Semua Bab Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right: Bab 1771 - Bab 1780

"Relax," Debra said, grabbing Marion's hand. "We've got a plane to catch."Erica burst in. "What's the holdup? The car has been waiting forever."Beside her, their golden retriever wagged its tail and bolted toward them.Ori was two years old now. He was big and healthy.Debra patted his head. "We're taking you on vacation soon, buddy. Excited?"Ori barked, thrilled.Randy rushed to Erica. "You're a mom now. Slow down. Why did you come alone? What if you tripped?"Erica, six months pregnant, rocked short hair and a big belly. "Ori has got my back. Anyone gets close, he's on it.""Good job, Ori," Randy grinned.Ori was sharp, fed by him and Erica when Debra was swamped. Now he keenly guarded the baby bump."Make this trip count," Randy whispered to Marion. "We've lapped you guys. Step it up."He and Erica got married two years ago. Now a kid was on the way. Randy hovered, paranoid about bumps.Debra cleared her throat. "I heard that. To be clear, we're vacating, not baby-mak

Morning came, quiet as usual.Debra slept till noon. She snuggled against Marion, unwilling to get out of bed."Lunch is ready, sleepyhead," he said, ruffling her hair.She clung tighter. "I want to sleep more."For the first few days on the island, she had been on it, up at eight, chilling with Marion by the sea, bingeing shows, cuddling, hitting the villa gym, gaming, and cooking.Then their clocks went haywire. Nights got wild, with no other activities.Marion couldn't keep his hands off her. Now they slept in hard.But it was chill. Every day felt full.Ori padded in with his bowl, frustration flowing in his big eyes.Meals kept sliding later. He had ditched breakfast, syncing with their noon routine.Debra dragged herself up. "You didn't feed him?""He likes Mom doing it," Marion said, shaking his head.It was not like Ori didn't like Marion, but Debra was his favorite."Boy, it's chow time," Debra cooed, grabbing kibble and treats.Ori's tail went nuts.She hit the

Solomon Osborne was born. Days blurred caring for the little guy.Erica was wiped post-birth. Randy hit the postpartum center to hover over her.The kid was dumped on Debra, Marion, and Jordan.At the Potter Mansion, they stared at the newborn daily. The guys figured he'd be cuddly, but he peed everywhere and cried nonstop.Seven days in, Jordan cracked. "Help. Can he shut up?"Unshaven, he'd ditched the office. Files piled up at home.The crib sat in his study, but the wails didn't stop.Marion strolled in, calming the baby like it was nothing. The kid quit crying, but he didn't smile."Man, you're a lifesaver." Jordan gushed.Marion and the baby locked eyes, all serious. His vibe almost spooked the kid."You're freaking him out." Debra rushed in, snagging Solomon.In her arms, he bawled for a while and started giggling.She turned on them. "If you two suck at this, why did you fight to babysit? Now it's all on me.""Who knew a tiny thing could make such a racket?" Jordan

After relentless effort, Debra got pregnant one month after Solomon's birth.It blindsided her. She only twigged when her period skipped the second month.Her mind was still blank when she left the hospital. She recalled Solomon's chaos and braced herself for tough days."Marion," she said, climbing into the car, "when did this kid sneak in?"He thought hard. "That time in the car? Or on the balcony?"She glared, flushed. "Drive."He grinned, seeing her spark back. "Anyway, it's our kid."She grumbled, "It's all your fault. I'm not ready yet.""Hey, that's unfair," he whined.Since she said she wanted a kid, they had ditched protection. No one expected the kid to arrive so soon.The kid was a hustler, rushing to cash in on the good life.They moved to the Potter Mansion to enjoy the top-notch medical setup....One day, a weird package arrived.Marion and Randy were out shopping. Erica was playing with Solomon upstairs. Jordan had gone to work.The package landed with De

Randy and Erica plugged their ears.He hadn't seen Debra so worked up, but Erica got it.It was the pregnancy hormones at work. Her own condition had been worse.She caught Randy snickering and yanked his ear. "Quit laughing. Why did you buy all this? You nuts?"She dragged him off, still griping.Marion scooped Debra up, and she froze mid-rant."Yell at me in private," he murmured.Pregnant, she couldn't fight back. They hit the bedroom fast. He set her on the bed gently. Pregnancy made her glow even more."You're crazy." She pushed against his chest.He looked cool and controlled, but in that department, he was insatiable.It had been a miracle for her to conceive two months after they ditched protection."Just a kiss," he said, grinning. "You think I'd mess around now?""In this, yeah," she said.He chuckled, resisting a tease. "Fair enough."He brushed her cheek. "I bought stuff you like. Nutrition should be sufficient. I'll go make soup for you."She nodded fast, ag
