“Mooooooommmmmmm,” There came the voice of her over-excited younger son. Immediately a smile appeared on her lips.“Calvin, what’s happened, sweetheart? You sound happy.”“Come to the hospital, quick.”“Why? What happened? Are your brother and your dad all right?”“Come quick, quick, quick!!!” Saying this, he disconnected the call. She informed Shailey that she would reach the office a little late and drive toward the hospital.*The moment Sophia entered the room, Calvin ran toward her and jumped on her. Sophia was very well aware of his habits, so she quickly grabbed him.“See, I told you that Mom will come here at this moment if we call her,” Clavin said, looking toward Brandon.“Calvin, it better be important, OR you will be grounded for two days,” Sophia warned. Until now, her babies had never played these types of pranks on her because they knew their mother hated these types of things.“Yes, mom. It is very important,” he assured her with a serious face. “Because nothing can be
“Still, how much?” Calvin asked. “We love mom THIS MUCH,” he said, opening both his hands wide. “Or even more than this.”“That’s good, but I can’t measure my love for your mom, but yes, I can express my love for her in words. If your mom is drowning in the river, and even if I don’t know how to swim, I will love to jump in the river and die by drowning in the river with her instead of living alone.” Brandon confessed, and a lone tear rolled out of his eyes. Colton was quick to wipe it.Jake gasped hearing this. He had no idea that his boss could love someone like that.“Please don’t cry, dad. I didn’t want to make you cry.” Colton said, feeling guilty. He felt like he was the reason his father was crying. He was just confirming that even after the fight, his father wanted to stay with his mom or not. He wanted to know after the fight whether he loved his mother or not. And he got his answers because Sophia taught him that one could fake his smile but not his tears.“I know. I know.”
“Okay, Mom! Okay, Mom!”“Hello, Ma’am, I’m Jake, Mr. Haysbert Caretaker.” Hearing this, Sophia’s eyes narrowed once she was confirmed that her babies were out of the room.“Caretaker?” She asked in a pissed tone, scaring the poor guy who had no idea what did he do? “This was how you were taking care of my Ex-husband?” She sneered. If Jake had thought that his boss could only kick him out of his job, he felt his lady boss could take his soul out of his body.“I.. I… am sorry, Ma’am, but sir didn’t want to hear anything from anyone.” Jake put all the blame on Brandon because he could find another job. His boss kicked him out, but he wouldn’t be able to return from death bed after losing his life.“JAKE,” Brandon glared at him.“Don’t scare him,” Sophia ordered. “You can now leave, Jake.”Once he left, Sophia reached near Brandon and sat on the stool near it. “How’re you feeling now?”“Good.”“I want to hear only the truth, Brandon,” Sophia said in a cold tone, knowing very well that he
Sophia felt goosebumps all over her body, and her throat dried up. She remained staring at him, trying to absorb what just Brandon had said. No, she wasn’t going to ask about Abby because if she would have been in his life, then he wouldn’t have been in this state.After some time, she finally decided to let out the words which were going on in my mind.“You don’t have to lie about ‘I love you’ things just because you want Colton and Calvin in your life.” She chuckled sadly, shaking her head.This was what Brandon was scared of off. She finally stopped trusting but deep down, he knew a part of her would trust him, and he wasn’t going to give up that easily.“No! It’s not about the babies, Sophia.” Brandon responded quickly. “To be honest, I never came for them in the first place. I came here when I got a slight hope that you might be alive when Colton used my black card. Indeed Colton and Calvin are bonuses about whom I had neither expected nor dreamt about, but all these years, I wan
“Please tell me that everything is fine between you two?” Bruce asked happily when he came to know from Jake that they had some serious talk for at least half an hour. Sophia had asked everyone to leave during that serious talk.“I won’t say everything is fine between us NOW. But yes, before leaving for the office, she had hugged me, and her gaze was soft.” Brandon said, recalling how they kept crying in each other's arms until she received a call from her office and she had to leave urgently.“What the fuck?” Bruce hissed. “Don’t tell me that now that you have started sharing your feelings in words, she started speaking in actions.”“First, dare you anything of these words in front of Colton or Calvin because if I will hear them speaking the same, I swear, no one can safe you from Sophia’s wrath,” Brandon said, on which Bruce recalled her conversation with Caroline. He could help but smile sadly. “And second, Sophia needs some time. I can’t expect her to behave normally as if nothing
Bruce and Jake weren't planning on staying at Sophia's flat. Because her flat was not big enough to adjust for everyone, but Calvin solved the problem easily."Mom & Dad will stay in our room. Colton and I will stay in Aunt Eden and Aunt Arya's room, and both uncles can stay in the third room."Though Sophia wanted to go against this arrangement, Calvin got support from his brother, and even Eden and Arya didn't mind sleeping with twins; after all, they had always treated them as their pups."But guys, you two also have a personal life," Bruce said, directly not mentioning their sex life in front of the kids.“Thank you for your concern Bruce but when will we need privacy? We will ask you to sleep in the hall on this sofa cum bed so that boys can get the room in which you both are, and we can get our privacy too. Right, Arya?”“Absolutely. If he is so much concerned about us. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind sleeping here.” Arya agreed with Eden, pointing toward the sofa.“Great. You guys are
Brandon hungrily kissed his woman. He still craved Alcohol, but he knew the taste of Sophia’s lips was like a drug. Neither he used to get over it before. Neither now. And who needed Alcohol when he had his personal cocaine with him?An idiot probably, but he was a fool, a self-aware fool. Who knew with whom he wanted to die, cocaine or Alcohol?A smile appeared on his lips when Sophia started kissing him back with the same affection and love which she used to kiss him then. He wrapped one hand around her waist, and well, he wasn’t the only one who had wrapped his hand around her, but her one hand was around his neck, while the other one was between his hair. He savored her lips like his life was dependent on them, and Sophia accepted everything coming from him.It was the first time he took the advance in kissing her, or she always used to kiss him first. Indeed, Brandon was keeping his words. Maybe, maybe, he wouldn’t repeat the same thing that he did during the first time.She didn’
“Slept well?” Eden asked, more like teased on which Sophia glared at her. Instead of waking up at around six. She slept till eight in the morning.“Colton and Calvin?” She asked, changing the topic.“They are still sleeping, enjoying winter morning. After all, it’s their holiday today.” Arya replied. “By the way, you didn’t answer us whether you slept well or not?”“Yes, I slept well. Why wouldn’t?” She hissed, throwing daggers from her eyes. “Can’t we talk about another topic now?”“Okay fine!!” Eden said before asking, “I checked the company mail yesterday and came to know that Mr. Grayson is pulling out his investment, and then I talked with Shailey from where I came to know you went to convince him not to do so… but something happened in that meeting I guess, isn’t it? So, care to explain what happened all of a sudden because of which most of our shareholders want to pull out their investment from the company?”Sophia knew this was coming become Eden was the CFO of the company, so
