Kevin spotted the photographer lifting his camera and quickly pulled his girlfriend to the side.
But Everett intercepted him, even tugging him closer, "Let's take this photo together."
"Mr. Lopez, this... this doesn't seem right?"
Jeffrey and Karen were their close friends, family almost; taking a photo with them made sense. But Kevin felt out of place, he was just an employee...
"There's nothing wrong with it, I think it's great."
"But..."
"Just stand here."
Kevin felt a lump in his throat, almost shedding tears, "Okay!"
The photographer positioned in front of them, gestured with his hand, "Everyone, look this way and smile!"
With a "click," the moment was captured.
The smiles on everyone's faces were genuine.
The journey to this wedding, to this photo, was not easy for anyone involved.
But it was the difficulty of the journey that made the moment all the more precious.
...
The day Dorothy went into the delivery room, a thunderstorm unexpectedly hit.
Just yesterday, the sky was clear, but today, thunder roared and lightning flashed!
In the hospital, the doctors and nurses moved with a gravity not suited for the occasion. It wasn't because the labor was dangerously complicated, but...
The father of the baby was Everett!
Outside the delivery room, he had been standing still for nearly an hour, not eating, not drinking, and barely speaking, his gaze fixed on the delivery room door.
Soon, a nurse came out.
Everett stepped forward, stopping her, "Why can't I be in there with her?"
Everett: [Honey, I promise not to disturb you if I come in!]
Dorothy: [No.]
He was about to barge in regardless when another message from Dorothy popped up.
Dorothy: [If you dare sneak in, I'll never speak to you again! Just wait outside!]
"..."
Behind him, Karen paced anxiously, much like a cat on a hot tin roof. Having recently given birth to her second child, she knew all too well the pains of childbirth!
"Why won't Dorothy let him in with her?" Everett suddenly asked Karen.
She paused, instinctively responding, "Who wants their husband to see them in agony, face contorted, straining? I didn't let Jeffrey in the room when I was giving birth either!"
"..."
"Apparently, some men who witnessed childbirth found it so gruesome, they were traumatized for life, unable to even think about being intimate with their wives again!"

The readers' comments on the novel: The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires
Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....

I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
