Operation Rainy Day Retreat

last update Last Updated: 2025-01-14 01:04:33

The triplets wasted no time turning their grand plan into action. By morning, they had commandeered an entire team of Alaric’s household staff, issuing orders with the authority of seasoned CEOs.

“Sprinklers need to be timed perfectly!” Arlyle directed, pointing to the garden pavilion. “If the water pressure is uneven, it’ll ruin the effect. We want a gentle drizzle, not a storm.”

“Don’t forget the lavender candles!” Allie chimed in, overseeing a delivery of supplies. “Place them around the pavilion, but not too close to the sprinklers. We don’t want them to go out when the ‘rain’ starts.”

Artie, clipboard in hand, inspected the seating arrangement. “Dad, you need to make sure the tea is brewed just right. Mommy doesn’t like it too strong or too weak.”

Alaric stood in the middle of the chaos, equal parts amused and overwhelmed. “You’re treating this like a corporate project,” he said, shaking his head.

“It is a project,” Allie replied matter-of-factly. “Your graduation project. If you

    Morning in the Royale mansion was anything but quiet. The triplets had woken Alaric at dawn, bouncing on his bed like tiny generals ready for war.“Today’s lesson starts now, Daddy!” Arlyle declared, planting his hands on his hips. Alaric groaned, pulling a pillow over his face. “Can’t we start at a more reasonable hour? Like noon?”“No!” Allie said, yanking the pillow away. “You’re on a tight schedule if you want Mommy to even look at you with anything other than disappointment.”Artie waved a notebook in front of Alaric’s face. “We’ve outlined a full day’s curriculum. You’re going to learn everything there is to know about winning Mommy back.”Alaric sat up, rubbing his temples. “Alright, alright. What’s on the agenda?” Arlyle opened the notebook to the first page, where the words “Lesson One: Thoughtful Communication” were written in bold letters.Lesson One: Thoughtful CommunicationThe triplets led Alaric to the breakfast table, where a phone sat waiting for him. “First,” Arlyle

    The following morning, Alaric woke to the sight of three small figures standing at the foot of his bed, their arms crossed in unison.“Daddy, it’s time to get up,” Arlyle said sternly, tapping his watch. “We have a full day planned,” Allie added, holding up the same notebook from the day before.Artie opened a tablet, showing a neatly designed timetable. “Here’s today’s schedule. Lesson One: Emotional Intelligence. Lesson Two: Romantic Gestures. Lesson Three: Quality Time.” Alaric sat up, groaning. “Do you three ever sleep? Or do you just plan my life 24/7?”“We sleep,” Arlyle said matter-of-factly. “But we dream about Mommy and Daddy being happy together, so technically, we’re always working.”“First,” Artie began as they all sat in the living room, “you need to learn how to read Mommy’s emotions. She’s very good at hiding how she feels, but there are always clues.”“Like what?” Alaric asked, leaning forward. Allie jumped in. “When Mommy’s upset but doesn’t want to say it, she’ll cle

    Alaric sat at the dining table, the morning sun streaming through the windows. The triplets had declared it another day of "Daddy Training," and he was bracing himself for whatever new lessons they had devised.“Daddy, today’s theme is patience,” Allie announced, flipping open their now-iconic notebook. “Patience?” Alaric repeated. “I think I’ve been patient enough.”Arlyle shook his head. “You think patience is just about waiting, but it’s more than that. It’s about understanding, listening, and not rushing Mommy into anything.”Artie tapped the table with his tiny finger. “You can’t bulldoze your way into Mommy’s heart. You have to show her that you respect her pace and decisions.” Alaric sighed. “Fine. What’s the plan for today?”Lesson One: Listening Without InterruptingThe triplets set up a role-play exercise in the living room. “I’ll be Mommy,” Allie declared, sitting primly on the couch. “Okay,” Alaric said, sitting across from her.Allie began, her tone serious. “I had a real

    Elona sat in her study, her fingers delicately tracing the spine of an ancient medical text. The warm glow of the lamp illuminated her soft features, though her expression was clouded with thought. Despite her outward calm, her heart carried a whirlwind of emotions.Her children had taken to their father in ways she hadn’t expected. Their loyalty, their determination to mold Alaric into a better man, it was endearing but also bittersweet. She couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt. No matter how independent she had become, a part of her knew that her children deserved to see their parents together, happy and whole.Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of tiny feet pattering down the hallway. A soft knock followed. “Mommy?” Allie’s small voice called. “Come in, sweetheart,” Elona replied, setting her book aside.The door creaked open, and the triplets shuffled in, their faces lit with mischievous excitement. “Mommy, can we talk?” Artie asked, climbing onto the arm of her chair.

