The Husband

“Mommy, I’ve got you a husband!” a green-eyed beauty declared in front of her mother.

“A husband!” As hilarious as it was, Hazel couldn’t bring herself to laugh at it because this wasn’t the first time her daughter was trying to play matchmaker for her.

She has been doing this since she turned three and became more aware of what a family should look like. At first she’d often call random men her Dad since her Mom told her her daddy went missing but when she turned five, the smarty pants decided she had to find her Mom a husband and herself a daddy.

“Ivy-Lynn! Go back and sit with Mabel at the counter. I will clear this table and join you.”

Ivy frowned and lifted his eyebrows, “It’s for real this time!” With excitement, she held up a piece of paper and said, “See, we even drew up a contract!”

Hazel took the paper from her and briefly went through it while shaking her head in disbelief. Whoever she had talked to was really indulging her with the reassuring words signed on the paper.

“Ivy, you can’t go around forcing people to write you a note! I am not in need of a husband– especially not from you." She complained.

“But, Mommy, he’s totally your type.” She added, winking slyly, “And he seems loaded too.”

“Ivy!” Hazel let out a shocked gasp. “Get back to the counter and get your books!” She warned as she continued to clear the table, dusting it up with a towel, She mumbled, “You don’t want to end up like me.”

But Ivy wasn't ready to listen to her as she turned around and walked into the VIP lounge, which was opposite the regular lounge where Hazel was clearing up.

“Young lady, get back here–” she called out before Ivy vanished behind the glass doors that divided their spaces.

‘I must have raised her wrong.’ She sighed, gently massaging her temple as she dropped the towel on the table and followed her.

As she gently pushed the door open, she spotted Ivy talking to a man in a gray suit. With his back to the door, Hazel could only catch a glimpse of his shiny brown hair and his bulky body, which completely encased the chair he was seated in.

As she walked closer, she began to hear their conversations.

“Hey, where is my wife? I thought you were going to get her.” The man asked, his voice gentle and warm. Hazel could tell right away that he was good with kids.

"I truly intended to bring her, but I believe that after too many rounds of this game, she has lost faith in me. You have to come with me, that way she won’t have any doubts.” Ivy prodded and pulled his arm gently, giving the young man a cutesy face he could not help but smile at.

Hazel shook her head in disbelief as she finally walked up to them and pulled Ivy apart. “I’m sorry she interfered. She’s always like that with handsome men.” She complimented while offering an apology, her head cocked slightly in a bow.

“There is no need to apologize for such a cutey.” He said, playfully pulling her cheek while getting on his feet.

Hazel raised her head to finally get a glimpse of the man she complimented. As they locked eyes, what she saw took her aback.

Her heart skipped a few beats as the familiar face and scent quickly brought her back to that night several years ago like a tidal wave.

In that split second, a whirlwind of emotions and memories from her past came rushing back with an overwhelming force.

The first image that appeared in her mind was the day her father had discovered she was pregnant. The look of disappointment and anger on his face as he yelled at her and eventually kicked her out of their home echoed in her mind like it had just happened yesterday.

Then, the memories of her high school days came flooding back. The whispers and stares from her classmates when her belly started to show, the cruel words and teasing that made her feel like an outcast. The loneliness and isolation she felt as she navigated the halls of her school, carrying a secret burden that she was too young to understand fully.

As she continued to lock eyes with the stranger, her mind raced to the countless nights she had spent alone, cradling her growing belly, wondering how she would be able to take care of a baby when she was just a child herself.

A vivid collection of the night she brought her child to the world resurfaced.

She remembered the feeling of overwhelming pain and exhaustion as she braced herself for the arrival of her child. The walls of the small room closing in on her, the sounds of her own breathing echoing in her ears as she gritted her teeth through each contraction. The fear and uncertainty of not having anyone by her side to hold her hand and reassure her that everything would be okay.

She could almost feel the weight of her baby pressing against her, the sensation of her tiny body emerging into the world filling her with a mix of awe and overwhelming love.

The cries of her newborn pierced through the room, a sound that simultaneously brought her to tears and filled her with a sense of unparalleled joy and relief.

The fear and uncertainty that had gripped her in those moments came back in full force, making her feel small and vulnerable once again.

Her education ended as soon as she decided to keep the baby so there was no other way for her to secure a better job.

In the end, Hazel Estelle Ricci Sinclair, the first daughter of Ruso Ricci Sinclair, the most affluent and revered International Crime family in Evercrest City was now waiting tables at a hotel lounge a few kilometers away from home in Crestmont City.

“I knew you'd like him.” Ivy seeing the duo lost in each other's eyes exclaimed with excitement.

Hot tears quickly filled her eyes hearing her daughter's voice. She thought her daughter had been through a lot born to a single mom whose only living parent abandoned as soon as she became a stain to the family name.

“Ivy, let's leave from here!” She said, dragging Ivy who wasn't ready to leave.

