I had just arrived home when I heard the creaking sound of the door. I quickly turn around to catch my stubborn son trying to sneak in.
"And where the hell do you think you are going?!" I roared. He has been gone for days with no words of his whereabouts nor was he answering his phone and now he is back and behaving like nothing happened.
"My room of course, where else?" Nolan said nonchalantly which pisses me off more than anything, I hate when he behaves like this, like he has no care in the world.
"Great! Double great! You disappear for days and when you return you behave this way" I said exasperatedly, I was tired and frustrated at work already then this, to top his careless attitude and way of life.
"Did you see my calls?" I questioned.
"I did. And when someone doesn't answer your calls it means they don't want to talk to you which was embarrassing Dad, you kept on calling, you couldn't even get the hint" he said trying to walk past me and grabbed him by the shirt, pulling him close to me.
"I am still talking and you are going to listen to me" I managed to get out through clenched teeth.
"And I am done talking," Nolan replied, glaring at me.
"I see what you are turning out to be and that is why I came up with this decision, I am hiring a Nanny and a bodyguard for you" I said and he scoffed.
"You wish" he said and burst out into laughter.
"Is there any sign of jokes written on my face?" My statement seemed to have sounded real in his ears and got paused from his rancorous laughter.
"You can't do this to me!" He yelled, with how he was glaring at me one would assume his eyeballs were about to fall off its sockets.
"I can and I have, so get your shit together because if you keep on pulling more stunts so would I" I warned.
"That is the fucking problem with you, you always want to control everyone's life, no matter what you do, I would never bend to your wills!" He yelled and I laughed.
"I only have to control you because as each day goes by you are becoming more of an ass" I fired, glaring at him, I always have to clean the ness he leaves around just to not get our name tainted, the minutes I am done cleaning one of his mess, he moves to another.
"Oh stop with the flatter father, I am only becoming you after all the apple doesn't fall far from its tree" he kept on glaring at me, perhaps he thinks that would piss me off.
"This isn't the behavior of the future heir to the Brown Construction Inc. get your shits together because I wouldn't be around to clean them after you all the time" I said as calmly as I could when I know how pissed at his behavior I am.
"I already told you I have no interest in your successor, I have no interest in the company, you can't tell me what to do and I never asked you to clean after me. Why don't you let the media and the people see the kind of person that you are. A controlling freak!".
"And getting a bodyguard and a fucking Nanny wouldn't stop me and you know that" he smirked and I returned the gesture.
"I guess blocking your credit cards would" I said then walked out of the living room.
The bang in the living room which was a sign of his anger met my ears but I paid no mind to it.

ALEXA'S POV
"Babe, what was it you said you wanted to tell me?" I asked but Cody kept on peppering kisses on my neck and going down south.
"This is serious okay, stop it" I tried to push him away and at last I succeeded.
"I plan to break into the Brown's mansion" he said and I stared at him like he had developed two heads.
"I don't understand, is that what you want to tell me?" I questioned to be sure he wasn't playing one of his pranks on me but the serious expression on his face told me he was dead beat serious about what he had just said.
"No, Cody, that is a bad idea" I warned but he only smiled at me.
"It will only be a bad idea when we don't have a plan, I have a plan, not yet set though but once it is everything will sail well" he said and I shook my head.
"No, I don't want us to do this, I have a bad feeling about this" I cautioned but like the stubborn head that he is he wasn't listening.
"Come on babe, stop being a party pooper, in this case a robbery pooper, everything is going to turn out great and we would be fucking rich!" He exclaimed, joining his hands together like a little kid who has just been given a candy.
"Fine whatever, just don't get us caught" I sighed as I gave up the argument.
"I love you babe," he said and placed a kiss on my lips which brought a smile to my face.
"I love you too"
Cody and I have been dating for three years now, well I am an orphan and Cody is like the only family that I have.
I guess I just have to believe him when he said everything was going to work out fine.
"What plans do you have?" I called out when I remembered he hadn't told me any of his plans yet.
"None yet, I just need to find a way to infiltrate the Brown's mansion. I mean if I can get in then robbing them wouldn't be difficult" he said and I nodded.
"I guess you will just have to work on one then" I sighed and rested back on the pillows.
"And that is where you come in, my love" he said and I quickly sat upright.
"What do you mean?" I asked in confusion.
