Kai Piers nuzzled his face into her neck, "I checked the surveillance videos from John's wedding on Bali Island, where you made an appearance in the hotel lobby after almost a year of absence. You were not visibly pregnant and were dressed rather simply."
"Yes."
"By then... you'd already had the baby, hadn't you?"
Aurora Dupont nodded, "Yes."
"It must have been tough carrying Mila alone. Thank god you didn't have twins... I don't think you would've been able to handle that."
