"Babe, seriously. You can't play cupid between Chris and Olivia. What if - you fall for Chris?" He said it so casually, but Joan could tell that Cole's concerns were true.
She formed a sly grin on her face and hugged him by the waist. She pecked on his cheek and said, "That won't happen. I love you."
"But - " Cole's objections were promptly cut off by her explanation.
"Besides, I wasn't playing cupid between Olivia and Chris." Joan forced them to lay on the bed. She first rested her head on his arms and pointed out, "I was playing cupid between Aunt Edith and Katie! There is a difference!"
Holding Cole's jaws, she said, "You, on the other hand, you are going to hint to Chris that it is about that that he looks at another woman!"
"I don't know." Cole sighed and put his hand at the back of his head. He moved closer to Joan and said, "We haven't spoken clearly bout him refusing to be my best man. I told him, though, that I wished he would
"Who is your Dada?" Joan silently asked the little girl, Katie, pulling her on the side of the living room while Meredith excused herself to make a phone call.Her mother, Olivia, was also in the restroom.Joan promptly showed a picture of Christopher on her phone and repeated, "Who is your Dada?"Katie giggled and pointed at Christopher's photo before she uttered the word, "Dada.""Good girl!" Told Joan before she found herself chuckling at her attempt.She then swiped her phone to show a picture of Meredith. She showed it to the little girl and said, "Do you know who this is?""Ga-ma," said Katie before her eyes twinkled!Joan hugged Katie and said, "Good girl! You are just so smart and you choose the right Dada and Grandma!"It did not take long for Olivia and Meredith to return. They all bid goodbye before Joan dropped the mother and daughter off at the residential building where Olivia and Katie lived; in Christopher's
From the CEO office of the Hale Industries, Christopher found himself checking the distance between Pacific Grove and Los Angeles.It wasn't really so far. It was a five-hour drive. He muttered, "I could go there on weekends, I suppose."Yet again, he leaned back, finding himself in a puzzled state. He asked himself, "Why do I want to go to Pacific Grove again?"He just shook his head and leaned back to his seat. He wound up questioning his unsettling emotions.Last night, after having dinner with Olivia and Katie, he discussed the idea of moving away. He assured her there was no hurry in moving out from his penthouse. Moreover, he really did not have somebody to call his own.In short, he was single, currently unable to mingle, was still too hurt to find someone else, and did not have use for a bachelor's pad.While Olivia agreed to his suggestion, she still expressed it was necessary for her and her daughter to move out. Back t
From their busy schedules, Joan and Cole both visited Olivia at the penthouse. Joan was supposed to have a meeting with Olivia, but their appointment was put off after learning that Katie was feeling under the weather.Instead, Joan brought her babe with her to visit Olivia. Of course, they had a plan the whole time.Seeing Katie in the living room, lounging on the couch, Joan immediately rushed to the little girl and carried her. She said, "Hello, baby! How are you? Are you feeling better?""I suppose your right. Katie is an attention vacuum, you practically forgot that I was with you," said Cole while putting his hands on his waist and shaking his head in disagreement.It was the first time Olivia met Cole in a more casual circumstance, and she was immediately fascinated by how jealous he was over a little girl. Olivia could not help but comment, "Gosh, such a possessive fiance you have there, Joan."Letting out a laugh, Joan answered
Olivia did not know whether Christopher would come to visit that day. She did also know why she had been walking around in circles, just looking at the dress Joan gave her.She had it handed in front of her closet, enough for her to evaluate its alluring style."Do I really want to see what would be Chris's reaction if I wear this dress?" She asked herself. Shrugging, she admitted, "I guess so! Why would I even think about it?"She was looking at a red, fitted, haltered dress that would show off her sexy back and advertise her curves.Olivia had a beautiful shape. She was somewhat busty, and her lower assets did not shy as well.What made her look sexier was the fact that she had such a small waist.Olivia no longer had the time to go to the gym. Her only workout session was her daily crunches and pushups, plus running around after her little girl. She supposed that was enough to keep her fit, along with a proper diet.
