Chapter 22

Five minutes to three o’clock in the afternoon…

Five kids sat around the table as they waited for the arrival of Daniel. They had purposely come early because they believed in the element of surprise. They wanted to catch the man off guard, lest he takes them as a joke.

Carl looked down at his watch as he counted the remaining seconds.

“Ten, nine, eight…”

Clarissa looked at her brother and frowned, “What if he is only late by a few seconds, will we leave?”

“Yes, he had made things difficult for Mommy so we are not going to make it easier for him.”

“But if we leave, he will never apologize to Mommy.”

“He will look for us.”

“Seven, six, five, four…”

“I don’t know why I am feeling nervous. Maybe we got this all wrong and the man might never show up.” Clare said as she rubbed her hands together.

“What is there to be nervous about? The man is the one supposed to be fretting right now. Maybe he has even pissed his pants, haha?” Castro said as he laughed.

    Chapter 23 “What did you just say?” Daniel asked. His heart rate increased even further and he could hear the thumping in his ears. Everything vanished and what remained was the voice of a little boy, who looked exactly like him, questioning him why he made his mother cry. “Our Mommy has never cried in front of us no matter how sad she feels. But yesterday was different. Did you bully our Mommy?” “Huh?” “Are you not listening?” “Sorry, come again.” “The reason my brother hacked your company was because you bullied our Mommy. Our Mommy is untouchable and anyone who dares mess with her messes with us. We are her protectors and we cannot allow anything to happen to her.” Clare declared when she saw the confused look on the man’s face. “Who is your mother?” Daniel inquired. “Ella Smith,” Caleb answered. “What did you just say? Can… you…say… that… again?” he asked, his voice raising a notch higher. His assistant was also shocked and he almost felt that he was dreaming. His mouth

    Chapter 24 “So, can you guys tell me your names?” “I am Caleb, and I am the eldest. This is Castro, then we have Clare, Carl, and then our little princess, Clarissa.” Caleb introduced his siblings. “We were born in that order.” “You are a girl?” Daniel looked at Clare and asked. When he first entered, he thought that there were four boys and one girl, but it seems like he was wrong. When Clare heard the question, she smiled proudly and nodded, then with a smug face she said, “Yes, but I am the most handsome among them, right?” Daniel looked at her demure and warmth flooded his eyes. He smiled gently and nodded his head, “Yes, indeed. Very handsome.” Daniel looked at them, wondering if he should ask the question logged in his heart. He had meant to ask Ella about the kids, but they had warned him that Ella should never, ever find out that he was meeting them. He also did not want to startle her as she might start to think that he was stalking her. He was just wondering how she

    Chapter 25 After dinner, the kids did not rush to their rooms as Ella was used to. Instead, they joined her in the sitting room as she watched TV, and cuddled in her embrace. “What is it, my babies? don’t you want to sleep?” Clare shook her head and smiled at her mother, “Mommy, it is too early. Besides, it has been a while since we have accompanied you to watch your favorite show.” “But don’t you have to do your homework?” “What are a few kindergarten questions when we have finished the grade six syllabus.” “Well, Mommy you seem to be in a good mood today, did something nice happen?” Caleb looked at his mother and asked. “Or did you get a call from your secret admirer? You were so happy that you could not stop smiling throughout dinner?” Ella was amused when she heard her children. Was it that obvious? “What are you talking about?” “Yesterday, you were crying like it was the end of the world, but today, you were smiling so happily. Care to share with your little angels?” E

    Chapter 26 Ella was startled when she heard the almost begging tone from Daniel. She even looked at her phone to confirm whether she was speaking to the right person, or if she was imagining things. “Can we, talk.” She heard the man continue, and she was clearly stunned. But Ella did not want to entertain the man as she did not know what he was up to so, she went direct to the point, “Aren’t we talking right now, what is matter, Master Edmond.” “You can call me by my name Ella, there is no need to be polite with me.” Daniel grimaced. When Ella heard the man, she sneered. “But don’t you like to be called like that, or am I mistaken?” When he heard her, Daniel hissed in frustration. He remembered how he had instructed her to never call him by his first name, and now he was thoroughly regretting it. “No, you can call me whatever you want. Have you had dinner yet?” He asked. He had no intentions of ending the call as he still wanted to hear her voice. Ella did not feel like talkin

