"Alright, I'll go with you. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease," Eric said, nuzzling her cheek, his eyes glowing with warmth. "As long as work doesn't overwhelm me, I'll always stay by your side, watching our little one grow day by day."
Ella's face was radiant with a soft maternal glow, her smile gentle and full of warmth. "With such a wonderful dad, this little one is bound to be so happy."
Eric pressed his lips together, his heart overflowing with warmth. He hadn't felt the sweetness of happiness since he was seven years old.
After meeting Ella, realizing her struggles mirrored his past, and being charmed by her cleverness, he understood—happiness had started with her.
"Thank you, my love," Eric said tenderly.
His heart brimmed with affection, and if it weren't for her pregnancy, he thought with a mischievous grin, he would have pampered her in ways words couldn't describe.
