NATHALIE’S POV

-

I couldn’t immediately process what he had revealed.

What in the wide heck? What is he saying? What happened during the whole week that he is saying all those things?

“Nathalie... Help me. Bring back my daughter’s smile.”

Hearing Sir Calix’s voice was like a wake-up call, and I snapped back to my senses.

I continued to approach him.

I placed the towel on his back and spread it in front of his body.

I sat down facing him. “Stand up first, Sir. You don’t have to do that; there’s no need for you to kneel.”

“I’ll do anything,” his voice pleaded, holding back tears. “If Brianna were to learn I am not her real father, it would leave her with a profound question. The pain wouldn’t be a fleeting moment upon learning the truth; it would resonate deeply and endure. She might carry this wound, this trauma, for the remainder of her life. I would become a permanent source of trauma for her.”

Cupping Sir Calix’s face in my hands, I guided his gaze directly to mine, and a visible s

    NATHALIE’S POV-That natural mint smell, the familiar warm caress of his hand on my arm.“My love...” And that resonant baritone voice would become gentle whenever he referred to it, followed by the heated brush of his lips across my forehead, making their way down to my lips and then my neck.It was such a beautiful dream that I wish it would never end. If my dreams were always like this I wouldn’t mind if I got stuck in this dream with Sir Calix.“I love you more than you know.”My feelings for you run just as deep, Sir Calix. If only I could tell you.In an instant I suddenly opened my eyes as my spirit woke up along with my getting up.I felt my cheek wet. I was going to wipe it, but I couldn’t because I felt my hand being held.I looked to the other side of the bed, and Sir Calix was there, his eyes locked on mine.Then I realized I was lying in his bed – in his arms, in his room and still wearing my scrub suit uniform.Last I remembered, I accompanied him to eat on the balcony.

    NATHALIE’S POV-I turned to look at him. I found him already watching me, his eyes speaking volumes without uttering a word.“What do I need to do to fix this between us?”“Sir, I’m here for Brianna. My only reason for being here is to ensure she isn’t taken away from you. That’s it.”“It’s okay if you don’t love me yet or don’t have feelings for me. Could we at least go back to how we were before for now?:“Sir, how can you possibly convince the social workers that you’ve been taking good care of Brianna when you’re like this?” I deliberately tried to change the subject he wanted to talk about. “Get yourself together.”I was about to stand up again but he tightened his embrace on me again.“”Please don’t leave for now. Just five minutes of us like this," he said, his voice pleading. “I promise I’ll get myself together after this.”“O-Okay…” I agreed.As the minutes drifted by, silence enveloped us and the space around us. It was so quiet that I could hear the rapid thumping of his h

    NATHALIE’S POV-Gripping the tray again, I eased the door open inch by inch, my senses on high alert for any sound of yelling before I fully entered.After a few seconds passed and I still couldn’t hear Sir Calix’s footsteps, I proceeded to open the door and step inside.The moment I stepped inside, the mixed stench of liquor and cigarettes hit me so hard I nearly dropped the tray. Never in my life would I have imagined Sir Calix’s room smelling like this.The scents of alcohol and cigarettes made me cough, a slight ache blooming in my sinuses. The air felt heavy, inducing dizziness and a sensation of blockage in my throat.Since no windows were open, and even the sliding door to the balcony was closed, the smell had nowhere to escape and lingered heavily in the room.The tray of food I brought earlier was just on the floor. It appeared he’d only taken it and brought it inside, but hadn’t bothered to eat a single bite.I continued to enter looking around for Sir Calix but my gaze wa

    NATHALIE’S POV-“Why did it turn out that way?” I couldn’t hide my worry. “What happened?”“Nathalie, you hurt the father and daughter with your sudden leaving. What made you think they’d get over it so quickly? Even if Brianna gets close to everyone around her, the love you gave her is different; nothing can compare. Calix, especially, didn’t have time to process you just up and leaving. They love you, that’s why they were so deeply hurt.”It wasn’t sarcastic, nor was it in a tone blamed me, she was simply stating the obvious reason.“I am not blaming you.” She assured me.“But it really is all my fault.”She didn’t deny it and sighed. “When you pick up your scrub suit, would you mind bringing him some food? He hasn’t been eating properly and mostly just has alcohol in his system. He’s asking for alcohol again right now. Maybe if you gave him food, he’d eat something, even if it’s just a little. Please, just try.”“I’ll try.” I agreed.“Okay, you stay here. I’ll go get some food for

    NATHALIE’S POV-Upon Sir Calix’s immediate receipt of the discharge papers, we departed from the hospital. Currently, we are en route to the mansion.Brianna and I were both in the backseat, she was wrapped in a jacket and sitting on my lap while I hugged her.Inadvertently, my gaze drifted to the rearview mirror, where I unexpectedly found Sir Calix’s eyes meeting mine through the reflection.I avoided his gaze, turning my attention to Brianna and making a show of checking on her, even though she was soundly sleeping.....Upon arriving at the mansion, it was already afternoon, and time for Brianna to take her medicine.When Sir Calix stopped the car at the main door, I gently woke Brianna by softly calling out to her.“Brianna, baby. Brianna, we’re back at the mansion.”After waking her up several times, she finally opened her eyes.I stroked her forehead and neck. “Your body temperature has decreased. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow you’ll be better as long as you take

    NATHALIE’S POV-I’ve been sitting quietly for hours, watching Brianna.I can’t even bring myself to shut my eyes, not for a single moment, until she wakes up, until I’m certain she’s alright, and most importantly, until her fever subsides.On the other side, Sir Calix is ​​sitting on the sofa a little far from the hospital bed, focused on the laptop he sent William a while ago.“Nathalie,” he called me casually.I shifted my gaze to him. “It’s already 3 AM. You need to sleep.”I shook my head. “I can’t sleep either, sir.”He nodded, closed the laptop and stood up. “I’ll buy you some food.”Before I could refuse, he left and exited the private room.I just sighed as I thought about our situation.I want to get out from under his thumb again, but I can’t just leave Brianna behind again.I glanced back at Brianna, and the second I looked at her, my eyes rounded in delight as her pair of brown eyes opened.“Baby...” I whispered.She blinked and her vision became clear. She stared at me f
