CELINE POV

-

After I picked up the kids and we were going out, we saw Conrad in the parking lot.

When Conrad’s gaze caught ours, he immediately came over to us.

“Boss Lance ordered me to pick you up.”

“Didn’t Lance understand what I told him?”

I clearly told him earlier before I got out of the car that I don’t want us to have any kind of connection and that even picking up anyone who has anything to do with him, he shouldn’t do it anymore.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Madame. Boss Lance just sent me here to pick you up. Shall we go?”

The weather was cloudy.

I just nodded and went in the direction of Conrad’s car.

“Where is Daddy superhero?” Sunny asked as we entered.

“He’s busy,” Conrad replied.

“He is just like Daddy Tristan, always busy.”

I stroked Sunny’s hair and didn’t comment. It would be better if Lance got away from us sooner rather than later before Sunny got completely attached to him.

The trip from school to the outside of the apartment building was quick, and a

    CELINE POV - “Thank you,” I told the tenant after she finished talking to me. Before entering, I let out a sigh. The tenant informed me that from today the rent for the apartment will be 10,350 dollars. Almost five times the rent last month. I need to pass the interview and get a job; that kind of rent is out of my budget. “Who are you talking to?” Sabrina asked as I entered. “Nothing.” “You sure?” "Hmmm,” I nodded. “Did you bring all your stuff?” I asked, changing the topic. Sabrina will be back in New York to focus on her review. “Yep. It will be a while before I get back here. I have an exam coming up, so I need to focus on my review. But—” she raised her one pointed finger as if she were stopping me from speaking. "But it doesn’t mean that if you need me, you’ll disturb my review. That’s a big no. Okay?” I just nodded. “Oh! Maybe that’s the one who will pick me up,” Sabrina said when someone rang the doorbell. Sabrina opened the door excitedly, and upon se

    CELINE POV-I pulled back the arm he was holding with a frown.I waited for him to speak, but after a few seconds, he did not clarify what he was saying; instead, he just fixed his gaze at me.“I don’t have time for this.” I broke the silence, and this is my saying goodbye to him.Before I could walk away to leave Tristan, the door opened again, and two men entered. The one with a name plate is the manager, and the one wearing the suit, I think, is the owner of the restaurant that Lucian Morgan summoned.“Sir Lucian Morgan?” The owner of this restaurant called in surprise. “I didn’t know you were here. Is there anything I can do for you?”I looked at Tristan. “Give me your resume,” he said as he extended his palm.”“Why?” I was confused.“To know why you will not get a job in this city.”I glanced at the two men who had just entered. When they stared at my face, the manager whispered something to the owner of this restaurant, who was circling with his pair of eyes after that.By tha

Mummy found a better and cheaper apartment to rent .” My excuse.“I hope there is a park or playground where we are moving,” Sunny commented excitedly.I put on a face mask for them.I grabbed one large bag and grabbed two large suitcases. I tried to fit all our belongings into the two suitcases. I only brought the most important things.“Let’s go, sweethearts.”When we got out and got off the apartment, I immediately flagged down the first taxi I saw.“Mummy, Auntie Sabrina won’t be coming with us?” Sunny question as we boarded the taxi.“No, sweetheart. But she will visit us again like before,” I replied. “At the airport,” I told the driver as he got in.I won

I want a big playground where Skye and I can play.”“We’re going to build a playground there.”Sunny clapped her hands in joy at Lance’s words.Once they arrived in front of a van, his people opened it, and Lance got in with Sunny.After he lowered Sunny from the seat, he looked at me. “Get in,” he coldly ordered me.I let Skye out of the car first, then we went to the second row of seats together.When we sat down, the door closed, and the driver got

