By the tAlyssa made it back to the hospital room, she'd already pulled herself together.
George was like a distant dream to her.
She wasn’t sure how much of that teenage crush still lingered. It was just a young girl's secret infatuation, living
only in her fantasies.
And those fantasies ended when her mother remarried.
Coming from a well-to-do family, Alyssa couldn't afford any stains on her reputation.
After tying the knot with Landon, she thought about George less and less.
If it hadn't been for this chance encounter today, she would have almost forgotten him.
Just then, Landon pushed the door open.
Alyssa flashed a little smile. “Meeting over?”
“Yeah,” Landon replied flatly.

Landon looked down at their daughter. “No.”
Alyssa didn’t think too much about it. “Okay. What tare we checking out tomorrow?”
Landon looked up, his eyes deep and intense. “How about we leave now?”

During Alyssa’s recovery period, Kaia cto visit again.
She watched Dolores waving her tiny hands and feet and making those sweet cooing sounds.
The baby was just too cute for words, and Kaia’s longing to have a daughter reached an all-tpeak.
Lucien didn’t tag along this time.
He knew it wasn’t quite proper for a man to visit a new mom during her recovery.
Still, he couldn't resist asking his wife, “Honey, please take lots of pictures of the baby forto see.”

He was like a pro dad, changing diapers and feeding the baby without a hitch.
Alyssa didn’t have much breast milk, so they started the baby on formula early.
As a doctor, Landon didn’t have those old-fashioned ideas about breastfeeding or natural birth.
Landon’s mother, Miranda Collins, wasn’t the type to give their son’s wife a hard time.
She adored Alyssa.
She was the hot topic among the rich ladies in town since she was the first to beca grandma.
Miranda said, “Hey, Alyssa. Just relax. Let Landon and the nanny handle things. Don’t wear yourself out.
“A woman's gotta take good care of herself during this postpartum period. If you want, you can take as long a
break as you need.”

Alyssa was really thankful for Miranda’s understanding.

Those family s she’d seen on TV just didn’t exist in her life.
The whole Collins family doted on her, and Landon was no exception.
Alyssa often mused about how she had somehow stumbled upon the most reliable guy.
Kaia noticed all this and was genuinely happy for her.
“Alyssa, your husband seems to be a lot quieter lately,” Kaia remarked.
Alyssa had picked up on it, too. Landon was still taking great care of everything, but he was definitely more
subdued, especially around her.
Yet his care and concern were still there.
“Maybe he’s just worn out from taking care of Dolly,” Alyssa said.
Kaia looked at Landon, who was changing the baby’s diaper again, and nodded. “Could be.”
Suddenly, Kaia pictured Lucien changing a diaper with that cold and handsface of his and burst out laughing

Hearing the laughter, Landon and Alyssa both gave her a confused look.

Kaia waved her hand. “It’s nothing. Just thought of something funny.”
Kaia didn’t stay long, not wanting to disrupt their rest.
After she left, Alyssa studied Landon’s face. “You've been so quiet lately. Are you exhausted from taking care of
Dolly?”
She'd meant to suggest they could ask the nanny to help more, but her words cout sounding more like
criticism.
Landon pressed his lips together. “No. Just focus on getting better and stop worrying so much.”

That night, Kaia showed Lucien a short video of Dolores that Alyssa had sent.
“Lucien, do you think our baby’s gonna be a girl?”
Lucien gently placed his hand on her belly. It was still flat since she was less than two months pregnant.
To be honest, he still didn’t quite feel like he was about to
