🏵️ CHAPTER 40 🏵️ FAST FORWARD TO MONDAY Lena was sent to Denzel's paint house to get an important document. She met Roxy cleaning and dancing to the music it was playing. Roxy saw her and flashed her a robotic smile. " Welcome, Mrs. Estrella " " Thank you, Roxy. How have you been? It's been so long since I saw you. Where have you been? " " Well, for some time now, Master had turned me off and locked me up. Most especially, any time you were coming " The overly excited robot didn't even realize when she snitched on her master. Lena's eyes widened a bit. " He purposefully turns you off whenever I'm coming? Why? " " Well, probably so as to get you to do everything for him " Roxy shrugged. Lena snorted in disbelief. So all this time she has been asking about Roxy, she wasn't even aware the cold man had turned it off so as to frustrate her life. " And why are you here, Miss Lena? " " I came to get some files Mr. Brenton forgot. Erm... which way is his office? " "
🏵️ CHAPTER 41 🏵️ Lena sat in front of her laptop all day in the office, scrolling down the endless pictures of Denzel's ex-wife, Harley. She couldn't stop looking into everything about her. The stunning woman was living the best of her life based on the content she uploads on her social media but sadly there was no picture of her and Denzel. She must have deleted them. However, after endless scrolling, there was one photo available. A photo of Denzel slipping an engagement ring into Harley's finger. Lena groaned angrily and slammed the laptop close. The short woman was super jealous of Harley. Why did she went ahead and let her curiosity take over her? And now, she can't seem to keep the taught that she was nothing compared to Harley, out of her mind. The thought that Denzel wouldn't feel anything for a woman like her. On the other hand, she is still confused about Denzel being the father of her kids. There's a 99℅ possibility that it is true but she doesn't want to jump to a co
🏵️ CHAPTER 42 🏵️ Denzel can be seen with the quadruplets. The four brats were with their bags of popcorn, arguing about the movie they had just watched. Today was a free day for Denzel and even though he didn't want to leave work, he had promised the quadruplets to take them out for a movie. After the movie, he told them to go wait for him in the car while he gets them some snacks. " Ok, ok, calm down all of you " Evans exclaimed. " If we are going to do it this way, then we will just keep on arguing aimlessly. How about rating the movie? " " Starting with Ava. On a scale of 1-10, what will give the movie and why? " " I will give an 8 out of 10 " " Huh? Why? " Aida wasn't pleased with her rating. " The movie is interesting but I prefer DREAM MAKERS over it. That's why " Little Ava shrugged. " I will also give it an 8 " Ryan supported his baby sister. " Well, for me, it's 1000/100. I don't even understand how you can compare it with that boring movie. It's not even close to
🏵️ CHAPTER 43 🏵️ The quadruplets were asked to go upstairs even before they could drop the good news to Lena and Mrs. Amelia also left, giving her and Denzel some privacy. Denzel wasn't happy when he noticed the tears in Lena's eyes. The cold man was about to enquire what was wrong when Lena drop him the request, " Please stay away from my kids " Denzel was taken aback and his brows folded in confusion. Lena's request was weird and out of context. Why will she suddenly ask him to do that? " What do you mean, Lena? " " It's a simple request, Sir. Stay away from my kids, that's all I have to say " Lena turned to leave but Denzel held her arm and pulled her to himself, circling her waist. " What's wrong, Lena? Why are you behaving weirdly? Did something bad happen? " " Please let go of me, Mr. Brenton " Denzel stared into Lena's eyes for some time, trying to know if he could read anything but the only thing he could see was a certain pain in her eyes and that made him let go
🏵️ CHAPTER 44 🏵️ Mrs. Amelia wasn't happy with Lena's sudden decision to move. Fine, she might try to accept her wanting to quit but leaving New City, after knowing that the father her kids have been longing to have was right here with them, was a grave mistake. " Are you aware you're making a mistake, Lena? A mistake that will affect the future of your kids " Lena scoffed with an eye roll. " What mistake? Making them live their whole life without their father? Come on, ma. I lived my whole life not knowing who my mother was and did that change anything? " " It did. It changed a lot of things, Lena. You lived your whole life not knowing what the love of a mother is " " But you filled that hole. You showed me what it is like to feel the love of a mother " " Then, what about your kids? You first-hand know what it is like living without both parents and even if your father did everything he could to fill that hole, there were still things he couldn't feel up. Are you going to m
🏵️ CHAPTER 45 🏵️ Mrs. Amelia headed upstairs to the kids and met the quadruplets crying. Immediately Ava saw her, the little girl climbed down the bed and ran to her. " Grandma, why is Mommy telling us to move? Did we do anything? Did I do anything wrong? Is she angry with us? " The little girl was almost choking on her tears. " If Mommy is angry because I said or did anything wrong, then I'm sorry. I won't do it again. I won't fight with her again, I won't tell her to give me a daddy again and I won't yell at her again, I won't do any of that, I promise..." " Sush, my dear. Calm down, ok? " The woman patted Ava's back to calm the little girl down. She took her back to the bed and helped her sit before passing a glass of water to her. The little girl hiccuped continuously as she drank the water. Gradually, she stopped crying. " Are you feeling better now? " Little Ava nodded slightly. " All of you should stop crying. You know I don't like seeing any of you cry, huh? " The rest
🏵️ CHAPTER 46 🏵️ " Why did you bring me here, Mr. Brenton? " Lena turned to Denzel who smirked. The cold man had driven Lena to a place far from the busy street. It was sunset and the orange color of the sun reflected perfectly on the peaceful atmosphere they were in. There were beautiful trees around and cool fresh air, that can bring a smile to anyone's lips. " Does this place remind you of somewhere? " Denzel finally spoke up after some minutes of silence. " Don't you think this place looks exactly like the forest we both got lost in that day? " Lena could hear him chuckle softly. " Peaceful, with beautiful trees and flowers around. The perfect atmosphere to cool off when one is angry or stressed, don't you think? " Lena couldn't deny it. This place was beautiful. The peaceful aura was already making her mind relax. If it was only her here, she would probably be running around, giggling, and smiling. Denzel let out a deep breath and turned to face Lena. " You want to kno
🏵️ CHAPTER 47 🏵️ " Daddy!! " The quadruplets yelled and ran to Denzel who welcomed them with a smile. They all hugged his legs while giggling happily. " You came for us " The cold man bent slightly to their level. " Don't you guys know that your daddy is a superhero? " " Yey. My daddy is Superman!! " Ava exclaimed and Denzel laughed seeing the happiness on their faces. He looked up at Lena who was staring at them in shock. Standing fully, he said to some of his bodyguards, " Take my kids home, to the mansion precisely. I want them home safe and sound, understood? " " Yes, Sir! " The quadruplets bided goodbye to Denzel and Lena, whose eyes widened in shock, before they were led to the car outside by the bodyguards. The short woman made to run toward them but Denzel held her hand and pulled her back. " Let me go, Mr. Brenton! You can't take my kids away from me, you don't have that right! " She lashed out, almost close to tears, and struggled to break free from Denzel's hold
