Celine's POV

I quickly looked away from Edwin and wanted to go into the entrance of my restaurant with my son.

However, Edwin turned to me and spoke, "Hi, good morning. You must be the owner of this Restaurant, right?"

I paused, thankfully, I wore sunglasses and he couldn't see my face properly. I knew that Jace and Clara announced the birth of my second son, Kevin Augustus, online. But they hardly posted his photo, and I didn't want to raise the topic or reopen an old wound by claiming that Kevin was my son and not Clara's.

"Yeah. I am the owner of this Restaurant. Is anything the matter?" I asked Edwin.

Just then, my assistant who governs the Restaurant in my absence and reports to me about the daily sales and bookings, came out to greet me.

She was a young woman in her late twenties, and she wore a white top and black trousers. Her name was Becky Williams.

"Good morning, Madam," Becky quickly greeted me, interrupting my conversation with Edwin. And Kaleb rushed to hug Becky.

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 139

    Celine's POV:As Jace drove the car down the mainland where my parents live, I was nervous, wondering how my mother would react upon seeing me. Would Mom be happy to see me after I had shut them out for almost five years?"Hey, relax. You don't have to be nervous," Jace said as he soon arrived at the old street that led to my father's house.Many renovations had been done to the area, and I could barely recognize some of the old houses. The street had developed compared to the previous year.Surprisingly, Jace didn't ask for my father's house address. He knew the way and didn't need me to give him the destination to the exact house where my parents live."Alright," I replied to Jace's soothing words, because I was sweating. Despite the air-conditioning in the car, beads of sweat marred my forehead.Jace drove smoothly until he parked at the front of my father's house gate and waited for the security man to come and attend to him.Similarly, I gazed backward and caught the sight of the

    Celine's POV:When I arrived at my son's room door, the door creaked open before I could knock."Mom!" Kaleb flew into my arms as he was dressed in a sparkling blue shirt, a white canvas, and black trousers, similarly with what Kevin wore."Kaleb, you both are set," I said to them with a smile, and Kevin smiled and greeted me bashfully, "Good morning, Mom.""Morning, Kevin. How was your night?" I asked, gently putting Kaleb down to stand on his feet after he flew into my arms."My night was fine, Mom," Kevin said, and Diane came out of the room with a smile and greeted me with a bow. "Good morning, Madam.""Morning," I replied before Diane left. I wanted to take a look into my son's room, and I asked them, "Is this room, Kevin? Come and give me a quick tour. How about you, Kaleb, will you love to have your own separate room, or will you like to share a room with your twin brother?"Kaleb peered at Kevin's face and smiled. "I want to stay in Kevin's room, Mom.""Alright. Let me have a

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 137

    Celine's POV;The next morning, it was raining heavily in Tukery Island. However, I had it in my mind to go and see my parents.Waking up around 7:30 am, I sat up on the bed and saw Jace was still sleeping.Stealing a quick glance at his handsome face as we slept in this room, I kissed him on his cheek.Since my return to Jace's mansion, I had not entered my old room. I wanted to go in there, but knowing that my twin sister's stuff was there, I didn't want to touch anything that belonged to her until I have seen her."Babe," Jace's deep voice startled me out of my trance as I sat on the bed thinking about Clara again."What is it, babe?" He asked me, sitting up on the bed as he pulled me closely to his chest."It's nothing," I smiled as I looked at his handsome face. "I was just thinking about going to see Clara today. It's been five years."Tears welled up in my eyes. I knew that I wouldn't be happy seeing my twin sister suffering."It's okay. Everything will be fine," Jace said, wip

  • Substitute Bride; My Husband's Mistakes    Chapter 136

    Celine's POV:I came downstairs wearing a brown dress and a pair of black sandals as I entered the kitchen to check what we have available for lunch.To my surprise, I saw Jace and our two sons seated together at the dining table.I smiled, seeing their happy faces, then I walked up to meet Tina in the kitchen and asked her what we had available for lunch.According to the menu that Tina and Esther had drafted when Clara was around, we had yam porridge as our afternoon meal.Wow, I was taken aback that my twin sister had a menu for what should be prepared.As I thought about Clara, I felt a deep anguish in my heart. It was as if I could hear her pain, her agony, and I know that she was devastated being locked up at the police station.I didn't want to think of myself as the bad sister. I didn't do anything wrong to Clara. I was only trying to help her out.If she felt guilty for being locked up in a day or two or a week, then how I had felt when she locked me for a whole six months pl

    Jace's POV:I watched as my parents spoke to Celine and me, advising us on committing to one another, and I loved that. I loved the smile I saw on Celine's face, and I knew that I could trust her.After my parents left, Adira also invited my wife, and she was happy to see my happiness too.I cannot describe the feeling that stirs in my heart, having Celine in my arms. I had almost lost hope that I would never get to see her again. But I am relieved that I did not give up hope.I knew that if I had not agreed to Luca's offer to help Clara so that she doesn't spend the rest of her life in jail for the crime that she committed, I was scared that out of guilt, Celine might flee from me. But having her now and seeing that she was with me was all that mattered to me.After making love to Celine, I glanced at her relaxed face on the bed and asked her, "Are you hungry?""No," she smiled."Do you need anything?" I asked, knowing that she was already tired from traveling and the unexpected welc

My dear daughter-in-law, if you need anything, don't forget to reach out to me, alright?"I looked at her face, smiling, and said, "Okay, ma'am."Jace held my hand and nudged me to escort his parents as we followed them to their car, parked in the yard."Take care, Celine. Don't forget your promise to me," Mrs. Joy Augustus said before she hopped into her black Range Rover Sport.Jace's father looked at us, his face laced with a smile, as he said, "Jace, remember my advice to you if you don't want to lose your wife again."Jace chuckled and said, "Alright, Father. I'll keep that in mind. Take care of yourself and Mom.""Alright," Mr. Paul Augustus said, as he was a 70-year-old man. He waved at us before he joined his wife in the rear of the car.Jace and I stood next to each other and waved goodbye at his parents. Once their car engine r
