Dorothy glanced at Everett, who had already shifted his gaze and was walking ahead, cradling their daughter in his arms.

She let her eyelashes flutter downwards for a brief moment before taking hold of her son's hand and hurrying to catch up.

She had no recollection of how they got back to their room, but she was certain of one thing—Everett must have carried her.

When she woke up again, it was two in the morning.

As she slowly opened her eyes, she could hear the sound of Everett's steady breathing behind her.

He was sleeping deeply, lying there properly without a hand draped over her waist like before when he seemed to fear she would run away.

Sneaking her phone off the nightstand, Dorothy tiptoed to the couch before noticing an unread text message.