"Liv, do you want to take that chance with me?" She heard Christopher Hale asked with his face resting on her forehead.This same man was the CEO of the Hale Industries. He was powerful, handsome, and with stunning blue eyes! If that was not enough, she was sure that Christopher was well built beneath his shirt.Hearing him, asking her to be with him, was enough to cause her a near heart attack!Olivia could not believe her ears. Never in a million years did she imagine being with Christopher, but destiny had other plans and she crossed paths with this gorgeous blue-eyed man.Her lips practically trembled as she answered, "Chris, I'd - I'd very much like to take that chance with you -I love the way you take care of Katie and - "The next thing she felt was his warm lips covering hers. Her words were cut off entirely by his pleasant kisses, and that quickly sent her into an instant euphoria.Chills ran down her s
Atop of a luxurious penthouse, from inside the living room space, two godly bodies were moving in the rhythm of their bodily desires.For minutes, Olivia had been moving up and down, caving around Christopher's length. Her body had started to glow with sweat, her hips occasionally ground to deepen the penetration inside of her."Aaahhh!" She gasped before biting her lip.With her eyes nearly closed, she looked down at Christopher who was holding her tight by the waist, his hand gently caressing her bosom while he was sucking on her other breast."Fuck, Liv. Your breasts are so good - so ful," remarked Christopher. He hissed as he looked back to gawk at how perky they were.He did not know how long he had settled on her breasts, but from that moment onward, he concluded, this would be his favorite part of Olivia.Christopher let Olivia take control for another two minutes before he decided, he needed to do
Staring at the ceiling, Olivia's eyes were nearly closed. Her mouth parted as she thought she was in a dream, engulfed with nothing more but pleasure.She bit her lip before turning to the side of Christopher's face. While letting out a hot breath, she unconsciously nibbled on his ear.Her fingers easily clenched against his golden hair, sensing her body trembling all over again.Christopher and Olivia were on their second round, making love as they lay on the couch.With Christopher on top of her, their bodies intertwined, both glowing in sweat.This time, in missionary position, Olivia could feel Christopher's frame rubbing against her. The friction of their chests, caressing each other had been sending her chills all over.It would seem to Olivia that the strange tingling sensation in between her thighs had become endless!She was practically squirming as Christopher thrust to and fro against her rose.
"Finally, he accepted an invitation," muttered Cole while reaching for Joan's hand."I know," said Joan before pursing her lips. "I'm telling you, I think he likes Olivia. I'm pretty sure he is in love with Katie, but he may still have to realize his feelings for Olivia.""Let's see if I can help it," said Cole. It was from that day that he realized his babe's actions may have actually borne fruits.He and Joan were having dinner at the Cafe Teran and had invited Christopher over. It had been months since the engagement party. Cole and Christopher's communication became on and off, awkward, and sometimes just neutral.Just earlier that day, when Cole called Christopher, trying to sway him again to be his best man, Christopher apologized and suggested that he would never miss out on being Cole's best man.Christopher's reacceptance of his role at the wedding warranted a reunion between the two best friends and surprisingly, i
A month after Joan gave birth. On a day without a caregiver, Cole alternately gave Robin and Mason a bath while Joan was resting after breastfeeding throughout the night. Cole came out from the bathroom with Mason, drying him on his crib. "Hey, buddy! You look so handsome! So much like me!" Remarked Cole. Seeing how Mason was stretching out his hands and turning red, he added, "Don't strain yourself, buddy. I know taking a bath feels so good." He put on Mason's diaper and changed him into his blue overalls before giving his little guy a kiss on the head. After looking at Mason with a grin on his face, feeling triumphant with being able to bathe and change his twins on his own, he suddenly heard a loud fart. The familiar and distinct smell filled his nostrils. "Damn." The smile on his face easily disappeared when he realized that Mason had pooped right after taking a bath and putting on a new diaper and clothes.&
Five years passed.On the sunny side of life; the Maldives and from inside a huge family beach villa, the JOLE couple was still sleeping soundly after pulling out an all-nighter, making love."Mommy! Daddy! Wake up! I want to swim at the beach!" Robin called, entering the room of Cole and Joan."No! I want to swim at the pool!" Objected Mason while following behind his sister.They both jumped on top of the bed, bouncing their bodies against in between their parents. The kid's way of waking their parents was very effective, as Joan had already awoken."Oh, guys! We are on vacation. Why can't you sleep some more? It's still seven in the morning!" Joan complained while still yawning.When Mason and Robin saw that their mother was up, they all went at it, waking up Cole."Wake up, Daddy! Wake up!" Urged Robin. "I want to make sandcastles and catch a mermaid!""Let's go swim with Kent, Katie, and
Eight months passed.From inside one studio of ANN network, Carie Umber was smiling from ear to ear in front of her audience. "Hello, ladies!""Aahhhh! We want Daddy Cole!""I'll just have baby, Mason!""Christopher Hale! Ahhh!"Screams of delight efficiently filled the space, knowing who was Carie's special guests for that day.Carie laughed at the crowd before telling, "Yes! that's right! Today, as a special celebration of father's day, we welcome two!" Carie signaled with her fingers before adding, "Two of the hottest Daddies in the city!"Shrieks once again echoed throughout the studio before Carie revealed, "And they happen to be best of friends!""Ladies, mind you... This is an exclusive interview... that will only happen on... An Afternoon with Carie!" Clapping her hands, she announced, "Let's give it up to the Superstar Model, a loving husband and now a father of two, Cole Adams!"The hoots and cheers
"Damn, Chris. You look terrible," remarked Cole during Christopher and Olivia's visit.It was Joan's third day at the hospital and she was due to leave the following day. The twins, however, had to remain as they still needed to stimulate their sucking reflex and gain weight before getting discharged.Olivia and Christopher determined to pay a visit while Joan still had her hospital room.It was on the sofas where the men were catching up with each other."I look terrible?" Christopher sarcastically asked. He pointed a finger at Cole and said, "Just wait till your babies get home. I have one baby and you... you have two."With a frown, Cole leaned back and inquired, "What's that supposed to mean?"Narrowing his eyes at his best friend, Christopher revealed, "Even if you have hired a caregiver... I tell you, Joan, being a mother would prefer to personally look after the babies... And I could say the same thing for you.
