Lost Me Gained Regret

But I never expected that it wouldn't just happen naturally and that we'd need a professional's help. And that pain, it was beyond anything, even birthing a child.

"Is this person even a pro?" Gregory lingered at the door, itching to go in but held back by Lucius.

When my mom saw Lucius couldn't keep him at bay, she handed the baby over to him.

Sure enough, that calmed him down.

"Pain's normal, I know you're worried about Jane, but this is something that just has to be done," Lucius tried to reassure him. Gregory tried to pass the baby back to my mom, but she wouldn't take her, "Walk the baby around a bit."

Standing here, he was just scaring the professionals inside.

"Chris, come with me to grab some stuff."

Bella took Christine away, calling Lucius along too.

Dailey was busy with a meeting for Gregory today, couldn't make it.

So there stood Gregory at the door, staring down at his daughter, who was just blowing bubbles at him, not crying a tear.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

He was a complete softie for her.

"Your mom's been through a lot, be good for her, okay? If anything comes up, just come to dad."

...

When I finally relaxed, even in the air-conditioned room, I was drenched in sweat.

The professional wiped me down, saying, "You can start breastfeeding now. I'll go get Mr. Ford."

I nodded, "Thank you so much."

"It's my job," the professional went to call Gregory in.

Gregory habitually called for Lucius to settle the bill, then remembered he'd been taken away by Bella.

He handed the baby to me before going to pay.

When he came back, I was breastfeeding, turning away slightly at his entrance.

Gregory chuckled, "What are you hiding for? It's not like I haven't seen it all."

I shot him a glare, "Don't corrupt our daughter."

Gregory sat down, amused at how happily our daughter was feeding, poking her cheek with his finger.

She even locked eyes with him, enjoying herself even more.

"Show off."

Gregory looked at me, "I think she's bragging to me."

I was speechless, "Maybe you should just go to work."

Too much free time could lead to trouble.

Gregory stared at me, his gaze dropping then back up, heating up noticeably.

Holding the baby, I couldn't just cover his eyes, so I turned my back to him.

He wrapped his arms around me from behind, his chin on my shoulder.

His hot breath was in my ear as he spoke, "Jane...I,"

I quickly cut him off, "Behave yourself."

Gregory retorted, "Don't want to."

...

What could I say?

During the pregnancy, after the first trimester, it was supposedly safe.

But my condition wasn't great.

Given his physique, it was remarkable he abstained for nine months.

Not even asking for my help, just dealing with it himself.

And now, with a month of postpartum care ahead, his longing was understandable. But in front of the baby!

Gregory let go and stood up, "Fine, I'll be a good dad."

He settled on the couch, picking up a parenting guide to read.

I smiled, got him there.
