“Will you guys open the door right now?”

Nathan, who stood by the door with the phone in his hand, exhaled one last time at his mother's words and then turned the knob gently.

He pulled the door open and Elena entered the room gently, and then dropped her hands on her waist.

“What is going on?”

“With?” Nathan grinned.

Her brows drew together and she collected the phone from him.

“What were you doing with my phone and why did you lie that it was not here?” She asked as she browsed through her phone with the hope of finding out what they were up to.

“Uhm…” Nathan scratched his forehead.

“The thing is…!” Natalie jumped up and rushed to her.

“I remember you saying that you downloaded a game on your phone so I wanted to show Nathan.”

Elena pressed her lips together and stared at her kids unsurely.

“I don’t trust you two,” she shook her head and then turned to leave the room.

As soon as she walked out of the room, she turned to look at the door that her kids slammed shut instan

    Ryan shook his legs vigorously as he kept his eyes plastered on the screen of his phone. He had been on her I***A page since forever and had been looking at her pictures all day. Every day, she crossed his mind, and every time, he refrained from reaching out to her because of Zeke. When Ryan remembered the incident that happened some years back, he knew it was his cue to not trespass. He knew a person who married his friend’s sister and right there, Zeke had shown his disgust at it. “How could my friend fall for my sister? That is messy!” He had laughed it off, even though at that time he was developing feelings for Chloe already. But since he had thought it was just something casual and would leave in a short time, he agreed with his friend to his face. But, many years had passed, and his feelings for Chloe had only grown more. The woman established her business about three to four years ago, and she has been topping the chart in the fashion industry. He loved that for her a

    “What, what?!” Ryan asked and snatched the phone from him. His brows snapped together as he read it, he raised his head to look at Zeke who had already covered his face with his palms. “Who is this?!” Ryan asked. “S… someone. Fuck Ryan, Not Elena and the kids!” He yelled. “I honestly do not understand what is going on,” Ryan shook his head. Zeke swallowed hard, snatched his phone from Ryan, and then browsed through it. Ryan watched as he typed on the keyboard, leaned towards him rather impatiently, and then creased his brows at what Zeke was doing. “Find the whereabouts of this man in the next twenty-four hours. Forty-eight hours maximum.” With a picture attached, he sent the message. “You just broadcasted it?” Ryan asked. Zeke nodded his head and sniffed. At least, a hundred of his informants across the world would receive that message and then work on it immediately. “What is going on?” Zeke stared at Ryan for a few seconds and then narrated everything to him without mis

    “W… what? Who is on the Internet?” Zeke stuttered and snatched the phone from Ryan. It was the pictures Ethan had sent to him a while ago. It was the picture of the kids in front of their school and the one at the cafe which clearly captured Elena too. It meant one thing; Ethan had sent it to the press. The headline stated: BILLIONAIRE EX-WIFE MADE APPEARANCE WITH THEIR CHILDREN. Zeke could feel his heart burning and his head banging as he read the article. They talked as if they were sure about everything they were saying. They said he was their father. They said he probably denied the babies which was what led to the divorce. Or that she didn’t know she was pregnant till she left the house. Zeke knew that it was only a matter of time before the podcasters began a field day on their matter. He closed his eyes, his grip tightened around the phone and then swallowed hard. “Y… You have kids?” Jeremy’s voice made him open his eyes and then swallow hard. “Elena has children?”

    It took almost a full minute before Elena composed herself, sniffed, and then rested her hands on her waist. “Take it down, Zeke. You never should have exposed them that way,” her voice was low, but he knew she still wanted nothing more than to scream again. Zeke clasped his hands together and then exhaled, “I did not do it, Elena I did not make that post and I never would have! You… you think I would do something so horrible to my kids… my children…! Even after knowing what mess it would be for them!” Elena stared at him as the rage in her eyes slowly loosened up. She knew when he was lying, and she knew when he meant his words, to some extent, that is. And right now, it didn’t seem like he was lying. “I know you hate me. I know I have wronged you… and the twins, but… that? I would not do that to them, and you! I know what sort of pest the press are so why would I go to such length?” “Who knows? You might be in such a hurry to tell the world that you have children.” Zeke nodded

    Elena took a last glance at her wristwatch and then unfastened her seat belt. It was almost closing time so she knew she had to go pick up her children. “Should I come with you?” Zeke asked as she placed her hand on the car door handle. She turned around gently with furrowed brows and then smacked her tongue. “I am going to kill you if you get out of the car, Zeke,” Elena threatened and Zeke laughed. “See, my brother is right there. We passed a message already, didn’t we?” He asked. When Elena didn’t answer and only shot him a dead stare, he waved his hand and said, “Alright, alright. Just hold on. Let me drive closer to the school. The reporters will catch up with you if you get out here,” he said and she nodded her head. As the car stopped away from the other car which belonged to Jeremy, Elena pushed the door open and instantly, the security men rushed to her before the reporters did. They guarded her to the gate, and when she got there, she knocked, and the door opened almos

