When Love Breaks by Jack

“If it’s a girl, would you…”

“Ha.”

Gregory chuckled briefly, the corners of his mouth curling up in a familiar smile. But his eyes weren’t smiling. “I think you’re getting a bit too cocky with all the attention.” Hearing his laid-back tone, I knew he wasn’t mad.

I nuzzled his chin, sharing the details of my chat with my colleague with him.

Gregory struggled to keep his smile, “What do you mean? You want me to let my wife go meet, someone who’s got designs on her?”

“Pleeease?”

I pulled out all the stops, pouting at him, “You’ve got to protect me and the baby, right?”

Gregory snorted through his nose before putting me back in the car.

“Wait… wait a second.”

I hastily spoke up, “I want to tell Ramona first.”

She would be over the moon about the pregnancy.

Gregory picked me up again and strode upstairs.

His swift actions seemed to hint that I shouldn’t meet Mark.

But Mark had mentioned it was about Ramona’s health. I couldn’t just ignore it.

Right now, Ramona’s health was the most important thing.

Besides, Mark had always been nice to me. He wouldn’t do anything to hurt me.
