“It’s enough play for today Liam, the sky is getting cloudy it might rain soon. Let’s go inside” Aurora announced as the little one kept running around the garden in ecstasy, the joy of having her play with him was evident on his face and he couldn’t contain his happiness.“ I heard it is beautiful to play in the rain unique eyes, why don’t we try it?” He asked jubilantly and she smiled but declined. If his father heard she allowed him to play in the rain, he would definitely have her head.“ You can play in the rain next time Liam but not today okay? you have played enough and it’s time for you to rest and take your meds okay?”The little boy nodded before making a pouty face, he didn’t want to take his medications. How he hated them.Seeing the displeased look on his face, Aurora pulled him into her bosom before stroking his hair gently, “how about I read you a story for an hour?”“You won’t go back on your words right?” He asked, still clinging onto her and she smiled before pickin
Aurora opened her eyes slowly and the little bundle of joy was snuggled closer to her and he had a bright smile on his lips even in his sleep.“How could someone be so cute?” She muttered under her breath as her eyes continued to linger on his face, she was sure he got his father’s unique features.“Why are you ogling at me, unique eyes?” Little Liam asked as he slowly opened his eyes. He has been awake since but when he discovered she enjoyed staring at him, he allowed her to do her bidding.“Naughty” she replied and jokingly pinched his nose,” what do you want for breakfast? I will prepare it and get going, I have my shift in an hour”Sitting up, Liam kissed her forehead before speaking, ``What is your favorite food, I mean what do you like eating for breakfast?”“Hmmmmm, toast with butter”“Very well then, I will have it” saying that he scurried away to the washroom while she sat there smiling at the door as the door opened and Malcolm entered looking as scary as always.“Good morn
It was already past four In the evening when a knock sounded on the door of his study and Malcolm looked up from the work he was doing as his eyes flew to the door. He had one guess, it was either his son or one of his workers.“Come on in”he answered in a deep husky voice and the figure standing outside the door had to breath In and out a few times before pushing the door open.As soon as he saw who it was, Malcolm raised his brows in anticipation at what she had to say now.“Sorry for the disturbance sir” Aurora apologized immediately biting her lips, her bad habit.“What do you want?”he asked, his eyes going back to his laptop.“Actually I have a very important meeting to catch up with and I can’t miss it, '' I already explained to Liam and he allowed me to go. I will make sure to come check on him as soon as I am done sir please” the words flowed out of her mouth like she already rehearsed it and by the way, she already did.Malcolm didn’t say anything for a while until he made a
As soon as Liam heard the sound of his papa’s car driving into the compound, he quickly rushed outside to greet him but he stopped short when he saw Aurora also coming out of the car and his sharp eyes could already guess she looked sad.Instead of greeting his papa, he ran towards her with questions in his eyes.“What happened, unique eyes?” He asked in a concerned tone and she just pulled him to a hug.Malcolm stood beside them for a while before he ventured into the house, he knew how attached his son was to Aurora and it was going to be one hell of a fight to convince him.“ Talk to me, unique eyes, what happened?” This time his voice was laced with tears and she quickly disengaged from him when she heard his voice. She was about to hurt the realest person in her life and it hurt like hell, both of them had just been close for a while but she felt like he was her family and her support.“Liam” she called slowly as she knelt in front of him, “ something urgent came up so I am afra
As soon as she was done with the photo shoot, the woman walked into her office and sank on the sofa. She was visibly tired and her assistant could see that so she quickly poured her a glass of juice.“ Here ma’am” Chloe, her assistant said as she dropped the glass on the table.“ What of the thing I asked you to find out Chloe?” The lady asked again.“Actually ma’am, it is hard to find out but I got to know that the little boy has a serious health condition”Her eyes shot up as she quickly stood up from the sofa.“ why are you only telling me now Chloe? What hospital did you get this information?”“City life” Chloe answered.“Prepare the car at once” she ordered before hurriedly walking out.……The drive to the hospital was a quiet one as a lot ran through the woman’s heart, how would he react after seeing her all this years and what exactly happened to her son to make him frequent the hospital for all those years.Yes, she was Angeline Lucas and she was the divorced wife of Malcolm Ha
The way he barged into Aiden’s made the young director to jolt from tjr work he was doing, Malcolm looked very angry and the veins on his neck were standing out which made Aiden raise his eyebrows in confusion. What would have made the sleeping lion in this man suddenly wake up.“Why do you look so angry, Malcolm?” He asked immediately.“I specifically asked you Aiden not to allow anyone except aurora into my son’s room but you defiled my order and decided to let a random person into the room, am I paying so much so that the security is less than what it should be”Aiden sighed when he finally understood what he meant, “ Look Malcolm, I don’t understand what is wrong with you and Angeline but it is really important that she is near her son especially in these trying times. Liam needs all the love he can get and I am sure Angeline can contribute in that aspect, maybe you don’t want her anywhere near your son but think of how happy he would be if he finally got to know his mother before
Aurora was busy cleaning the little boy’s body when she saw him slowly move his hands and like that his tiny eyes fluttered open slowly.“Mum”was the first word that came out of his mouth and for a moment, Aurora was dumbfounded.“Are you my mum?” He asked again as he turned to her direction tears welled up in her eyes.“You are finally awake Liam, I was so scared” Aurora sincerely said as she placed a kiss on his forehead.“Papa, where is papa?” He asked slowly again. He couldn’t recognize the lady’s face but somewhere deep inside of him, he knew she was connected to him.“I will call him,” Aura replied and dashed out of the room.Malcolm was just sitting idly in his study, his mind seemed to have wandered off because he didn’t hear the door open and it was when he heard her voice that he jolted out of his reverie.“Liam is awake”“Really?” He asked immediately as he shot out of his chair and rushed out of the room, right now he just wanted to see his son and only that.“Liam” he ner
As Malcolm strode into the room and caught sight of Angeline sitting there, all his anger came rushing back into his head and he had to ball his hand into a fist to prevent himself from doing something.“Thank you for coming”Angeline said sincerely as he sat down but he totally ignored her and just kept staring straight at her. This was the woman he loved with the whole of his heart, the only woman he had ever given his all to but she turned back and betrayed him. How did she even have the nerve to come back into their lives?“Malcolm,I….” She began slowly.He cut her short, “Get straight to the point Miss Angeline, I don’t have time to chitchat”Angeline sighed as she closed her eyes and opened it again, “I want to be with Liam in these times, I know I have not been a good mother but let me be there for my son before anything happens”Malcolm scoffed despite his anger, it was actually very hilarious.“You want to be a mother to the son you abandoned seven years ago?” He asked, his v
