In This Life, I Will Be The Lord-Chapter 297

Crash, clink!

The chair fell over in the wind, and the sound of dropping the tableware he was holding resounded through the dining room.

"Are you okay, Tia?"

My father approached me with a contemplated face and asked.

"Come on, bring Dr. Estira!"

My grandfather shouted to the startled employees.

"It's still okay, Dad. And tell Estira to come to the maternity room, not here."

Although it was earlier than the expected date, the maternity room was already prepared for giving birth in a safe and clean environment.

It was the best place to get a proper examination.

"Can you get up and walk, Tia?"

"We'll support you!"

The twins quickly walked over and held out their arm.

Normally, I would have refused and walk alone, but I'd better be careful because I don't know when the pain will come again.

"Thank you."

When I arrived at the maternity room, escorted by the reliable twins, Estira was waiting for me there.

"From here on, I'll help the Matriarch. Others, please wait outside."

Estira said to my family members who were about to follow in as if possessed.

Estira's words from now until the child is safely delivered are the law.

I waved my hand to my family and said.

"See you later, everyone."

In my case, it was a light greeting to lighten the mood.

Rather, the faces of my family became more weeping.

"If you ever need anything, just tell me."

"Dr. Estira, please take care of Tia and the baby."

My grandfather and Shananet said each word with a firm face.

"Don't worry too much, everyone. Because I'm not sure if it's labor pain or not."

That's what I said.

"It's labor. You must prepare, Matriarch."

"Isn't that a bit too fast...?"

"Anyway, the baby will be fine after all development is over."

"That's a relief..."

Still, it would be best to fill the moon and come out.

"Who is your hasty personality resemble to?"

A sigh that could not be helped mixed with self-talk.

Knock, knock.

"Matriarch, this is Caitlin."

"Yes, come in."

Caitlin, who entered the drawing room of the maternity room, asked me carefully.

"Should I send someone to His Majesty now?"

"Oh, right. That's right."

I was so distracted that I forgot about Perez for a moment.

After all, the labor pain come on the day before his paternity leave.

An upset face was drawn automatically.

"Yes, please, Caitlin."

I looked outside while looking at Caitlin's back leaving the maternity room at a quick pace.

"It's raining a lot."

The sky had been hazy since morning, and suddenly it was raining like a downpour.

"Perez, will he be okay?"

He'll come running as soon as he hears the news.

I murmured, soothing the child who was listening.

"Let's wait patiently until your father comes. Got it?"

***

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Your Majesty!"

Looking down at the royal coachman, who was holding his head down, Perez quietly frowned.

Today has been a strange day since the morning.

His dream was strangely disturbed, and he accidentally broke a bottle of perfume in the bathroom.

He didn't want to leave Tia's side because he felt uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to finish preparing for maternity leave.

In the end, he had to depart for the Imperial Palace with a heavy heart.

However, from the middle, it rained so hard that the coachman could not distinguish it, and eventually the wheel of the carriage fell out.

With the destination, the Central Palace was within walking distance.

"I'm sorry! It was my fault for neglecting the management!"

He found the coachman was usually hardworking and good at driving horses.

It was fortunate to arrive safely at the imperial palace through such pouring rain.

"I'll bring another carriage."

A knight escorting the carriage approached and bowed his head.

"Okay, let's go get the carriage."

Perez hurriedly got off the carriage and said.

"I want to walk alone, so don't follow me."

He was going to walk a little through the imperial palace to get rid of this strange feeling.

So he moved as he could for a while.

It was still raining, but he didn't care.

However, the walk that started to empty his mind took longer than he expected.

It was because he was walking through the vast forest of the Imperial Palace.

He didn't know how much time had passed.

Only long after that, Perez headed toward the Central Palace.

However, his heart that was not refreshed was as heavy as his robe soaked in drizzle.

"I must return to Lombardi quickly."

In the end, it was when Perez, who made that decision, stepped on the boulevard in front of the central palace.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Lignite Luman, who was standing on the other side, found him and started running.

"This is an emergency message from Lombardi! The Matriarch Lombardi...!"

There was no need for further explanation.

Perez started sprinting to the ground as it was.

Today, he should not have left the Lombardi mansion.

He should have stayed by her side.

"We have a carriage ready!"

Lignite shouted.

But Perez did not get into the carriage.

Instead, he grabbed the reins of the horse at the forefront and ordered it.

"Put the saddle on."

He couldn't afford to go to Lombardi comfortably in a carriage.

As he had been an assistant to Perez for a long time, Lignite moved quickly.

He skillfully separated the horse from the carriage and placed an emergency saddle over it.

After that, as soon as Lignite stepped back, Perez leapt onto the horse.

And he began to run as if the horseshoe had scooped out soft ground.

"Ah, of all things..."

Lignite, who was quick to prepare his own words, looked up at him and sighed.

As if when it had been looking for it, heavy rain was pouring again in the dark sky.

***

"It's going faster than I thought. Matriarch."

"Haha, that's why it hurts so much."

It was so funny that I wasn't laughing.

It was a vain laugh that came out when it hurt too much.

"Hold on a little bit."

Shananet said as she wiped the sweat from my forehead.

Originally, it was Shananet who waited outside the room with other family members.

However, as the labor pains got worse little by little, Estira recommended bringing in someone to be with me, and I called Shananet.

"I always respected my aunt very much."

"Is that so?"

"But from today, I want to respect you more. How did you give birth to twins when one of them hurts like this?"

"What else do I say?"

Shananet laughed softly.

"Seeing you joking like that, you seem to be able to bear it."

"Not yet. It's like I'm being fooled because I'm sick again and I'm fine again."

"Yeah, I'm glad it's that much labor because there's someone who hasn't come yet."

Shananet asked Caitlyn, who had spoken her thorny words so subtly.

"Caitlin, did you send someone to the Imperial Palace properly?"

"Yes. I think he's getting late because of the heavy rain."

I nodded at the words.

It was raining so heavily that the sound of rain hitting the window was loud.

I don't think I've ever seen this much rain even in the rainy season.

"It's okay, Aunt. It's not like the baby is coming out right now, well."

Shananet let out a small sigh after looking at me smiling like that.

"I wish your father outside was as big as your half."

"How's my father?"

"People might think that Gallahan is in labor, not you."

"Haha."

This time again, I smiled weakly.

To my father, my mother's childbirth was traumatic.

But now that I'm giving birth to a child, he must be worried.

Moreover, he is my father, who has always been weak-minded.

"It will be difficult for my father, too."

"It was hard. Shan did all the hard work that day, too."

Shananet wiped the sweat that was seeping out again and clicked her tongue.

Then she said.

"So you don't have to act to be okay, Tia."

"Ah...."

I was speechless for a moment.

But soon I shook my head.

"I'm fine."

I meant it.

I was really fine.

The pain was not so severe yet, so it was bearable.

Caitlin, Estira, and Shananet were also around.

So I really do.

"It's okay..."

Knock, knock.

A low knock rang through the maternity room.

"Tia."

A familiar voice called my name.

Caitlin quickly opened the door.

At the same time, the smell of a mixture of water and soil hit me.

Perez stood at the doorway, dripping water from his black hair.
