Semua Bab Black Card: Bab 81 - Bab 90

"Ethan! Park! Pull yourselves together right now!" Lucas's voice thundered across the stage as he hurried toward the three frozen figures near the podium. "Belle is about to give birth! We need to get her to the hospital immediately!" The entire auditorium erupted into chaos. Confused murmurs spread through the crowd as students, parents, and faculty members rose from their seats, craning their necks toward the stage to see what was happening. Upon hearing Cassey's shocked announcement, Phil and Shine immediately rushed toward the stage. Phil had been anxious ever since Belle walked up to deliver her speech. He had suspected her labor was progressing faster than expected. Unfortunately, he had been right. "Ethan, get a hold of yourself and bring your wife to the hospital!" Meryl shouted sternly when she realized both Ethan and Park were still standing there in shock. Meanwhile, Belle was clutching Park's arm tightly, her face pale as another contraction ripped through her body.

"Ethan, can you stop terrorizing everyone for one minute and let the doctor speak?" Cassey snapped irritably, rolling her eyes. Everyone was nervous, but Ethan's behavior was beginning to wear on her patience. Ethan slowly turned his head toward her. The sharpness in his gaze and the grim expression on his face were enough to make Cassey immediately regret her words. She instinctively took a step back and subtly moved behind their mother. Cassey could be a tsundere and a complete menace when she wanted to be, but she also knew exactly when she had crossed a dangerous line. Provoking Ethan—or any of her brothers, for that matter—was rarely a wise decision. "How is my daughter, Dr. Pat?" Lucas asked calmly, redirecting everyone's attention to the visibly nervous physician. Dr. Patricia straightened her posture and took a deep breath. Being surrounded by the DelValle family was never an ordinary experience. The men and women before her possessed an overwhelming presence that could

Neo instantly became the crowd favorite when Belle and Ethan brought him out for his first public appearance. The occasion was the ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new pediatric clinic owned by one of Belle's friends and former seniors from medical school. Three months earlier, Belle and her classmates had taken the Physician Licensure Examination. Just last week, the results were released, and over ninety percent of their batch had successfully passed. The following week, Belle would officially begin her residency at EDV alongside Phil, Shine, and several of their former classmates. As news spread that the DelValle heir would be appearing in public, people began gathering around the venue. The information spread like wildfire, drawing curious onlookers from all directions. Everyone wanted a glimpse of the adorable little heir who had already captured public attention from the moment he was born. Belle DelValle going into labor during her graduation ceremony and subsequently giving b

“Sir, good day. May I ask if Dr. Belle is already here?” the boy asked politely as he approached the guard, who looked at him with a hint of suspicion. “You’re the same boy from yesterday, aren’t you?” the guard asked, narrowing his eyes as recognition set in. “Yes, sir. I was with my father yesterday,” the boy replied with a timid smile. He rose on his toes slightly, trying to peek past the entrance. “May I know if Dr. Belle is here today?” The guard sighed. “Dr. Belle won’t be coming in today either. If you want, you can leave your number and I’ll call you once she arrives.” “Ah… phone number?” The boy scratched his head awkwardly. “I don’t have a phone, sir. But I can wait here. Maybe she’ll come by today. I don’t really have anywhere else to go anyway.” The guard’s expression softened. “She might not show up today, kid,” another guard added gently, glancing at him with sympathy. “It’s alright, sir. I can just come back tomorrow,” the boy said quickly, still smiling as

Belle had just entered the hotel where the entire family was gathering to celebrate Carmeine's first birthday—the beloved daughter of Cassey and David—when she nearly collided with someone she knew all too well. "Belle..." the woman began before quickly correcting herself. "Oh, sorry. Dr. Belle DelValle." Belle immediately recognized the familiar face. "Miss Smith." A polite smile curved her lips as she turned to face Sylvia Smith, the former supermodel who still looked flawless despite retiring from the fashion industry years ago. "You look wonderful, Dr. Belle," Sylvia said smoothly. "And quite famous these days." Her smile was elegant. Her eyes were not. Belle recognized that look instantly. "Thank you," Belle replied graciously. "You look amazing yourself, Miss Smith. Retirement seems to be treating you very well." Sylvia laughed softly. "I suppose wealth and fame suit you. Who would've thought?" She shrugged casually. "Considering where you started." The implicat
