I’d felt as if I had been given a new lease of life; even Amber said I was happier, and I didn’t have the balls to confess to her - it was all down to Olivia. I found myself in the kitchen every chance I got. What was the point of being rich if I couldn’t take time off? I was the CEO of Wells Industry. I used to buy companies in bad states, make them profitable again and sell them off. Lately, I’d been buying, but not profiting, as much as I used to. I worried that part of me had lost the spark, the one I’d had when I first started the company. I’d toyed with throwing it all out of the window to stay at home with David when the Nanny left, but then decided I wasn’t cut out to be a full-time dad, let alone give up the company, but now I dreaded working. The idea of not spending time with David, let alone Olivia, annoyed me. No, I wanted to be with her all the time, and him too.

She made me feel I could do no wrong. My ex used to tell me off for spending time in the kitchen, cooking.
