THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1107

"What is it?" Caitlin asked, pulling back the covers and getting into bed.

In a single smooth motion, Gordon rolled over, pinning her beneath him. His eyes burned with an intense gaze. "It's been almost seven months."

"What has?"

Gordon continued, his voice low, "It's been almost seven months since you gave birth. It should… it should be okay now, right?"

No one knew the torment he'd endured for the past seven months. He stayed with his wife everyday, but he couldn't sleep with her At most, he could rely on his own hand. If this went on any longer, Gordon thought he might actually go insane.

Even before Caitlin got pregnant, he had researched it. Doctors recommended waiting three to six months after a C-section before resuming intimacy to avoid any physical harm. Gordon had painstakingly counted down the days past the six-month mark, but he'd waited even longer, just to be sure Caitlin was fully recovered.

"You should go take a shower first," Caitlin said.

"Already did, in the guest bathroom." With that, he leaned in and kissed her.

The lights went out.

He reached over to the nightstand and grabbed a condom.

The whole sequence was carried out with practiced ease.

Caitlin and Gordon were heading out of town for business the next day.

Now that Beatrice was getting older, even with the postpartum doulas, she couldn't manage three mischievous babies on her own. So, Caitlin and Gordon decided to take the triplets to Gonzales Manor.

Stuart and Carey were tasked with the grand responsibility of babysitting.

"Jasper, Silas, Gemma! You're all so adorable! Come here!"

The three babies looked like perfect dolls from a storybook. Carey couldn't even decide which one to pick up first.

Stuart, however, scooped up two at once.

Carey picked up the middle child. "Jasper, look at your grandpa playing favorites, not even holding you! But Grandma isn't biased. Grandma loves our Jasper the most."

Keira and Fortune returned from their walk in the park to find the three little ones there, and the two elders were ecstatic. "Jasper, Silas, and Gemma are here!"
