Married At First Sight Chapter 4225

"Wife, I'm so glad you're okay. We won't have any more children after this. Just this one is enough."

Josh held Jasmine's hand tightly, repeating his words as if trying to convince himself.

Childbirth was too painful.

And too risky.

People always say that when a woman gives birth, she has one foot in the grave. Josh had been with Jasmine through the entire process, and it had terrified him.

God knows how scared he was.

He had been terrified that something might happen to her.

But thankfully, it was over now.

Both mother and baby were safe.

Still, Josh didn't want to go through that fear again.

One child was enough.

He didn't need a second or third. The Bucham family was already thriving— expanding the lineage wasn't solely his responsibility.

"You're right. No more. Never again."

Although Jasmine recovered quickly from a normal delivery, and despite the overwhelming love she felt for her newborn, she still thought the pain of childbirth was unbearable.

Whether or not she ever had another child, she wouldn't even consider it for the next few years.

Her parents and in-laws probably wouldn't pressure her either.

Serenity nudged Zachary and quietly slipped away with him. They didn't want to disturb Josh and Jasmine's moment.

Meanwhile, in the sitting room, the Bucham and Sox families were busy discussing baby names.

Just then, the baby was carried back into the room by a nurse, with Julian's parents following closely behind.

Seeing her sister-in-law become a grandmother, Julian's mother sighed enviously. "I wonder when it will be my turn to become a grandmother."

Mrs. Bucham chuckled. "What's the rush? Julian is married now, but he and his wife are still enjoying their time together. Give them a couple of years. As long as they don't decide to be Child-free, it's only a matter of time before you have a grandchild." Julian's mother smiled. "Yes, you're right. It's just a matter of time."

Still, she couldn't help but feel a little envious.

It's human nature-once you achieve one thing, you start longing for more.

At first, all she had wished for was

Now that he was happily married, she found herself looking forward to holding a grandchild.

And if Julian and his wife had a son, she would undoubtedly start hoping for a granddaughter next.

As the baby was brought in, everyone immediately crowded around for a look. With so many people present, only the elders managed to squeeze to the front. The younger relatives respectfully stepped aside for them.

Serenity wanted to take a peek at the baby too, but Zachary held her back. "Seren, we can come see him tomorrow. It's too crowded today."

He glanced at her belly, a silent reminder for her to take care of herself.

Serenity smiled. "Alright. A new baby is a big deal, after all." Everyone in the room was beaming with joy.

Worried about his wife, Zachary said a few words to Josh's parents before leading Serenity away.

On the way home, she couldn't stop talking about the baby.

Even though she hadn't actually seen him.

"Honey, do you think Jasmine's baby looks more like her or Josh?"

Zachary replied, "Well, he has to look like one of them—or maybe a mix of both."

He hadn't seen the baby either, so how would he know?

"Newborns change so fast," he added. "Give it some time, and we'll see who he really takes after."

Serenity nodded. "Oh, I should call Elisa and share the good news."

Jasmine was probably too exhausted to inform her friends, and Serenity had been too preoccupied to think of calling earlier.
