Falling For the Masked Lady. Chapter 41
June got down from the car, She picked up the important file that Michael forgot at home and then she turned to John in a hurry."Do you know the way to his office?" He asked and June nodded in refusal. "I don't actually but I will just ask around. It shouldn't be too difficult to find since he owns the company" She said "I will park the car in a better place then," John told her and she nodded. "I will be back soon," She said and closed the door. John droved away and June left for the company. She stood in front of the tall building and wondered if she did the right thing by coming to Michael's office without informing him about it but the deed was already done. She was already there and there was no turning back now. She rushed into the lobby and the number of people moving around almost made her nauseous. They were so many people talking and walking and just when she was thinking that the building was big, the interior was even much bigger than outside the building itself. Sh

Michael did the dishes that Friday afternoon while June cleared the sink and cleaned the kitchen, She cleared the plates from the dining table after they had lunch that afternoon when Michael suddenly offered to help her with the chores. She was bothered but accepted his help since she had something to tell him. Angel was watching television in the living room. "June""Michael," They said at the same time. June turned to look at Michael who was also staring at her and then she smiled at him."What did you want to say to me?" Michael asked "I have been meaning to ask you something. My younger sister challenged me days ago saying I love your daughter more than I love her because I haven't been able to spend time with her since I got this job" June started"I told you to take the day off when you want to June," He said."I know, it's not about taking the day off. I want to take Angel and Layla out with me somewhere. I want them to get to know each other" June said "Then that's not a p

June followed Michael to get cotton candies for the girls, Layla was sitting down with Angel in the car, and they were waiting for them to come back with the candies. "Don't you think they hit it off quickly and became friends?" Michael said and June nodded."My sister surprised me, she usually doesn't listen to talks about princesses, I only said it to make her shut up but it turns out I don't know some things about her after all," June said "What can I get you?" The man behind the cotton candy stall asked with a smile. "I don't know what flavor Angel would like but for sure she can eat the same thing Layla wants," June said to Michael and he nodded in agreement"We will take two of the strawberry flavored and a big bowl of popcorn," Michael said "What do we need the popcorn for?" June asked in confusion."You don't expect us to chew on nothing all day right, we have to eat too June," Michael said and she nodded. They took their orders and paid for them. June took the cotton can

"Come on baby, let's get you to bed," Michael said as he lifted Angel out of the car and into the house. "Can I play with Layla tomorrow?" Angel asked in her sleep and Michael laughed and began to climb the stairs up to her room."Yes you can honey but only after you get some sleep," Michael said. He kicked the bedroom door open with his leg since his hands were occupied because he was carrying Angel. She tightened her hands around his neck as he walked into her room."I made a new friend" She moaned and Michael nodded. He dropped her on the bed and then he took off her shoes before tucking her into bed. "June is an Angel" She muttered and Michael couldn't agree less. June was an Angel indeed. Since she had come into their lives, things have been so much easy for him and Angel."I like her very much daddy, you like her too don't you?" Angel asked as she opened her eyes. "That's right baby, daddy likes June too," Michael said with a smile. Angel smiled back at him before she closed

"Hi John, good morning" June greeted John, the driver who usually drove Angel to school."Good morning June, you are quite early today," He said and she nodded. "I told Michael I would come in early today, we have so much to do," June said"Mr. Stahom hasn't left for work yet so you will see him," John said and June nodded before she went into the house.The house was as silent as a graveyard when she got to the living room. She dropped her bag on the sofa before going upstairs to look for Michael because Angel must have gone to school already. She wanted to thank him for yesterday and also use the chance to tell him that her mother wanted to meet him to thank him personally. "Daddy please" June stopped in her tracks when she heard Angel's voice, What was she still doing at home when she was supposed to be at school? She didn't bother to knock on the door before she got into the house. "Oh June you are here, Michael said as soon as he saw her. She smiled at him and nodded. "June!

