Chapter 94

Deborah couldn't resist and stood up, giving the doctor a big hug.

[Thank you for giving me hope.].

"It's nothing, young lady, but I'll accept your thanks in a verbal form once this is all over. Deal?" the doctor asked and saw her nod in agreement. "That's fantastic news, although I must say I'm feeling a bit stiff," Jayden said, stretching after holding the same position throughout the treatment. Thanks for the support, Jayden.] Deborah leaned in to give him a kiss on the cheek.

"You're welcome, my love, but you know, I'd feel even better with a kiss ri-ht here," he said playfully, pointing to his lips and wiggling his eyebrows. "For now, no kissing on the lips. Zero contact for 24 hours," the doctor interjected with a chuckle.

"Boo, now I don't like this treatment anymore," Jayden joked, pouting.

"It's just for today. And even if the baby doesn't like it, you'll have to only eat soft foods or purees, the

doctor instructed.

Both nodded, listening attentively to all the instructions before heading home. They were helping decorate Christian and Caroline's new house later that day.

But first, they stopped by the party supply store to pick up the items they had pre-ordered.

Once at the store, they started browsing to see if anything else caught their eye while waiting for their purchase to be packed,

"Oh, by the way, love, I forgot to mention, while we were with the doctor, I got notified that the stuff for the salon had arrived. Charlotte kindly received everything and saw to it that they were installed," Jayden said.

[That's wonderful, my love! I know Carrie will be thrilled to see her dream come true.] Deborah responded.

"Hm.... You know, I also want to make your dreams come true."

[What do you mean?]

"I want to make your dreams come true too," he said, brushing her hair behind her ear, making her blush.

[You already have.]

"Huh?"

[My dream was to have a beautiful and happy family, something I am... or rather, we are, going to have with you, Jayden.]

"Aww... now I really want to ignore the doctor's advice and kiss you."

[You can't]

"Boo..." he said playfully.

"I'll go check them out," Jayden said. "Meanwhile, take a look around and see if there's anything else we might need for the decorations," he added with a wink

Deborah nodded and began wandering through the aisles, noting that the store had decorations and items for all kinds of celebrations. She noticed several decorations for a gender reveal party, which she didn't need since she already knew her baby's gender, but the cute drawings caught her attention. 'Maybe I can use these decorations next time," she thought, looking at the banner that said, "Is it a girl or a boy?"

"Deborah," a voice startled her, and she turned around to see Roger standing there.

"I by and saw you here."

[And what do you want?]

"Since you've been with Cooper, you've been talking to me rather aggressively. Now I wonder, since when have you been cheating on me with that loser?"

[Unfortunately, I was never like you, but if thinking that makes you happy, go ahead.]

"And who the hell do you think you are to talk to me like that?" Roger said furiously, grabbing her arms tightly. "For better or worse, you're still mine because the child you're carrying has my blood and not that idiot's,"

Deborah frowned, feeling the pain from his grip. But Roger was mistaken about one thing... she was no longer the scared, submissive woman he used to know.

She stomped hard on his foot, making him release one of her arms. With one hand free, she quickly reached into her pocket.

"Help! Please, someone, help me!" a woman's scream echoed through the store.
