He was seated on the sofa beside Adam in Adam’s luxurious office.“It’s nothing!” Adam’s cold voice came through. He still did not answer the call.Oliver stared at him for a few seconds, trying to find out if something was truly wrong. Just like always, Ollie could tell something was wrong but making Adam open up to him was another thing entirely. He had never known anyone as secretive as his best friend.Oliver was about to continue their conversation when Adam’s phone rang again.

He sighed. He honestly wished Adam could have what he had. ‘A happy home’. “Be careful,” He whispered to Adam after which they both exchanged a hug.The moment Oliver excused himself, the blondie walked in gracefully. She was putting on a revealing red dress.With a smile on her face, She stopped by Adam’s desk, placing her purse on it, then she approached Adam who was on his feet.“Hi baby,” Her low pitch seductive voice came through as She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed Adam on his lips. He didn’t respond. Instead, he pulled away.“Why did you come here when we agreed to meet at the club?”“What difference does it make?”“Stop with the sarcasm, woman!” He raised his voice. “I expect an answer when I ask you a question. Or do I need

Closing the door to the fridge after taking out a bottle of water, Adam internally rolled his eyes when he sighted Tessie standing at the entrance of the kitchen. He acted like he didn’t see her, and just focused on the bottled water in his hand. “11:39 pm. So who were you with, tonight? Natasha, Lucia, Cynthia, Sera or Alicia.” Tessie mocked with her arms folded as she leaned against the wall by the entrance. Adam gulped down the water from the bottle. “I bet it was Diane! Where did you guys fuck? In the car, club restroom, your office

Would you tell me you didn’t hear our daughter when she was crying her lungs out?”

Adam Sleeves opened his eyes at exactly 6:10 am. No matter how late he slept, he was used to waking up early. Looking to his left-hand side, he saw that Anna and Calvin were still fast asleep. He felt Anna’s forehead with his palm and instantly heaved a sigh of relief when he didn’t feel any temperature. His plan was to take her to the hospital today if the temperature persisted but now that She was okay, going to the hospital was off their to-do list.Gently getting up from the bed, Adam reached for his laptop, cellphone and made his way over to the sofa on the other side of the room. Once settled, he spent the first forty minutes going through his emails and replying to them, after which he started searching for reliable agencies for nannies. Not finding anything impressive, He picked up his phone and dialed Oliver who picked up after

“Hi, Jess.” He greeted his best friend’s wife.“Hi, best man!” Jessica’s teasing voice came through, making Adam smile. He was the best man during her wedding with his best friend, Oliver, so that has been his nickname since then.“Hope you’re good?”“Yeah, thanks. Ollie told me about you needing a nanny. Fortunately, I got one for you.”“Thank you so much, Jess,” Adam said immediately.

Even though the last time he saw her was when they were teenagers, heaven knew he couldn’t go wrong with her identity. The petite teenager he was very fond of had grown into a beautiful woman. Normal height, her then skinny body was now replaced with well-defined curves which were evident from her knee-length dress. She still maintained her dark wavy hair and even though it’s been years, her face still remained the same, except for the fact that she looked even more beautiful.“Kara????!!!” Adam whispered, not believing the fact that the face that has haunted him in his sleep for over ten years was now looking him back in the eye.“Good evening, Sir, I’m here to see Mr Sleeves.” She said in a professional tone, soun

Kara sighed, slightly giving up because she knew she was also at fault.“Forgive me too for keeping something important away from you. I should have let you know my view about us having a baby too soon.” “Come over here!” Adam gestured for her to come closer to him and she did just that. He placed a soft kiss on her lips, caressing her cheek. “Please let’s forget about the past. I promise not to hide anything from you again or give you any form of silent treatment.” “Me too.” “The baby, thank you.” He smiled, looking down at her belly.Katherine chuckled, “It takes two to make a baby.” “I know. It’s just amazing to know we are going to have a child together again. It’s something I’ve secretly wished for. I was not there when you were pregnant with Annie, I wasn’t on good terms with Tessie so I didn’t experience much during Calvin’s pregnancy, we had Anna through surrogacy so this is going to be like my first time, experiencing everything step by step with the woman I love most in

Tessie got a well deserved judgment of three years imprisonment with a permanent restraining order to stay away from Adam and his family.

