Peanut's surgery was successful, and my marriage to Lorne also came to an end.
He seemed like a changed man, attentively bringing me iron-rich foods and supplements, apologizing repeatedly, and begging for my forgiveness.
He even transferred the house that was supposed to go to Peanut into my name.
I accepted the practical benefits but ignored everything else.
The agreed-upon deadline finally arrived.
As we left the courthouse, he pulled out a toy from his pocket and said to me with a hint of apology:
"I've let you and sweetheart down, but Felicity, please believe that I love you both. I prepared this gift for the baby long ago, but never got the chance to give it..."
I didn't take it. Instead, I took out something of my own and gave it to him.
"Look at it when you get home."
He was overjoyed, thinking I had softened, and was about to say something more when Fabiana appeared with Peanut.