Alexa didn't hesitate to run into them, embracing him tightly as she buried her face in his shoulder. Nolan's arms wrapped around her just as tightly, holding her close as they both cried.It felt like they stayed that way for an eternity, just holding each other and letting out all the emotions they had been bottling up for so long. When they finally pulled away, Alexa looked up at Nolan, still unable to believe he was really there.Without a word, Nolan leaned down and pressed his lips to hers, the kiss filled with all the love and longing they had been keeping hidden for so long. Alexa's arms wrapped around his neck as she kissed him back, tears still streaming down her face.As they finally pulled away, Nolan took her hand and led her to a nearby bench. They sat down together, still holding hands as they looked into each other's eyes. Nolan took a deep breath before speaking."I'm so sorry, Alexa," he said, his voice filled with regret. "I should have never left like that, I shoul
159Alexa had been carrying the burden of not telling her son Anthony about his father for so long. She knew that Nolan hated her for what happened between them, but she still wanted Anthony to know the truth about his biological father. She had talked about it with her best friend Jade and decided to take matters into her own hands. Days had passed since Alexa wrote the letter to Nolan, and she had been anxiously waiting for his reply. She kept checking her phone for any email or message from him, but there was nothing. She even checked her mailbox day and night, hoping to see a letter from him. But as the days went by, she slowly accepted the fact that Nolan might never respond. Alexa felt heartbroken and disappointed, but she knew that it was what she had expected from him. She had made peace with the fact that Nolan hated her, and that she had to do what was right for her son. Instead of moping around her apartment, she decided to spend the weekend with her kids and Jade. Alexa
CHAPTER 158Alexa woke up to the sound of Nolan's voice singing his latest song, "Echoes of You". She smiled and pressed play again, letting the melody fill her ears. She couldn't help but hum along with the chorus, "You're the echoes of me, the echoes of you, and I'm lost in between, what's false and what's true."As she got ready for her day, Alexa continued to listen to the song on repeat, even while she was in the shower. She was so caught up in the melody that she didn't even realize she was humming along with it until she stepped out and heard herself in the silence.Alexa spent the whole day at school with Nolan's song stuck in her head. She couldn't focus on anything else, not even the lessons, and found herself humming the tune whenever she had the chance to, without even noticing it.As the week passed by, Alexa was approached by a girl at break time. She was minding her own business, eating her meal when the girl came up to her chuckling. The girl pulled out a banner of Nol
CHAPTER 157Three years had passed since Alexa had last seen Nolan. She had only caught glimpses of him on TV a few times since then. In the meantime, she had been busy raising her son, who bore a striking resemblance to Nolan.As Alexa kissed her son goodbye and turned to Jade, she couldn't help but feel grateful for her help. Jade had moved in with her to help pay the rent, and they had been taking turns caring for their children while working. Jade was currently calming down her daughter, who was having a tantrum."Thank you so much for helping me, Jade," Alexa said with a smile. "I don't know how I would have managed without you."Jade laughed and replied, "Don't be silly, Lex. We're like family now. I love your son like my own, and I don't mind helping you out at all."Alexa felt a sense of relief wash over her as she hugged Jade. It was comforting to know that she had someone she could rely on. As Jade pulled her aside, she whispered to her, "You need to tell your son the truth
CHAPTER 156Alexa looked at Bobby and thanked him for volunteering to take care of her son. She couldn't afford a full-time nanny, so she was grateful for Bobby's help. Bobby smiled at Alexa and told her that he understood her need to save money for her newborn. He was surprised that she had just been discharged from the hospital a month ago and was already back to work. Alexa reassured him that she had been through a lot and could endure any amount of pain.Bobby teased Alexa about missing her routine of watching "Rockstar Cutie" on TV. Alexa laughed and said she didn't have time for that anymore. After bidding farewell to Bobby, Alexa locked the back door and went to the counter where the TV was on. She switched the sign to "closed" as she knew there wouldn't be any customers at midnight.As the live performance was announced by the talk show host, Alexa smiled as she watched Nolan sing the same song he sang to her while they ate in the garden. It was a punk version of "Grow Old Wit
CHAPTER 155Alexa woke up to the sound of the roosters crowing outside her window. She stretched and yawned, feeling the weight of her baby bump as she got out of bed. She walked to the bathroom, splashed her face with water, and brushed her teeth. She took a moment to admire her growing belly and wondered what her baby would look like.After getting dressed, Alexa headed to the convenience store she managed. She unlocked the doors, turned on the lights, and started organizing the shelves. Her staff came in one by one, and they greeted her with smiles and hellos."Good morning, Lexie," one of her staff members said."Good morning," Alexa replied with a smile.Alexa loved her job. She enjoyed interacting with customers, organizing products, and managing her staff. It was a fresh start for her, and she was grateful for the opportunity.As the day went on, Alexa's thoughts drifted to Nolan. She wondered how he was doing and if he ever thought about her. She missed him, but she knew she h
