Chapter 234: Chapter 234: PREPARATION AND ARRIVAL OF FRIENDS
Time doesn’t wait for anyone, especially when it’s a busy season.
With the banquet hosted, Calista started concentrating on other things; preparing for the birth of her child.
From what she knew, she was supposed to give birth in January earliest, which wasn’t bad. There were still three weeks until the due date.
However, when taking into consideration Orson’s warning, she understood that the due date might come early, which would be scary if she wasn’t prepared enough.
So, once the banquet was done, Calista started pushing for all pending preparations to be finished in time.
There were clothes for the baby which had been taking too long to finish, and Calista started being strict about those.
She wasn’t good, no; she didn’t like sewing clothes at all, so she had the clothes workshop take that burden.
All the medicines to be used, clothes and other things were all prepared in advance. And to make life easier for her, another room was also prepared for the delivery.
She didn’t want to use her room as a delivery room. Who knows what crazy things might happen during that time?
A week passed just like that, and she was in week thirty-five. If she doesn’t give birth that week, then it would be next week.
However, she believed in Orson. There was no way that he could be wrong. So that meant any day from now on, she would be screaming her guts out to bring a life into the world.
At the thought of doing that, she was both happy and scared.
As anything could happen at any time, Calista couldn’t go anywhere. The mammy guarded her all the time, just in case her water broke and went into labor.
At the same time, the two babies of hers continued keeping a closer eye on her and didn’t bother to go hunting.
Anyone could tell that something was going on and it was a depressing moment, as people feared what might happen.
However, Calista wasn’t affected much by anything. She never stopped drinking medicine, so she believed that although it might hurt, nothing life-threatening would happen.
Three days into the week, she was taking a walk, in front of the manor when she heard the kids calling excitedly that there were visitors.
By now, every carriage that turns on the gravel road which leads to the village is visitors and all visitors like that tend to be Calista’s.
When she heard about visitors, she stopped in her tracks and turned around to look in that direction, wondering who might be coming this time.
To her surprise, there were eight carriages which came this time and looking at how fancy they were, her lips twitched as certain faces emerged in her head.
Madam Fischer had been accompanying Calista on her walks, so she was there when these carriages arrived.
"Dear, who are they?" she couldn’t help but ask curiously, wondering which rich friends Calista knew who came to visit her again.
When she heard that question, her lips curled upwards as a helpless chuckle escaped her lips. "some friends of mine. Though I am not certain why they would bring so many carriages at once. Could they be relocating?" she wondered, after sensing familiar auras from the carriages.
When Madam Fischer heard about relocating and thinking about the number of carriages she brought with her, her lips twitched as well.
Calista had no clue as to what her godmother was thinking about, as all she could think about was how crazy were these three people to come with such fanfare.
Nevertheless, as the friend, she could only wait patiently for them to alight and have their carriages taken to where the rest of the carriages were. With Madam Fischer’s and hers, by adding these eight, she could start an escorting team and earn a lot of money from it.
Calista didn’t wait for long as the people she had been waiting for finally alighted from the carriages.
Seeing the familiar faces, another question popped into her mind.
’How did they end up coming together when they all live in different cities?’ she wondered as her brows furrowed while glaring at the three excited women who got out of the carriages filled with too much energy.
"Dear! Your friend has arrived!"
"Hehe, did I surprise you?"
"Big sis! I am back!"
The three of them all had different colors and flavors and yet at this moment, they were born from the same mold. All she wanted to do was smack their heads.
Madam Fisher couldn’t help but chuckle knowingly, not finding the girls way of talking too familiar. When Calista was already that dramatic, how could the friends be calm?
That would be impossible.
Calista gritted her teeth as she pointed at the shameless three and started berating, "Don’t you know how to travel quietly? Are you trying to scare my baby and let her come out at the wrong time?" her other hand holding her belly as if afraid that something might happen.
The three rolled their eyes at Calista as they continued to walk towards her shamelessly responding, "Wouldn’t that the baby will be too happy to see us? How could she not come out when we came all the way here to see you?"
Calista harrumphed at the three, at a loss for words.
Madam Fischer, seeing that, stifled her laughter as she found these four quite hilarious.
Leeshay, Diana and Faith all laughed at seeing Calista defeated with a few words like that. It wasn’t every day that they got to win against her. Calista’s thick skin was a bit too much for them at times.
"There, there, there! Aren’t you going to welcome your friends? We came from afar!" Leeshay asked as she playfully looked at the puffed Calista.
Calista rolled her eyes at the three, flicked her hair to the side and marched angrily to the manor without saying a word.
Seeing her leaving them there, the three looked at each other before bursting into laughter.
"Do you think that we will be able to sleep in the manor today?"
"We might end up getting kicked out!"
The three laughed once again as they followed Calista.
As for the carriages, there was someone to help with that.
