“Daisy’s fragile right now. She had been so devastated when she learned that we were married. I can’t just let her suffer alone like that.”

I nodded. Like it was all my fault, when all along, it was I who had fallen prey to their drama.

  • LOVE'S OVERRATED: Mr. Sterling, We're Over!   Chapter 142. Making Mommy Blush

    Josh Morgan Sterling POVWe settled for breakfast not long after. As usual, these past few days, the table was lively and messy.There was a sense of comfort in hearing the children’s chatter alongside the sounds of cutlery as they scraped the plates.“Bacon! I want bacon!” Zoe said enthusiastically.The aroma of the smoked pork seemed to wake her up. Her siblings immediately reached out to fork bacon slices off the platter and place them on her plate.She beamed her thanks before she grabbed her fork and knife, cut a piece of bacon, and speared it before placing it daintily in her mouth.“Good?” Olivia asked.She grinned and gave her mother a thumbs up.I smiled, too, and wiped the grease off the side of her mouth with the pad of my thumb.Zoe smiled her thanks to me, and then she forked a bacon slice and stood from her seat.“Careful.” I cautioned, guessing her intent. She was rewarding me.When she had successfully placed the bacon on my plate, she beamed at me, waiting for my thank

    Josh Morgan Sterling POVI have been too cocky.I thought I was prepared.The next day at the breakfast table, Olivia was already dressed for work while the triplets were still in their pajamas.Zoe’s head was laid on the table. Her eyes were closed.Leo and Ivy, on the other hand, were helping their Mother prepare the table.I just got in from my early run and was on my way to the kitchen, but I halted when I passed by the dining area and found them there.My family.The beautiful sight made me pause.Then, Olivia turned and was surprised to see me.I was surprised, too. She looked breathtaking. A breath of fresh air.I looked at her wearing beige square pants, a black turtleneck blouse, a camel coat, and high heels.“You look lovely.”It pleased me to note that her cheeks reddened instantly. Emboldened, I snaked my arm around her waist and dropped a quick kiss to her lips, which earned giggles from our girls.“Daddy kissed Mommy!” Zoe and Ivy chanted.“Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” They clappe

    Josh Morgan Sterling POVShe's responding.She wanted me!Elation filled my heart because Olivia did not repulse my kisses. She was always ready.Even when I hurt her, she did not deny me.My chest felt like it was exploding with overwhelming gratitude.But I realized I hadn't done my grand gesture yet.I hope she will be happy with the surprise from me and the triplets.I pulled away abruptly. Putting distance between us. Though she's responsive, I do not want to take her yet.The moment was too premature.I wanted to make it slow, nice, and easy.I just did not expect her to look so hurt."Don't be hurt," I said, holding my palm up as if the action could break the tide of emotions spreading across her face and making her composure crack.In milliseconds, her expression changed to one of undisguised sarcasm."You are pushing me away. Why won't I be hurt? It was like rejecting me all over again."There were tears in her eyes, and I wanted to punch myself in the face for making her fee

    Olivia Barnett POVI saw Josh shake his head. In three strides, he stopped in front of Grandpa and took his gnarled hands. Then, he pressed Grandpa’s hand to his cheek.“If there is anyone who has to apologize, it is I, Grandpa. I am sorry for thinking badly about you. For resenting you through all these years. I thought…” His voice trailed off before he shut his eyes.When he opened them, I saw clarity in his vision. He looked at Grandpa with too much understanding now.And Grandpa? He looked proud of the man Josh is becoming. His eyes lit up like a child on Christmas morning.“Thank you for being the father that I needed.”Grandpa’s smile became sad. He shook his head and met Josh’s gaze with a faraway look on his face. It was as if he was reminded of something that happened too long ago.“No. Don’t thank me. I did it because I failed in my role with your father. And I have to rectify my mistakes with you, or you will end up like him, too.”Grandpa sighed.“And now, it’s your turn t

    Josh Morgan Sterling POV“Okay. We will do as you say.” I said in agreement.Olivia arched a brow. “No more arguments?” She asked as if trying to make sure that she was hearing me right.I nodded. I do not need further convincing. Olivia knew what our children needed. She raised them. She knew what was best for them.Suppose she said that they needed me to make my presence known all the time. That’s what I am going to do.No excess.“They don’t need shortcuts. They need consistency.” She added. “They needed a father they could depend on. A father who will be there when they need him.”“I can be that father,” I told her.“I know.” She nodded, and for me that was enough.“I just thought I needed to make up for the lost time. I owe it to them to give them the best that I can afford.”Olivia shook her head. “Not what you can afford with your money. The children only needed you. The best version of you. It will require adjustments on your part. There are sacrifices involved because rearing

    Josh Morgan Sterling POVAfter inspecting the first venue, we went on to check other venues as well. The children gave the nod to the last place we went to.It was a garden with a view of a man-made lagoon. The children loved it at first glance. I found them with their heads huddled together and then they looked up at me with a determined look on their faces. “We want this place, Daddy. Mommy will like it here.” I nodded and gave the place another second look. The coordinator seemed pleased at my decision. “Thank you for choosing this place.” The realtor and I shook hands, after which, he also shook hands with the children knowing full well that it was their nod that secured the contract for him. The event coordinator started taking notes while we walked through the place. We have an appointment the next day where she is going to present her idea for the venue and the contract for signing. When we got home, we found Olivia was in the living room. Her laptop was open and appears
