“In ten years of working here, I’ve never met a man like that. Maybe it’s true—there are happy marriages. It’s just that we haven’t had the luck. If I met someone like that, I’d never let go!”

As if guided by fate, I found myself standing outside Room 203.

Through the small window, I saw Ethan’s anxious profile.

Emily Johnson had just entered to change Chloe’s medication when Ethan rushed to grab her.

“What’s that medicine? Are you sure it’s safe for a pregnant woman?”

“Chloe’s pregnant—you can’t give her the wrong thing!”

Emily could only smile helplessly.

“Sir, is this your first time being a father? I’ve seen worried husbands, but never one this panicked.”

“Relax. This is the maternity ward. I know what I’m doing.”

Chloe winked playfully.

“Ethan, did you hear what she said?”

“Sweetheart~~”

Ethan blushed like an inexperienced boy.

“I-I heard.”

“Don’t move around.”

It felt like someone dug out my dead heart just to shred it again.

I even forgot to breathe.

Just before entering the operating room, I made one last call to Ethan.

I wanted to ask him where he was.
