Without saying anything, Leo leaned down and kissed her forehead.
Bella's smile softened.
"Bunny..." he murmured.
His voice sounded different now, gentler and more emotional than usual.
"I can't imagine how much pain you went through to bring these beautiful babies into our lives."
He paused, looking into her eyes.
"I wish I could have taken even a little of it away from you."
Bella's expression changed as she listened to him.
Leo swallowed, his gaze moving briefly toward the two tiny babies who had changed their lives forever before returning to his wife.
"I'm forever grateful to you, Bunny. You went through so much to give us this happiness, and I..." His voice faltered slightly. "I don't think I'll ever be able to explain how much it means to me."
His eyes began to fill with tears.
"You've made me the happiest man in the world."
For a moment, he couldn't say anything more.
Bella's lips parted in surprise.