    Chapter 27 Ella reluctantly took the thing in the man’s hand and when she looked at it, her eyes widened in shock and her heart thumped hard. It was a cheque with so many zeros. She had to squint her eyes just to count the zeros. When she was done, she jerked her head and looked at the man, utter disbelief was written all over her face. With her trembling voice, she asked, “What is this for?” “Investment,” Daniel said without batting an eyelid. “But… this is not the amount we agreed upon!” Ella said. Although she so badly wanted financial resources, she was not going to take advantage of someone. “About that, I recently got some money and I did not know where to invest it. I thought that maybe I should give it to you. Of course, I am not going to give it away for free, nor am I willing to throw away so much money.” “I also know that you need it. So, here is the deal, you are going to deduct the money we had agreed on in the contract, and the remaining will be my personal invest

    Chapter 28 “Hey, you finally remembered that you left a best friend on this side of the world. How ungrateful of you!” Paul grumbled the moment he heard Ella’s voice. “You haven’t changed one bit, have you? Always complaining about this or that.” Ella shot back. Paul chuckled and just as he was about to continue teasing Ella, he felt that something was not right. His best friend was not as cheerful as she has always been. “What is up girl, you don’t sound okay.” When Ella heard her best friend, she did not know why she suddenly felt emotional. She felt like crying and she sniffed her nose. Just a single sentence and he could already tell that she was not fine. What a good friend she has! Paul was now convinced that Ella was not okay. He quietly left the bed since he did not want to wake his wife up and headed to the study room. The moment he closed the door, he asked in a concerned voice, “Darling, what happened? Did someone bully you?” “No.” Ella shook her head. After calming

    Chapter 29 If anything, he knew that Ella was the best mom in the world. Sometimes, he was even envious of how she loved and spoiled her children. So, he did not understand where this self-pity was coming from. Ella pondered about it before she said, “They said that they are always envious of other kids playing with their dads. They want me to find someone who will take care of them and take care of me. It made me think that they have been considerate of me and stopped asking about their biological father because they did not want to hurt me.” “You have sensible kids and although they are more mature than kids their age, they are still children who need to be pampered and taken care of. Although you are doing everything you can to take care of them, they still need a male figure that they can look up to and consider the person their role model.” “Being envious of other kids is part of the growing up process. Actually, your kids only stopped asking about their biological dad becaus

    Chapter 30 Her eyes widened as she screamed in her mind, ‘What. The. Hell. Is. Not. Happening.’ Looking at her mother’s shocked expression, Clarissa felt accomplished. She felt that her mother was only shocked because the guys on the tablet were too handsome, that she was finding it difficult to choose one. She urged as she further pushed the tablet towards her mother, “Mommy, quickly pick one. Who do you like among all these men?” Ella lowered her head and looked at the tablet. There was a total of ten men and each one of them was extremely handsome. Looking at the names displayed and their unique features described, Ella’s lips twitched. Just for how long have they been planning this? The first one was Mason Queen. He was the CEO of Queen’s Investment company, he was thirty years old and he was 5’6 feet tall. His net worth was one hundred million US dollars, and he was considered to be among the rich in the city. Rumors have it that he found his girlfriend cheating on him so

    Chapter 114 (Last Chapter) They could not believe that she came from such a powerful family and that she had not used her background to make a name for herself in the Showbiz. Those who had laughed at her and made fun of her background, even coming here to specifically embarrass her felt their faces burn. They were so abashed that they wished they could just disappear in an instant. Although Daniel and Ella were not involved in the entertainment, their names were known all over the business world. Just a word from them and they could end their lives in an instant. They were so glad yet fearful that Clarissa had not used her family influence ever since she joined Showbiz, or else they could not have known how they died. Clarissa looked at her brothers and sister and continued the introduction, “My siblings’ identities are very sensitive due to the nature of their jobs, so they cannot reveal their faces or names to the public. But they are glad that there are so many people today to

    Chapter 113 Since Clarissa had decided to go all out, she had invited her friends from Showbiz. A few of them knew of her real identity and they could not miss the opportunity to associate with the rich. The moment six o’clock hit, the gates to the first Diamond Hotel were opened and luxury cars entered one after another. When the fans and the reporters saw that, although it was just a birthday banquet, they felt as if they were here to attend some award ceremony. They were so excited that they could not stop screaming. One celebrity after another descended the luxury cars. Others had their managers and assistants with them while others were on their own. Seeing that even those from the rival companies had come, the fans and reporters were stunned. Was this really a normal birthday banquet, because the lineup on the red carpet, was one of a kind. The fans were screaming once in a while every moment they saw someone they liked. But all their focus was on the gate, waiting for th

