Kieran helped William settle down in bed and left the room.Valerie was waiting at the door. She asked, "Is Dad asleep?"Kieran nodded in reply. He lifted his hand to hug Valerie around her shoulders, then led her into their bedroom.William had Bronswell keep an eye on him while Martin had Amelia t
He wasn't too worried about her anger burning the whole house down. If he got on Valerie's nerves, there might be no more snacks for him from the food streets.Stirred awake, Valerie rose from the couch, looking groggy."What were you up to last night?" Morgan asked bluntly."I was up playing a game
Kieran could no longer resist his urge to kiss Valerie. He planted a kiss on her cheek first, then slowly moved downwards.His hands had also shifted from her shoulders down to her waist, gently loosening the knot in her robe."Morgan wished for us to bear two children in three years, but I think on
"How dare you, Victor? You blocked me!" Valerie hissed.When Kieran walked out of the shower, Valerie was still on Google and diligently following the set of instructions provided. She mumbled to herself, "Adjust the font size, then align—Wait, why did the numbers turn into a bunch of jumbled chara
The morning came. After breakfast, Valerie went to Kieran's study to use his printer.Just as Kieran was about to leave for work, he heard Valerie calling out for him from upstairs, "Darling, darling."Martin looked at Kieran and said, "Go upstairs now. Find out what's going on."Kieran turned on hi
Morgan uttered, "If Dad hears this from you, he'll be on cloud nine.""I wouldn't dare say this in front of Dad. He'll pester me for grandchildren all day long," Valerie replied.At the lecture hall, Valerie handed the sheets she had printed to her group members.Dr. Aberto commented that the labeli
Morgan was standing on the opposite side of the road. She watched from afar as Valerie talked to a strange man. Annoyance was written all over her face.She crossed the road to Valerie's side and stood near her. "Val, what's going on?"Valerie frowned while saying, "I'm being offered a free milkshak
Aware of what she could use to compel Kieran to oblige, she threatened, "With your capabilities, the favor is nothing for you. "So, are you helping me or not? If you refuse, don't expect to touch me at all. Don't even think of sleeping next to me tonight."Kieran pulled her arms away from holding h
Valerie and Morgan held sparklers in their hands and exclaimed, "We're lighting up the night just for you."Julian was left stunned and without words.Inside Kingsley Estate, a warm and cozy feeling enveloped everything. It felt like a pleasant spring day. The sound of the television softly humming
Morgan blinked and asked, "Wait, are you only marrying me to, you know, sleep with me?""Yep." Bennett nodded.Morgan blushed without meaning to. She didn't think Bennett would be so straightforward."Just because you want to sleep with me doesn't mean it'll happen. Dream on," Morgan snorted. Lately
After Kieran had some water, he refilled the glass and handed it to Valerie. Valerie, lazy to move, drank from the glass in his hand.Oliver, now fully-fed, turned around and stared curiously at his mom who was drinking water. Everything in the world was new to him.Kieran let Valerie deal with Oliv
Oliver rested on Kieran's chest. With his foot on Kieran's shirt, he placed his hand on Kieran's strong shoulder. Tired from all the crying and wailing, he quietly enjoyed a sunbath with a squint, oblivious to the grudge that Julian held against him.Julian was forced to join the meeting due to Kier
Julian pointed out, "But Oliver keeps crying and won't take any milk."Kieran stared at the scowl on Oliver's face and felt bad for the little one as the father. After a pause, he resumed bottle-feeding Oliver slowly. Then, he said to Julian, "You should go back to work."By this time, Oliver was t
After Valerie brought it up, Amelia realized that Morgan was nowhere to be seen all day. Valerie tapped into Morgan's Facebook profile and showed it to Amelia. "Look, it's Bennett's off day today. See, there's a guy's hand in Morgan's photo she just posted."Valerie did not even need to guess the id
That conversation reminded Kieran of Valerie, who was in her prime but was cooped up at home all day. He didn't recall seeing Valerie go clothes shopping.When he got back home, he opened the closet to check for Valerie's clothes. When he turned around, he found Valerie cleaning the baby's backside.
Kieran asked, "A president is human too, no? How could I miss my wife and my son's health check-ups just because I'm too busy? Did I hire my assistant hired solely to take care of my family affairs? The nanny is not omnipresent either, you know.""Well, the company presidents I know are always busy
No one thought that William would agree to it so quickly.Even Valerie was wrong.She looked at her husband and awaited an explanation.Kieran looked at her and smiled, then put his hand over hers.Valerie knew from this gesture that he had predicted this from the start. She was still too naive to p