    The Royale estate was no stranger to luxury or discipline. The sprawling mansion was home to countless house staff, from chefs and cleaners to personal assistants and security.Alaric’s reputation as the richest man in Country M had cultivated an aura of untouchable authority. His every word was treated as law, his presence commanding reverence wherever he went. That was, until the triplets decided to take over.The house staff couldn't help but exchange glances as Alaric strode into the grand dining hall with Arlyle, Artie, and Allie flanking him like little generals. The scene was surreal. This man, known for his cold detachment and domineering demeanor, now carried a clipboard handed to him by his youngest daughter.“Daddy, don’t forget your tasks for the day,” Allie said, her tone firm but sweet. “Yes, Young Miss,” Alaric said with a sigh, his tone devoid of his usual authority.The head chef, who had worked for the Royale family for over a decade, nearly dropped the souffle he wa

    The Royale estate buzzed with activity as Alaric's "love training" entered its next phase. The triplets, with their natural knack for leadership, had taken over a small section of the mansion, transforming it into a makeshift “academy.” The staff watched in awe as the godlike tycoon followed every instruction from his children, their fearless commands cutting through his usual air of authority.“Alright, Daddy, let’s go over today’s schedule,” Arlyle said, pointing to the timetable mounted on the wall of the “training room.” Alaric squinted at the chart, which was color-coded and meticulously detailed.7:00 AM – Morning greeting call to Mommy.8:00 AM – Compliment practice with staff.12:00 PM – Research break: reading books on relationships.3:00 PM – Roleplay: how to apologize properly.6:00 PM – Evening call to Mommy.“Compliment practice?” Alaric asked, raising an eyebrow. “Mommy loves sincere compliments,” Allie explained. “You’re not very good at giving them yet, so practice is

    Morning sunlight streamed through the grand windows of the Royale mansion, casting a warm glow on the bustling household. The triplets were up early, preparing to implement the next phase of Alaric’s “love training.” While the young masterminds strategized, the house staff watched in awe, whispering among themselves about how their once untouchable boss had turned into a lovesick student under the guidance of his precocious children.“Daddy,” Arlyle began, holding a clipboard that seemed far too professional for his age. “We’ve noticed a weakness in your approach.” Alaric, sitting at the dining table with a cup of coffee, raised an eyebrow. “And what’s that?”“You’re too predictable,” Allie chimed in, tapping her tiny finger on the clipboard. Artie nodded solemnly. “Mommy is a strong, independent woman. She doesn’t need grand gestures all the time. She values thoughtfulness and consistency.”“And you haven’t shown her enough of that,” Arlyle added. Alaric frowned. “I’ve been calling

    Alaric stood outside Elona's villa cum apothecary, nervously fidgeting with the small bouquet of white lilies in his hand. The triplets had instructed him to surprise her with small gestures, and he hoped this would be the perfect opportunity.Taking a deep breath, he pushed open the door and stepped inside. Elona looked up from her desk, a hint of surprise on her face. "Alaric, what are you doing here?" she asked, her tone neutral."I brought you some flowers," he said, holding out the bouquet. "I know how much you love white lilies." Elona's expression softened slightly as she accepted the flowers. "Thank you, Alaric. They're beautiful."Alaric smiled, feeling a sense of relief. "I'm glad you like them. I was thinking... maybe we could grab lunch together? I'd love to catch up and talk about the kids."Elona raised an eyebrow, clearly hesitant. "I don't know, Alaric. I'm pretty busy today." Alaric nodded understandingly. "No worries, I completely get it. Maybe some other time, then?

    Five Years Later… The Royale Estate had never been more alive. Lush gardens stretched as far as the eye could see, the scent of blooming roses mingling with the crisp afternoon air. The laughter of children echoed across the grounds, filling the estate with warmth and joy. Elona stood on the grand balcony, watching the scene below unfold with a soft smile on her lips. She leaned against Alaric, his strong arm wrapped protectively around her waist. "Look at them," she murmured, pride evident in her voice. Down in the courtyard, the Terrific Trio, Arlyle, Artie, and Allie, were engrossed in an intense discussion, their expressions far too serious for eleven-year-olds. But then again, they weren’t just any eleven-year-olds. They were national geniuses, their intelligence unmatched by any child their age. Their names graced international forums, scientific journals, an

    The grand ballroom of the Royale Estate was transformed into a breathtaking vision of elegance. Cascading chandeliers bathed the space in golden light, while delicate floral arrangements lined the aisle, each petal whispering a tale of love, redemption, and new beginnings. Alaric Royale stood at the altar, dressed in a custom-tailored black tuxedo, his stance confident yet solemn. His heart pounded with anticipation as he awaited the arrival of the woman who had become his world, the woman he had almost lost but fought to reclaim. The billboards across Country M broadcasted the event live, capturing every moment in stunning detail. The entire nation bore witness to the redemption of a man who had once taken love for granted but now vowed to cherish it with his entire being. When Elona finally appeared at the entrance, time seemed to stand still.Dressed in an exquisite white gown

  • Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret   A Love Rekindled

    Alaric Royale had always been a man who thrived under pressure. Business deals, billion-dollar investments, and ruthless negotiations had been his expertise for years. But now, he was navigating an entirely different battlefield, one that involved diaper changes, bedtime stories, and earning the love of the family he had once taken for granted. And he was determined not to fail. For him, this was the dawn of a new routine, and one he fully embraced with sincerity. The sun had barely risen when Elona stirred awake, expecting to hear the usual fussing of the twins. But instead, the room was quiet. Too quiet. She sat up, her heart thudding. Had she overslept? Where were the babies?Slipping on her robe, she made her way downstairs, only to pause at the sight before her. Alaric was in the living room, still in his sleepwear, holding one of the twins in his arms while feeding the othe

