Chapter 7: Are You Falling for Her?

After Edwin finished his work and took a shower, Cecily was still lost in thought. Suddenly, she felt her body being lifted, and she jumped in surprise, quickly wrapping her arms around Edwin's neck.

"Edwin."

Edwin gently placed her on the bed and began to undress her. Cecily gripped his hand nervously.

As things progressed, Edwin paused and looked at her. Cecily's cheeks turned slightly red. "Dr. Baker said my body isn't fully recovered yet. It'll take some time."

If they wanted a healthy baby.

Edwin furrowed his brow but continued his actions. "It won't happen on the first try..."

Although they had been married for more than a year, hearing him say that still made Cecily feel a bit embarrassed. She nodded and let him continue. However, Edwin was still avoiding kissing her lips. Cecily stubbornly cupped his cheek and pressed her lips against his, and Edwin didn't resist.

Afterward, feeling a bit tired, Cecily lay gently against Edwin's chest. "Edwin."

Edwin responded with a low "Mm."