"You should get out of your clothes before you have lunch" June said to Angel who was sitting at the dining table, devouring a plate of scrambled eggs."You should also try to wash up before they get here," Michael said to June and she smiled."Why do you like countering me when you should be taking my side? and who are the people coming anyway?" She asked as she took the apron she was wearing off her neck before laying it on the chair slowly. "The stylists," Michael said not looking away from her. "What do you mean by the stylists, why are stylists coming over?" June asked Michael in confusion"They are coming over to make you and my daughter look beautiful for the dinner tonight," Michael said Dinner?. What the hell was he saying, was there a dinner planned that she didn't know about? "Yay we are going to dress up like princesses" Angel yelled in excitement and June shushed her up so she continued eating. "What dinner Michael?" June asked him "Melissa and Frank's dinner, they

"Thank you," Michael said, the smile on his face widened and June couldn't move an inch or say a word. "Daddy" Angel's voice disrupted her thoughts and then she and Michael looked at her, Angel got up from the chair before she ran to Michael and hugged him while she was crying."I'm sorry daddy, sorry June. it's all my fault" She cried and then Michael knelt before her and hugged her back. "You didn't do anything honey, it's not your fault," He said. June stared at them. Angel wouldn't stop crying because she thinks she messed everything up. She must think so because of what happened with the two women. June knew that Angel always got scared whenever people raised their voices in front of her. So this must have triggered her fear. If only she remembered early, she would have dealt with the issue in a more refined way. "I will take care of this" June finally said to Michael. He nodded and then he stepped aside for June, leaving Angel on the floor. June picked Angel up from the flo

Michael held June's hand as they got into the house, Melissa closed the door after them and quickly hurried inside to stand beside Frank. Angel was already sitting on the chair as she focused on the television before her. "Michael you finally made it," Frank said and stepped forward engulfing Michael in a bro hug. "Of course, I couldn't disappoint, not when we have been planning this for a while now," He said with a smile."You couldn't disappoint because that day would be your funeral. I cooked all sorts of food and you know how much I hate wasting my food" Melissa said "She cooks once in a while so you better appreciate this, it's a once in a lifetime opportunity Michael" Frank joked and they all laughed. "June don't stand there looking like a stranger, I waited for two weeks for this day to come, we will have so much fun together," Melissa said and June smiled before the both of them hugged. "You should have let me bring a side dish for them" June nudged Michael in the waist w

Michael was with Frank when he got the call from his brothers, Frank tried to calm him down and tell him that he can figure a way out but Michael wasn't ready to listen to him. Immediately Michael called his lawyer. "Mr Stahom, I have prepared the papers for the lawsuit, I will be ready when you are ready" He said "That's not the issue, I need you to draft up all the documents of the entire company in thirty minutes and then send it to me, I will sign it" Michael said "What do you mean by that Mr Stahom, what do you need the entire papers of the company for?" The lawyer asked "I don't have the time to answer your questions so please just do as I say and let me have it. I will be with you in an hour to sign them" Michael said and hung up on him. "Michael, you can still think this through, this is your company we are talking about here, something that you spent all your years trying to build Michael, you can't give it all up in an hour. calm down Michael, we can still figure somet

The girls got ready for school the next day and Michael got down the stairs, they didn't know that he was around the day before. "Daddy" Angel yelled and she got down and ran to hug him, Michael hugged her back "Darling, how are you doing?" Michael asked "I'm fine daddy, when did you come home?" Angel asked"I arrived last night baby and you were sleeping then," Michael said and she nodded. "Mr. Stahom, how was your trip?" Layla asked "It was fine Layla, I did what I wanted to do thanks for asking. I hope you girls didn't disturb June too much while I was away?" Michael asked "Not at all, I made Angel behave too," Layla said and Michael grinned. "Daddy we baked, we watched movies, had ice creams, and slept with June in your bedroom every night, I love it but I just missed you so much daddy," Angel said "I know baby and I missed you so much, that's why I came back to see you. but you have to go to school now so I will see you when you get back" Michael said and she nodded"Okay,

Michael got into his hotel room after leaving the meeting and he laid down on his bed feeling extra tired from the days work, he spent the whole day talking to so many men because of the new business. He hadn't told anyone that he was opening up another branch, he didn't even tell June yet because he wanted it to be a surprise. But when he got home, since this trip was successful and the business would soon be set up, he would bring it up and tell her all about it. He had spoken to Angel because June said she missed him and he missed her a lot too, after tonight, he planned on taking the first flight home to surprise them. He was looking forward to their reactions when he would get home. He removed his next tie and stared at the ceiling when his phone began to ring again. It was June, he thought as he stared at the screen, he smiled to himself and picked up the phone ready to tease her. "I thought you didn't miss me, then why are you calling me June?" Michael asked with a smirk "Mi

