks?"

Henry, who'd been fast asleep, jolted awake. He cried a little, but then woke up fully, all wide-eyed and curious.
