Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 483

“I’m the child’s grandmother. Don’t I have the right to name my grandsons?” Mary was the first to speak up.

“Well, I am the child’s grandaunt. I should have the same right!” Daisy refused to back down on this point.

“I believe the name should be chosen by me. After all, I am their uncle. The brother of the kids‘ mom should not be less important!” Peter proudly straightened his chest.

Soon, more voices joined in..

All of them were arguing non–stop.

Marina felt her head spinning from the noise.

Finally, she raised her hand and said, “Stop arguing, all of you!”

Her words immediately silenced the room.

“Marina, have we disturbed you? It’s all their fault for arguing with me. Don’t get angry. This is a crucial time for you to take care during the postpartum period. You must keep your spirits up!” Mary immediately softened her tone to console her daughter.

Ever since Marina gave birth. Mary seemed like a completely different person.

She was so cautious that she was acting like a servant to her daughter.

Many people found it hard to get used to, but Sam Bailey looked at his wife, full of joy.

Perhaps everyone had forgotten that when Marina was born, Mary had been acting like this as well.

She took care of her daughter with great caution every day, afraid of any accidents happening to the baby. But then, so many things happened that forced Mary to develop this fake armor on the surface. Now, she could finally let it go.

“Marina, you rest well. I’ll kick them all out now.” Mary seemed completely unaware of her transformation.

After saying that, she stood up and looked at the crowd behind her.

“All of you, leave! You all have no right to name the babies!”

“Mary, isn’t that a bit unfair? Why don’t we have the right? We’re all the babies‘ relatives.” Daisy still did not want to give up. “That’s right. I’m the children’s uncle!” Peter also joined the argument.

Seeing them about to argue again, Marina finally spoke up.

“The children’s names are already decided!”

“What? When did this happen? Why didn’t we know?”

“Yes, which name did you pick? Could it be my suggestion? After all, I spent a few days and nights looking through all the names and found the perfect ones for the babies!” Peter sounded confident.

“The boy is named Harry Bailey, and the girl is named Emily Hernandez,” said Marina firmly.

Her words stunned everyone present as she finished speaking.

Harry Bailey?

Emily Hernandez?

None of these names were suggested by any of them.

“Who came up with these names?” Everyone was puzzled.

“Me!” Marina looked at the crowd in front of her with a firm gaze.

With this answer, who would dare to give other opinions?

“Oh. I think these names are excellent. Well done, Marina!” Peter was the first to praise her. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Mary glanced at him indifferently.

Wasn’t he the one who had argued, claiming he had spent three days and nights looking through countless names to find the

best ones?

Marina turned her head and looked at the two little ones in the bassinets.

The names were now settled.

The others gathered around when they saw everything was settled.

“Harry, you have a name from today onwards.”

“Emily, do you like this name? Mommy personally named this for you.”

These big shots who usually wielded power and influence outside this room were now speaking in such a childish and soft manner while talking to the two little babies in the bassinets.

Marina could not help but shake her head helplessly.

And Simon, who had not said a word from beginning to end, looked worriedly at Marina.

“Do you want to lie down and rest for a while?” He had consulted with the doctor earlier and knew that the best way for postpartum mothers to recover was to rest more.

“I’m fine. I’m not that tired right now.” Marina shook her head.

“Although you’re not tired, it’s still better to lie down. You’ve used up a lot of energy for those two little ones. You must rest and recover properly,” said Simon as he gently helped Marina lie down on the bed.

Marina felt he was making a big deal out of it.

But Simon had always been firm about this matter, even though she had explained many times, he would not change.

Therefore, Marina could only listen to him.

“By the

way, I did not discuss the children’s names with you. Are you angry?” Marina asked.

“Why would I be angry? You carried these children in your womb for ten months and went through a difficult delivery. You are the most qualified person to give them names.” Simon said slowly, emphasizing each word.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Marina’s face.

“I actually wanted to discuss it with you, but I did not expect them to act so fast.

“If I had not named the children quickly, the loudness of their argument might have lifted the roof.” Marina made an explanation further.

“It’s fine. You can make decisions on these matters.” Simon did not feel that his rights were being violated.

Besides, he was not very good at naming.

“As for the children’s surname, don’t you have any thoughts on that?” Marina hesitated for a moment before asking again.

“What’s there to think about?” Simon was puzzled.

Seeing Simon’s reaction, Marina felt genuinely helpless.

“Do you really not care about the children at all?”

“Right now, I can only see you.” Simon admitted without hesitation.

“Do not let the children hear that. They might not be close to you when they grow up.” Marina chuckled.

“What does it matter? I won’t be spending my life with them. The one I’ll be holding hands with for a lifetime is you. As long as you are close to me, it’s enough.” Simon said with a calm expression.

Now, Marina really did not know what to say.

But regarding the matter of the children’s names, Marina still wanted to explain.

“I made the boy share my maiden name because I had a selfish thought.

“Although they are both my children. I feel that a boy should shoulder more responsibilities.

“The boy will probably take over the head position of the Bailey family in the future, and my selfish wish is for the girl to grow up freely and happily.

“Can you forgive me for my selfishness?”

The world only knew the glory to inherit the family’s prosperity, holding heavy power and influence.

But they did not know how much effort it had to take to reach that position.

If the girl stayed in the Bailey family, it was very likely that she would become the next heir to the family head position. Marina did not want her daughter to go through the hardships she experienced during her childhood again.