    Elona studied him, searching for any trace of deception, but all she saw was sincerity, painful, soul-deep sincerity. “I don’t know if I can ever fully forgive you,” she admitted quietly. “But… I want to try.” Alaric’s head snapped up, eyes widening slightly. “You do?” Elona sighed. “The truth is, despite everything, a part of me never stopped wanting you. And maybe that’s my own weakness. But I can’t ignore that you’re their father, that we’re still married, and that...” she hesitated, “...that I once loved you.” The admission hung in the air between them, fragile and uncertain. Alaric leaned forward slightly, his voice a gentle plea. “Then let me earn it. Let me show you that I can be the man you deserve. I don’t expect you to trust me overnight, but I’ll spend every day proving it to you.” Elona exhaled. “We’ll take it one step at a time.” A spark of hope ignited in Alaric’s g

    “I missed both of your pregnancies. I wasn’t there when you needed me most. I let others dictate my life, let my pride get in the way.” His jaw clenched. “And because of that, I lost the woman who should have been my priority from the beginning.” Elona crossed her arms, her eyes filled with lingering pain. “You don’t just get to regret things now and expect everything to be okay. You should know that by now." “I know,” he admitted. “And I don’t expect forgiveness overnight. But I need you to know, Elona, that I regret it every single day. Every time I look at our children, I think about what I missed. I think about how you went through it all alone because I was too blind to see what truly mattered.” Elona bit her lip, fighting against the emotions rising inside her. It was rare to see Alaric this open, this vulnerable. But bitterness still lingered in her heart. “You always put business first, believed

  • Blind Deception: The CEO's Regret   The Burden Of Regret

    The battle was won. The threats to Elona were gone. But for Alaric Royale, the war was far from over. As the chaos of the past weeks settled, silence became his enemy. It was in that silence that the heavy burden of his failures pressed down on him. He had conquered enemies, crushed empires, and outmaneuvered some of the most ruthless minds in the world. Yet, when it came to the one thing that truly mattered, his family, he had failed spectacularly. Alaric sat alone in his office, a crystal glass of whiskey untouched on his desk. The city skyline stretched before him, bright and alive, yet he felt nothing but emptiness. His fingers hovered over his phone. He had Elona’s number memorized, yet every time he thought of calling her, he hesitated. What could he say? I’m sorry? I regret everything? Please come back to me? None of it felt enough. He hadn’t just missed a few anniversaries or forgotten a birthday.

    After the banquet’s revelations had settled, Alaric, Elona, and Master Fu gathered in the Guild’s war room, a dimly lit chamber filled with ancient scrolls, maps, and strategic plans. The room was filled with the scent of aged parchment and burning incense, a signature of Master Fu’s personal quarters.Seated at the head of the table, Master Fu steepled his fingers, his piercing eyes scanning the duo before him. “We need to discuss Gwen Mason.”Elona exhaled sharply, her expression darkening at the mention of the former queen consort of Country S. “She got away too easily,” she muttered.Alaric leaned back in his chair, his face unreadable but his fingers tapping rhythmically against the armrest. “Even after the ICC took over, the Mason family pulled their strings, and now she walks free on ‘bail.’ It’s a mockery of justice.”Master Fu nodded gravely. “The ICC was never going to hold her accountable. The Mason family has deep connections, and the former king… well, let’s just say he w

    Kian stood at the wide-open balcony of his guest bedroom at the Guild headquarters, his fingers curled tightly around the ornate railing. The cool night air did little to ease the storm raging inside him. He had spent his life running, from the truth, from himself, from the consequences of his choices. But tonight, he could no longer hide.Behind him, the grand doors creaked open, and light footsteps approached. Elona. He knew her presence before he even turned. “You wanted to see me?” she asked, her voice calm but distant.Kian inhaled deeply, steeling himself before facing her. She looked as poised as ever, her striking features illuminated by the moonlight, but there was something else, something he had put there. A wound, not of steel or poison, but of betrayal.“Elona…” he hesitated, his throat tightening. “There’s something I need to say. Something I should have said a long time ago.” She crossed her arms, waiting. “I’m listening.”His fingers clenched at his sides before he for

    The following evening, the banquet hall of the Guild of Shadows was alive with activity. The grand space had been transformed into an elegant but fortified venue. Guards were positioned at key points, watching for any sign of trouble. Elite members of the guild mingled with the esteemed guests, their presence a reminder that tonight was not just a celebration, it was a test. And Elona was at the center of it all. At the head table sat Master Fu, his keen eyes observing the room, knowing that tonight was not just about celebration, it was about revelation. Elona sat beside him, her face calm and composed, but a storm brewed within. The triplets were at a smaller table nearby, excitedly whispering to one another, while Kian sat to her other side, his expression unreadable.Then, Alaric walked in. Dressed in a sharp black suit, exuding dominance, his icy blue eyes swept the hall before landing on Elona. For a brief moment, time seemed to stand still between them. But before he could tak
