Ex-husband wants me back novel

Chapter 620 Chapter 620 +25 Bonus He leaned in closer, lowering his head just enough for her to feel him there-fully present. His hand never left hers. Not when the doctor gave instructions. Not when time seemed to move too fast and too slow all at once. Daven stayed. His eyes never left Althea. And for the first time in his life, he truly felt helpless. He couldn't take her pain away. Couldn't replace it. Couldn't do anything except... endure it with her. "Breathe... now..." The doctor's voice came, firm and steady. Althea followed. And without realizing it, Daven held his breath too.

The next few moments felt impossible to put into words. Then- A cry. Sharp. Clear. It cut through every ounce of tension in the room. Daven froze. Completely. His eyes widened slightly, his breath caught in his chest, as if the world had stopped right at that moment. Althea closed her eyes, tears falling freely now. Her body weakened, but a faint smile appeared on her lips. "Congratulations," the doctor said warmly. "It's a boy." Daven didn't move right away. He was still staring in the direction of that sound, as if needing to be absolutely certain that what he heard... was real.

Then slowly, he stepped forward. Each step felt heavy-not from hesitation, but from the overwhelming weight of something swelling inside his chest. A nurse approached and gently placed the baby in his arms. "Sir, here you go." Daven lifted his hands. And for the first time, they trembled. He was always calm, always composed, always certain in everything he did-Now found his hands unsteady as he received the tiny, fragile life. But the moment the baby rested in his arms... 1/4 Chapter 620 Everything changed. +25 Bonus The world seemed to fall into silence.

Daven looked down at the tiny face in his arms-eyes still closed, skin impossibly soft, the faintest movements barely noticeable. Something inside him gave way. Slowly. Surely. His gaze softened. Completely. The tension was gone. The worry, too. All that remained was a feeling too vast to put into words. "...he's perfect," he whispered. His voice was quiet, as if afraid to disturb the moment. Daven lifted his eyes to Althea. Their gazes met-hers still damp with tears yet filled with warmth. He stepped closer, still cradling their baby carefully. "You were incredible," he said softly.

And this time-he didn't hold anything back. The relief. Your gratitude. The overwhelming love. It was all there, written plainly across his face. "Thank you, my love. Thank you." *** When the delivery room door finally opened-everyone stood almost at the same time. No one spoke. As if that single movement was enough to express everything, they had been holding in. Daven stepped out first. His pace wasn't rushed, but steady. And in his arms-the baby lay peacefully, wrapped in a warm white blanket. For a few seconds, the hallway fell completely silent.

Then Riana covered her mouth with both hands. Tears streamed down her face before she could stop them. Her shoulders trembled lightly as her eyes stayed fixed on the baby in Daven's arms. "Oh my God..." she whispered. Nathan stood beside her. He didn't say much, but the pride and emotion on his face were unmistakable. His eyes glistened, though he kept his posture straight, as always. Josh stepped forward slowly. Not in a hurry. As if moving too fast might somehow break the moment. "He..." he murmured, his voice barely audible.

Grace rose onto her toes beside him, gripping Josh's arm with both hands. "I want to see," she said softly, her curiosity and excitement impossible to hide. Daven lowered himself slightly, giving them a better view. 2/4 Chapter 620 +25 Bonus And there-The baby shifted just a little. So alive. So real. Grace held her breath. "He's so tiny..." she whispered. Josh smiled faintly, his eyes never leaving the baby. "But he's strong." Behind them, Eli stood quietly. Not too close. Not too far. Just there watching. Her eyes never left the baby.

And without realizing it, something warm began to fill her chest. The same feeling she had when she first sat at the Miller family's dining table. The same feeling she felt when she was embraced, accepted... and not turned away. But this time-It was stronger. Deeper. As if this moment... truly bound her to all of them. Daven lifted his gaze, looking at each face before him. The family that had endured so much together. Then he spoke softly, "His name..." His voice wasn't loud. But it was enough to draw everyone into silence again. He turned toward Althea.

The nurse was already wheeling her bed out of the delivery room. She looked exhausted, but her eyes lit up warmly the moment she saw them all. "We've already decided," Daven continued. Althea nodded gently. And this time, his voice steadier, he said, "Chase Callister." Riana let out a soft sob. But this time, it wasn't from tension-It was from an overwhelming rush of emotion. Nathan placed a proud hand on Daven's shoulder. "A good name," he said quietly. "Chase..." Grace repeated, her eyes sparkling. Josh gave a small nod. "He would've liked it," he murmured.

And Eli-smiled, bright and sincere. "It suits him, Mr. Daven." A little while later, everything began to settle. They were moved into a more comfortable recovery room. The lighting was warm-not too bright-just enough to create a sense of calm after everything they had been through, Althea lay back, her body still tired. 3/4 Chapter 620 +25 Bonus Beside her, the baby slept peacefully. His breathing was steady, his face serene-as if unaware of the immense happiness he had brought into the room. Daven sat at her bedside, his hand still holding hers. Not tightly. But not letting go either.

As if he still needed to make sure... that everything was truly okay. "Thank you," he said quietly. Althea turned her head slightly, a faint smile forming on her lips. "For what?" Daven let out a soft breath. His gaze moved from Althea to their baby. "For everything," he answered. For staying by his side. For trusting him again. For giving this family... a new life. Althea followed his gaze. She looked at the baby for a long moment... then slowly turned back to Daven." We're going to be okay," she said softly.

Her eyes drifted to the baby once more-longer this time, as if she wanted to memorize every tiny detail. Then, in a quiet voice filled with meaning, she whispered, "Welcome to our family." Outside, the faint sounds of their family still lingered-Grace's soft laughter, Josh's low whispers, Riana's voice still trembling now and then. All of it blended, filling the room with warmth that felt real. Tangible. And in that room-With love no longer fragile, with wounds slowly healing, with a family that was finally whole-They found what they had been searching for all along. Peace.
