Once Seth drove away with Annie in the car, Adam made his way to his car where Zane was waiting for him. He occupied himself with his thoughts as Zane drove.Everything had been perfect. So perfect that Adam couldn't believe life could be this sweet and fulfilling. Kara and his kids were no doubt the best thing to ever happen to him. Tessie got a well deserved judgment of three years imprisonment with a permanent restraining order to stay away from Adam and his family. Adam's Sisters and parents never troubled anymore because of the court's order and Annie's adopted parents had their own fair share of punishment by the court. He won every lawsuit against Tessie's parents and his father with regards to the company which he still successfully runs. Soon enough, they arrived at their little mansion, their home. It took three months for the Sleeves to get their present residence but Adam couldn’t help but think that it was worth it. They didn’t want a place that was too big or too sm
Kara sighed, slightly giving up because she knew she was also at fault.“Forgive me too for keeping something important away from you. I should have let you know my view about us having a baby too soon.” “Come over here!” Adam gestured for her to come closer to him and she did just that. He placed a soft kiss on her lips, caressing her cheek. “Please let’s forget about the past. I promise not to hide anything from you again or give you any form of silent treatment.” “Me too.” “The baby, thank you.” He smiled, looking down at her belly.Katherine chuckled, “It takes two to make a baby.” “I know. It’s just amazing to know we are going to have a child together again. It’s something I’ve secretly wished for. I was not there when you were pregnant with Annie, I wasn’t on good terms with Tessie so I didn’t experience much during Calvin’s pregnancy, we had Anna through surrogacy so this is going to be like my first time, experiencing everything step by step with the woman I love most in
“Is it one of your mistresses?” Oliver asked suspiciously when his friend’s phone rang for the third time. He was seated on the sofa beside Adam in Adam’s luxurious office.“It’s nothing!” Adam’s cold voice came through. He still did not answer the call.Oliver stared at him for a few seconds, trying to find out if something was truly wrong. Just like always, Ollie could tell something was wrong but making Adam open up to him was another thing entirely. He had never known anyone as secretive as his best friend.Oliver was about to continue their conversation when Adam’s phone rang again.
He sighed. He honestly wished Adam could have what he had. ‘A happy home’. “Be careful,” He whispered to Adam after which they both exchanged a hug.The moment Oliver excused himself, the blondie walked in gracefully. She was putting on a revealing red dress.With a smile on her face, She stopped by Adam’s desk, placing her purse on it, then she approached Adam who was on his feet.“Hi baby,” Her low pitch seductive voice came through as She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed Adam on his lips. He didn’t respond. Instead, he pulled away.“Why did you come here when we agreed to meet at the club?”“What difference does it make?”“Stop with the sarcasm, woman!” He raised his voice. “I expect an answer when I ask you a question. Or do I need
Closing the door to the fridge after taking out a bottle of water, Adam internally rolled his eyes when he sighted Tessie standing at the entrance of the kitchen. He acted like he didn’t see her, and just focused on the bottled water in his hand. “11:39 pm. So who were you with, tonight? Natasha, Lucia, Cynthia, Sera or Alicia.” Tessie mocked with her arms folded as she leaned against the wall by the entrance. Adam gulped down the water from the bottle. “I bet it was Diane! Where did you guys fuck? In the car, club restroom, your office
Tessie’s room was the biggest and most beautiful in the house since it was the masters’ bedroom. At some point, Adam had to move out of there for his peace of mind. He converted one of the guest rooms to his own.Entering Tessie’s room, Adam saw her lying comfortably on her bed, watching a movie on her Macbook.“What the hell are you doing here?” Tessie asked, pausing the movie the moment She sighted Adam who was a few steps away from her bed.“What sort of useless figure are you? Would you tell me you didn’t hear our daughter when she was crying her lungs out?”
Adam Sleeves opened his eyes at exactly 6:10 am. No matter how late he slept, he was used to waking up early. Looking to his left-hand side, he saw that Anna and Calvin were still fast asleep. He felt Anna’s forehead with his palm and instantly heaved a sigh of relief when he didn’t feel any temperature. His plan was to take her to the hospital today if the temperature persisted but now that She was okay, going to the hospital was off their to-do list.Gently getting up from the bed, Adam reached for his laptop, cellphone and made his way over to the sofa on the other side of the room. Once settled, he spent the first forty minutes going through his emails and replying to them, after which he started searching for reliable agencies for nannies. Not finding anything impressive, He picked up his phone and dialed Oliver who picked up after
“Hi, Jess.” He greeted his best friend’s wife.“Hi, best man!” Jessica’s teasing voice came through, making Adam smile. He was the best man during her wedding with his best friend, Oliver, so that has been his nickname since then.“Hope you’re good?”“Yeah, thanks. Ollie told me about you needing a nanny. Fortunately, I got one for you.”“Thank you so much, Jess,” Adam said immediately.