Once the children were done with their food, Kara packed their lunch bag. “Zane took your Dad to work. Unfortunately, I’m not in the mood to drive so I guess we will all be leaving with Seth.”“Seth will drive. We will drop Anna and Calvin first, then drop you at school after which he will bring me back home.” “You look so tired. I’m sure you didn’t have any sleep last night. Why don’t you stay at home and rest? I’ll take care of my siblings. We will drop Anna and Calvin first, then Seth will drop me off at school.” “Are you sure? My head pounds like crazy but this is something I can manage to do.” “It’s fine, Mom. I’ll take care of today.” Annie assured. Once re

Epilogue 12 months later Katherine slowly opened her eyes, coming face to face with the cold and empty space beside her. Despite how heavy her head was, She knew she needed to get up and start her day. She eventually had the strength to get out of bed after staring at the ceiling for a couple of minutes. Before going into the bathroom, Kara reached for her phone on the nightstand. She unlocked it, then went to her message app. Staring at the receiver’s space, being unsure as to whether to send the message or not, She finally found the courage to do so with shaky hands. “Good morning, baby. What do you want for breakfast?” Seeing that the message had been delivered, Kara placed her phone back on the nightstand, then went to the bathroom to do her morning ritual. She dried her body, changed into a brown sundress, then brushed her hair.Returning to the bedroom, Kara proceeded to the nightstand where her phone was. Her heart fell when she didn’t see notifications of any replied mes

Just as promised, Adam ensured they all went out for breakfast. They did some grocery shopping before coming back home. Once home, Calvin suggested they all went for a swim. That was when they realized Annie couldn’t swim. She mostly watched the others have fun but Kara made her come into the water too, teaching her a few strokes. Adam made a mental note to register her for swimming lessons. Shortly after The Sleeves had lots of food, snacks, and drinks delivered at their doorstep, their guests arrived. “Uncle Adam!” Evan ran towards his godfather the moment the door was opened. Adam chuckled, picking up the little boy, showering his face with kisses, making him giggle. “I missed you, Uncle Adam.” “I missed you too, buddy.” “Where’s Calvin?” “In the living room. You wanna go meet him.” Evan nodded eagerly. Adam kissed his forehead, then placed him on his feet after which Evan ran into the living room. “Holy shit, Jess.” Adam’s lips curved into a genuine smile when he saw her

He couldn’t believe it was possible to experience ease, happiness, peace of mind and so much joy after living a life filled with nothing but sadness.Waking up every day to his family was the sweetest part of Adam’s life. He couldn’t get enough of Kara and those little humans God blessed him with. Unconsciously, he found himself looking forward to spending every hour of the day with them. Adam knew he had to return to work eventually but he knew it wasn’t going to be anytime soon. For now, the feeling of missing a thing that goes on with his family doesn’t sit well with him.

He couldn’t believe this was the feeling he had been deprived of for years. Car

Adam sleeves wasn’t someone that was into Shopping. He said would rather have people do them for him. But seeing the gorgeous smile on his beautiful daughter's face while buying stuff for her was so fulfilling. He bought everything She needed and a lot more. They got stuff for Kara too, as well as Calvin and Anna. The last stop was the apple shop. Annie wanted just one device but Adam made sure she got multiple. An iPhone, iPad, a MacBook as well as necessary accessories. Kara got an iPad too. They had lunch at a very reputable restaurant not far from the mall after which they went home. Adam was able to avoid being recognized by using his disguised shades. It was only at the point of payment that every cashier knew it was him. Once they got home and put everything they brought away, Adam and Annie left to pick up Calvin. “Having a good time?” Adam said to his daughter the moment he drove out of the mansion. “Yes.”“Thank you.” “For the stuff I got you?” He asked, taking a glan

“I’ll be right back,” Adam said, excusing himself.Stepping into the living room, he answered the call. “Good day, Mr sleeves.” The not-so-familiar feminine voice came through. “Good day, Alicia. How may I help you?” He asked, politely. “Actually, Sir, I apologize for wanting to have this discussion over the phone when it should be done face to face.Adam ran a hand over his face, already having an idea of what was going to come out of Alicia’s mouth. “We are deeply sorry about Helen’s behavior. I’m quite shocked too because she’s our best staff and never have we had any bad report about her. We are deeply sorry, Mr. Sleeves. We can issue a refund if you want. But please don’t let this go public. It will ruin the Agency’s reputation and the employment of other employees.” Adam exhaled. “Tessie came to you, Didn’t she?” “She reached out to us on the phone.” “So what did she say?” “She said Helen has been nothing but a disaster since she came into your home. She never takes goo

Pulling away from the hug, Adam and Katherine noticed that their daughter’s eyes were filled with tears. Before they could both say anything, a tear rolled down Annie’s cheek which She wiped away immediately with the back of her palm. “What’s wrong, love?” Kara voiced out, moving closer to her daughter. “Did I do anything to hurt you?” Adam whispered, wondering what went wrong. Annie sniffled, shaking her head. “I never got the chance to call you 'Daddy' or know you better and I saw that lady almost kill you.” “My love,” He raised Annie’s chin so she could meet his gaze. “I’m not going anywhere. Not now or ever. This is where I belong. With you, your mom, and your siblings.” “You have nothing to be afraid of. No one is going to take your Daddy away from you. That lady will definitely be jailed. She won’t come back into our lives. I promise you.” “Please, be careful, Daddy.” She whispered, looking at him with pleading eyes. Adam smiled. It felt so good hearing his almost teenage