    “Eh, mama? Tell us. Tell us,” Nathan kept asking as he hit the back of her chair. “Nathan, keep it down!” Elena snapped. “Daddy, why did you come to pick us up? Is something happening? Or… are you back together with mummy?” Elena was forced to look back and sucked her teeth with a frown. “What are you saying? He is not your…!” She stopped talking and then took a glance at Zeke who kept his eyes on the road even though he looked unsettled. Elena could read the expression on his face. He looked pained like he was being deprived of his right. “Oh, come on mama. We know he is our daddy, right, daddy?” Natalie groaned. “Have you two come back together? That would be so nice to have our daddy and you together again. Did the television people…” “Jesus, we are not back together!” Elena hollered and everywhere went silent. Nathan tugged his lips to a knowing smile and then turned to look at his sister. “She just agreed that they used to be together, right?” Natalie nodded her head i

    The car stopped in front of the mansion, and Zeke breathed out in relief as there were no reporters in sight. Since their mansion was quite secluded, it was possible that they could not find their way there. Elena got out of the car, opened the car for her kids, and then watched as they got out gently. “Let me hold your backpack for you,” she extended her hand at her kids who were sulking. “Never mind,” Nathan brushed her hand away gently, picked up Natalie’s hand, and then walked to the gate with her. Zeke got down from the car, rested on the car, and then watched them as they waited by the gate. Elena hurried to them, rang the bell, and then placed her face on the security camera that was under the gatekeeper’s jurisdiction. The gate opened instantly, and she motioned to her kids to enter. Instead, they both turned around to face their father and then waved their hands at him gently. “Get back safely, Da…” Nathan picked on his finger and swallowed. “Uncle,” he said, raised

    After she left her mother’s warm embrace, Elena stood in front of her children’s room and then pressed her lips together, wondering if she should enter or let them be. A minute literally passed since she stood there before she finally summoned the courage to knock on their door and then push the door open. As she entered fully, she watched the kids who sat on the bed, side by side with their books in front of them. “Uhm… are you working on your homework already?” She asked, her hands clasped in front of her as she walked slowly over to them. While they only nodded their heads in unison without raising their heads to look at her, she stood by the edge of the bed and then shook her leg gently. After a while, she settled on the edge of the bed and then dropped her hands on her thighs. “Are you… mad at me?” She asked. “No, why would we be?” Nathan answered, still not looking at her. Elena exhaled and then shook her head. “See, see, you’re both holding a grudge. Can we just talk it

This is so crazy!” Nathan yelled.“Language, boy,” Elena smacked her tongue.“Daddy, mommy, this house is so…! Huge! It is freaking huge!” Natalie cried out.She rushed to the couple and then hugged them tightly together.The excitement on their faces was everything.Zeke wouldn’t stop grinning from ear to ear as he watched his children look around the living room.“Before we take a full tour, do you both wanna see your room?” He asked and then jumped in in excitement.“Yes!”“Follow me,” he took Elena’s hand and then walked to the stairs gently while they both trailed after them, holding hands too.Their room was on the third floor, the same floor as theirs and when they got there, Zeke curled his fist into a ball and then smiled.“I will open t

    FINALE.“Everyone, my name is Natalie!”Came the tiny, adorable voice of the girl which made everyone murmur in excitement.“Hello everyone, I am Natalie, the older twin of my mommy and daddy,” she introduced again and the couple laughed where they sat.“Today, I stand before you… to read my heartfelt letter to my mommy and daddy,” she said again.“It’s all written here,” she brought out a paper, “But, I would not be reading it. As I have something else to say to them… from the depth of my heart.”“So…” she sniffed and then looked around at the pairs of eyes that were bored on her.Her palms were sweaty and her breath was getting heavier.Would it have been better if her aunt had read the letter instead of her?“Erm…” she stammered and looked around again.When her eyes landed on her brother, Nathan who gave her a thumbs up, she smiled gently and then nodded her head.“Today is a dream come true, everyone.

    “Oh, my!”Chloe gasped as she stared at Elena and shook her head through teary eyes.“Don’t be dramatic,” Elena rolled her eyes.“Only that I am not!”Chloe breathed in as she took in every detail of the dress that she had made.This might actually be the best wedding dress that she had ever made.Elena, the bride stood radiantly, her grand white wedding dress shimmering around her like a celestial aura. The dress hugs her curves in all the right places, spotlighting her slender waist and toned physique.The fitted, mermaid silhouette showcases her feminine sculpture, while the sweetheart neckline frames her heart-shaped face and highlights her dazzling smile. Her long, flowing white sleeves cascade down her arms like a river of snow, with delicate, sparkling beads and detailed lace trim that catch the light.Elena makes a very beautiful bride, and she was glad she had the honor to make her beautiful on this day, her day.Elena and her brother were tying the knot today and she had bee

