Chapter 836
Lionel remarked, “You know, the baby boy kinda looks like Elliot.”
Jacintha giggled, commenting, “I heard Sheena got kicked a lot by the babies in the last few months. It must be this little guy, just as mischievous as Mr. Jenkins was when he was young!”
Laughter filled the room.
Elliot sat by Sheena’s bedside, seemingly unaffected, focusing on feeding her nutritious
soup.
Observing the curious crowd from afar, Sheena felt like they were all watching some endangered
animals at the zoo.
The group continued their animated discussion.
Noah, who had been quiet until now, spoke up in his calm voice, “Nana, have you decided on their names?”
Sheena was taken aback, realizing she had forgotten about this.
She turned to Elliot, “Honey, it’s up to you.”
After some thought, Elliot declared, “I intend to name the girl Adora, meaning ‘adoration‘, as a tribute to my deep love for you, and the boy Asher, meaning ‘blessed‘, in gratitude for bringing these two precious lives into our world.”
Sheena listened quietly, feeling immensely content.
She had never felt more confident that giving birth to these two babies was the right decision.
Lionel chimed in, “Adora and Asher Jenkins. Sounds lovely, and the meanings are beautiful too.”
“Adora, Asher, these are the names your dad chose for you,” Jacintha exclaimed excitedly.
Soon, the room was filled with the lively chatter of people calling out, “Adora… Asher…” Sheena glanced at Elliot, chuckling, finding the group even more childish than children. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
The room fell silent as Ford entered, looking slightly awkward.
He whispered, “Miss, Mr. Corey and Mrs. Barbara are here. Should I let them in?”
His voice was barely audible, but his words brought an immediate hush to the room.
The atmosphere suddenly solemn, and all eyes turned to Sheena as if waiting for her decision.
Under the scrutiny of everyone’s gaze, Sheena’s expression gradually turned serious.
“The room is already crowded enough, and the babies are still too young. Having too many people around might scare them, so it’s better for them to leave for now.‘

Her words were polite, but the message remained clear: she was not ready to forgive Corey.
As the door closed again, the room fell into a deathly silence, with no one speaking for a long time.
After a while, a young nurse approached and knocked on the door, but it was not for Sheena and Elliot.
“Mr. Noah, there’s a woman looking for you.”
With these words, all eyes in the room turned to Noah.
Noah, usually aloof and proud, found his cars turning slightly red under so many gazes.
Howard was the most surprised, exclaiming, “A woman? An actual woman?! There’s finally a woman who dares to approach our aloof Noah?”
He patted Noah’s shoulder, adding, “Noah, this isn’t fair. When did this happen? You’ve been keeping this secret so well. How long are you going to keep my future sister–in–law hidden from me?”
Noah coughed awkwardly, his expression becoming more serious.
“Alright, stop it. It’s not what you think. It’s not my girlfriend, and there’s nothing like that. Probably just a former patient asking about some medical issues.‘
“Well, I’m not buying it,” Howard teased.
Noah ignored him and left the room.
Once Noah was gone, Sheena looked at Howard and whispered, “Noah is reserved when it comes to relationships. Don’t tease him too much, or he might get angry and drive with his indifferent attitude.”
The room quickly returned to its lively atmosphere.
Noah emerged and headed straight for the hospital’s deserted corridor.
A slender figure stood quietly in the hallway, waiting for him.

He stood there for a moment, rubbing his slightly ears which were red from Howard’s remarks.
Taking a deep breath, Noah quickly reverted to his usual icy demeanor.
“Ms. Moore, you just returned to Farlem. What brings you back to Svelton?”
The woman in the corridor turned around…
It was the ever so gentle and graceful Hannah.
