All Chapters of The Affair Baby : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

“You’ll have to come wash your hands before you step in there, Tucker,” Sullivan said as they arrived at the entrance of the nursery. “My son has been raised in a careful environment.”Blaine could not help smiling, even though he felt an ache in his head at the man’s words. Sullivan was sure working it, and putting all his weight behind provoking him.They were at the very door already and Blaine recognized this as a last attempt to disrupt this meeting with his son. He suspected now that Sullivan knew if he fought with him, Ariel would not let him come near her son.She only barely trusted him now, and that had been her motivation to keep him away the whole time, because she believed he would only bring trouble to their son’s life.So he nodded, and said, “I know how it is, I have a daughter too.” He smiled quietly. “Lead the way.”Sullivan smiled brightly, “Your girl,” he said, and gestured to a sink that was hanging from the wall a few feet away. “How old is she?”Blaine turned

From what was supposed to be just a quick hour visit, Blaine stayed almost the whole day. Kan came in a few times, but he did not stay for longer than ten minutes before he left again each time.Watching Oliver now, I was beginning to beat myself up for keeping him away from Blaine. It seemed like theirs was an instant connection. I was not sure if it was because Blaine was big enough to hold him like some teddy bear or because only he seemed to possess the stamina a boisterous Oliver required.I sat with a book, occasionally looking up to watch them from the other end of the nursery, which was larger than many people’s living rooms.At first, I told myself it was this way because Blaine was new to all this and that Oliver would soon tire him out. But that did not happen even way after lunch.At this point, I was beginning to feel bad because it started to seem like everything we had given Oliver up to this point had been inadequate.Inadequate playtime, sunlight, and attention. T

“I am not going to spend time with Tucker. I can’t.” Kan said strongly as I continued watching quietly. “OK,” I said, and walked away. I really was not going to argue about this anymore. It was so not worth it. In the time I was wasting on this, Ophelia was probably coming up with yet another plan to kill me.I walked into the bathroom and shut the door firmly. I did not want to have another naked conversation again today.Kan was sitting calmly on the bed when I walked out. I ignored him as I went about my night routine. Then I stepped out and reached Oliver’s nursery on my way to my father’s suite. He was in a deep sleep with his lips partly opened.I smiled sadly and reached down to gently brush his blonde hair. He would not be a baby for very long. He would grow up and have to deal with the consequences of what my selfishness caused. I sighed and walked away, cleaning the tears that appeared in my eyes. In my father’s room, I found him bent over some type of journal. He s

After my initial shock had passed, I wanted to return the child to her nanny, but I knew that would just be mean. She was finally calm in my arms, although my hair was her major source of entertainment. I could not give her back without my conscience pricking me to death. She had nothing to do with her mother’s sins.And as Blaine had pointed out, she was Oliver’s sister. But I could not help thinking about what would happen if Ophelia walked in here and met her child in my arms.I knew how I would react if I walked in to meet the same. Ophelia was an angry bear I did not want to prick because that was dangerous. I simply wanted to shoot her clean before she got the chance to maul me to death.I shook my head, banishing such evil thoughts when I had a child in my arms, her child.“Do you have a bottle of water for her?” I felt her beginning to get a bit restless again. The nanny quickly ransacked the diaper bag and handed me the bottle.“Olivia?” I raised the bottle up to her face

We dined on the rooftop of the restaurant, surrounded by immaculate glass walls that kept out the cold air, and gave us a clear look at the city below.The rooftop had been cleared for just both of us, and dinner was excellent. That night was probably the most fun I have had with Kan.“We should do this more often,” I said, as I watched him fill a glass and push it to me. He shook his head sadly. “We should have started doing this earlier.” His sadness was infectious and for a few seconds, I did not know what to say.“Well. Better now than never.”He placed his hand over mine on the table, and caressed my knuckles lightly before he raised my hand up to kiss it.It was sometime later, we were done with dessert. Kan had just cleared the bill and stood up to use the restroom before we left when I heard my phone vibrate in my purse.I was feeling so sated and calm for the first time that I was hesitant to perform all the motions that would put my phone in my hand.This was where a P.A.
