"You still keep my name." She murmurs as she inspects my arm, lying on her front with her naked ass fully on display. I thought about covering her name with another tattoo, I even researched about tattoo removal when she left two years ago, but when I'm at the ink shop I can't allow myself to do that. Because I promised us back then that I will only do it when I really don't have any feelings for her, for the fact I still love her like I've been this whole time. "Mason, Amelia." She reads the name under hers as she traces her index finger on it. I can see the smile curved on her face, which brings me to smile as well. "There's still space here." She finally turns to me then lies on her side, putting her head on my biceps. "No, we're good with three names." I kiss her briefly then pull her closer. This feels so surreal, to have my wife back, for good. All this while I've been worried, if she's gonna leave me again, if everything will end the moment four years is up. But I've fina
Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. We had an amazing firsts with all those and now, I feel like I'm the luckiest man to have such a perfect family. Everyday when I wake up she's the first person I see. And every night when I close my eyes, she's the last person I see. I will definitely not get tired of this sight, because she is the best thing to ever happen in my life, even after all that happened. Because those things made me realise how much I love her, no matter what. "Happy anniversary, Sweetheart." I kiss her eyes as soon as I wake up. It's been four years, and I still love her like I had even before I knew about the lies. She stirs, definitely refusing to wake up since we celebrated our anniversary till 3 last night. Or morning, uhh whichever fits. "I love you," I kiss her eyes again, making her groan."Stop it, I wanna sleep." We did ship our kids to Maddy since New Year, so she has all the time in the world to catch up with her sleep. There's nobody to shout at 7
Everything gets easier after you've had some practice. And that includes being constantly abandoned by my now ex-wife. It's like a walk in the park, even after the three months bliss in disguise. Mimi has completely moved on after a year, but Mason sometimes still question why did his mother leave when she promised to continue the superhero bedtime story, the night when everything crumbled. The next day after the whole thing happened, I contacted my lawyer to proceed with the divorce. It took three months to finally settle everything including the custody of the twins. I've gotta say having money is a huge advantage at speeding the procedure, because I couldn't wait to remove her from our life. The day everything was settled, I asked Jordan to pull out all the bodyguards stationed in London that's been guarding her since her first day there. If she gets kidnapped for ransom, well bad news for the bad guys because she's no longer my wife. She's not a Knight anymore. You can murder h
I admit I wasn't just giving a hypothetical question, because I already bought the flight ticket. I was also very confident with my relationship with Augustine, that's why I dare to ask him that, so much as to buy the ticket without him knowing. Because the entire three months we were together, he had been nothing but accommodating and perfect. He didn't mind if I needed to stay late at work to meet my deadlines, he was even calm and composed if I somehow struck his nerve. He was really trying to make our relationship work. After he stormed out of the restaurant, I took a cab to the penthouse but he wasn't there. My babies who're supposed to be sleeping in their room at the back were also gone. I called Maddy to ask for his home address, I didn't care anymore about our whole acting or lying to the family, because I desperately needed to tell Augustine I want him, I want this family, I fucked up. But Maddy wasn't answering the phone, nor William, or even his parents. Nobody answer
"Hey Gia." I hear somebody called Gia's name when I was vacuuming the floor so I immediately stop the noisy machine and turn towards the voice. A red haired lady dressed in a tight fitting dress seems to be surprised once she sees my face so I grin, "Gia's on leave today. I'm replacing her." "Oh." She nods then approaches me with a smile on her pretty face. I've been cleaning houses lately but this morning the agency called for Gia's replacement hence the appearance of yours truly. "We ordered a lot of food for the meeting but I don't think those big bosses are gonna eat them. They will probably go out to dinner once the meeting is over. Or NOT over by the looks of it." She rolls her eyes once she glances at the watch on her wrist. It's almost 9pm."Anyway, I put them at the pantry. Have some, or take all of them if you want to, but do clean up before you leave, okay?" I nod, smiling at the thought of having food till the end of the week. I wonder what food are those? If I can f
[ Bish, I can't come tonight. The vampire just invited me for a movie. ]I roll my eyes at Carrie's text then reply her, [ You know that's just a booty call right? ]She has been crushing on her roommate, Ian Somersault look-alike since last year and this summer they're getting closer after he broke up with his recent girlfriend. Did I mention about the seven girlfriends he had throughout the one year they live together? Pftt, classic fuckboy. [ It's not really a booty call if we live together. And he asked, not called. So not a booty call 😌 ][ Spill the details tomorrow. Which. Btw. Hmmm I saw my ex just now. Nvm, I'll tell u tomorrow. ]As expected she calls me as fast as The Flash, so I accept her face-time call. "Spill! Now! Like right-nowwww!" She shouts with a mascara wand on her right hand. "Are you putting make up for a movie at the couch?" I can't believe this woman. "Shut up, I need to highlight these lashes." "Andddd the cheekbones?" It is so obvious she's putting on
I've always loved working with people who prioritise work-life balance. I even make it a policy in my company for the employees to work a maximum of 8 hours a day at the office. Heck, we even set a reminder on each of their PC to ensure they take a break every 2 hours by disabling any function for 10 minutes, just to force them to walk around and do some stretching. Also, to ensure meetings don't go too long because efficiency is all about wrapping things in a short time, not dragging it with unnecessary info. But Richard Green is an old school man. That's why I prefer to work with Claudia, his daughter who took over his company ten years ago. Too bad Claudia is on maternity leave for a year so Richard is back with his old school methods. Thus this long hour meeting. I hate to break my promise to my kids but I had to when Richard decided we're gonna stay until we fix this problem. Luckily Emma is there, well she's always there to pick up the pieces. I thank God for her presence in
I flee the scene like a coward last night. And I've been restless ever since. My last resort to reset my mood back instead of being affected by her, is to spend time with my precious children. But I have to admit what I did last night, was a total dick move. If a guy does that to my daughter or sister, I will fucking kill him for bullying them like that. So yes, I want to kill myself so bad ever since I got out of there. Hating her doesn't give me the privilege to treat her that way. She's the mother of my children, for God sake."Daddy! Our cookies were sold out yesterday!" Mason is smiling brightly when I enter the dining room. Contrary to his cheerful vibe, Mimi who’s sitting right next to him is pouting while harshly stabbing the chicken sausage on her plate. "Really?" I ignore the little girl and sit at the end of the table. "Yes! We were sold out in only three hours!" "Good job, Mace! I'm so proud of you." I smile at him but the little girl lengthens the pout, almost reac