June was in the kitchen making dinner while her sister and Angel are playing in the living room. She put the food in the oven when Angel ran into the kitchen and then walked her to her with a frown. "June" She called in a silent voice and it was at that moment that June knew that the little girl was feeling down. "What's wrong Angel, aren't you playing with Layla anymore? Or are you hungry because I'm making dessert right now and dinner is almost done" June said and she nodded in refusal? "Where is daddy June, when is he going to come back?" Angel asked with a frown. June dropped the spoon she was holding and then took off the apron around her waist and hugged Angel. "Do you miss your daddy?" June asked and Angel nodded her head in agreement. "I'm sorry honey, it's been days since you saw him. Michael must also miss you, he was in a meeting when I called him earlier this morning" June said "Can I call daddy now, I want to talk to him June, I miss him?" Angel said and June smiled

Michael bent down, his lips against her cheek, brushing it lightly, and still, that light touch sent shivers through her nerves, shivers that made her whole body tremble. He brushed his mouth against the hollow of her temple and then his lips were on hers again. June stood on her toes and reached up as she pulled him down to her, He kissed her gently, carefully, but it wasn’t the gentleness she wanted, not now, not after all this time, and she knotted her fists in his shirt, pulling him harder against her body. He groaned softly, low in his throat, and then his arms circled her waist, gathering her against him, still kissing. His lips tasted like honey. They stopped to catch their breath.He smashed his lips on hers again. she tasted so sweet and he could smell her perfume from how close they were. Slowly, he lifted her from the ground and carried her to the counter so she would sit before he spread her legs open. "Wait in the kitchen?" she asked with her eyes open wide. "I don't

Michael had finally calmed down from his paranoia so the girls are allowed back to school after two weeks, He found out about a last-minute trip to New Orleans so he was going to leave with his secretary. He couldn't ask June to go with him because he knew that she had to watch the kids. "I would have asked you to go with me but I know you wouldn't agree to go with me because of the kids," Michael said as he tossed his clothes on the bed. "I asked you to fold them" June complained and then folded them for him before she placed them into his box neatly. "I have you to do it for me," He said and she rolled her eyes at him. "I know, I want to follow you too, get time to ourselves, time away from the girls but I can't leave them at the same time because of how things are now, the cops haven't caught the other men who tried to kidnap Layla or the actual person who gave the orders so we have to be careful," June said and he nodded. "I know that baby, and if it weren't for the fact that

That evening, Michael watched as June baked a cake with her sister and Angel in the kitchen. "Stop standing there, at least make yourself useful even if you can't bake Michael," June said and he frowned. "I'm fine with just watching you bake for the kids from this place June so ignore me and keep doing what you are doing," Michael said "I'm done, I just have to put the slices in a plate for the kids and then I will be with you," June said and Michael nodded. When Angel saw that June had finished baking, Layla was washing the pans in the sink while June cut the cake into big slices, Angel rushed over to where her dad was standing and then beckoned for him to bend down."You want to tell daddy something?" Michael asked and she nodded. He bent down and then she grabbed his hair "Daddy, I just want to tell you that June is a great mummy to me" Angel whispered in his ear and Michael beamed with joy. He was overwhelmed with so many emotions at that moment and was glad that Angel thinks

For the next two days, Michael refused to let the kids go into the compound to play because he was scared that anything would happen to them. They went to work with the bodyguards, some guarded the house and the kids followed two other with Shawn as the driver since he was someone Michael trusted them with. He was worried that anyone might try to kidnap someone again, it might not be Layla this time but it might be Angel or even June and he couldn't take any risks, they were all important to him and they each had the roles to play in his life.Michael didn't go to work today, he wanted to work from home because he had some calls to answer and he wanted to do it at his study, the kids were currently back from school and were eating while June was upstairs in the bedroom doing her leftover work from the office. "I can't find them, I thought I asked you to name the folder under Frank's name or didn't I?" Michael asked his secretary on call"I must have misplaced it with Mr. Collins's f

Michael's phone began to ring again and they ignored the call thinking it was the head of the IRS department that might be calling. But June couldn't focus on any other thing the way the phone was ringing so she picked up the call for Michael. "Good afternoon, Mr. Stahom isn't in a position to receive a call now, you can leave me a message to give to him or call him again in the next one hour," June said politely "I'm sorry ma'am but it's important, can you tell him that the chief of police would like to speak to him, concerning the case with the attempted kidnap from yesterday?" The man said and as June heard him mention attempted kidnap, her heart began to race and immediately she understood that it had to do with Layla. "Hello, are you still there ma'am?" The man asked disturbing her thoughts and she remembered she was on a call before. "I will tell him, please hold on," June said and then she placed the call on hold before turning to Michael."Michael" June called and he looke
