"He can't bear to leave."
Elodie raised an eyebrow, saying, "There's someone in this world he's just not ready to let go of. Even if it meant faking his death and living in the shadows forever, he'd stick by her side. Am I wrong?"
"Go have a look, it's a girl."
Harold had already gotten the news from Gordon over the phone. Gordon had arranged for a top-notch team for the surgery, and he was the first to know when the baby was born. Plus, Gordon had a gift ready for the little one.
Outside the operating room, the newborn had been brought out already. She was wrapped up snugly, so tiny and delicate.
"Oh, she looks like a little mouse," Sandy blurted out without thinking when she saw the baby.
Griffin nodded with a serious expression, "I think so too."
The doctor chuckled, "Newborns always look like this at first; she'll change in a few days."
"I think she's adorable," Odie said, wanting to play with the tiny bundle but worried about messing her up.
"Hold on, where's Colby?"
Odie suddenly realized Colby, who had been standing outside the operating room moments ago, was missing.
"Don't bother looking; he dashed in as soon as the door opened!" Sandy had seen it all clearly.
It was the first time she'd seen her son-in-law rush to his wife's side without even glancing at their newborn daughter.
Sophie, still on the operating table, hadn't woken up yet, her face a bit pale. Colby gently wiped Sophie's forehead, only relaxing once he was sure she was okay.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
Excellent novel!...
When will you upload the next chapter...
