When returning to the room, Elly Campbell was still sitting on the bed, smiling at him.
He walked over to Elly, sat down, and wrapped her body in his embrace. His broad palm rested on her still-flat belly.
"Honey, thank you."
Elly could actually hear a hint of choking up in his voice.
She turned her eyes towards him and saw the glimmer reflected in his eyes, feeling a stir in her heart.
She reached out, spread her hand in front of Adam Jones, "You're welcome."
"Then Mr. Jones, please continue to take care of me for the rest of your life."
"Hmm, I'll take care of you."
Adam's smile spread from his eyes, reaching out to hold Elly's hand, and they looked at each other.
Having stayed up all night, the sky in New Zealand had already brightened.
Adam, invigorated with excitement for the impending little princess, felt not the least bit tired.
On the contrary, Elly had already fallen asleep in Adam's embrace.