    Chapter 112 Their eighteenth birthday arrived in no time. Caleb, Castor, Clare, and Carl had all returned to the country. Castro was preparing to take over his mother’s position as the CEO of Diamond Real Estate Investment because Daniel could still hold his forte for a while at Edmond and Co. Caleb and Clare were rising in ranks because of their brilliant performance while Carl was still a ‘high school teacher.’ Clarissa was now a top-tier model and her fan base had over a billion fans. Everyone was curious about her mysterious background but she remained tight-lipped. Diamond Real Estate has expanded over the years and now it owns several hotels in the city. The quintuplet's eighteenth birthday was being held in the first hotel that Ella bought since it held precious memories for her and her family. The preparations began one week earlier. Every time Ella thought about how her kids were finally going to leave her care, and become independent, although they had never needed her f

    Chapter 111 Outside the beautifully decorated garden, a huge table was placed in the middle and all kinds of dishes were arranged there. Seeing the kids appear, Jane stood up and helped Ella with the seating arrangement. The men sat down watching their wives busy around as they sipped their beers. Paul looked at the all-grown kids and he could not help but feel emotional. He said in a hoarse voice, “I can’t believe that time has moved so fast. I still remember the first time I held those rascals in my arms. It feels like yesterday, they are almost eighteen.” Daniel looked at his kids and his expression was filled with love and gentleness. Only if he had not been an ass back then, he would not have missed such a great moment. Every time he thought about how another man had experienced what was supposed his, although he was not in a romantic relationship with his wife, he always felt jealous. But he was glad that Ella had given him another princess whom he had spoiled to the exten

    Chapter 110 Carl and the rest had returned to their rooms, and they were getting ready to start the Christmas celebrations. Clare looked at Carl and Caleb and revealed a worried expression. She asked in a small voice, “Have you guys noticed something weird about Castro? His expression before he left was like that of someone who had lost his wife.” Caleb nodded when he heard Clare. “I noticed too, the moment I saw him. When I asked him about it, he was not willing to say anything.” Carl looked at them with a calm expression, “He is going through a heartbreak. But he will be okay.” Both Caleb and Clare were stunned when they heard Carl. They shouted in unison, “What?” They knew that Castro loved Samantha and they had all encouraged him to pursue her. Samantha had finally accepted him and if he was heartbroken, then there was only one possibility, Samantha had ditched their brother. They did not believe for a moment that it was their brother’s fault. They knew how much he loved Sam

    Chapter 109 At seven o’clock, Ella’s guests arrived one after another. She was standing at the door, welcoming them with a sweet smile on her never-aging face. Jane looked at her best friend and smiled happily. She moved closer and hugged her, “I have not seen you in a few weeks and you have become even more beautiful?” “You are the one who has become more beautiful. Seems like Paul has been treating you really well.” After the two ladies hugged, Ella saw a beautiful girl standing behind Jane. She was tall and her beautiful hair cascaded down her shoulders, all the way to her narrow waist. If you looked at her closely, you would realize that she had a striking resemblance to Jane. Ella was stunned when she saw Samantha. She thought she was hallucinating and she only came back to her senses when Samantha called out to her. “Auntie Ella, long time.” Ella opened her arms and hugged Samantha tightly, her eyes turning a little red. She was so emotional as she hugged the all-grown wo

    Chapter 108 Carl’s heart trembled when he heard his father’s laugh. It was full of meaning and he even thought for a second that his father had found out about his secret identity. He was about to say something when his father spoke to him, “Come with me.” As Daniel said that, he stood up and walked towards the stairs. Carl hesitated for a moment before he followed his father. Daniel walked to his study room without looking back. Before he closed the door, he heard footsteps from behind. “Have a seat.” Carl was apprehensive as he looked at his father’s calm expression but he still sat down in the end. Daniel did not beat around the bush and immediately went to the main point, “Was your hunting tonight successful?” Carl could no longer hide the shock on his face. His father was looking at him, taking in all his expressions. Carl’s voice trembled slightly when he opened his mouth to speak, “How did you…” “You are my son. How could I not know?” Carl was startled. He thought his

    Chapter 107 After dinner, the family of eight sat in front of the fireplace, watching TV. December was filled with cold air and Ella was huddled in Daniel’s arms, as she asked her kids about their experience in the army, and Carl’s life abroad. She looked at her daughter who had become beautiful, and then at her two sons who had become manly, that they could make a girl’s heart race and her gaze became emotional. “Was life too hard in the army?” Clare, Caleb, and Carl looked at their mother before they shared a glance. Clare cleared her throat and stated, “I won’t lie to you. It was tough and very exhausting at first. I even thought of coming back but I did not want to embarrass you and Dad, so I just had to grit my teeth and bear through it.” Caleb picked up from where Clare left and he continued to narrate, “We were placed in different training camps and we rarely saw each other. But when we did, Clare and I were still undergoing our training while Carl had already become a hi
