Freya's POV
Mack Ben's departure was reluctant and drawn out. He cradled his son against his chest, pressing gentle kisses to the child's forehead while whispering soft words that seemed to stretch on endlessly. Only when Valerie Victor and Katie Harriet returned with dinner did he finally tear himself away.
"So how did it go? What did you two talk about?" Katie Harriet set down the takeout containers and fixed me with an expectant look.
I kept my expression neutral. "It went fine. He doesn't seem interested in fighting me for custody. He just wants to take Nathan to see Old Master Ben after we visit my grandmother tomorrow."
Valerie Victor nodded approvingly. "That makes sense. Both sets of grandparents have been hoping you'd settle down and have children. Now they're getting their wish."
Katie Harriet leaned forward. "But what about you two? Did he say anything about your relationship?"
"What was he supposed to say?"
