Maurene’S POV Evangeline looked every bit shocked and surprised. I did not know the reason behind her shock because she quickly recovered from it and glanced briefly at Alex who kept his gaze fixated on Liam. I noticed Liam's hands subconscious snaked around my waist and he pulled me to himself. An unreadable expression on his face. "Hello, nice meeting you." His lips pulled a tight smile as he acknowledged Evangeline who just bobbed her head, looking at him with some sort of expression I could not decipher. "I guess you must have recognized who this is." I faced Alex who didn't have an accommodating look on his face at all as he looked at Liam dead in his eyes. "Yes, I do." Liam replied, his tone tight and not willing to offer more information. He extended his hand out to Alex who dropped his gaze to his hand before reaching to take it even though it was quick and brief. "Is... is he your husband?" Evangeline asked, dragging her gaze from Liam to me, her eyes clearly stati

CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO: Meeting Her In Tears Maurene’S POV I walked away from him before he could say anything. The memory of him reaching out to hold me was blurry. All I knew was that I had hurried my steps away from him. The tears I have been trying to hold back escaped traitorously as I continued to wipe them off. I bumped into someone, muttering my apology and not bothering to look up. “Maurene?” Nathaniel ’s voice called me and I halted to a pause immediately. My eyes twitched as the tears rolled down, staining my cheeks. I quickly wiped them off and comported myself before turning to him, and offering him a tight smile. “Nathaniel .” I bit out, hoping I had appeared to be okay. “You…” His eyes keened on me as he took one step further. “Are you okay?” “I am okay. You don't need to worry—” “Babe,” Liam’s voice interrupted us and I flickered my gaze to him. His chest heaved with rapid breaths as he paused to flash his eyes between Nathaniel and I. I flickered my gaze to h

Maurene’S POV “I honestly didn't mean to. But… but… she…” She stuttered. Several possibilities of what might have ensued twirled in my head as I stared at her keenly. I dipped my head lower to let her see I was listening to her. She glanced at her friend who arched a brow in question at what she was saying. “Lovelyn, you don’t need to apologize to her. They belong to high society of course, they think they can downgrade us.” She pulled her friend behind her but the waiter whose name is Lovelyn quickly stepped forward, holding her friend back. She eyed her to stop what she was doing. “I’m really sorry once again. She… She threatened me that if I did not do as she said, she will report me to my boss and make sure I get fired. I know… I know… It was very bad of me to do that but…” “What are you saying, Lovelyn?” Her friend asked, this time talking into line just beside as her friend dropped her head in resignation. She twisted her lips as remorse coated her face. “Im sorry

CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR: Shocked As HellMAURENE’S POVI must have heard wrong. Liam did what?I stood rooted to the spot in full shock. When did he leave? He left without telling me?“Maurene, you can consider taking a cab but the weather forecast today is that there will be heavy rainfall tonight. So it is either you enter now, or you let me leave.” Grayson made an annoyed noise deep in his throat as I figured out what to do next. I should give Liam a benefit of doubt. He could still be inside.Right?“You should go.” I told Grayson who for the first time appeared to be taken aback by my response. “W-What?” He stuttered, making me blink.“I trust Liam. There was no way he would leave me behind. He cannot.” The look etched Grayson’s face said it all. Maybe I was just trying to console myself that Liam could do something like that to me. Even if we had an argument with each other. He could still wait for me since he brought me here.“Have you gotten dumber?” Grayson asked before he could

CHAPTER THIRTY- FIVE: Keep Fighting Maurene’S POV I woke up the next morning with a bad headache. I winced slightly as the pain sunk deeper into my head. I reached for the drawer close to my bed and pulled it open. Taking a tablet of paracetamol, I took two then gulped it down with water. I rested for a while before scrambling down the bed. I dragged my feet out of the room and went downstairs to meet Diana serving the kids breakfast. Their birthday was tomorrow. My phone reminder had reminded me yesterday. An happy smile took over my lips as they looked up to me with bubbly expressions on their faces. They made me remember Evangeline. I had not even called or chatted her up yet since she went missing with her husband. I stopped before the kids, grinning. “A good morning to you, guys!” They all beamed a smile. “Good morning, mommy!” Kylie and Kyle chorused as they chewed on the bread while Kai focused on his meal. He was always in a mood a day before his

CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX: My Daddy Is Alive Maurene’S POV Liam didn't reply to me. He rushed away from me like a coward and his actions only confirmed to me that he was hiding something. I could not place it but I knew that he didn't just leave the party because he thought I had gone. How could he even think like that? Anyway, I was seated with my laptop. I needed to finish up a lot and yet the only thing I could think of was what Liam was probably doing. I shook my head, blew a breath out, and typed Loretta’s name on the internet. I began to surf. She was a top selling fashion designer. Narrowing my eyes on her picture, it showed she has been divorced for over five years now and has no child. Wow. No wonder Liam didn't take her for real. It still doesn't matter. Being divorced did not mean the end of the world, did it? I went through her business page and saw the dress she had made for me. I did not even see the price tag. Clicking the link to her site, there were so many lim

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN: Birthday Surprise Maurene’S POV Today was my kids’ birthday. As usual, they woke up so bubbly. Diana and I had done a great job of decorating the house with balloons and plasters of their pictures from when they were infants till now. The way my heart swelled at the joyful grins on their lips made me grin too. I was always satisfied when I see them happy. This was yet another day to remind me that I didn't get to tell Nathaniel about them before he chased me out of the pack house that day. Maybe it was good. Who knows? “Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you!” Diana and I chorused as the three of them stepped into the living room, rubbing the sleep off their faces. Their lips split into grins as I crouched to their level. “Happy Birthday to you, my babies!” I pulled them into a hug and I heard Kai groan before relaxing into my arms. We pulled apart and Diana greeted them as well. They looked around the place, obviously not r

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT: Refusing The Birthday Gift Maurene’S POV Pearl beads. Kai had once said he wanted something like that. I thought he was just saying it casually. Pearl beads were expensive, especially this one. It is the one of its sort and I did not need to be told this would be worth millions. Tony can never buy the minimum. He always would buy luxurious things. Kai stared at the gift in my hand like he had been expecting it. Actually, Liam had jokingly said he would get it for him when he saw it. I thought he was bluffing. I did moy know he still had it in mind to get it for him. “No, I don't think you should gift him this.” I disagreed completely. He rose to his feet, his figure towering over me as he arched his brows. “Maurene?” I looked up to him, shaking my head. “This… This is too expensive for a young boy. I don't want them wearing things that would attract rubbish.” I told him. He glanced at the kids before taking me by the hand and leading me out. He clo

CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE: A Call To Leave Maurene’S POV I let him fix it and walked away to assist Diana with adding the drinks on the table. The kids gathered around the table and I chuckled, shocked that I actually did with everything that was happening. It has been quite a long time since I was overwhelmed with emotions like this. I was just happy that my kids were celebrating their fifth year birthday. It has been five years. Five years since their father sent me out of his house and I had to survive on my own. They placed their hands on the knife and Diana reached to light up the candle on the cake. There were just three candles that were placed at a good distance between them. I figured my kids would have different wishes. Like Kylie, she might wish for a unicorn while Kyle could wish for a new car then Kai, I knew it would definitely be his father to come back. I smiled at the triplets and said, "Now, it's time to make a wish and blow out the candles. One, two, three, blow!" T

CHAPTER FORTY: The Headlines Maurene’S POV I dimmed my eyes, remembering what Kai had said last night. I had gone to him to ask him if he wanted the gift Liam gave him and I didn't expect the response he gave me at all. What was I doing that my kids didn't even recognize me as their mother? I swallowed the hard lump in my throat as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. He got it for me so I should keep it. I even went further to ask if he really wanted his father, he nodded in response. I knew it would be hard trying to tell him that he could not have his father. I had never told them anything about their father. They never asked and I was okay with it until Kai began to ask me about him. I didn't like refusing my kids when they asked for things but still, not his father. That I cannot give him. I wish I could just tell him like that but it was not as easy as it sounded. It would be like I wanted to break his heart. Maybe I should have painted the picture of their fat
