But what he saw delighted him. He was glad to see Dolores happy.
Since Matthew said yes, "I'll go ahead and name the baby then," he said.
"Please do," Dolores replied, smiling. She then looked up and met Matthew's gaze. He stroked her
forehead and said, "He will be a Lennon."
Oscar rose from his seat, facing Matthew. He thought the child will follow the surname Lennon.
"This is your child…"
"He is also Dolores' child," Matthew said.
Oscar looked at Matthew delightfully, 'Jolene was right, he is a dependable man. He's capable, with a
sense of responsibility and on top of that, he loves and appreciates people around him.'
"But, I'm not very good at it, don't blame me for the name later," Oscar said, smiling.
"We won't," Dolores continued, "As long as it's not too bad, otherwise the child might object."
"You should thank me for not naming him Batman or Superman."
Dolores was speechless.
He thought about the name once knowing Dolores gave birth to a boy, he wanted the baby to be a
Lennon, Dolores didn't change her name and he wanted the baby to carry on the family name.
He didn't plan to bring this up if Dolores hadn't mentioned it.
He paid someone for this name and deliberately say something nonsense.
He joked, "He is the third son, let's call him Lennon The Third."
Dolores was at loss for words.
"All right, all right, joke aside." Oscar turned serious, "Let's call him Joshua Lennon."
It had some relationship to Stanley Lennon and Jolene's names.
This was a name he paid someone to create by combining Stanley’s surname and the first letter of
Jolene.
Although it's meaningful, it didn’t sound sophisticated. Dolores would say the money was wasted if she
found out he paid someone for this name.
Oscar was slightly nervous since there was no reply from both Dolores and Matthew, "Don’t you like
it?" He asked cautiously.
This baby had a different kind of meaning than Amanda and Andrew the moment he accepted Oscar's
suggestion.
He was the heir of Stanley and Jolene, and this name was a perfect fit.
This was a name to remember them.
"Thank you, Oscar." Dolores smiled.
"As long as you like it," Oscar said as he waved. "I'll go visit the baby," he patted Dolores' hands, "Rest
well."
The baby was delivered preterm and stayed too long inside the womb during labor. Although the
bruises on his body faded, he must stay inside the NICU for at least a month, one could only view the
baby through the glass.
Those outside the patient room joint Oscar for the baby viewing trip.
The room was filled with silence.
Jessica had a bowl of nutrients soup with her. It was a blessed that both the mother and baby were
safe.
The only downside was Dolores could no longer bear a child in the future since this labor had severely
damaged her uterine.
"I don't want to drink that." Jessica made her drink this three times a day recently, she was sick of it.
"Put it aside first," Matthew said.
"I know it's sickening, but it's good for your body, hang in there," Jessica reminded as she put the soup
on the table.
"Okay," Dolores nodded.
"Do you still feel pain?" Jessica asked.
Dolores nodded. Her breasts were full but she couldn't breastfeed the baby since he was in the NICU.
"Pump it out if it hurts too much…"
"No," Dolores said. The doctor advised her not to breastfeed due to her weak body condition as well as
medication injected into her body during the surgery made her breast milk not suitable for the baby.
She could only endure the pain until her breasts stopped producing milk naturally.
Jessica sighed, "Get some rest, they will come back after seeing the baby."
Dolores nodded while Jessica went out.
Matthew sat on the side of the bed holding the soup, "Drink it before it gets cold."
The room was warm without air-cond, she would be all sweaty after drinking the soup.
Jessica forbade her from taking a shower these few days, she felt so uncomfortable, hence, was
reluctant to drink the soup.
"Later." Dolores didn't move an inch.
"Feeling uncomfortable?" Matthew asked as he put the soup down.
"What do you think?" Dolores stared at him.
"Hang in there," Matthew tried comforting her, "I'll get you some warm water to clean up your body and
new sets of changing clothes after you drink the soup."
Dolores was attracted, 'It's better than not cleaning the body at all.' She sat up slowly.
Matthew wanted to feed her, "I'll drink it myself." She took the soup and finished it in one gulp.
The hot soup warmed her body instantly, and she began sweating. She passed the empty bowl to
Matthew as she took a few tissues to wipe off the sweats.
Matthew put the bowl outside, came back to close the curtain then proceeded to the washroom to get
her washing water. He put the water on the chair, soaked up a small towel, and said, "Remove your
clothes."
