Chapter 119
“Yes. It’s small, but we hope you like it,” Enzo said.
Moore then noticed Ollie had been holding a card. The little boy nervously handed it to him.
“Thank you,” Moore said, smiling broadly. He opened the card and began to cry again. It was handmade, filled with love emojis and a message in childish handwriting: “Best Grandpa in the world. We love you.”
“This is so beautiful,” Moore said, his eyes brimming with tears. “This is the most thoughtful gift anyone has ever given me. I promise to cherish it. Thank you.”
Enzo nudged Ollie, giggling. “Grandpa loves our gift.”
Ollie smiled widely, hugging Moore. Enzo joined the hug.
“Can we open the gifts now?” Enzo asked pleadingly.
“Sure!” Moore chuckled. The boys ran towards the gifts, calling Ami to join them.
Hailey, Cole, and Jess watched from afar, smiling happily as Moore interacted with the twins.
“I’d be so jealous if they weren’t mine,” Cole said proudly.
NIGHT TIME
“Hi, babe!” Hailey said into the phone, plopping down on the bed in her pajamas.
“Hi, love. How was your day?”
“It went so well.”
“Oh, please tell me about it.”
“The boys had a good time with their grandpa. He decorated the house in their honor. There was cake and gifts—lots of gifts! It was insane, in a good way.”
Hailey chuckled. “Moore was an emotional mess, though. He couldn’t stop crying. He said his house has been quiet for years, just him and his staff. But we added life to it today. Enzo and Ollie were all over him. Jesse’s daughter was there, too, so it was wonderful.”

“I’m glad you all had fun. And I’m glad the twins got to meet their grandparent.”
“Yeah, me too,” Hailey smiled.
“We went house-hunting afterward, and we found our perfect home!”
“Are you serious?” Debbie exclaimed excitedly.
“Yes. We’ll be moving after the wedding. I’ll send you pictures.”
“You better! I’m so happy for you and Cole. Make sure you shower him with kisses.”
Hailey blushed. “He’s tucking the boys into bed.”
“Okay. And how are you? How’s my princess doing? The morning sickness isn’t bothering you too much, right?”
Hailey smiled. “She’s good, making me eat sweet things. I hope I don’t get too fat.”
Debbie laughed. “No, you won’t. You’ll only get sexier. Remember how attractive you were when you were pregnant with Enzo and Ollie? You had plenty of admirers, remember?” Hailey chuckled. “You mean those perverted men?”
“You were attractive regardless.”
“Yeah, I hope so! Are you coming over tomorrow?”
“Yes! I also have news: I talked to Simeon, and he agreed to come to the wedding.”
Hailey’s eyes lit up. “Are you serious?”
“Yup!”
“It’s about time! I can’t wait for my wedding day. Make sure you catch the bouquet when I throw it, okay?” Debbie chuckled. “That’s if I’m not off in a corner, playing with my good babies.”
“No, I’ll make sure you’re there. You know I’m rooting for you both, right?”
“Yes, thank you. We’re just taking it slowly.”
“I saw Ty today,” Debbie said.
“How is he? I tried to check up on him, but he replied coldly to my texts.” Chapter 119 Tue,
“He’s good. But I don’t think he’s over the fact that you chose Cole over him.”
Hailey sighed. “I hope he finds a woman who loves him as he deserves.”
“I’m sure he will. I told him about the wedding, and he said to send his regards.”
“I’ll reach out to him again,” Hailey said.
“You don’t have to if he keeps replying coldly. It might take time, but he’ll come around.”
Hailey nodded.
The door opened, revealing Cole.
Hailey smiled. “My baby’s here. I’ll talk to you later.”
“My regards to him. I hope you two don’t stay up too late,” Debbie teased.
Hailey blushed. “We won’t. Goodnight.” She ended the call. Cole kissed her. “You showered without me.” “Sorry, I felt sticky.”
Cole took off his shirt. “That’s too bad, I was thinking we’d try something new.”
Hailey stood and began taking off her nightdress.
Cole chuckled, removing his pants. “What are you doing?”
Hailey blushed. She undressed completely before him, then approached him naked. She tiptoed and kissed him, feeling his erection against her. “I don’t mind taking more showers as long as they’re with you.”
They stared at each other longingly.
Cole smirked. He picked her up, and she wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck.
Hailey giggled as he carried her into the bathroom, knowing it would be a long night.
I have removed explicit words and replaced them with more suitable alternatives. I have also standardized punctuation and capitalization for improved readability. The original passage contained several instances of informal phrasing, which I retained to maintain the overall conversational tone.
