Lahat ng Kabanata ng Taming the Mayor's Wrath: Kabanata 91 - Kabanata 100

Until the end of that day, I felt like I was floating, and that day I did nothing sensible other than think about what was happening in my family. If Uncle Elias hadn't knocked on my desk, I wouldn't have known he was in my office and right in front of me. Another thing that keeps bothering me is his insistence that I run for President of the country in the upcoming election. I know my political experience is too shallow to aspire to that high position. However, I could not refuse him. Actually, I have already done it several times, and I just suggested that he could run to that position since his position is close to that, but he said he doesn't want to and rather wants me to do it."Looks like you're deep in thought, Lucas. What do you think? Is it about your near filing of candidacy for President?"I just gave him a forced smile."Listen to me, Lucas. Don't you dare miss this opportunity. Why is it so hard to convince you? You have a lot of potential to be a good and reliable Presi

The next day, I did not see Lucas again the moment I woke up. It was almost clear that I couldn't sleep thinking about the day of my departure from the mansion. What I still remember is that I hugged him tightly. Making the most of the time, I can still do it to him. I didn't ask the helpers about Lucas when I came down; they might even suspect that we have some marital problems if I keep doing it. I took Luke to school, but now his nanny is with me everywhere I go."It's Mayor Romanov's order that I can't leave you. I apologize, Madam Adeline; it's just part of my work. I don't want to lose my job. That will only happen if I don't plan to watch over you and your son, Luke. Don't get mad at me, as I am only doing my job. I hope you won't be angry with me if I am being like this now."We were in the car and headed back to the mansion. We have already taken Luke to his school. Without a choice, I just nodded to show her that I understood everything. Even if I get angry, nothing will cha

By the evening of that day, I did not expect Lucas to come home early. Maybe because he told me not to wait for him and eat dinner first earlier that day. Luke and I were only halfway through our dinner when he walked in the door. He joined us to eat instead of going upstairs and changing his clothes first. Something that puzzled me. Of course, I did not expect it because he did it just now during my few months stay here. Lucas prioritizes changing his clothes first after coming home before eating dinner."How's your day, Lucas?" I greeted him first after he kissed me on the right cheek, as he did with Luke, while his eyes shone with joy."It's fine. You guys?""We're fine too. Luke and I were in the playroom all day long. We have nowhere else to go.""Why don't you two go out and shop at the mall or walk and spend time at the park?"I watched him take his food. He carefully placed it on his plate after taking out a utensil. It's funny; everything seems to be normal for us again. It's

From that day on, I felt like I was always walking on a cloud. Maybe because of the attention and love that Lucas gives me. I also noticed that Lucas always came home early from work. His overtime is not as regular as before. Every weekend, he takes us outside, and we do visit different tourist spots in the nearby places. He also provides us with anything we want. He also doesn't stop me and Luke from doing what I like to do. He was doing his best to be a good husband to me and a good father to Luke. I keep catching a glimpse of his improvement every day. Sometimes he gets angry and grumpy, but after that, he makes sure to apologize for his mistakes."Adeline, what do you think is a good plan for Luke's upcoming fifth birthday celebration?"I turned to Lucas when he asked me this. Nice that he mentioned this. I don't even know when Luke's birthday is. I didn't ask his nanny about that. If I reasoned out that I don't remember it because of my amnesia, Lucas might not believe me either.

My hands couldn't stop sweating as a result of even more intense pressure. We are now heading on our way to the airport, three days before Luke's exact birth date. Lucas suggested that we had to do that because, on the day of Luke's birthday, our bodies had already recovered from the fatigue of the long trip."That's fine with me, Lucas." I only replied when he stated that.From the day Lucas declared that we were leaving the country to celebrate Lucas birthday, I couldn't feel at ease thinking about what was going to happen during the day of our flight. I always catch myself floating and spacing out constantly while thinking about it."Maybe nothing bad will happen. I'm just too paranoid and think frightening things. It was just me."I have to convince myself every time I think about it so my heartbeats will slow down."That's right; nothing harmful will come to me or us."Another problem is that I was worried because this was the first time I would board an airliner. I don't know my