    “You really should not be doing this, Chloe, trust me,” Elena sighed as she stood in front of the woman who looked around for what to get, to begin with the measurements.“No, no. I am doing this. I will do this. I must make your wedding dress, what are you saying?” She frowned and then grabbed the measuring tape.Chloe had remained adamant and no matter how much she had tried to stop her from worrying about making her wedding dress, she didn't listen.It’s been two weeks already since she had gotten engaged to Zeke, and then in a month, they would be getting married.If it were up to Zeke and his mother alone, the marriage would be taking place the following week after she got engaged, but she insisted on going slow.In fact, to her, getting married a month and two weeks after she got engaged to him was slow too but they were going to pull it through anyway.Of course, she wanted to be married again.In fact, she could not wait to be married to the man who had brought so much joy to

    Waking up the next morning, Zeke had the widest grin on his face.The kids were sleeping heavily in their middle with their arms and legs crossed around he and Elena’s bodies.They snored so gently and he found that cute.Now that he was looking at them, the kids had the same sleeping style as Elena.Their legs spread wide, dropping on each other, their arms wide, and while one was dropped on their heads, the other was spread widely beside them.Their mouths were parted very gently.He chuckled, leaned closer to the drawer beside the bed, and then picked up his phone.He took a picture of them together while he carefully ensured that he didn’t wake any of them.After that, he took a personal one of Elena and zoomed in closer in order to capture her face.When Elena suddenly stirred in her sleep, he returned his phone and then dropped his head like he was sleeping.But that was all, the woman was still enjoying herself as she didn’t open her eyes.He chuckled, got out of the bed gently

    She finally raised her head to see the people around them.Her mother, her father, and her sister.Zeke's family was not excluded. Including the couples who had been out of the country for their honeymoon, Chloe and Ryan.Unable to hold back her tears, she burst into tears and sniffed back hurriedly.“W… what are you… doing?” her voice broke as she asked no one in particular.The twins said nothing and made way for Zeke who covered the space between them and then picked up her hands in his.He kissed the back of her hand and then went on a kneel gently.“Zeke,” Elena mumbled.“So, I thought hard and thoroughly about how to do this properly. To give you the proposal that you deserve, but, this is all that I could settle with. You deserve way more than this and I would do anything in the world to prove to you how amazing and precious you are. We… We have had our ups and downs. I have fuck— messed up many times…” “And you do not deserve the things that I have done to you. You have no id

    It has been nearly two weeks since Elena and Zeke had become so open with their relationship. Over a couple of times, the paparazzi had caught them during dates and had released numerous articles about them.Although people were happy for them, there were still some people who wondered why they had divorced in the first place and if it was right that they returned together.But, she knew what she was getting back to. Elena had told Ariana that.“Not everyone will be happy with the choice that I have made and a lot might hate me for that, in fact. But, everything that I am doing is for me and my babies alone. Everything that I do is for my happiness and I am ready to deal with anything that comes with it,” She had said to Ariana that day after dinner in her room.The woman had shown concern on how the netizens were trolling her but it still would not change the fact that a larger netizen was rooting for her and Zeke.“Do you think he wants to propose?” Elena asked Ariana who helped he

    Zeke turned to look at the woman who sat beside him in the car, humming as gently she could, happiness written all over her.His mind went to the box that was in his car’s dashboard and how she had rejected it this morning, telling him, “I will not accept this… at least, not like this.”And then, it occurred to him that he needed to propose grandly to her.That was his original plan, but, all of a sudden, he could not wait and just wanted to tell her everything.“Are you sure you don’t want to go home first?” Zeke asked her, and then dropped his hand on her thigh.“I have totally forgotten that there was a meeting this morning. I could just dismiss it but I have done that too much this year.”“It does not matter.”“It does, so, step on it. The meeting will start soon.”“Yes, ma’am!” He exclaimed, moved his hand away, and then stepped on the pedal.•••“Should I pick you up when you’re done with work?” He asked her as he pulled in front of the company.“No, no, I’ll just call my chauff

    “Babe…”He kissed her lips gently and bore his eyes on her.She yawned and stirred in her sleep before she squinted her eyes open.“Why?”“Are you hungry? I want to order food for us,” he said, while he kissed her neck.“God, did you wake me up for that?” She frowned, stretched lazily, stretched her arms and wrapped them around his neck, and then locked her legs around his waist.“Babe…”“What is the time?” She groaned.“It’s past nine.”She widened her eyes, sat upright, and then shook her head, “We should get going!”“Shall we?” He tilted his head, wrapped his arm around her stomach, and then pulled her back to the bed.“What are you doing? Everyone will be waiting for me!” She laughed as he tickled her.“I have called Ariana that you’re not coming home tonight. So, no one will wait for you,” he kissed her.“Oh, Zeke.”“What do you want to eat?” He asked again and then kissed her ear.“What do I want to eat…” she drawled gently in an accent.===THE NEXT MORNING.Waking up next to h
