BBAP CHAPTER 104
“Mom! Can you please call Papa?” Denver came out of the pool with a shark-designed lifesaver hanging on his waist. His hair was wet, and he had this wide smile plastered on his face. Dalmi was then sitting at the round table in their Garden while holding a lemonade and small umbrella on top. Her brows creased.
“Uncle might be busy today, love. It was morning, he was probably working right now,” she answered and sipped on her juice.
“Denver! Come back here we will still play!” Damiar Arizona laughed as he waved his goggles in the air. Dalmi smiled at his father and held on to Denver’s arm.
“We will call Uncle Johannes later, alright?”
Denver pouted and shook his head. “But I want to talk to him! I keep on spending time with Lolo but I think he is tired!”
The pain came across Dalmi’s face when she saw how the child looked sad and bored. In Chicago, they wo
BBAP CHAPTER 105Jack must’ve expected that something was going on between me and Johannes.This was the first thing that Dalmi thought of the moment she heard Jack’s words, but she only glanced at him with her blank expression. At the back of her mind, she was thinking whether she would disagree or not because the man would always find ways as to how he would make it work for him.Even if she says that there was nothing between them, he would still push. But if she wouldn’t, the man would believe a lie.“We are just friends,” she uttered and shifted back her glance at the kids, but the man walked and stopped in front of her.“Friends? But why does your child address him as his Papa?” he furrowed his brows. “You think I wouldn’t notice because I am not with you in Chicago?”“And Brit often tells me that Johanne’s father is a great man. She said he always tells her storie
BBAP CHAPTER 106Of all the places he could go to, Carden Thompson never expected that he would see his ex-wife in this gym. Even a small percentage, even the slightest chance, he had never thought that they would cross paths but the woman in her tight leggings and white racerback in front of him proved him wrong.Dalmi Arizona, with a bright smile on her face and a pink tumbler on her hand, walked inside the mirrored room and stopped right beside Jack Amores.“Carden! You are also here!” Jack finally greeted back. If only Dalmi wasn’t here right now, he would have focussed on talking to Jack like they were close but now that she was here, he could no longer take his eyes off her.The man stared at Dalmi with his surprise
BBAP CHAPTER 107When the woman wore her earphones, Carden Thompson already knew that he stood no chance of talking to her. He wanted to talk and be friends with her again so he could once again build their relationship but it was already obvious that she didn’t want anything but be alone so instead of insisting, he just went down and focused on lifting weights with Jack. They talked about him soon to open a business, and although he wasn’t asking for a business partner, the man offered him help.“Are you sure? You’ve done lots of things to me already, I am not paid yet,” he said and gout his dumble down to stare at him. It was just confusing that the man kept on helping him when he was one of those people who watched him fall into the pit. If anyone would be frightened to be one of his investors, it sh
BBAP CHAPTER 108“I’m sorry, but I think I can’t let you go inside,” she said in an embarrassed voice and stopped him from walking. The man immediately froze in his position, his ears turned red when he realized he shouldn’t have done such a thing.“Oh! My bad…” Carden scratched the tip of his nose and smiled shyly.While the man was standing in front of her, Dalmi couldn’t glimpse at her back, in fear that the man might notice that she was trying to hide something in their house.Just the thought that the man might meet Denver when she wasn’t ready, it was making her want to run. She just wished that before Denver could see her from the terrace, the man would driv
BBAP CHAPTER 109For the nth time, Carden Thompson squinted his eyes on the screen, expecting a text message from Dalmi. Yesterday, he already knew that the woman wouldn’t give her number but he was shocked to see that she reached for his phone. He also knew it would be weird if he texted as early as this, but he just doesn’t want every day to pass without making any progress.He wanted her back.Maybe he had caused too much pain and trouble towards her, but he was determined to try. If the woman would say that she no longer wants to be involved in his life, only then he would stop. But right now, he just doesn't think it was right to halt everything while Dalmi was here in the country.Who knows if the woman still has
BBAP CHAPTER 110“Will your mother cook all of this?” Carden asked as he held on to the tong and pinched the meat.They have been roaming around the place for minutes, and now they are in the meat section, choosing some minced meat to put into Denver’s favorite dish. Within those minutes, no matter how Carden tried to conceal his smile with a straight face, his lips would always find their way to stretch its ends like they were so eager to show Dalmi how happy he was now that they were together.When he came into this place, he had chanted in his mind the things he would say to her, how he would insist to be with her while shopping, and how he would try to act normal. But now, every word that comes from his mouth seemed endless, like he had been longing to talk
BBAP CHAPTER 111Dalmi Arizona sighed when she heard Carden’s car door close as he came out. He had this wide smirk on his face as he walked towards her. He inserted his hands inside his pocket and held them at the top of her car when he stopped in front of her.“I can help your helpers to lessen the work,” he said and picked up one of the bags when she snatched it away from him and glared.“The helpers can do it by themselves, why don’t you go home and help your brother instead?” she fumed. While Dalmi finds the man annoying, Carden couldn't help himself but widen his smirk when he saw her face.Her face was crimson, her brows furrowed as though they would unite the moment she moved it again, and her nostrils and ears looked like they would spit out smoke the moment he chuckled.“What? Do you find this funny?” she rolled her eyes in irritation.Dalmi thought the man would stop going after her
BBAP CHAPTER 112Dalmi furrowed her brows as she stood in front of La Elinad. She was wearing blue tight jeans, mustard fitted top, and white shoes as her eyes squinted back to the screen of her phone.It was still eight in the morning, but she was forced to go here. She was still sleeping soundly earlier when she received a call from Carden Thompson, telling her she should be ready by seven and needed to go in front of La Elinad, the place where Carden and Casimir live right now.Carden Thompson:Cas will go there to pick you up, sorry, I’ve been preparing for something.For the nth time, she groaned again. How come he forced her to go
