Divorce to Destiny: Reclaiming My CEO Husband novel Chapter 307

307 The First Dance 

(Winona) 

The soft hum of chatter and laughter fills the grand ballroom, but all I can focus on is Jayden’s hand resting on my waist as we stand in the middle of the dance floor. 

The lights are dim, casting a warm glow over everything, and the music begins to swell as the DJ starts our first dance. 

Jayden’s eyes lock onto mine, a soft smile tugging at his lips as he pulls me close. “You ready for this, Mrs. Brennan?” 

I can’t help but grin. I’ve never been more ready.” 

e have- 

We start to move together, slow and easy, like we’ve done this a million times before. In a way, we through all the ups and downs, through the chaos and the heartbreak. 

But this time, it’s different. This time, it’s perfect. 

The world around us fades, the guests disappearing from my mind as I rest my head against Jayden’s chést, feeling the steady rhythm of his heartbeat under my cheek. 

His arms tighten around me, pulling me closer, and I let out a contented sigh. 

“We did it,” he whispers into my ear, his breath warm against my skin. “We’re here. Finally.” 

I lift my head to look at him, my heart swelling with the truth of his words. “Yeah,” I say softly, my voice thick with emotion. “We really are.” 

The kids are officially ours. Bobby, Sarah, they’re our family now, by law. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this much peace in my entire life. It’s like everything has finally fallen into place. 

Abby, our miracle baby, who’s had more than her fair share of health scares. But she’s going strong right now. A baby of our own we never thought possible. I always honored that I got to have my own child against all the odds. 

I can’t have more but now we’ve extended our family in the most perfect way. And we have one more little man waiting to come home. 

Jayden smiles down at me, his eyes filled with so much love it almost makes me tear up. “This feels right, doesn’t it? Us, the kids. Like this was always meant to happen.” 

I nod, feeling the weight of his words settle deep in my chest. “It does. More than I ever thought possi…” 

He leans in, brushing his lips against mine in a soft, lingering kiss: When he pulls back, he tilts his head slightly, his brow furrowing just a bit. “You’ve got that look.” 

I laugh softly, shaking my head. “What look?” 

“The one that says you’re keeping something from me, he says, raising an eyebrow. 

I bite my lip, trying to hold back my smile, but I know I can’t keep it from him any longer, “Okay, I do have a 

surprise for you.” 

His eyes light up, his curiosity piqued. “What kind of surprise?”

I take a deep breath, feeling the excitement bubbling up inside me. “Henry is allowed to come home by the end of the week.” 

Jayden freezes for a second, his eyes widening in disbelief. “Wait… what?” 

I nod, the smile on my face growing wider. “I talked to the doctors earlier today. He’s doing great. All his tests came back perfect, and he’s feeding so well. He’ll be able to come home.” 

Jayden’s expression softens, and for a moment, he looks like he’s trying to process it all. “Henry’s coming home?” His voice is quiet, almost like he doesn’t believe it. 

I 

“Yes.” I laugh, wrapping my arms around his neck. “He’s coming home, Jayden.” 

A huge grin breaks across his face, and he pulls me into a tight hug, lifting me off the ground slightly as he spins us around. I laugh, holding onto him, feeling the sheer joy radiating off of him. 

“This is… this is amazing,” he says, his voice thick with emotion. “I can’t believe it. He’s really coming 

home.” 

I nod, still smiling as I pull back just enough to look at him. “He’s really coming home.” 

Jayden’s eyes are shining, and I can see how much this means to him. “Do we have everything we need? I mean, I know we’ve been preparing, but do we have everything ready?”
