Evil Duke, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 588 Why Don’t You Push Then?

"Aahhhhh!" The gut wrenching scream of Evan forced all the birds to leave the surroundings.

The maid looked helplessly at her master while the midwife they had brought frowned.

"There, there! You have to force yourself a bit. Push harder and it will be done." Though she explained as if it was an easy task, Evan felt she would rather die with the pain.

Her whole body was covered with sweat as she held the sheets tightly in her hands. Her face was distorted with pain and her eyes were shut tight.

Leo did not know what to do. He was getting so anxious when he looked at the pained face of Evan.

"Evan, try to push a bit more!" he said in a soft tone as Jenny wiped the sweat from her forehead when she opened her eyes and glared at him intensely,

"Push! Push! Am I not pushing! Why don't you come and push in my stead then. Do you think it is that easy!" her voice howled in the room making the man take a step back.

He was already afraid but now..

"...." Evan sighed. She knew that she was being unreasonable by shouting at him but she was.. She was trying! 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

The child is just not ready to leave her womb.

"That will not do! Girl. you have to push harder. There, hold your breath and then push again." chided the midwife as she held her stomach and tried to place some pressure on her stomach to support her.

"Aahhhhh!" she screamed again and the eyes of Leo trembled with fear.

"Evangeline!" she screamed again and then started taking shallow breaths when finally the head of a small baby could be seen.

"Finally! Evangeline push again, you are almost there." said the woman.

Leo wanted to encourage her too but when he remembered her fierce glance and snide comments, he closed his mouth again, but he had already held his breath.

He was waiting for the baby to come out.

"My lord, are you going to stay in?" asked the midwife with confusion. Mostly the man did not even enter during this time but Leo emphasized that he would stay with her to give her encouragement.

But all the time he was only scolded. Who would have thought that a cold man like him who bathes in blood on a daily basis was like a small bunny in front of his wife who would scold him with such ferocity.

"He.. he will stay here!" she held his hands. Holding would be the wrong word as her nails dug deeper into his skin with full force as if she wanted to pierce his soul and hold it instead.

But he just nodded and took the warm towel from Jenny's hand and started wiping her forehead.

"Since you are free, go and bring warm water. And also bring a clean towel and clothes for the baby!" said the midwife as Evan pushed again and finally the old woman held the small baby and pulled her feet out too.

"Uwwaahhhh uwwwuuuuhhhhh uwahhh" the tears and screams of the baby filled the room with joy and shock.

Leo froze at his place while Evan finally took a deep breath.

Gush of warm blood and other disposal liquid started to flow out of her body and she felt drained.

Her face was so pale but her eyes had warmth. Warmth full of love to see her child.

"My child!" her whisper brought the frozen man back to his senses when she shook his hands and he sighed.

"Not yours or mine, but ours child Evangeline!" he chided softly. His eyes did not let go of the face of the girl even for a second.

He was staring at her so hard as if he was afraid that she would vanish if he would take his eyes away from her.

"Umm, is it a boy or a girl?" it was Evan who asked while Leo still just staring at the kid with marvel.

The midwife slapped the ass of the little baby and then smiled at Evan as Jenny retuned with warm towels and fresh set of clothes.

The baby that was still covered with blood stated to be cleaned.

"Its a girl, my lady. A cute little one at that. Look how she is smiling now." Leo took a step ahead and stared hard.

He could not see the girl smiling. He could not even see the shape of her face with that wrinkled look.

"She is so tiny!" he said with a frown. The girl was smaller than his sword and looked like she weigh nothing.

"Even my sword is heavier and larger than her." he said with a frown as if he was not happy that his kid was that small brining an amused look on the face of the midwife. 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

"I have heled in giving birth to hundreds of lady, my lord and met variety of fathers who think their kids was extremely small. But none of them compared their baby with a sword!" she said wih a chuckle as she washed the girl and then wrapped a warm cloth around her body.

"This is the average structure of newly birthed kids. She is not small or large frame but she has good features. I am sure she was going to be a beauty that will win all te hearts." said the woman with a smile when Jenny went and helped the duke in coming there.

Even he wanted to see the kid.

"My.. gr.. And.. da.. Y..ter" he said with some difficulty when he saw the little baby from afar.

Evan had a happy smile on her face but soon her body started to give up and she let go of hands of Leo surprising him who turned to look at her and saw her eyes were closed.

"What.."

"There is nothing to worry, she is just tired so she is taking rest. Do you want to hold your daughter, my lord?"