“Mom, we can't leave Daddy behind!” Ivy cried loudly, forcing her mom to stop in shock right before opening the glass door.

Hazel raised her eyes and blinked back her tears. She cleared her throat before kneeling to Ivy’s height.

“Ivy, he isn't your Daddy. I’m sure you're smarter than that.” Hazel said, trying to brainwash Ivy.

Ivy looked through the glass at the man who was still standing frozen in the same spot and the same position they had left him then she turned her gaze back to her mother, “But he has green eyes– just like mine. You don't have green eyes.” She pointed out.

Hazel’s temper flared but she couldn't express just how she was feeling towards her child after all, it wasn't her fault.

“Love, green is a very common eye color. If you go by that, every man with green eyes will be your Daddy.” She tried to explain, “And by the way, we both have caramel hair color which he clearly doesn't. Do you believe me now?” She asked, hoping her trick worked.

Ivy went silent for several seconds, moving her gaze from the young man to her mom back and forth.

“You’re right about everyone with green eyes becoming my Dad but– Green is one of the rarest eye colors. So you won't see many people with it.” Ivy confronted her mom.

Even though she was angry, she felt relief thinking Ivy had come to terms with her.

“It doesn't matter. At least you know he isn't your real Dad just because he’s got green eyes.” Hazel said, getting back to her feet.

She gently held Ivy’s hand and attempted to walk away one more time but didn't expect Ivy to pull from her grip and stand firm to her point.

“What does it matter if he isn't my real Dad? At least, he is the only one willing to marry a single mom.” She blurted, her words stinging Hazel's heart.

She Has My Eyes
Cade Westham, was sitting at the private lounge of Serene Oasis hotel on a phone call with his brother. “I know how much you're not interested in the family business but I’m sure you can handle it just until this scandal evaporates. Gabriel Stone will assist you every step of the way. Plus, you have me to come to.” His brother reassured him over the phone. Two weeks prior, Cade Westham had finally triumphed in the lengthy three-month legal battle about the medical mishap that happened when he was operating on a well-known patient, ultimately resulting in her demise. Shaken by the affair, he needed a place to escape from all the bad press in the media, and he ended up driving many miles south to Evercrest City, South Eldoria because the family corporation had recently opened a new branch there. “But the CEO position? I think it's too…” “Don't whine about it. Show everyone you are a Westham.” His brother suggested. “I know you can pull this…” A green-eyed beauty unexpectedly appear

Premium Suite
Hazel paced frantically around the staff room, biting her nails nervously while Ivy slept on the couch behind her after a long cry for Daddy. ‘Why now? What does he want by showing up now?’ She pondered, getting angrier by the second. Seeing how finely dressed he was, it was obvious his life had been all rose but hers had only been filled with thorns. ‘Why did I have to suffer alone?’ She wondered. “Because I initiated the affair?” She thought, this time more loudly as she halted and quickly checked on her daughter hoping not to wake her up. Even though she was fast asleep, she still had her ‘Contract’ within her grip. Hazel wiped the tears from her eyes as she sat down on the floor beside the couch Ivy was lying on. She tucked behind her ear strands of her hair that were covering her face as she gently removed the contract from her hand which made the little one toss around. She decided to leave her for a while to be sure she was deep into her sleep before touching her again to

Be My Man
Hazel paused, her fingers millimeters from the pen beneath the bed, her heart leaping in her chest. She was startled by the abrupt sound and felt a shiver of fear run down her spine. She let out a cry and staggered backward, her eyes wide with shock as she fell onto the bed in a whirl of fabric and limbs. The unexpectedness of the situation sent her head reeling and her pulse racing. "You scared the living hell out of me, f*ck!" Breathing out gently, she looked up at the man who was standing inches in front of her. Her eyes widened in shock seeing the man before her. “Y–you’re Cade f*cking Westham?” She asked, pointing at Cade who had just gotten out of the restroom with just a towel around his waist. Cade was equally awestruck. Seeing her once was enough to mess with his head, but twice a day– and in this scenario? There was no way he was going to get her off his mind for a long time. All they shared the night they met was kisses, bodies, and a bed. Nothing more– not even thei

The Kiss
Gabriel halted, keeping quiet for a while. He wasn’t startled by Cade’s out-of-the-blue question, he was just not sure what to say at the moment.“I know my brother is asking me to trust you so much because he wants you to keep an eye on me and report back to him.” Cade went on, a little more blunt this time. Gabriel turned to face him, asking, “Are you saying not to do my job now?” “You can tell him about everything but this. He can’t know of any woman in my life. He mustn't.” Cade said, firmly. “That’s why I need you to quit being his man and become mine.” He requested. “I can’t work with someone I can’t trust with my secrets.Gabriel was quiet for a while before he eventually replied, “Can I get back to you on that?” “It’s hard to make an honest decision when I haven’t contacted my previous employer.” He added. Cade sighed heavily, “I hope you make the right decision on time.” He concluded before shutting the door behind him. He sat on the couch and relaxed his back. As soon as

