Chapter 675 You Must Wash and Sanitize Your Hands Before Holding the Baby
Arya was very worried about Adalia's future. Dulce took Arya back to Sunset Hills, sat for a while, and then left.
Arya went upstairs to the children's room to see Adalia. She saw Adalia sitting on the floor drawing a picture of a family of five, with a mom, dad, younger brother, younger sister, and herself.
Arya walked over and said with a smile, "Adalia, you're so talented. This drawing is really good."
Adalia put down the paintbrush and gestured: Grandma, I want to play with my younger siblings.
"Wait until your younger siblings are discharged from the hospital, then you can play with them. They're still small and need to be observed in the hospital for a while," Arya said. "Adalia, you're the most understanding."
Arya felt very guilty towards Adalia. If she hadn't lost Adalia back then, Adalia wouldn't have suffered so much.
Adalia nodded obediently.
At this moment, Celine arrived and nodded to Arya in greeting, "Arya, I'm here to give Adalia her lesson."
"Ms. Hughes is here," Arya said with a smile. "Then you go ahead and give Adalia her lesson."
Celine asked with concern, "Arya, how's Mrs. Flores doing? Has she given birth?"
"Yes, a boy and a girl."
Celine congratulated her with a smile, "Congratulations, Arya, you're a grandmother again."
"Yes, I am. I won't disturb you while you give Adalia her lesson. Thank you, Ms. Hughes." Arya was indeed tired. She wanted to take a nap and then go to the hospital to look after Maggie.
At the hospital.
Eleanor took off the crosses hanging around the two children's necks and threw them into the trash can. She couldn't accept the children wearing such things; they were too dirty.
Joseph quickly said, "These were gifts from Arya to the children. How could you throw them away?"
"They can easily harbor bacteria. What if the grandchildren get sick?" Eleanor said. "The children have weak immune systems right now, so we need to be meticulous. And those strings are so thin, hanging around their necks. What if they get strangled?"
Joseph thought this made sense. The strings holding the crosses were too thin. The babies' skin was delicate and could easily get hurt. If the strings caused suffocation, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The babies were now full and sleeping in their cribs. These were automatic cribs, costing twenty thousand dollars each. With the Flores family's wealth, they had to have the best.
Everything the babies used, ate, and wore was the best.
Eleanor was meticulous in caring for the two children. She even told the nannies that they must disinfect themselves before holding the babies. Even their nails had to be trimmed to avoid scratching the babies' skin.
Fiorello returned to the room from the intensive care unit and finally took a good look at the two children.
The boy was dressed in blue, and the girl in pink. Each outfit cost thousands of dollars, with some even over ten thousand dollars.
Children grow fast and won't wear these clothes for long, but Eleanor believed that a child's growth happens only once. Since the family had the means, everything had to be the best, with no compromises.
Fiorello looked at the two sleeping children and then thought of Maggie in the intensive care unit, feeling both joy and worry.
Eleanor smiled and said, "Fiorello, look at Nate. He looks so much like you when you were little. Katie looks more like Maggie."
The boy was named Theodric, with the nickname Nate, and the girl was named Katniss, with the nickname Katie.
Fiorello reached out to touch his daughter Katie's little hand, but Eleanor said, "Wash and disinfect your hands first, then you can touch her."
Fiorello paused, and Joseph said, "Your mom is very meticulous. Before touching the babies, you must disinfect yourself. She sprayed me with disinfectant from head to toe."
"You don't need to be so meticulous. Once the babies leave the womb, they need to develop their own immunity and adapt to the outside environment. There's no need to create a comfort zone," Fiorello disagreed with his mother's approach and directly reached out to touch his daughter's little hand.
