Justin turned to look at her.

Grace was already in tears.

Justin sighed and walked over. He gently wiped away the tears on her cheek.

Grace rubbed her eyes vigorously, as if to stop the tears from flowing, but less than a second later, tears started flowing down her cheeks uncontrollably. Day by day, time passed.

Austin could now look around with his big and curious eyes and was awake for more hours of the day.

Grace was not in the mood to think about anything.

Austin had probably slept for too long and was now making a fuss. When Grace got out of bed and picked her up vertically, she immediately stopped crying.

She opened her two big eyes and looked around curiously.

Grace pinched Austin's little face lovingly. "You're barely a month old. Uncle Justin said you cannot be upright in the first month. You need to lie down."

According to Justin, the spine of a one-month-old child was still soft, and they should not be held upright. Thus, Grace could only let Austin have fun for a while before putting her back to lie down. Austin immediately opened her mouth and started to make a fuss. Her eyes had no tears, but her face was still red from crying.

Grace said helplessly, "Alright, alright, alright. I'll hug you for a while more since Uncle Justin is not around."

As soon as Austin was picked up, she immediately stopped making a fuss. When Grace teased Austin, Austin would giggle at her in return.

Grace's heart almost melted at her interactions with Austin.

Grace's emotions gradually stabilized. Hearing about Brian's news again no longer drew such a big reaction from her.

In two days, Grace would have completed her first-month post-pregnancy. In the past month, she would always see Justin answering calls, calls that seemed to be urging him to go back to work.

Grace had tried to convince him to go back a few times, but Justin had always seemed unwilling to do so.

Grace thought long and hard about it and eventually decided that she would move out at the one-month mark post-pregnancy.

On this day, when Justin came back from grocery shopping, Grace was nowhere to be seen, leaving behind a mere text message on his phone.

Grace had gone to find Carson.

Justin had helped Carson resolve the issue of plagiarism surrounding his game. They then set up a studio together after.

Carson rented an apartment alone. When he saw Grace appear outside his door with a child in her arms, he was stunned for a long time.

"Why are you standing at the door? Am I not allowed to enter?" Grace teased.

Carson immediately stepped aside to let her in.

Grace sat down on the chair with the child in her arms. "The milk powder is in my bag. Could you help me take it out? Each marking corresponds to 7 ounces of warm water. Add the water before you add the milk powder." Carson was in a daze. He blinked a few times before coming back to his senses and went to prepare the milk for her.

After preparing the milk, he repeatedly tested the temperature of the milk by touching the milk bottle with his hand. When he felt that it was no longer hot, he handed the bottle to Grace.

Austin had already woken up. It was obvious that she was hungry, as she kept calling out with her mouth open.

Grace placed the tip of the milk bottle into her mouth. Austin took big gulps and opened her eyes wide in satisfaction. Carson stared at her without blinking.

After Austin finished drinking the milk, she smacked her lips as if to savor the aftertaste.

Carson could not help but touch her smooth cheek. "How cute! Grace, can I carry her?"

Grace handed the child to him. Carson was at a loss for what to do. He looked at the small baby but did not know how to take her from Grace.

Grace could not help but laugh. "Quick, carry her. My hands are getting tired."

Carson took the baby. With Austin lying in his arms, Carson was unsure of what to do. Since he was afraid that he would drop the baby, all he could do was stand there and look at Austin without moving. Grace chuckled. "This is your niece. Her name is Austin. She was born on Christmas Eve."
