Matthew arranged for a private ward for Erica when she was nine and a half months pregnant. He took two days off from work so he could file in all the necessary documents required for her admission so that she could spend the days before her delivery in the hospital.

No one enjoyed staying in a place like that and such was the case with Erica. She felt that it would be a better use of her time to stay at home and be with her sons.

Besides, they had an entire team of bodyguards and servants at home, ready to tend to her needs. In fact, it wouldn't be such a big deal for them to take her to the hospital even just hours before she needed to give birth.

One day as Sheffield happened to pass by Matthew's villa, he checked Erica's pulse and made sure that everything was in order.

Fortunately, the boys were also home at the time which gave Sheffield a chance to play and spend some time with them.

Sheffield was very much in touch with his inner child. His youthful exuberance allowed him to bond with the four kids in a different level.

All the while, Erica lounged casually on the chaise longue in the balcony, munching on a plate of mung bean cakes and watched them with a smile on her face.

"Your dad's always bullying me, but you know what? Now I'm going to get my revenge on you boys!" As soon as Sheffield took one step forward, the four kids dispersed and ran away in different directions so he wouldn't be able to catch them all at once.

After playing with the four children for a while, Sheffield glanced at his wristwatch and realized that it was time for him to pick Gwyn up from her dancing class.

Just as he was about to leave, Matthew came in. "Oh, hey man! I was just leaving," said Sheffield.

Matthew took off his coat and let it hang from his arm. "Has everything been settled with Mr. Li?"

Suddenly, Sheffield's face contorted and his lips started to twitch. Mr. Li was an important client of Matthew's. 'He wants me to settle things with Mr. Li, but the person who benefits most in the end will be him!' Sheffield remained silent, but it was clear that he was angry.

He ran to the balcony and confronted the pregnant woman. "Rika, I want to ask you a question."

"What is it?" Erica asked, wondering if something bad had happened.

"You know that Matthew and I are partners in the business world, right? It's the same with our companies. Hypothetically speaking, if we were to fall out one day, would you help your kind brother-in-law or your cold husband?" he asked.

"Are you being serious right now?" Erica asked in disbelief.

Sheffield nodded, "Yes, I am dead serious! I want an honest answer!"

Erica showed n

Adkins whispered to Carlos, "Grandpa, were we also this ugly when we were born?"

Carlos bent down and answered in a low voice, "Yes. Babies can look very strange after they are just born. They will be fine in two days. Your younger brother and sister will be as beautiful as you soon."

With his eyes wide open, Boswell looked at the little girl who was sleeping with her eyes closed. "Grandpa, can I hug my sister?"

Colman was so anxious that he almost jumped. "Grandpa, I want to hug her too." He was so happy to have a sister.

Carlos patted his two grandsons on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Not now. She just fell asleep. You can hug her when she wakes up, okay?"

Carlos was hiding the fact that he was very angry. Ever since the doctor gave Erma to them, Matthew had been holding the baby girl in his arms. Now that he had just put the baby down, she fell asleep. Carlos didn't even get a chance to hold her yet. However, he couldn't lose his temper in front of his grandsons, so he kept his cool.

The two kids nodded their heads obediently. "Okay!"

Damian held the twins' hands with utmost care. "Grandpa, their hands are so tiny!"

"Yes, you were the same when you were born."

"Really?"

The four boys didn't leave the hospital soon. When the twins woke up, they hugged their brother and sister for a while before coming back home with their grandparents.

Carlos looked ten years younger as soon as he held his granddaughter in his arms. However, he didn't completely ignore his grandson. He also held him in his arms for a while. After all, they were both his grandchildren and he loved them very much.

After putting away the presents he bought for the twins, he left the hospital with Debbie and the four boys.
