After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me A Mother's Daughter, A Grandmother's Joy
MAXWELL'S POV:I watched my wonderful wife hold our new granddaughter, and I felt a profound shift happen deep inside my chest.I had been a father for more than two decades now. I had raised three incredible children, watched them stumble, taught them how to stand back up, and seen them grow into strong adults and one has found her true love and built her own lives on her own. I honestly thought I had already felt every possible emotion that came along with being a parent.I was completely wrong. This was entirely new territory. This was a brand new chapter of my life.My thoughts drifted back to my own father, August Valancourt. The man who had built our family empire from nothing at all. The man who had taught me every single thing I knew about business, honor, and loyalty. The man who had loved me unconditionally, even when I made foolish mistakes, even when I disappointed him, and even when I failed to be the exact son he hoped for.I remembered the exact day Isabelle was b
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Our First Granddaughter
MAXWELL'S POV:The phone call came right at six in the morning, cutting through the quiet stillness of the early hours.I was already wide awake, sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of black coffee, watching the golden sun slowly rise over the blooming gardens at Valancourt House. Upstairs, Athena was still fast asleep, curled up peacefully in our bed, her soft brown hair spread softly across the pillow. I had barely slept a wink all night. Truth be told, I never slept much when I was waiting for something this important.And I had been waiting for this exact news for many long months.My phone suddenly buzzed on the smooth kitchen counter, vibrating loudly against the stone. I picked it up right away and Isabelle's name flashed brightly on the screen."Dad," she said the moment I answered. Her voice sounded worn out and thoroughly exhausted. But underneath the fatigue, there was a bright spark of something else entirely. Something that made my heart skip a beat and stan

ISABELLE'S POV:The contractions came faster and harder. Each one was a wave of pain that crashed over me, leaving me breathless and shaking. Damon was beside me the entire time, holding my hand, wiping my forehead with a cool cloth, and whispering words of encouragement into my ear."You are doing amazing," he said, smoothing my hair back. "You are so strong. You are so brave.""I am not brave," I gasped out. "I am in pain.""You are brave and in pain. Those things are not mutually exclusive."I would have smiled if I had the energy left. But I did not. I just squeezed his hand tighter and rode out another wave of pain.The hours passed by slowly.I did not know how many hours had gone by. I lost track of time somewhere between the third and fourth hour. The world shrank down to just the room, to the hospital bed, to the intense pain, and to Damon's warm hand in mine.I thought about my mother. She had done this exact thing. She had brought me into the world, had endured this
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Little Life I Carried
ISABELLE'S POV:Some Months Later…The pain I started to feel started in the middle of the night.I woke up to a sharp, twisting sensation in my lower back, a pain that radiated through my entire body and left me gasping for air. I lay there for a moment, my hand pressed against my swollen belly, trying to figure out what was happening. I had been having practice contractions for weeks now which was the type that were uncomfortable but not painful, it was as if my body was getting ready for the real thing.But this was different and I reached over and shook Damon's shoulder hard that I nearly punched him."Damon," I whispered, my voice shaking. "Damon, wake up."He was awake in an instant. He had always been a light sleeper, a habit from his old military days that he had never been able to shake. He sat up, his dark eyes alert, his hand already reaching for the lamp on the nightstand."What is wrong?" he asked, his voice tight with sudden worry. "Are you okay?""I think... I
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Tiny Onesie
ISABELLE'S POV:I stared at it. I stared at it for a long time, blinking to make sure my eyes were not playing tricks on me. The entire world outside the bathroom door seemed to stop spinning. The air grew completely still. Everything faded away except for those two tiny lines.I was pregnant. I was really going to have a baby.I slid down to the floor, pulling my knees to my chest, and I started to cry. I cried because I felt a rush of pure happiness. I cried because a sudden wave of fear washed over me. I cried because I had never wanted anything this much in my entire life.I did not tell him that night.I did not tell him the next night either. I kept putting it off because I wanted to find the absolute perfect moment. I wanted to make the announcement special, something he would remember for the rest of his life.So I made a plan.I drove to a small children's boutique downtown and bought a tiny baby onesie. It was soft white cotton decorated with little gray elephants pla
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Little Miracle
ISABELLE'S POV:The first sign was the tiredness. It crept up on me slowly before hitting me like a wave.I had always been a morning person. I woke up with the sun, ready to face the day, ready to write, ready to conquer whatever challenges lay ahead. But lately, I could barely drag myself out of bed. My limbs felt weighed down, and my eyelids felt glued shut. I was exhausted all the time, no matter how much sleep I managed to get. I would wake up tired, spend the afternoon yawning at my desk, and fall fast asleep on the couch long before dinner time rolled around.Damon noticed. Of course he noticed because he always noticed everything. Nothing ever slipped past him."Are you okay?" he asked one morning, watching me struggle to keep my eyes open over a bowl of cereal."I am fine," I said, trying to flash a convincing smile while blinking rapidly. "Just tired.""You have been tired for weeks, Izzy.""I have been working hard on the manuscript.""You have been napping every s
