"Thank you, for trusting me," Anthony spoke lowly, sitting on the sofa in the other room. Ast. Carson was standing in front of the room and Igor too. Alexander wasn't very sure to let her be alone with his grandfather. However, Anthony did not seem to mind that and concentrated on talking to Chloe."I have heard what happened..." He sighed. "Never thought a mother could do this to her child." He shook his head. "Alice really overdid it. But I am glad both my Alex and Leo have you." Chloe heard his words and pursed her lips. She wasn't really sure whether to let him know the truth and finally, she decided to say it. "Alice was not Leo's biological mother." She uttered and Anthony frowned. "What?" Chloe nodded her head. "Yes. Four years ago, she hid him from his real mother and in exchange handed her a dead child. For years, she thought her child was born dead and kept blaming herself. Whereas that filthy woman has taken away her son for her own selfish motive... But at least, he gr
A few days later, "Did you tell her yet, Alexander?" Riley asked on the face time and Alex shook his head with a sigh. "I don't know how to do that, Riely. She... She is so happy right now and I don't know how to say this to her." Alex felt stressed and scared. Chloe was living happily. If he told her the complications of her pregnancy, she would be broken. "Alexander, I know this is very much unusual for both of you. But as you know, the chances are fifty per cent. If any complication starts taking over, she will be scared, and knowing you knew it from before and did not tell her, she would be broken. She should be prepared for all the situations that could cross your path. Moreover, as a mother, she deserves to know. Remember one thing, a mother needs to know every detail of her situation, so she can be mentally prepared because she is the one going to give birth and your responsibility is to be her moral support." Alex nodded his head. "You are right, I will tell her soon." R
After Leonor was asleep, kissing his forehead, Chloe sighed. "I am sorry, my baby. I couldn't save you in the beginning. But, I promise you, your mama will always protect you no matter what." Kissing him again, she stood up and walked out to the huge veranda. Even though he liked her, the pain of being unable to tell him the truth hurts like hell. But to protect his little mind, she has no other choice. As she was drowned in her thoughts, Chloe did not notice her husband behind her. Alexander just returned to the room and found his son asleep while his wife was engrossed in her own thoughts. He hugged her from behind. Yet, she did not flinch. Chloe got used to his sudden touches and she now could tell his presence around her. She leaned on his chest and he kissed her head. "Did you tell him the truth?" He asked and Chloe shook her head. "I could not. He does not want his mother but Mama. Maybe, we could never let him know the truth, Alex, but..." She turned to him. "But, the lov
Chloe sucked in a deep breath, carefully watching the beautiful hairpin. It was a bow styled hairpin with a ruby in the middle and the whole body was covered in specially cut diamonds. The more she sees it, the more feels blessed as well as nervous that she was trusted with this by someone who cared a lot about Alexander. They never met and there was no chance for that, yet Chloe felt like she was so connected with the person just through the pin. Keeping it back in the box gently, she picked up the white note. Chloe still did not see it. She wanted to read it taking her time and understanding the feeling of words that were written. With another deep breath, she unfolded the note and her first thought was, that it was written so beautifully. The handwriting was so danm good! Eventually, she started reading the note... 'Hello love, When you are reading this I am already gone from this world. But, whoever you are, I am certain of your gorgeous personality that holds you with my A
"Oh, my my!" Jessica squealed and immediately strode to her daughter, pulling her into a hug. "Oh, my love, I am so happy for you!" "Yeah, me too!" Melissa hugged her next and turned to Alex. "Congratulations to you too!" His facial structure was soft and he nodded gratefully. He still doesn't feel comfortable showing his emotions so openly in front of others. "Congratulations, Master and young mistress. This news definitely added much more happiness in the palace..." Stuard Daniel wished and others nodded along, Smiling brightly. They were happy too. A very good news, after such a long time! Why wouldn't they be!? They all came back to the living hall and everyone congratulated them one after one, excluding one person. He was almost hiding himself in his father's arms. The moment he heard the news of Chloe's pregnancy, little Leonor suddenly lost all hope in his life. His mama is pregnant. That means another baby is coming into this world. Her own child. Then what about him? W
Alex went behind his son. Getting inside the room, he found him removing his shoes like an obedient child. Standing away he watched him. Leonor climbed on his bed. He did not choose to go to his parent's room anymore and came to his. Slowly, he pulled the pillow in the middle and laid down. Did to look back or wait for anyone, just laid down on his side, he closed his eyes. Alexander sighed inwardly and walked to his bed. He did not disturb Leo but sat at the edge of the bed behind him. "I know you are sad." He spoke, but Leo did not move. "But, your mother was not guilty in the situation. Right after your birth, you were taken away by the bad people. They told her, you did not make it, and gave her a dead child. So, she believed you died." Leo did not react at all, but he listened to his father's words. "When she first stepped inside the castle, I was desperate to chase her out and she was almost, but it was you, stopping her. You brought her back to the palace and at that tim
"And now you are occupying all of her..." Amid the amazing time of mother and son, a grumpy male tone was heard and caught their attention. Both heads turned and as expected Alexander Rossi was standing there. He slept with his son all night, sacrificing his craving to be with his wife. When he woke up in the morning, that little rascal had vanished from the bed! Coming out of the room, he found Igor just before their bedroom and he followed... The scene of their intimate time was equally pleasing to him and he even heard their little conversation. However, he also needed to ask for his share! This one is taking all of her. He does not want to imagine what the other one would do!? She would definitely forget him in the process! With the frown of a cold duke, Alexander walked inside in his robe with his kingly demeanour. "I hereby, want my wife back." He announced, standing in front of the bed. Both Leonor and Chloe watched the grumpy adult who was a five year old in his thirties
Both Alex and Jessica looked at each other. They did not expect her to find them and listen to their conversation. Their silence set her idea firm that there was something they were hiding from her. She stepped forward to them carefully with a scared heart and she did not bother to hide it anyway. "Guys?" Her eyes traveled to both and then landed on her husband. "What I can't handle, Alex? What are you guys hiding from me?" Chloe asked again. "You are scaring me now, please do tell me..." She tried to be firm but the plea in her tone gave away her fear. Alexander walked close to her and held her hands. She shook her head. "Tell me, Alex. What are you hiding from me?" She was hurt by the way he was hiding things from her. Alex shook his head, holding her tightly. "I wasn't hiding anything. It's just me... I don't know how to break this to you, dark eyes. You are so happy after such a long time and I don't want to ruin this for you." Chloe looked up at him. Her eyes turned teary.