Three days passed.Just when Joan and Cole were expecting to deliver their babies at 36 weeks, the doctor announced in front of them, "your cervix is really dilating faster. I think... you will give birth tomorrow or anytime tonight."That made Joan frowned. She looked down at her belly and caressed it with concern written all over her face.Looking up to the doctor, she asked, "Will that be okay?""To be honest, we don't know for sure until they are out. Technically, they are still 34 weeks," responded the doctor. "In any case, we have already given your babies steroids to help mature their lungs. We hope that was enough intervention to make them breathe on their own."Joan felt teary-eyed, worried for her babies' condition. She asked, "What - what happens if they don't breathe on their own?""They will be put into a ventilator and given treatment to help them breathe, but let's hope that we have helped them enough, given the type of
A month after Olivia gave birth, Joan was admitted to the hospital and had been since.She and Cole left for a regular consultation with her doctor, but she was advised to remain in the hospital for complete hospital management of her pregnancy.The doctor found out that her cervix was thinning faster than expected and back then, her babies were still 32 weeks old. There was a risk of her giving birth prematurely, and Joan needed more frequent monitoring.Now, at 34 weeks in the pregnancy, and after staying in the hospital for two full weeks, Joan was feeling completely emotional.She still had fourteen days to go, but she was feeling disgusted about herself. She hated her back pains and the strain on her hips!Everything was so uncomfortable, yet, she could not even get up to take a bath, have proper waste disposal and go to the loo!She was already on complete bed rest before she was admitted to the hospital and thus; she
From inside the Ritz-Carlton Hotel's grand ballroom, many guests, dressed in formal attire, could be seen walking in the direction of the Hale Industries' anniversary party.Several cocktail tables were spread across the hall, allowing the employees to group into their own familiar party. All of them were enjoying a glass of wine and several canapes as they engaged in joyous conversations.Olivia and Christopher were mingling with the other executives in the front-most part of the venue, exchanging pleasantries with one another.Everyone was especially giving their best wishes to Olivia since she was already on her 37th week of pregnancy."I'm sure, your mother is very excited," remarked one of Christopher's directors."Yes, very much," said Christopher before putting a hand behind Olivia's back. He leaned over and whispered, "Are you okay, darling?"Dressed in a long royal-blue maternity gown, Olivia smiled at her hu
"Babe, I have good news for you," said Cole, right after they came from their monthly visit with the doctor.Joan's belly had turned six months old and her doctor's appointment has been weekly, due to the fact that carrying twins was a high risk.While Joan was getting settled in the car, she asked with twinkling eyes, "What is it, babe? Are we going to eat... ice cream?""Ah, we could stop by the shop that offers... protein ice cream," said Cole before forcing a smile."Oooh... That should still be yummy, right?" Joan probed."Absolutely," acknowledged Cole. He helped buckle the seatbelt of his wife before going to the driver's seat and closing the car.After turning on the engine, he revealed, "Anyway, my surprise for you... I don't have any projects for a week! I refused any TV guesting, and I have my new assistant take care of any urgent matters for the apparel company! So, I am free for a week! We could spe
Getting home from their dinner with Cole, Olivia and Christopher first put Katie to sleep in her own room.Since they were now married, Katie rested with her nanny in the other room of Christopher's penthouse.The entire shower time, Christopher had to accompany his wife, worried that she would slip on the floor with her eight-month belly. He helped her get dressed, especially the part where she puts on her underwear.He smirked and said, "It's like taking care of a baby."Olivia laughed and said, "Oh, you have no idea how it is to take care of a baby, darling. I'm telling you...Putting on panties? This does not even compare." She shrugged and added, "Just because I find it hard to bend does not make me a baby!""Stop scaring me." Christopher aided in putting on her sleeping dress and said, "Now... let me prepare our bed.""Okay, darling. Let me just get some water," said Olivia before walking out the door.Whi