Her Daddy!
Cade had no idea what was going on, but he knew what he wanted. To get a full taste of those lips. Without thinking much of it, he slipped his hand behind her back, unexpectedly pulling her to himself, their bodies pressing tightly against each other. With her hand still resting on his cheek, he leaned in and pressed his lips against her, his breath filled with the sweet aroma of the red wine he had drank. Their lips met in a gentle, sensual dance that sent shivers down Hazel’s spine. As they melted into each other, Cade’s hands caressed her waist, sending a wave of warmth through her body. Their kiss deepened, a silent symphony of desire and longing. Hazel’s fingers tangled in Cade’s hair, pulling him closer as they both lost themselves in the moment. The taste of red wine lingered on their tongues, adding an intoxicating sweetness to their embrace. As they broke apart, Cade’s eyes met Hazel’s, filled with a mix of passion and tenderness. Hazel was in awe, but she couldn’t deny

About Her
Cade squatted, spreading out his hand and welcoming Ivy to a warm embrace. “Were you crying?” Cade asked, wiping out the remaining tears off Ivy’s face. Ivy nodded affirmatively, pointing at Ms. Anne. “She called me baggage.” She reported. Anne quickly turned to face Cade, asking, “Mr. Westham, is there anything you need?” “Yeah! It’s very urgent, it can't wait, and I need YOU to do it.” Cade replied, lifting Ivy to his shoulder. “What is it you want, sir?” Anne asked curiously, grinning from ear to ear. Cade looked up at Ivy and smiled brightly, playing with her cheek while saying, “I need you to apologize to this cutie pie here.” “Now!” He added, giving a stern look as he turned to face Anne. Whispers flooded the air, as if on cue. Though discomfort and fury were washing over Anne's face, she dared not protest because Cade was a valued guest they could not afford to upset. She forced a fake grin as she looked directly at Ivy and apologized, “Ivy, I called you a bad word whi

DNA
“Daddy!” Ivy cried out excitedly as she ran from the midst of her friends, her backpack dancing in her back as she hugged Cade. Cade casually lifted her, jumping her in the air briefly before making her sit on his folded arms. “Why did you come to my school today?” She asked, grinning from ear to ear. Cade gently fumbled with her cheek as he replied, “I came to pick you up, silly!”“Woah! Really?” She squirted excitedly. “Did Mommy let you? She was so adamant that I would never meet you again. I’m glad you’re here.” She added. Cade turned away and rolled his eyes in disbelief, “She says Ivy is not mine but she’s always acting so suspicious.” He mumbled. “What are you mumbling about?” Ivy asked curiously. He didn’t want to lie to the kid so she decided to skip the topic altogether. “Ivy, do you want to eat ice cream? He asked as he started towards the ice cream truck in the school compound“Can I?” She asked, her eyes popping in excitement. “I don’t remember when last I had it.”

Little Miss Perfect
Dr. Martin grabbed Hazel’s trembling hand which was on the desk, “Hazel, you don’t need to worry. Ivy is doing a lot better now and as long as she continues taking her drugs, she will always be fine.” He reassured her. “As for now, she is just asleep. You can take her home.” He added.It was already very late in the night when Hazel arrived home with her daughter and as she stepped out of the cab, she was surprised to see Cade sitting on the bunk of his car in front of her apartment.” “What are you doing here?” Hazel, asked angrily. She quickly refrained herself from yelling so as not to wake her Ivy who was still sleeping. “I was worried, I couldn’t take my mind off the sight. What’s wrong with her?” Cade asked worriedly, now standing up before them. Hazel took in a deep breath, trying her best to stay calm and collected in this situation. “Cade, I’ve had a long day today thanks to you. I just want to rest. Please, leave and let me do that in peace.” She begged. “Hazel, I just w

A Get Away
Hazel swallowed hard, not sure how to react to the situation. She couldn’t believe the person she tried so hard to avoid and even ended up kissing Cade and losing her job was now her interviewer. “Cat got your tongue?” Serafina Moore, Hazel’s high school rival, asked mockingly. “I’m surprised! You always have so much to say.” ‘F@ck my luck.’ Her thoughts trailed off. Hazel forced a polite smile, her mind racing with a whirlwind of emotions. How could fate conspire to place her at the mercy of the one person who knew her deepest secrets, her darkest moments of weakness? “Hi, Sera…” She greeted her as awkwardly as possible.Serafina giggled heartily. “F@ck! You were always so stiff back then, how I wish everyone back in high school could see you. You’ve become so funny.” She laughed harder. The fake smile that lingered on Hazel’s face slowly disappeared. She has never been able to pretend around others so she decided to just be herself. “Fancy seeing you own a fashion brand. You h
