Karen, the rookie mom, was still all thumbs despite having had a trial run with Abigail and Langston. Luckily, having Dorothy around made her postpartum anxiety a bit more bearable.
When Everett and Jeffrey got back, Dorothy was cradling the baby, and Karen had just dozed off from sheer exhaustion.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"How cyou didn't get a nanny? You should be taking it easy." Everett said, his concern for his lady evident as he approached. Dorothy chuckled, "The little one likes me, and besides, Karen wouldn't feel at ease handing her off to a stranger." "I'll hold him!" Jeffrey, not wanting to disturb Karen's sleep, stepped forward and reached out to Dorothy.
She carefully handed the baby over to Jeffrey, trying not to laugh at his awkwardness.
Jeffrey indeed looked lost. Fighting and brawling were one thing, but holding such a tender newborn was a whole different ball game! "Everything sorted on your end?" Dorothy asked, more out of politeness than anything. But she caught a fleeting look of evasion in Jeffrey's eyes as he glanced at Everett.
The latter spoke softly, "Yeah, let's head back." As Dorothy stood up, she couldn't help but shoot a curious glance at Jeffrey, ultimately swallowing her questions.
"Alright then." The ride back was oddly silent. Dorothy didn't speak, and Everett didn't make the first move either.
It was only as they neared Eldorria City's central district that he finally broke the silence, "Dorothy, I regret not being there for Abigail and Langston when they were born." Seeing Jeffrey's cautious way with the baby today had struck a chord in him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hey, they're with you every day now. That's not such a big deal." Dorothy reassured him with a smile. "Honestly, I never expected them to warm up to you so quickly, especially Langston!" Langston thought a lot. With Dorothy being away so often, his view of a father figure was skewed, almost to the point of disdain.
Dorothy had been worried it miomet cause trouble or loss for Everett, but Everett had managed to win his son over in no time! Father and son were now as tight as could be, united in everything. "It's beyond my wildest dreams that you'd have two kids for me." When he first learned about the kids, the answer was right there before him. It wasn't that he couldn't guess, but rather... he dared not believe! That revelation was just too unexpected and too joyful! "Yeah... I never saw it coming either." At that time, Dorothy truly hadn't wanted the children. She thought of cutting ties with the Lopez family completely, so when the evidence finally surfaced, there would be no further entanglements. Everett, driving, suddenly reached out and took her hand, "Dorothy?" "Hmm?" She looked over at him.
"After you've recovered... could we maybe have another child?" Everett asked, then quickly added as if afraid, "I'm just saying. Please don't stress over it. If you don't want to, just tell me! I don't absolutely need it." He just wanted to make up for lost time. He wanted to be like Jeffrey, receiving directly from the doctor's hands his own child - his and Dorothy's child.
Seeing his eager explanation, Dorothy couldn't help but laugh, "You don't have to go on about it. I'm not so opposed to the idea of having kids. Seeing how you care for Abigail and Langston, I know you're a good dad You're nothing like Maxton Sanchez." Though she, like her mother, chose to keep the children, Everett's approach was completely different from Maxton's.
