"No joke, that chocolate bread was delicious," Danielle said, licking her lips as her boss had ordered several to share.

"Don't worry, I never planned to stay and chat with him for long, and thanks for being with me."

The siblings smiled and continued chatting with her until they arrived at the mansion.

When they reached the entrance, they noticed Jayden was already waiting for them. "Hello, gorgeous," he said as he opened the car door to help her out. "Hello, handsome," she replied with a smile. "And what brings you home early?

"We finished up quickly."

"Liar."

"What?"

"You're here because a couple of little birds told you what happened."

"No...

"Mhm," she hummed, amused.

"Well, maybe, but in my defense, that's why I hired those little birds."

"And we're very pretty little birds," Danielle said, making Deborah laugh.

"Make that two" Max added, causing their bosses to laugh again.

"Well, bosses, we're heading out," Max said.

"See you tomorrow at 10, Danielle announced.

"Maybe..." she sighed.

"Well, let's change the subject and get ready because I've prepared a very special dinner for you tonight." "I can't wait to see what you've planned."

Once they were both dressed, they left the house with Jayden behind the wheel wanting to surprise his beloved with the location.

"Ooh, how mysterious."

"This way, we can enjoy ourselves without any prying eyes."

Deborah smiled at that and allowed her beloved to lead the way.

When they entered the room, it was decorated with romantic elements on the bed and in the bathtub. The terrace doors were open, revealing a round table with their dinner covered, and a small dance floor illuminated by hanging lights with some potted roses around it. "Jayden... this is..." Deborah was admiring the setup when she heard romantic music, and turning around, she saw that her beloved had played it from his phone.

"Now the atmosphere is complete," he said playfully.

"I love your surprise, my love."

"Something relaxing after all the work," he said, taking her hand to start dancing to the soft music.

"Honestly, it's been crazy, and we're only just starting to relax."

"And the reason for this is to have our first celebration with some cheesy stuff since we haven't had anything special like an anniversary for dating or getting engaged," he said as he twirled her slowly. "True, with everything that's happened, we haven't had one of those."

"That's why I did this."

"And you've surprised me with your romantic side."

"Thank you, beautiful."

"That means the next date is on me."

"I'll be looking forward to it."

"But you know, you're right-with everything that's happened, we've forgotten that we're engaged."

"Don't worry, my love. I'm not upset because I knew it wasn't the right time to celebrate or think about that,

Jayden said. "Besides, now we can plan the wedding at our own pace, and James will be in the photos."

"You beat me to it. I was just about to suggest that after James is born, we start planning the wedding since now we're both free to focus on the details and make it exactly how we want"

"I love that plan, although now that I think about it, there's something we won't be able to enjoy on th day."

"Huh? What?"

"On our honeymoon, I'll have to use protection because your body needs time to recover before you can get pregnant again." Deborah blushed instantly at that complaint. "Jayden she protested, making him laugh. "Now I see you're quite the pervert." "But only with you," he said playfully, giving her a kiss on the lips.

They both laughed at their own antics and after a while, they sat down to enjoy dinner.

"And tonight's menu is pasta with grilled chicken and salad with dressing." Jayden announced. uncovering the dishes.

"That sounds delicious, so let's dig in," Deborah said happily as she took a bite of the

"We just need to finish the parking lot details, some furniture for the pool bar, and a few trees for the exterior."

"That's great, love. Soon you'll get a well-deserved break."

"Yes and no, because I'm sure this little guy won't let us rest as much

"True."

"And on your end, how's everything going?"

"Today we finished discussing the facade details, and I insisted on paying for the service."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, because this is my grandfather's legacy, so it's only fair to pay for it since it's in honor of my family's memory," she said. "But later, we can plan something for ourselves." "Alright, love, I respect that," he said, taking her hand. "And tell me, do you already have something in mind?"

"Yes, and-" Deborah suddenly stopped talking and froze.
