"Why didn't you tell me that your doctor was now the pervert doctor?" Jordan asks as we leave the consultation.“What difference does it make?” I ask and get in the car."All the difference Sam! The guy came on to you, in front of me, while you were bedridden and unable to even react. Did you know that could qualify as harassment?” I laugh at him."Are you by any chance jealous, Jordan?" I say.“Of course I am, you're my fucking woman. I don't like the idea that there are other guys hitting on you, especially in front of me.” I'm taken aback by his confession."Since when do you worry about this?" I ask him and he takes a deep breath."From the moment you agreed to stay with me, give me a chance, from the damn moment I fell in love with you. Satisfied?" my heart leaps with joy and in my stomach, butterflies fly.Hearing him say that out loud was a little embarrassing because we had never really talked about how we felt about each other.But it was also amazing and warming to hear thos

I close my eyes as I taste the risotto that Jordan talked about so much and it was delicious. That would definitely be the starter dish, no argument."Is that the one?" asks the blonde next to me."No doubt! Madam, can you bring us the next dishes so we can choose the main one." I say and the lady with well-groomed gray hair smiles and leaves towards the kitchen.Minutes later I see several waiters bringing all kinds of food, making my mouth water."Try this one Sam." says Jordan and I open my mouth and bite into a piece of fillet.The meat was juicy and tender, it was just right. I let out an involuntary moan and my husband laughed at me."Sorry Mrs. Edith, but it's delicious." I say and she smiles."Imagine dear, you can feel free. I know very well how our body works and tastes during pregnancy." I smiled gratefully at her at the same moment.The next thing was grilled chicken breast, with rice and mashed potatoes, and there I was, dying in love with all that food.[...]Hours later
Consequences Thirty-four
Once again, I found myself in a hospital bed. It seems to have become a sort of karma in my life, and it's truly frustrating. The twins were almost born prematurely, but we made it to the hospital in time, and everything was under control. At this moment, I was resting, under observation for 48 hours, until everything was stable, and I could go home. Jordan, as always, never left my side, not even when Emma or Sean asked him to. He has been an anchor through all these moments. I know he feels guilty, not just for the drastic start to our marriage, but because of Jessica. Mostly her. Despite the mistakes, I know her illness is not his fault, as during their initial involvement, she already showed symptoms, but they never took the time to seek information. Even though Jessica did that, I don't blame her either. I have resentments, fears, and yet she is not to blame for the illness she has. Her bipolar disorder is terrible, and she never imagined she had it and would need treatment. I
Consequences Thirty-five
Even after being discharged from the hospital, I knew I had to do my best to assist with the final details of the company's charity event. Even though the pressure from Jordan and my mother-in-law to rest was understandable, I felt determined and compelled to contribute in the best way possible given the circumstances. I carefully planned my day, prioritizing a balance between rest and work. I decided to do my work in small intervals, avoiding overexertion and ensuring that I could still rest. I worked focusing on the most crucial details of the event. I used my notebook extensively to facilitate my searches and task management. Before we knew it, we had successfully completed the preparations to ensure the event's success, for Jordan, and for his father to see that he was good at what he did. Our commitment to the event was unwavering. We discussed how we could divide the tasks in a way that wouldn't be too demanding for both of us, considering my recovery and well-being. Jordan an
