Chapter 883 Naming
“But more than that, I’d like to thank the most important person in my life—my husband. He stayed by my side in my darkest hour, and I’m happy to announce that I am a mother now.”
The news shocked everyone once again, including Selena this time. Jude had always kept her private life a secret from the public eye, keeping even her best friend’s identity a secret, but now she was announcing one of the most important parts of her life on the stage.
“I know everyone must be wondering why my friendship with Selena wasn’t known. If you have been following her, you would have seen a ton of photos where someone was blurred out. That was me. I blurred the photos out myself. And she needed my approval to post those photos.
Also, I have been married for quite a while now. I’ve been dating him since before the filming, and my child was born three months ago. I’m revealing everything now because I don’t want to keep them behind the scenes anymore. They’re important to me.”
She started tearing up. “And Dad, if you can hear me, I did it. I did what I promised you. You can rest in peace now.” She raised her trophy, as if showing it to her late father, then she bowed.
Selena was already a mess of tears at that point, because she knew how hard it must have been for Jude up until that point. Charles, who was taking care of the baby, felt happy for Jude too. He blamed himself for her career’s stagnancy, so he was happier than anyone to see her getting what she wanted.
Jude’s name got on Google trending right after the award ceremony, most of them about her marriage, her friendship with Selena, and her baby.
They weren’t great news for an actress, since marriage and parenthood would affect their popularity, at least in this circle. But Jude didn’t mind, since all she wanted was to act. Fame and fortune never did cross her mind.
They went back to the Fowler Residence once the ceremony was over, and Charles was changing the baby’s diapers. Jude was amused but saddened at the same time when she saw how smoothly he changed their baby’s diapers. It must have been hard for a big guy like him to change diapers so smoothly. “Honey, I’m home. Did you watch the ceremony?”
“I did.” “I made our marriage public. Are you happy now?”
Charles shot a look at her, feeling annoyed by the question, and Jude quickly shut up. “I’ll only take one movie a year, alright? Then I’ll spend all my time with you two.” “Sure.”
When they had breakfast the next morning, Juniper asked, “Mom, what’s the baby’s name? I think we should give them a name.” Selena finally realized that their baby didn’t have a name yet, and the same went for the Raffles couple.
And thus, the first order of business for that day was to name the babies. They had to give them a nickname at the very least, but they couldn’t come up with any good names.
“I have an idea. I’ll name your kid, while you name mine,” Jude suggested, and her suggestion was accepted. They switched rooms and racked their brains for some great names. “She’s gorgeous. She needs a good name, don’t you think?”
