LOGINNATHALIE’S POV š
-
That night, exactly at six o’clock in the evening, Tyler picked me up from my apartment and at exactly 07:30 in the evening, we arrived at a fancy restaurant.
Good thing Avery helped get me ready and let me borrow some clothes; if not, I’d only be in casual wear.
I am wearing a, black one-shoulder mermaid-style maxi dress, with a small black handbag and partnered by black strappy high heels.
“Sofi,”

NATHALIE’S POV š–I waved my hand while smiling. A few moments later, the car in front of me left with Tyler and Sapphire inside.I continued waving until the car was out of sight, then I stopped.“Are you sure you can trust that as*hole guy to watch over Brianna?” Harrison asked, who was next to me.I turned to face him. “What do you think?”I noticed the rise and fall of his chest.He nodded. “I dislike that awful guy, but I have to admit Brianna’s in safe hands with him.”Seems like there’s bad blood over the way Harrison said it.“Thank you for lending them the car.”Tyler and Sapphire used Harrison’s vehicle to get to wherever the private jet was
NATHALIEāS POV šāTyler had a mouth stuffed with pizza. He froze right as he was about to bite into another piece the moment I turned to look at him without moving an inch.āMommy...āI returned my eyes and attention to Sapphire.āWhen we become family, thereās no reason for us to ever part ways.ā Her words were innocent enough, but I could feel how scared and lonely she truly was.āBaby, no matter what happens, we wonāt be separated. Weāre still family.āāMommy, the very same thing happened with Daddy Calix. Then he never came to see me again at Grandma and Grandpaās big house...ā She sniffled and started weeping. āM-mommy...ā she lowered her head.āNo, baby. I will never leave you.āShe shook her head, this time she held back tears.I canāt help but feel troubled by the situation, especially seeing what she feels inside.What happened to her was still imprinted on her heart and mind.If only I could explain to her what happened to Calix. But I canāt... she might not fully underst
NATHALIE’S POV š–“Are you okay?” Calix inquired me“Yes.” I almost stammered. “Did you see it?”“Which one?”“What happened between Tyler and me earlier.”“Yes, I saw it. Why did you ask? Are you planning on not telling me about that?”“No, not like that. Did you hear something?”“Is there something I should hear?” he asked back.One side of his lips arched upward. His gray eyes were not looking at me coldly.There was silence between us as he waited for an answer.“N-Nothing,” was all I said.“When he said he wanted to marry you, I left,” he suddenly explained. “I returned after a brief moment and saw that you had put the box away in your bag. Afterward, I left again and came back once more.”In other words, he did
NATHALIE’S POV š–I followed Tyler with my gaze as he went, and only when he vanished from sight did I finally release a heavy, weary sigh.I still couldn’t believe what he said — what had just happened.I took my phone from my bag, which kept ringing.Seeing Avery’s name on the phone screen, I answered it right away.“Hey, Ave!” I greeted her in a cheerful voice.[“Don’t 'hey Ave' me. Where are you and the kids? I went to your apartment, but your neighbor said they’ve noticed you’re not here for a few days.”]I just realized I still have not mentioned our situation to her.“My kids and I are here, including Ty, in L.A.”[“Los Angeles?!&rdq
NATHALIE’S POV š–“What the fu–” he pressed his lips before he could curse.Whenever Tyler could curse or say bad words due to heavy emotions, he tried not to continue saying them.He does that so my kids can’t hear.As much as possible, he doesn’t want the children to grow up hearing profanity or bad words, especially growing up in an environment where there is always shouting or anger.“Are you considering doing that?” he asked.I told Tyler every plan that could happen when my son and I stayed here for a few months. I also told him what Harrison was proposing.I didn’t want to tell Tyler about that, but I had to. So that if Sapphire calls I can remind Tyler if Calix is āāwith us.“I don’t know yet. The ones staying in the same building is my top consideration for now,” I answered.“Why does he
NATHALIEāS POV šāāI was hoping to tell you this once we were back in Florida, but it wasnāt supposed to come out like this.āā...ā ā Me.āI had something special prepared ā a surprise for you in Florida, but itās clear that I can no longer show it with you.āIām already surprised even at this point. On fact, Iām quite astounded.āNathalie?āāH-Ha?āI couldnāt follow anything he was saying.āDid I surprise you?āāAre you serious about your question, or are you just making sure?ā I asked a little sarcastically.He even smiled warmly and said, āIām sorry. seems like I startled you.āāAnd I was completely caught off guard,ā I added.He chuckled.Itās not like before that I knew nothing about diamonds.Thanks to my daughter, she explained in detail the diamonds she wants set in her designs so Iāve learned how to tell real diamonds from fake ones.From what I can see by how brightly this diamond in the engagement ring sparkles, I can tell itās genuine, and it feels like...āTy, are you se
ZANDER CALIXāS POV-Not counting Nathalieās civil status, which is processing divorce papers, nothing else is updated on her resume. She doesnāt have any criminal records. It seems she hasnāt been to the police station. Her father has already passed away.I put down the folder containing Nathalieās
NATHALIE DAVIESā POV-I let Brianna slip out of the hug and after a moment she pulled away from the hug. She looked at me with her brown innocent eyes, no sadness, no fearāitās an eye thatās purely cute.āDo you have a pancake flavor you like? Like banana, chocolate, nutella, apple, cinnamon?Bria
NATHALIE DAVIESā POV-I canāt deny that I smiled at Estherās last words to me before heading to Brianaās room. It makes me feel like Iām a worthy personāin this job, even though I donāt know how my resume ended up with Sir Calix. Arriving outside Briannaās room, I was about to knock, but it opene
NATHALIE DAVIESā POV-Sir Calix was running through my mind all nightāwhat he had told me.If I was to be fired, it would mean I had to pay my debts to him. This job was all I could count on for my mother and me for other expenses.I shook my head and dismissed the worry. I am still here at Sir C
