Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 206. Half-sibling
Lucas POVWe did not linger at the house. I only took a quick shower, and after an hour, the three of us were loaded into my car. "I am so excited, Daddy! Uncle Jacob said last time, he would bring me a playmate." That earned a surprised look from me. "Playmate?" Erin nodded to confirm. So do I because I don't have any idea about it. I was thinking, Jacob had something cooking at the hotel that would attract more clientele. When we arrived at the hotel, I noticed how Jacob beefed up his security,and I appreciate the effort. Aside from additional CCTV cameras, I saw security personnel disguised as regular clients roaming around the place. I mentioned these improvements to Jacob when we arrived at the VIP room he reserved for us, and he assured me he was making amends for the loopholes. The incident with Agatha taught him a lot. Then, I noticed Erin's absence. A quick survey of the room, and I saw her with an unfamiliar playmate. Jacob grinned when he saw my reaction. My eyes
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 205. Waiting Arms of My Wife and Child
Lucas POVA smile automatically curled at the corners of my lips when my phone rang with the special ringtone assigned to Katherine. Pulling my gaze away from the document I was reading, I picked up the phone, swiped it open, and put it on a loudspeaker. “Lucas, we are invited to a dinner party at the Smith Hotel.” When she mentioned the dinner appointment, I mentally face-palmed myself because I had forgotten about it. “Yes. Who told you?” I asked, bracing myself. “Veronica.” I thought she would be annoyed that I failed to inform her, but it seemed like my pregnant wife was in a good mood. “You seemed happy, sweetie.”The observation made me happy, too. “Oh, I am,” She admitted. “Veronica is doing well. She and Oliver seemed to have found a meeting ground.” The chirpy tone of her voice was unmistakable.I knew that Katherine worried about her friend, but not to a point where she would force Veronica to make disclosures when she was not yet comfortable with it. She was itch
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 204. Priceless!
Katherine POVI almost dropped the phone when Veronica squealed on the line.“You are pregnant!” There was so much excitement in her voice that a grin found its way to my lips. “Sorry. I haven't been in touch,” I said apologetically, feeling slightly guilty that the news did not come straight from me. I would have wanted to tell her the first time I knew, but I was waiting for her to get in touch, knowing she had so much on her plate right now. Veronica scoffed. The sound was reminiscent of my old friend, and it made me feel better. The idea that she did not hold me accountable assured me. “Oh stop it! I know you'll let me know when you are ready. I don’t hold it against you. I am as guilty as you were."“Don’t be so hard on yourself, Nix, I knew that the past weeks had been hard on you. I am not taking it against you.” Now that we have finally managed to abscond each other for failing to keep in touch, Veronica launched into an excited account of what Lucas’ friends are coo
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 203. Nothing to Worry About
Lucas POV“Bye, Daddy!” Erin waved at me after I slid into the confines of my car. Her eyes crinkled at the corner, making her eyes appear like moonbeams. I pressed the button to open the back passenger window and waved back.She and her mother blew kisses my way, and I pretended to catch them in my hand. Then, I opened my hand and playfully pressed the palm to my lips.The wind carried the sound of her giggles inside my car, and it brought a certain peace in my heart. My gaze lifted in Katherine’s direction. She stepped forward a little and from the open window of the passenger seat, said, “Take care, Lucas. We will miss you.” She was biting her lower lip and a tinge of pink stained her cheeks.Almost two kids, and she was still like this. If only the workload at the office was not chaotic, I could have ditched work to spend time with my family. I promised myself that once order had been restored, I would slack off to spend more time with them. Yesterday, I called Dan to chec
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 202. Ride the Tide with You
Lucas POVThe following days were a bit hectic. Losing three good employees simultaneously affected our daily operation. The HR was finding it hard to find a replacement for Katherine, Veronica, and Oliver. I felt the weight of Oliver’s absence the most. Even when he used to badger and camp in my office, Oliver, no doubt, made my work easier. He is the heart of SF Assist, and our social responsibility arm is feeling the heaviness of his absence, too. Our children's beneficiary asks about him constantly. They miss his easy-going ways. Veronica's absence was sorely missed, too. Her contribution to the marketing department was unprecedented for giving one hundred and one percent to her job. It was the company’s great misfortune to let her go, but who am I to block her from achieving her goals?Veronica was destined for great things. She was born with it. Katherine’s department was crippled by her absence, but I was glad that I did not have to force her to resign. She decided out o
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 201. My Happy Place, Always
Katherine POVAfter a quick trip to the OB-GYN’s clinic and having my blood sample taken to the lab for tests, the result was finally out, and the doctor officially confirmed that I was four weeks pregnant. Lucas looked stumped when he received the news. He had this dazed look on his face, and when he noticed that the doctor and I were staring at him, he scrunched up his face, but the crystal liquid that formed in his eyes did not escape my notice.I chose not to comment because I knew how the news must have affected him."You finally got your wish," I murmured when he was escorting me out of the doctor's office. At first, Lucas looked ready to implode. The news, though one he had been wishing for, seemed to have caught him by surprise. But the funny thing was that he could not erase the smile curling up his lips, making me think it was glued to his face. He even jiggled when he walked. In truth, he was not walking. He was gliding. He even danced on the way down to the ramp, t
