Actually, it's not that Jimmy didn't give the child a Chinese na. He still rembers the bracelet he was wearing when he transmigrated here, and he plans to leave that bracelet for Liam, including the na.
But in these years of living, he deeply understands this society, and for the child's easier future, the first na has to be in English. The Chinese na is only used in specific situations, depending on the path Liam eventually takes.
The days with a child always pass by quickly, and there's never enough ti each day. Of course, there's definitely not enough sleep, even with a maid at ho to handle many things. Jimmy and Nia always feel they can't be apart from the little guy. Even just watching him sleep, they can spend a good while in a daze.
Liam's baptism ti has already been set, to be held a month after his birth. Of course, it will be held at St. Andrew's Church on Staten Island, presided over by Priest Rodney, as decided by Priest White.
And before the baptism, Priest White ca personally, bringing two priests to do a thorough check of Liam's nursery. This ti, even Nia didn't believe Jimmy's nonsense anymore. Considering the frequency of the visits from Priest White and Priest Rodney, claiming it was for Jimmy's sake was obviously impossible without even thinking about it.
After putting Liam to sleep and placing him in the crib, Nia pulled Jimmy into their bedroom, closed the door, and stared at Jimmy, "You need to tell clearly, what's going on with Priest Rodney and the others?"
Seeing he really couldn't hide it anymore, Jimmy sighed and said, "Nia, calm down, take a deep breath, yes, relax. Okay, they're not here for but for Liam. Still, it was sothing I initiated. I have a rare constitution that can accept the Holy Light, which is why I was able to beco an unofficial exorcist for the church."
Nia blinked, "What's that got to do with Liam?"
Jimmy: "They think my constitution could be inherited by our child. I'm already an adult, so naturally, I can't join the church as a formal exorcist, but Liam, my child, likely has the talent to beco a top exorcist."
Nia stared at Jimmy, gritted her teeth, and after a mont, rushed at him, throwing a few punches, "FK U! My child will be a lawyer, a doctor, a politician, but definitely won't join the church to be a priest! Jimmy, that's your child, how can you just hand him over to those church people!"
After taking a few punches, Jimmy finally caught Nia's hand, "Calm down, it's just a possibility, not that they're going to take him away. Listen to ! Listen to !..."
Once Nia cald down a bit, Jimmy continued, "I won't allow the church to send him to religious school for training. He will live a normal life like any other child, without any difference. Trust ."
Jimmy pulled Nia to sit on the bed, "Nia, you already know the world isn't safe, but with the extra care from the church people, at least Liam will have a lot more security than others. It's not that I don't love him; I'm doing this to ensure he's safer and starts with a higher point than others."
Jimmy had considered how to deal with this situation long ago, but when the mont ca, he still couldn't make Nia calmly accept this arrangent with just a few words.
