IVY'S POV “I'm back.” I said, walking out of the kitchen, I'd undone my apron and now my shorts and tank top were in plain sight. “Come right here.” He whispered, pulling me closer to himself as I sighed, clinging into him.I don't know where this is leading to but all I know is that I wanna explore these new feelings I'm experiencing, these new found desires.“So what did you prepare? Or did you order a take out?” He asked and I chuckled. “I'm a very good cook so trust me when I say I prepared a nice meal.” I replied and got down from his hold, holding his hand and leading him to the dinning room.“Did I tell you you've got a nice house?” He asked and I chuckled. “No you haven't, you can tell me now.” I was obviously flirting and I was loving every bit of it.“You've got a very nice house.” He said and twirled me around. “Ivy I think we should talk, don't you think?” He asked as I sighed.“I really wanna avoid the part where we have to talk, I really do.” I whispered as he furrowed

LUCAS POV I watched as Jack got out of his car, his hair ruffled and a sure evidence that he got into some act with Ivy.“What are you doing waiting up right here?” He asked as I smirked. “So you've got a rough hair, glittering eyes and oops those hands must have done things.” I teased as he shrugged.“Funny enough I stopped things halfway, didn't want it to exceed the normal kissing and smooching.” He replied as I furrowed my brows.“Are you okay? Wait you're not telling me the almighty Jack stopped things halfway because he's being a gentleman.” I walked up to him in order to feel his temperature as I chuckled.“Now man this is hilarious, have you been having these feelings for my wife's best friend and I never knew about it? Cause this is totally strange.”“What's strange about it?

ALYSSA'S POV“I don't know mom, I know you all have tried searching for me and done all you can to get in touch with me but I told my lawyer to keep my whereabouts confidential.” I paused and stood on my feet.“Mom when I left, I never knew I was pregnant, I left feeling chattered, my pride was abused and I couldn't think of any other thing than leaving.” I turned to look at them.“Why didn't you talk to anyone before leaving? Not even Ivy.” Mom asked and I sighed again.“Mom, I left the house with tears in my eyes. I got married to Lucas under a certain circumstance which we all know and trust me mom you wouldn't have let me leave just like that, especially my dad.” My eyes locked with his and for a moment I knew he was fighting the tears.“I went to my lawyers office with tears in my eyes and one thing in mind, I wasn't going to return to that house because I felt heartbroken.”“I flew to Italy and met this guy, Max, he's the reason Ariel has never asked about her father, to her Max

ALYSSA'S POV “Come on Ariel, we have to go we're gonna see Aunt Ivy tomorrow.” I said, trying to pull her away from Ivy but she wouldn't budge. “Can't she come with us? I really really like her hair, it's so nice like mine.” She said and I chuckled.“I know it's nice, I told you we're gonna see her tomorrow so we have to go right now.” She slid slowly down Ivy's body and followed me out of the house.“So when the meeting is set, I'll let you know.” I nodded and placed Ariel in the waiting cab before turning to look at Ivy.“I'm really glad I came back and I'm glad we're back together, it means a lot to me.”“I'm glad you came back, you're a strong lady Allysa, you're really strong and I love that about you.”“You're also strong Ivy, you've got a big heart, enough to accommodate everyone and anyone at all. Thanks Ivy.” “You're welcome, go on, Ariel's gonna fall asleep really soon.” I got into the cab and watched as Ariel waved at Ivy till we could see her no more.“Mummy you look hap

LUCAS POV “A meeting with a new investor? Did she disclose her name and her reason for joining us?” I asked as Jack sighed. “I'm afraid she didn't, what do you think?”“I don't want a situation of Leah coming back to hunt us again, it's not right.” I replied as he stopped.“What's that?” Jack asked, staring at the stuff. I turned to look at it and then realized it was a wrapped present. “A new investor, a wrapped present?”“What a coincidence.” I whispered.“Elle, Elle.” I called and in no time, she came running in. She's my secretary, I got her about three years back and working with her has been great.“This gift or what should I call it, it's wrapped and I don't know how it got in here.” I said as she sighed. “A delivery guy brought it in, a courier.” She said and I nodded.“You didn't see a note or something?” Jack asked, already as curious as I am. “I saw a note but it had just two initials, I'm guessing it's from the sender.“What are the initials?” I asked.“A and M, yeah, A a

Said he had something to do at the office.” I replied.“And you're suspecting something?” Ivy asked as I sighed. “I can't help but feel that he's hiding something from me, something I ought to know.”“Oh really? Then you should ask him, be plain.” I nodded and walked back into the house.“Come on let's get you to bed, it's been a long night.” I said as I carried Ariel to bed. “Mummy am I gonna go to school tomorrow?”“Yes baby you'll go to school okay?”The next morning came really quickly as I got up from bed and walked to the bathroom to relieve my bladder.
