Mummy! Where is Daddy?~

THREE YEARS LATER

Cassandra

"Madam?" My secretary calls and I look up from my desk, twirling my chair around.

"Yes?"

"They Benito has been making moves and although we sent some silk and jewels to the Genovese last week, they sent another this week." She said and I sigh.

"It doesn't matter if they send theirs every minute, they fact that we're above them is everything we need. When's our next shipping?" I ask, glancing through my iPad.

"A week from now." She says, staring at the clock.

"Shit! It's almost time to get the kids from school." She says and I sigh again.

Just as I open my mouth to talk, my phone rings and I pick the call.

"Mummy!" Three Little voices greets me.

"How are my darlings?" I asks.

"We're fine. They driver is here but there's no Aunty May inside." The Alessio, the eldest of the three says.

"Yes, cause there's an Aunty May here with me." I glance at my secretary who chuckles and takes a seat.

"Get into the car and come see your Aunty May, okay?" I say.

"Sì." They all say in unison. (yes)

"God! These children will definitely not kill me." I mumble and May giggle.

I roll my eyes and glance at the three little minions on my wallpaper. My three little bunch of joy.

When I left New York to Italy, I never expected my life to go the way it did. But I'm thankful to God for all the help he gave me.

Leaving New York is the best decision I have ever made in my life and I'm grateful I did.

I'm now the CEO of Jewels, Beads and Fashion corporation. We deal on different kinds of jewels, we also make bead adornments, any kind. Pre-ordered or not. We also deal on fashion.

Another call draws me out of my thoughts and I smile, picking up the call.

"Hey sweetheart." I smirk.

"This is an international call, Cassie. Don't sweetheart me, you know how expensive that shit is. Why have you not been calling me?!" Bianca, my best friend yells at me through the phone.

"I'm sorry, Mom. But If I recall clearly. We just spoke yesterday." I snort.

"Well, that was yesterday. That was like fifteen hours ago." She whines.

"Where are my three little puties?" She asks.

"They should be here very-"

"Mummy! Aunty May!" The three busted into my office before I could finish talking.

"Ethan? Bianca? Alessio?"

"Aunty Bianca!" They screamed in unison and rushed to the phone.

"How are you three? Are you just coming back from school?" She asks and they answered.

"I can speak Italy now, Aunty Bianca." My only daughter, the last among the triplets says.

My kids can speak Italy fluently. I made them learn cause it's their language, from their look and everything, you can definitely tell that their bonafide Italians and their accent? God help me! I really was shagged by an Italian that night!

I giggle at the thought.

"Sei andato bene in classe?" I ask and they all nodded. Yes, I can speak Italian as well but not as good as my children. (Did you do well in class?)

"Sì, mamma." They all nod and I smile not before my baby talks. (Yes, mummy)

"Anche se Alessio continua a flirtare con la nuova ragazza in classe." Ethan says, smiling sheepishly at his brother who glares at him. ( Although Alessio keeps flirting with the new kid in class)

"Alessio?" I call with my eyes wide open.

"And Ethan how do you even know what flirting is?" I rub my forehead and Bianca laughs.

I've even forgot we were on an phone call.

"Don't give the kids a hard time, Cassie. I'll call you all later, okay?" She says and they all yell love kisses to the phone.

"Mummy is it true that we're going to New York this Saturday?" Alessio asks.

"Uhm, I'll be going to New York. Not all of us." I say, chuckling.

"But didn't you say that Daddy is in New York and one day we'll all go and visit him there?" Ethan questions with a frown.

"Uhm." I try to look for a lie to cover up my mishap but find none.

Alessio gives me a pointed look as if waiting for an answer. My children can act real mature and leave you acting like a fool.

"Okay, we'll all go to New York." I reply and they all throw their hands in the sky.

"But I'll go for my business meeting with my clients and you'll go stay with your Aunty Bianca. I do not want you talking about your Daddy. Remember I said that, Daddy has been busy and I can't reach him because of that. He's going to come find us all later, yes?" I cock a brow and they all nod, excited that they will travel.

May gives me a look. Each time I keep lying to them about their father and they always ask. They keep asking about their father and I don't even know what to say to them. I don't even know the man except his blue eyes which they two boys inherited but Bianca got my eyes.

"We have to pack a lot of bag, Sì mamma?" Bianca says, climbing onto my leg.

"Sì." I smile at her and carry her onto my lap while the other two busied themselves with their iPad.

"Mama, when we go there." Bianca whispers into my ears. "I will help you find Papa so you won't be hurting again." She says.

I don't even know when a tear leaves my eyes and I nod at her, not saying a word.

She wipes my tears away and kisses my cheek, before wrapping her small hands around me.

I chuckle into her neck and hold her as well.

But I should have never been surprised when she actually finds her papa like she had promised me and brought him to me.
