Chapter 904 The Impatient Thing Wanted Out

Four months later...

_______

"God, that feels good," Mimi moaned, closing her eyes in bliss. And no, it wasn't what you're thinking (you dirty minds) rather Victor was massaging her feet and it felt so good. Perhaps, not better than sex, but still nice.

She was in her last month and pregnancy has not been easy on her at all. Her leg was swollen up and did she forget to mention that she couldn't hold her pee at all - a situation that was rather embarrassing at times. And the most annoying of all was the food craves, Mimi has eaten so many things she had once sworn off in her life. God knows she couldn't wait for this to be over.

Her stomach was quite big even though it was just one child. Yes, they were sure of it after the scan, although they asked the doctor to keep the sex of the baby a secret. It was a guessing game between the both of them. Victor wanted a son because he had been the only boy among three females and planned to have three more kids with her. Hopefully, their sex would be balanced and none of the siblings would feel left out.

Mimi was not against having a large family, after all, she had felt lonely as an only child. But then, she wanted a female child first that would take after her and she could doll her up and the both of them have fun together as mother and daughter. Not a boy that would probably take after his father in causing trouble. The thought of it sent her pulse racing, she was not prepared for such a headache yet.

The both of them got married mere weeks after Elijah and Adele's marriage. Although Marcel was not in attendance because he was recuperating, it went successfully with Arianna by her side to support her. Anyway, she returned the favor two months later when Marcel and Arianna got married too.

Unlike her own wedding where almost all crime families were in attendance - Victor's ran a wide social circle - Arianna kept hers on a low key. It was attended by all members of the Luciano family and her mother's side as well aka the Draven family.

In one word, both sides have been grudgingly forced by marriage and fate to get along. Also, Daniel was no longer there to cause trouble and things have been relatively calm in the family. Well, who was she kidding? Things were not calm at all.

No one knew where Daniel went. It was as if he vanished from the surface of the earth. As if. Everyone knew Daniel simply didn't want to be found and no one bothered to look for him. Good riddance. But then, with Daniel gone from the family, the once frightened rats in the name of Marcel's uncles began to lift their heads and throw their weight around, trying to reap where they did not sow.



With Marcel in the hospital recovering, his second in command should have taken over his position, however, Adele was in no state to lead those fools either. Moreover, they argued that she was no longer a member of the Luciano family having married into the Draven family, and should be removed from the position of underboss.

As a final preposition, Arthur, Robert's son should be Marcel's temporary replacement while Gabriel, Benjamin's son would be his underboss. It was a sure plan until Marcel stepped in and declared Camine, Victor's mother his replacement and she needed no underboss. She could do it all.

Of course, such a decision was not accepted by all members of the family. But then, Camille was a force to be reckoned with and while Daniel might be gone, the same blood still flowed through her. She was capable of the same viciousness, or even more. No one bothered her after that.

And though Marcel was fine now, he wanted time away from the business to take care of his pregnant wife, Arianna. Although he still made major decisions in the family, Camille bore the brunt of the work. The last time they visited her, the woman had chased Victor away with her slippers for daring to stress his pregnant wife and precious daughter-in-law.

Just like Marcel, Victor was off duty as well and Carmine instructed him to take proper care of her. Of which it's no surprise Mimi's gained so much weight she's afraid she might be unable to lose them after pregnancy. And it was all his fault!

Victor was a wonderful cook, hence he made her anything she wanted to eat and bought whatever she thirsted after. He claimed to like her now that she was thicker, but Mimi would not believe that. Once the baby is delivered, she wanted her figure-eight shape back! Boohoo!

Mimi's phone rang breaking off her train of thought, however, a smile lit her face when she discovered that it was no one but Arianna. Yes! They had to continue their gossip from where they had stopped the other day!

"Hello, Arianna -!"

Mimi was cut off because she heard a piece of news that made her shout, "What?!"

Victor who relaxed against the couch while massaging her feet sat up now, curious to know what was happening.

"Sure, I'll be there at once." She ended the call and pulled her feet free from her husband's hands.

"What is it?"

"Adele is in labor."

"What?"

Mimi was on her feet now and he stood too having a clue what she was about to do.

"But she's just in her seventh -"

"She's carrying Quadruplets, babe, it's a high-risk pregnancy. All of us knew there was always a chance of premature birth. I need to go to the hospital."

"You're in no position to stress yourself either. Remember the doctor said you're due next week" He expressed his concern.

"Victor, I know my body and -" A sharp pain cut her off and Mimi gasped. Her waist suddenly felt a great pressure hooked to it and….

"Mimi…."

Mimi felt the dread in her husband's voice and followed his line of sight only to look down and found out that her pants was wet.

It seems her water just broke.

Shit, the baby was not coming next week.

The impatient little thing wanted out now!





The pain hit her and Mimi screamed.
