Dave POV

Immediately I saw Lydia’s picture, time stood still.

I’m sure this sounds like one of those cheesy lines from movies, but time literally stood still.

Everything just… paused.

Not the room. Not the city outside.

Me.

It was so bad that I didn’t even notice when Sera quietly excused herself and left the office.

One minute she was there.

The next, it was just me.

And that picture.

I don’t even know which shocked me more.

Was it the fact that she’s doing so well?

Or the fact that she has be

I hope she doesn't waste a good man and father figure to go back to a man, that has already proven to be lacking in everything a woman needs from a man

    Theo POVI blinked.“Hello to you too.”“It’s almost ten o’clock.”“I know.”“Why are you calling me at ten o’clock?”“I need your help.”There was silence.Then a delighted gasp.“Oh my God.”I closed my eyes.“Anna.”“Are you finally going to confess?”“Can you please behave like a normal human being for thirty seconds?”“No.”“Of course.”She laughed.“So what happened?”“I want to ask Lydia out.”Another silence.This one was longer.Then she screamed.I immediately pulled the phone away from my ear.“Jesus Christ!”“You want to ask Lydia out!”“Yes.”“Like, actually ask her out?”“Yes.”“Not a business dinner?”“No.”“Not a thank-you dinner?”“No.”“Not some convenient excuse involving pickles?”“Anna.”She laughed so hard that I could barely hear her.“I knew it!”“You knew?”“Please. Theo, you’re not subtle.”“I thought I was.”“You’re a terrible liar.”I sighed.“Can you help me or not?”“Oh, absolutely.”I grabbed a notebook from the drawer.“Good.”“First question.”I uncapp

  • Too Late To Love Me: I Already Left With His Twins   Stayed

    Theo’s POVI dropped my keys onto my desk and loosened the collar of my shirt, but instead of sitting down to work, I stood there staring at the city through the glass windows of my office. The lights below blurred into a thousand tiny points, cars moving between buildings, people rushing toward homes and dinners and lives that had absolutely nothing to do with mine.My mind, unfortunately, had decided to stay at Lydia’s house.More specifically, it had decided to stay on the moment Dave had asked who I was.I could still hear her voice.I walked back to my desk and opened my laptop.The screen illuminated the room.I stared at it.Then opened my email.Scrolled through a few messages.Closed it.Opened a financial report.Read exactly two lines.Closed that too.I leaned back in my chair.“This is ridiculous.”My assistant would have agreed.I was a man who could negotiate a multimillion-dollar acquisition without blinking. I could sit across from a boardroom full of executives and d

  • Too Late To Love Me: I Already Left With His Twins   I was in love

    Theo POV She blinked at me. “You’re always welcome, but… I literally saw you yesterday.” “I know.” “And yet here you are.” I couldn’t help smiling. “I’m a very busy man, as you know. Unfortunately, my schedule has brought me back to your doorstep.” She looked at the package . “Should I be worried?” “Not at all. Anna sent me.” The suspicion disappeared from her face and was immediately replaced by amusement. “What did she do now?” “She sent these.” I lifted the package. “She said she promised you some homemade pickles.” The expression that crossed her face nearly made me laugh. “Pickles?” “Yes.” “Homemade pickles?” “Yes.” “The same pickles I can buy at a supermarket in less than five minutes?” I laughed under my breath. “Apparently.” “And probably for less than whatever she spent on that ridiculous packaging?” “I wouldn’t know.” She took the package from me, shaking her head. “Because she made it sound like she was sending me some rare delicacy from a village in

  • Too Late To Love Me: I Already Left With His Twins   Staring

    Lydia POVI didn’t turn around immediately.“Who?”“Theo.”I slowly placed the pickle back on my plate.Then I turned.Dave was standing near the kitchen counter, watching me.“What about him?”“I don’t know him.”“That sounds like a personal problem.”His eyebrows pulled together.“Lydia.”I sighed. “What?”“Who is he?”I stared at him for a moment.There it was.That tone.That subtle expectation that because we had once been married, he automatically deserved access to every part of my life.“Why?”“Because he’s here.”“So?”“He came to your house.”“Yes.”“He seems familiar with you.”I gave him a look.“I’m sorry. Am I supposed to submit a guest list to you?”“That isn’t what I’m saying.”“Because it sounds exactly like what you’re saying.”His jaw tightened.“I just want to know who spends time around my children.”“And you think I’m careless enough to bring random people around them?”“I didn’t say that.”“You didn’t have to.”The words came out sharper than I intended.For a s

  • Too Late To Love Me: I Already Left With His Twins   Always welcome?

    Lydia POV“Hi, Theo, why are you here?” I said again He smiled. “Aren’t I welcome in your home?”I blinked. “You’re always welcome, but… I literally saw you yesterday.”“I know.”“And yet here you are.”“Yes.” His smile widened, completely unapologetic. “I’m a very busy man, as you know. Unfortunately, my schedule has brought me back to your doorstep.”I looked at the package in his hand. “Should I be worried?”“Not at all. Anna sent me.”Of course she did.I leaned against the doorframe and folded my arms. “What did she do now?”“She sent these.” He lifted the package slightly. “She said she promised you some homemade pickles.”I stared at him.Then at the package.Then back at him.“Pickles?”“Yes.”“Homemade pickles?”“Yes.”“The same pickles I can buy at a supermarket in less than five minutes?”Theo laughed under his breath. “Apparently.”“And probably for less than whatever she spent on that ridiculous packaging?”“I wouldn’t know.”“Because she made it sound like she was sendi

  • Too Late To Love Me: I Already Left With His Twins   Watch out

    Dave POVThe acquisition had consumed the better part of my month.Every day seemed to begin with another meeting and end with another document waiting for my signature. We were upgrading several of our internal systems at the same time, which meant dealing with engineers, consultants, lawyers, investors, department heads, and enough technical jargon to make me question whether I had accidentally enrolled in another university degree. On top of that, government approval was still hanging over the entire project, and anyone who had ever dealt with government processes knew exactly what that meant: paperwork, meetings, revisions, more paperwork, and the occasional phone call that somehow created three more problems instead of solving the original one.I should have been focused entirely on it.Instead, there was a date sitting quietly at the back of my mind.This month.I was seeing my children this month.I didn’t care how complicated the acquisition became. I didn’t care how many meet

    Bernard stepped in, hands clasped neatly in front of him.“I apologize for disturbing you, ma’am. I came by earlier, but there was no response.”I rubbed my eyes. “I was asleep.”“Yes, ma’am.”He said it so respectfully that I almost felt bad for sounding irritated.Almost.“Would you like dinner?”

    Lydia I turned.He was standing a few feet away now, hands in his pockets, his expression unreadable.There was no softness in his face.Just cool detachment.The kind that made the evening breeze feel warmer by comparison.For the first time since he arrived, he looked directly at me and held the
