Taming A Billionaire

The third point of view:

Cecil could not move a muscle not to think of bearing down, in fear that she could risk the baby coming out quickly and damaging her delicate tissue. 

So they had to carry her over to the manager's office. Well, not exactly them - Emily, Reina, Camille, and Lisa - help had come in the form of Emerald's men sent to watch over her and some male workers available.

They placed her comfortably and carefully on the chaise lounge - which wasn't exactly a bed but could do - and Reina finally understood why the manager was hesitant in letting them use his office. The chaise lounge would be ruined after this - everyone knew how messy and uncomfortable childbirth gets.

Thankfully, it was a Calma Chaise Lounge that features a clean-lined silhouette with a sloping arm and a rolled back for an approachable look enough for Cecil to recline against it. 

The men were out of the room before Lisa could pull Cecil's pants down with the others by the side to assist. God knows she had no idea what she was doing, she was scared as well, but she had to do this.

However, the instant Lisa saw the baby's head trying to crawl out, her instincts came alive and she knew what to do next.

Moreover, since the ambulance was still on the way, Camille called back and came up with a marvelous idea. Right now, they were talking Lisa through the basic steps of delivery, so Camille held the phone, putting the call on speaker . 

Reina could have done it, she was the bravest among them but she couldn't, not with her protruding stomach. Bending was out of the question nor would they even stand still and watch her torture herself. 

Emily couldn't stand the blood, not that they disgusted her or something but they brought them the trauma of the child she lost. She wouldn't be able to concentrate. 

Camille had already assumed the position of a communicator between the EMTs and them hence no one was left to attend to childbirth other than Lisa so the poor actress ended up in that position while the others assisted. 

Lisa first of all, washed her hands as directed from the phone and then wiped Cecil's vaginal area. Next, she grabbed a towel and began the battle. 

Cecil breathed through pants as instructed, keeping her from holding her breath and adding to the internal pressure. However, the baby was as impatient as the flash, the head pops pushed out despite her effort. 

Per the instruction given, Lisa try to 

ease him out gently by pushing each time she feels the urge while gently pressing her hands against your perineum to keep the head from popping out too fast.

Everyone watched the scene with hitched breath and anticipation, hands clasped together in silent prayer. Even when Lisa guided the baby out gradually, none dared to make a sound. It wasn't over yet. 

Lisa didn't pull and when she found the umbilical cord around the baby's neck, she reported it and they gave instructions. 

She then hooked a finger under it and slowly loosen it enough to ease it over his head. Once the head was out, she gently pulled it slightly downward very carefully. Cecil pushed with the next urge and that move delivered the shoulders; the rest of the body came easily after that.

Even with that, nobody made a sound until the baby released its first cry. Like mad women, the rest of them - Reina, Emily, and Camille - screamed in excitement. They did it! 

They jumped and hugged each other, almost infecting Lisa with their happiness. However, Lisa kept her cool and simply brought the baby up onto Cecil's chest and wrapped him in a clean towel as skin-to-skin contact will keep him warm and calm. 

Cecil was in the middle of delivering the placenta when the EMT arrived and took over everything. By the time she was done, her eyes closed in exhaustion. But not without smiling down at her baby… her beautiful baby… and a he. But she didn't mind, whether a boy or a girl, all that mattered was that he was her baby….her child...Sleep finally crept up. 

Emerald barged into the room as if the devil was on his heels, his gaze searching for one, no, two persons. His gaze landed on Cecil with her eyes closed and his heart stopped dead. 

Oh no. 

The saliva in his mouth turned bitter and his leg became wobble, the giant almost stumbled to the ground had Sakuzi not caught. 

"N-no…" He croaked out

"No, what?" Reina and the others were confused. That was not the reaction they expected from the husband of their friend who just gave birth. 

But then, it clicked on their head. Did he think….? Everyone turned to Emily with an accusing look, what the hell had she told the huge man to turn up this way. 

Sakuzi was the one who slapped the stupid fool on the back of his head, "Come on, stop thinking nonsense! Your wife is merely resting!" 

"Huh?" Emerald asked, and then the air that felt suffocating at first returned as his eyes widened. She's alive?! 

Emerald covered the distance between him and Camille with heavy strides that Reina made a mental note of the ground shaking under those powerful stomps. 

A wave of relief washed over Emerald when he saw the rise and fall of her chest. He almost thought he lost her… for a moment there, his life had almost lost meaning. 

Then he heard a cry from behind and Emerald saw Lisa approaching him with a warm smile, a baby in her arms. She handed him to her saying, "It's a boy," 

How he was not able to crush such a little thing in his arms, Emerald wondered. He was so small and fragile and he felt this desire to protect him. He had his hair, that he could see and the other distinct features. He now had his own. His family. He was now a father and unlike his parents, he would not abandon his son. 

To everyone's horror, Emerald burst into tears. It was super awkward yet heart-melting.
