(Leigh’s POV)“Kayla! Eloisa!” I called, looking at the three angels at the crib as I buttoned my blouse. I was just done pumping milk, and I felt a little uneasy because this would be my first time leaving my angels alone.I bit my lower lip as I touched their cheeks. At six months, the resemblance with their father was becoming visible, especially my little Alexander. Kayla peeked at the door. “Leave. I’ll take care of them,” she said, carrying Callie in her arms. “I’ll just bathe Callie. This baby needs a bath,” She chuckled, showing me my baby.My eyes widened in surprise, laughing as I pet her head. “What happened to you?” I asked, looking at my colorful dog. She must have played with my nephews and nieces in the backyard again.Eloisa came to the room, raising her eyebrows at Callie as she massaged the side of her breast. “What happened to Callie?” she asked.“The kids were painting in the backyard,” She explained. “And this one seemed to love joining her cousins,” she said, k
(Leigh’s POV)“Elle, do something,” I whisper, begging, almost in tears, as I drag her to the fitting room. “My breasts will explode if I don’t go home right away.”I move the curtain a little to peek outside, hating Zyra for inviting Sebastian again for another dinner. Alex is talking to Alfie, and from my friend and assistant’s annoyed face, I am sure he is still telling him the changes he wants.“I’ll think of something,” she said, also taking a secret look outside. “Let’s get out of here before he becomes suspicious of us,” she grabs my hand and plasters a smile on her lips as we go out of the small room.I hesitate to move, but I let Elle go outside. If Alfie didn’t call this morning, right there outside, something might have happened between Alex and me in the middle of the bright sunny day. He would have found out my deepest secret, not from anyone’s mouth but from my breasts spurting milk at him.Heaving a deep sigh, I looked at the clock hanging on the beautiful interior desi
(Leigh’s POV)Amanda stopped sucking milk for a brief second as her lips quivered, wanting to cry again.“Shhh… Mommy’s here,” I whispered, touching her cheeks. Of all the things she will inherit from me, it was my allergy to dogs and cats. Callie sleeps in our room, but I seldom let her in whenever the twins are on the bed because Amanda gets red patches on her skin when she licks her. Little Alexander has no problem holding her, and like his father, he loves our dog. Callie adores my children, understanding our situation, but when Amanda squeals in excitement, she also gets excited, wanting to play with her.My family says my twins may look like Alex, but in personality, Amanda is so like me, while little Alexander is very much like his father. I trailed my fingers in her face, and as I toucher her soft skin, every part of her reminded me of him.Amanda was finally asleep, and as proof, even when I pulled off my shirt to cover my breast, she didn’t cry.“Are you ready to meet dadd
(Alexander’s POV)“Boss, I don’t understand you,” George walked faster, matching my pace as we walked out of the Administrative Office of the shopping mall.I ignored her.“One minute you were telling me you miss Leigh, and then the next, it’s like you wanted to strangle her for what? Being sweet at Sebastian? Seeing her kissing him and looking so damn beautiful in that wedding gown?” She bit her bottom lip to stop talking when I halted, only to look daggers at her.How can I tell her that I also didn’t understand myself?I just flared up when I saw Sebastian kissing her on the lips that I had just claimed that morning. My heart was screaming angrily that Kayleigh David was mine, and my jealousy overwhelmed me that I wanted to hurt Leigh, confusing her with those pens and punishing her by taking everything away from her. I knew how important her business was to her, and it was not her fault that Zyra wanted them to plan the wedding.“I’m just curious,” George said, raising her hands i
(Alexander’s POV)If only I could magically make Chase appear now here in David’s home, I would bring him here right away. When George and I arrived at their home, there were balloons in the living room, and whatever it was they were celebrating today, I didn’t care.I only care about the babies in the strollers. The truth!I heard Katherine and Vico whining about going to the amusement park as Leigh promised, but when Carlito decided we all go home to talk, no one argued with him. Just like his daughter, he was quiet.“Callie, come to daddy,” I said, sitting on the couch, but she must have felt that something was going on. She only lay on the floor, whimpering between the two strollers, wagging her tail, and looking like she was guarding my children.Twins!I only expected one, but when I found out I had two, I felt Leigh did not just hurt me but stabbed me a million times for lying and keeping my children from me. I love her, but I just could not forgive her right now. From here,
(Alexander’s POV)Alejandro Hearst walked toward the bed, looking at the two babies cutely quivering their lips as their eyes looked around the hotel room. Chase called my father, telling him what had happened, and he went to the hotel right away.With him coming from another country, it took him a day to reach me. I just couldn’t go home with Zyra in my penthouse, and I was not sure if it was best for the twins at their young age to travel far as I thought of bringing them to the farm.George complained last night, not knowing what to do with the babies. Like Chase and me, she is single and has no experience taking care of children, especially four-month-old babies. She even hated Callie for barking at her whenever she would come closer to them, and like the twins, the three of them were crying most of the time.“Boss, this isn’t part of my job,” she said as she changed baby Amanda’s diaper. “Just to remind you, I’m doing this for Leigh.”Always Leigh!When Dad arrived at the hotel,
(Alexander’s POV)Kayla and Eloisa came into the room with little Alexander and baby Amanda. When the twins cried, it was like something snapped inside Leigh’s mind, making her blink. She scrambled to her feet, ignoring me in front of her and seeing only her two children.“Alex…” She cried.Eloisa, her eyes puffy from crying, nodded. “Yes. Alex came back and returned them.”“Are they hungry? Is Alex…” Leigh said, pressing her breasts and shaking her head. “Never mind.”“You have to eat and clean up first, Leigh,” Kayla told her.“Of course,” she said, pacing around the room, not knowing what to do first. “Is Alex -”She stopped again, perhaps she still didn’t know how to ask it, but couldn’t she see me? Kayla placed Amanda in the crib and approached her sister, putting her hands on her shoulder and holding her in place.“Alex is fine. He’s very much okay. You don’t have to worry about him. Listen to me, Kayleigh, gather yourself together because the twins are hungry. Eloisa will help
(Alexander’s POV)With a crib in Kayleigh’s bedroom, it was impossible to add another bed, and despite everyone’s disapproval of letting me stay in her bedroom, they didn’t have the choice when Carlito spoke up, explaining the reason why. I received sullen looks, especially from her brothers, but no one shared their disagreement.I have been staring at her ceiling for an hour now, listening to her even breathing. I felt guilty for taking our children on the day of her birthday, but I didn’t know, and I was already consumed by much anger that I didn’t think much.When I heard baby Amanda cry, I closed my eyes immediately when I felt Leigh move. She got up, still yawning, when she climbed down from the bed, taking our daughter from the crib. She sat on the chair next to the bed and pulled off her sleepwear to expose her breast to her. When I heard her even breathing as she breastfed our baby, I opened my eyes to check on them, watching her look like she was sleeping.As my little girl w