    CELINE POV-I placed a pillow on Sunny’s back before sitting her upright and in a comfortable position. I took the salmeterol from her bag and put the mouthpiece on her lips.“Breathe quickly and deeply,” I instructed Sunny.After doing that, I removed her inhaler, then Skye counted one to six seconds.“Breath out slowly,” I instructed her again.After that, Skye held Sunny’s hand and counted again.“One… Two… Three… Four… Five… Six…”I glanced at Lance, who was on the edge of the bed. He is intently looking at Sunny, his forearm on his chest while his other elbow rests there where his knuckle was moving.“Sixty!”Once Skye’s count reached sixty, we repeated the procedure from the beginning. We did this ten times until Sunny’s feeling and breathing were normal.“She is okay now,” I grabbed Lance’s attention.His blue sea eyes widened as he looked at me. “What do I need to do?”“Get out of this room.”“What?”He asked in disbelief.“I’ll put them to sleep first,” I quickly added.“Oh…

He came here earlier, and then he invited Sunny to leave the room.”“What?”I immediately stood up. “Come here.” I hurriedly called Skye.I right away picked Skye up. I didn’t even think to put on my slippers as I hurried out of the room.Did he take Sunny while I was sleeping? Will he keep Sunny away? All this question is freaking me out.“Sunny!” I shouted at the same time I hurried downstairs. “Sunny!”When I got downstairs,

If I continued to leave, I would leave Starr’s grave alone and I wasn’t sure when I would be able to visit her grave, if that happened.“You don’t have to. Starr, is also my…”He didn’t continue because he wasn’t sure if he could say that.“She is also your child.” I continued.A moment of silence prevailed around us before we heard Skye calling me from the kitchen.“We’re being called by…” I mentally took a deep breath. “Let’s go?”I didn’t wait for him to answer but instead I walked past him. I felt strange as if something heavy had been removed from my chest, which I was so delighted to feel relieved... I want to hug him.“Yes, sweetheart?” I asked Skye when we arrived at the kitchen.“Mummy, I’m hungry. Aren’t we going to eat yet?” Sunny asked.“We will eat now. I’ll just get the rest of our food.” I told them.“Can I sit beside you, Sunny?” I heard Lance asking permission as I grabbed the broccoli

We’re the only people here.” Sunny commented in amazement.“Did you rent the entire mall?” I pump Lance.“Yeah. So that we can enjoy it. Sunny can't be with the many people in the mall.”“Yes, she is, but you don’t have to do this. What about the other people who–”“Celine, don’t think about other people first. I only rented this mall, not the entire mall in Chicago. Also, Sunny could enjoy the mall without worrying and without you worrying about what might happen to her because of the crowded people.”I watch Sunny and Skye holding hands. Sunny pointed at the playground that we can’t go to sometimes or, if we did, we didn't last more than five minutes because of the number of people and children playing there.I think Lance is right, maybe it’s not bad to be a little bit egoistic for the happiness of my kids.“Mummy, can we go there first?” Sunny asked wh

I put the basin back in its original place, threw away the white towel, and washed my hands. After drying my hands, I walked out of the bathroom. The moment I opened the door, I found Celine standing in front of it, waiting for me.“What now?” I asked with annoyance. “What do you need again–”I didn’t expect what she did. With her kisses, she silenced me.She came close to me, tip toe, and pulled the collar of dress polo and kissed me. Her lips moved slowly and gently. My body reacted quickly to her simple kiss. My hands moved spontaneously towards her body and brought her body closer to mine. I slide my tongue inside her mouth and gently bite her nibble and, a moan escapes from her mouth.I brought Celine to the bed without breaking the kiss. I let go of the kiss when she sat down on the bed and I leaned forward as she held my nape.“Lance…” she ca

But if she deceived me for five years, she was capable of doing it again.I wasn’t mad at Bianca for having an affair with Lucian. I was mad at her for ignoring our friendship and my trust in her.“About…”I looked at my phone screen and saw she ended the call. Out of nowhere, worry overcame me.I attempted to phone her number, but my attempt failed. Was it possible she had something important to say? If so, what about it?
