Vicious Empress (Unedited)

Chapter 115 - Birth Of The Heir

"Mother please, you really don't have to do that. '' Nandini had a helpless expression as she looked at Chityakanta. She was currently sitting on the couch while Chityakanta was massaging her sore feet.

"What are you saying?" Chityakanta scolded "can't you see your feet is sore?"

Nandini smiled "mother, it happens. I can't help it" she is already using medication to relieve the pain of soreness every night. But because of the weight gain and changes in her body it happens frequently.

"Mother, it's making me uncomfortable. You are the empress dowager yet you are massaging my feet like this" Nandini shook her head.

"The title does not count in relationship dear" Chityakanta replied as she applied the fragrant oil on Nandini's feet "before I become empress dowager, I am a mother and for a mother there's no title not rank. All the children are same"

Nandini couldn't help but keep staring at her. Though she never had a mother to teach her things or make her understand about the rules of the house, her grandmother did teach her some things when she was alive. Nandini never involved herself much in household work. Most of the time she devoted her time and thoughts on researching and collecting herbs. But that doesn't mean she doesn't know anything about manners. But now seeing Chityakanta massaging her feet she couldn't help but feel emotional.

At the side Maya who was playing with her little prince laughed "get used to it sister in law. Mother is always like this. She has done the same thing when I was pregnant and near the due date"

"Speaking of that, Nandini's date has already passed..." Chityakanta couldn't help but frown. This has never happened before. Most of the women always gave birth when they entered the 10th month or at the fixed time the medic declared. But in Nandini's case it was quite different. Nandini's due date was called 3 days ago but she didn't have any labour pain yet.

Nandini looked down and rubbed her swollen belly. She couldn't see her feet because of it and had many difficulties but still she is loving this period because she knows after this even if she wants she couldn't live it again.

"Could it be that the little heir doesn't want to leave mother's womb?" Maya said, frowning.

"What nonsense are you talking?" Chityakanta turned and scolded."Is it something for an innocent child to decide?" She threw a glare..

"I was just guessing" Maya pouted before looking down at her son in her lap "see this, you came out fast and didn't want to stay long. And look at your aunt, her child want to stay for a little longer"

The infant didn't even understand as he quietly stared at his mother. Then he threw his arms and laughed. Maya rolled her eyes and sighed. She knows he won't understand a thing but somehow she couldn't help but feel jealous. She looked at Nandini then pouted.

Nandini noticed gaze and turned to look at her "what happened?"

"Nothing, I am feeling jealous," Maya replied.

"What?" Nandini frowned at her then she saw Maya gazing at her belly. She finally understood and laughed.

"Are you jealous of the little heir?" Nandini raised her eyebrows.

"Kind of," Maya nodded.

Chityakanta finished massaging and put the oil bowl away and shook her head. She couldn't believe her daughter to get jealous of a child.

"If Suhal knows about it he won't take you back to the country" Chityakanta said.

"Mother it's not like that" Maya defends herself.
