Mango felt as if she understood something, but the feeling disappeared in a flash. She happened to hear Genevieve say, "Nathaniel, you saw your children when they were newly born. They were covered in the placenta and amniotic fluid, so it's natural for them to look ugly. We cleaned them up and they'll naturally look much better after 12 hours. Why can't you be happy that your children are better looking? Do you want your children to be ugly? Besides, do you remember where you are right now? I'm the director of the military hospital and I handled the delivery myself. You said the children were changed, so do you think I did it? I have to find a pair of twins first, right? You can go and check the birth records. Mango was the only one that gave birth hild today."
Mango immediately understood after hearing Genevieve's words and she suddenly felt so embarrassed.
Did Nathaniel lose his mind when she gave birth?
Mango felt extremely ashamed.
She directly punched Nathaniel and whispered, "Are you stupid?"
Nathaniel finally reacted. Indeed, who could have replaced their child with Genevieve around?
He quickly lowered his head and looked at the two babies who were still sleeping. Their soft hair and tender hands were in their mouths. Suddenly, he felt warmth rush into his heart and he was incredibly touched.
"Of course, these two children look like Mango."
Nathaniel suddenly laughed foolishly.
Mango really wanted to say that she didn't know such a foolish man as Nathaniel. Genevieve immediately laughed when she heard this.
Mango said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry. This is the first time he's seen a child being born and he must have lost his mind. Please forgive him."
"It's okay, almost everyone who became a father for the first time would act like this."
"This isn't the first time I've become a father."
Nathaniel smiled in a silly manner, but he couldn't help retorting when he heard Genevieve's words.
"Shut up."
Mango glared at him.
Nathaniel scratched the back of his head foolishly. The more he looked at the two children, the more he liked them.
"Are they boys or girls?"
Before Genevieve could say anything, Nathaniel said directly, "Such beautiful and cute babies must be girls. Isn't that right?"
As he spoke, he reached out to touch the baby's hand.
Wow, it was so soft and tender.
Genevieve was stunned for a moment. She looked awkwardly at Mango and whispered, "Does he like daughters?"
"Yes. So are they daughters?"
Mango looked at Genevieve and asked.
Genevieve shook her head and looked at Nathaniel's happy face. Suddenly, she didn't know whether she should say it or not.
"They're sons?"
Mango could guess the answer from Genevieve's face.
Nathaniel paused slightly when he heard that and quickly bent down to remove the children's diapers. His face became a little grim after he saw that it was indeed a boy.
He looked at the other child. When he saw that they were the same, he could not help but say, "Why are both of them punks? Where are my daughters?"
Mango did not even look at him.
"Nathaniel, why don't you go home first?"
Perhaps it was because Nathaniel was being too rough, but the baby who was sleeping soundly suddenly cried because they were cold.
The other one also cried as well, and they seemed to be in a fight to see who could cry louder. This immediately made Nathaniel frown in annoyance.
The midwife quickly walked over.
"Sir, madam, do you want me to feed the baby some formulated milk?"
Genevieve glanced at Mango and said, "Did your chest swell? It's best if the baby drinks your breast milk. This will be good for both you and the baby."
"Alright."
Mango did not object. She subconsciously wanted to carry her child, but she suddenly saw Nathaniel snatching the baby over.
"No! They should drink formulated milk."
Mango was almost scared out of her wits.
"Nathaniel, they're newborns. Can't you be gentler? What if you hurt them?"
Nathaniel felt a little wronged when he saw Mango shouting at him.
"They are punks!"
"They're also my sons! I gave birth to them! Why can't you let me feed them?"
Mango was about to go mad.
Nathaniel said aggrievedly, "You are my wife and they're just two punks!"
Everyone present couldn't understand his vague words, but Mango understood.
He meant that he was the only one that could touch her chest, and he didn't want her to breastfeed her babies because they were both sons.
Mango was so angry.
She grabbed a pillow and threw it at Nathaniel.
"Nathaniel, you bastard! What's on your mind all day? What the hell are you saying!?"
Mango rarely acted like this in front of outsiders. She immediately frightened Genevieve and the midwife, and even the bodyguards were stunned.
His wife seemed to have a bad temper after giving birth. Was this a symptom of postpartum depression?
Nathaniel didn't dare to dodge as he was afraid of hurting Mango's wound. However, the two children were crying so loudly that it broke Mango's heart.
"Give me my son!"
She never thought that she would be so fierce after she gave birth or that her husband would get on her nerves so badly.
Her chest heaved up and down rapidly.
