Chapter 1040 You Don't Have to Tell Me Every Time

When Aimee was pushed out of the delivery room, her face was unusually weak. This delivery had really drained her of all her strength. A good body didn't necessarily mean a smooth delivery, something that Aimee had only just come to realize.

But she never expected that after such an easy first birth, the second would be so difficult.

Aimee looked at Patrick who was already leaning over her and said, "I'm safe and sound."

Patrick's tears fell directly down his face as he kissed Aimee's lips without caring about anyone else around them. He kissed her fiercely as if this could give him a real sense of security that Aimee was truly safe.

Patrick said, "We're not having any more children."

Aimee smiled and said, "But I still want another boy."

She always felt guilty towards Ridge because he had been so determined to have a brother, but everyone sided with Rosemary which forced Ridge to accept their wish for a sister instead.

Now that their wish for a sister had been fulfilled, Aimee didn't want to show favoritism and wanted to fulfill Ridge's wish too.

Patrick couldn't promise anything; he really didn't want Aimee to have any more children. Fortunately, the doctor suggested they go back home and rest first before discussing it again later on.

The baby girl's name had already been decided early on because everyone hoped for a sister. Her name was Nathalie Read with the surname from Aimee. Of course if it were going to be a brother, then his name would be Owen Read instead.

Now Nathalie was born into anticipation and everything seemed like it will develop in the most perfect direction possible.

Ridge stood by Nathalie's crib staring at her fixedly for quite some time before finally blurting out two words, "So ugly."

Rosemary immediately glared at him with sharp eyes saying, "You're ugly! You're ugly! She's adorable!"

Ridge looked at Rosemary speechlessly; he really didn't understand how she could say such blind things about someone who looked like an old man with wrinkles all over her face.

Aimee became sensitive when she heard what Ridge said; she immediately thought that maybe Ridge found Nathalie unattractive because she was just another girl in their family.

However before things could get worse, Eden spoke up saying, "You only think Mia looks good- looking among your siblings, right? What about your other brothers or sisters?"

Ridge nodded and said, "Mia's always the prettiest one."

Ben remained silent, wondering how to dissuade this little brat from pursuing his daughter.

It was a headache, truly a headache.

Eden spoke up, "Ridge, let me tell you something. When you were born, you wasn't as pretty as she is now."Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Ridge shifted his gaze from Nathalie's face to Eden's and replied, "Uncle Eden, there's no need for you to remind me every time."

Over the years whenever a new sibling was born, Ridge would always comment on their ugliness and Eden would always remind him that when he was born, he wasn't any better looking than they were.

Ridge never thought of himself as particularly handsome but just because he wasn't good-looking, it didn't mean others were ugly.

Eden loved teasing Ridge but as Ridge grew older, he suddenly realized that maybe he couldn't compete with him anymore.
