Artemis' POV
Mr. Cloud really went with me in the garden. I refused and politely declined but because he said that he wanted fresh air while asking questions, I didn't do anything but let him. I really need to call my daughter Athena. I'm sure it'll make my daughter sulky if I miss calling her today.I just sighed so Mr. Cloud looked at me."You look like you are forced to have lunch with me," he said with a laugh. It won't take long to eat, so maybe it's not too bad. Athena will be done with her lunch with that too."So, is it good that you got in? Zelo's usually doesn't take female bodyguards," he said looking at me before taking a bite of his steak. I just sliced mine too before shrugging my shoulders."Well, I'm not surprised anymore. I was Zelo's classmate in law school back then. I often saw your photo in his wallet and I think I already saw you. You were already familiar to me during the interview and onlArtemis' POV"Where the fuck are you going now, Artemis?" he said angrily when I stood up. He grabbed my wrist. I looked at that while my forehead was deeply wrinkled now."Oh, away from someone annoying like you, I don't have time to think about your pleasing attitude," I said sarcastically. I removed his hand from me. Even though his hand was bigger and could easily cover my wrist, it was easy for me to remove it. If he is strong, so am I.I'm just left straight away. I just went to the playground here at the Palais because that's the place that I can call Athena. See? The Palais is so big that it can be a barangay. Well, there are actually a lot of people who live here.I called Athena after I sat down."Why did you call so late, Mama?" she complained immediately when she answered from the other line. It seems that she has been waiting with his Uncle Ares' cell phone for a while now. I bit my lip hard.
Artemis' POV"Can I take him to his first class at school?" I asked Zelo. He looked at me for a while. I thought he wouldn't agree but later on, he just nodded.It's Hades' first day at school. He should only be homeschooled but he wants to be a normal student so Zelo can't do anything because that's what our son wanted. I was worried about him but I really wanted to give him the normal life that he wanted to.It's been two days since he knew about me almost kidnapping him, so not like how it usually acts before that when he sees me, he'll approach me and talk to me immediately. He just treats me like a ghost now. They are really father and son. If I don't talk to them, they will ignore me. Zelo is still cold to me. When he is not, Artemis?That's better so I don't have to put an invisible line between the two of us. He has a fiancee and I should respect her.And now, it looks like his fiancee will be in the same
Artemis' POVI just got out of the car holding my coat. There are traces of coffee on my white long sleeve polo shirt. Mrs. Yu went out immediately when we arrived. Marching somewhere because I didn't try to put up a fight with her. I don't really fight with girls verbally. Even if she doesn't say those harsh words, I already degraded myself so there's no need for that.I saw some staff looking at me but I went straight to my room because I was slightly cold, the coffee spilled on me had dried up.I started to unbutton my polo when I looked at the door. I frowned when Zelo went straight inside. He was sulky when he walked towards me."Angel said that you threw a coffee on her. That you hurt her hand," he said so I grinned sarcastically before shaking my head. I just continued to remove my polo shirt. I didn't pay attention to him anymore. He acts like he doesn't know me at all. I won't do petty things like that."
Artemis' POV"Why do I even need to be on watch if they are just going to eat? Why? Would someone throw a fork in the dining area?” I asked Junio when it was dinner and he was asking me to watch over them. Well, I'm up until eight o'clock but why do I have to watch them? What? I will only hurt myself there."It's your job. Don't be too picky," Junio said to me. It was obvious that he really didn't want to prolong the conversation. And he doesn't give me what I want. He just told me to look after the President's family.I just rolled my eyes and couldn't do anything but sigh and went to the dining area. I just waited for the three of them. Later on, they went inside, at first it was still quiet but after a while, the three of them were talking happily. When my son and Zelo's eyes pass by my side, it seems like I was just a wind to them. They ignore me completely. The only person who looks at me is Ms. Yu, she even looks at me from head to
Artemis' POVFunny how I tried to convince myself on what I should think about. I followed them when Junio got out of Zelo's private jet. I don't know why the look of the three of them was replaying in my brain over and over again even though it was already done. I don't know why I kept remembering what Zelo did. As if it was a looped video and I don't even have a choice to stop it. The senior guards and I went down first while carrying some of their things. We'll stay here on the private island of Zelo. I extended my hand when Hades came down but he just looked at it coldly before waiting for Ms. Yu to hold him. Ms. Yu extended her hand. My son accepted it. I see the grin on Ms. Yu's face when she looks at my hand which is still hanging. Hades ignored me as if he hadn't seen me.Or maybe he feels disgusted to even hold me. You should understand that he doesn't like you anymore, Artemis. I just gave way to the two of them. I just followed
Artemis' POVI tried to distract myself by looking at the place while the three of them were already enjoying the place. We are here at their swimming pool area. That's why my eyes can't stop going back and forth to them. I saw Hades on Zelo's back, while they were laughing with each other, Ms. Yu is taking pictures of the two of them."Hey," she called me when she saw that I was looking at them. I didn't move. She's not telling anything. How would I know why she's calling me? I saw her sharp eyes when she looked at me."Come here! We need someone to take a photo of us," she said. I turned to the younger guard than me. He is one of Zelo's senior guards. His lips immediately parted and he couldn't believe that I was passing the command to him. Well, I'm not really sure who is Ms. Yu ordering either. Also, she didn't call my name either. I don't know if it really a command for me."I said you," she coldly said to me but because Z
Artemis' POVZelo, who was carrying food, immediately put down the food before attending worriedly to his son. When he looked back at me, he glared at me as if I had the ability to hurt my children. I can't help but feel remorseful because of that.He just carries out child while Ms. Yu is holding Hades's hand. As if she was his mental support. I was dumbfounded for a while while looking at their place until I eventually straightened my back. I just went to where they were while taking the ointment from my pocket.I immediately saw them in the living room. The three of them are serious. When they saw me, I saw Hades avoiding me while Zelo continued to treat our child. Ms. Yu glared at me. "What are you still doing here? Isn't it enough that you almost hurt my child?” she asked me coldly so I slightly tightened my grip on the ointment.“I'm not here to put more pain on Hades. I just want to give him an ointment,"
Artemis' POVI was already off duty when I met Hades walking towards the kitchen. He just stayed on the beach earlier, he wasn't in the mood to swim. He was just looking at the ocean. While watching him earlier, it was like seeing myself. I was always like that when I was having a deep thought."Are you going to eat now? Should I ask the chef to get you the food you want?” I asked him."No, thank you. My mommy will get me food. We will eat together," he sounded so formal. He didn't say it rudely, but I really feel that the distance between the two of us has gone too far. I just nodded before letting him pass by. I just watched him walk until he completely disappeared from my eyes.I just went outside and tried to contact Athena. I stayed far away from the guards that are taking turns right now."Good evening, Baby," I greeted Athena softly but her usually happy voice couldn't be heard."Good evening,
