Everywhere fell silent, and Avery thought the world had pause for a while. “Are you there?” Landon's voice echoes in her ears again, snapping her out of her thoughts. “Yeah… yes,sir!” She stuttered, Flabbergasted by the situation. “So, what's the name of this great chef I'm speaking with?” Avery went silent for a while. What did she really want with this man? She couldn't reveal herself to him. She can't let him find out who she was. Perhaps, she could use him to destroy Gianna. She could take advantage of the situation by flirting with him and making Gianna jealous. Recently, she had found out that her secret had been exposed to the world, which meant Landon had discovered the truth. Becoming Landon's chef and gaining access to
Chapter 19: The Billionaire Chef Avery was short of breath for a while. No! He must not find out about her. He can't know she was Avery, the surrogate mother he had hired years ago. “No! I think you must have mistaken me for someone else,” Avery corrected him immediately. Knowing he might suspect her more if she decided to stay quiet and not defend herself. “Ohhh, indeed. I thought I knew you.” He murmured and her mind calmed down. Avery went through the contract and was stunned by the amount he was willing to pay her. It was a lot, And for a while, she thought she really deserved it. She took her time to read the contract and then asked him some questions she didn't understand. After thoroughly checking it out, she let out a deep breath. “Thank you, sir. I will give you the best service.” She assured him, trying to let him know the amount he would be paying her will definitely be worth the food quality .“Please, take some rest for a while. Then my driver will take you shopping
Chapter 20: A search For The Triplets “I'm sorry!” Avery quickly knelt down the moment their eyes met with each other. Landon's anger quickly died down when he realized she was the one. “Ohh, Ava. No please, stand up!” Landon said calmly. His eyes focus on her. Beatrice slowly drifted away from them, distant enough that she wouldn't be seen.“I thought it was one of those disturbing servants of mine. Please, come inside!” Landon said, gesturing his hands for her to follow him. “I'm really sorry once again. I only came to ask what you'll be having for breakfast.” Avery demanded. Her gaze facing the wall. He was looking at her and she couldn't return the gaze. She was nervous. Tense and freaking hot inside of her. It's obvious, she wanted him and so did he. His body language tells her so. Tension hangs in the air as their eyes synchronise with each other. “I'm still waiting for your response. Sir!” Avery uttered, breaking the silence between them. “Just prepare anything you l
Chapter 21: The Spy Avery never thought he had found out about the triplets before she knew. She thought he had no idea they existed. Well, it's reassuring, knowing he knows they existed .The room was quiet for a while. Except the sounds of the clashing plates and that of Landon, who was still eating. Avery waited until he was done with his food. And then, he turned his head to face her. Ready to answer her question. “It's a long story Ava. I'm sure you must have heard a lot about me and they were all true. So with the help of these triplets, I will get back what I have lost.” He explained, making Avery skin crawl in anger. She needs to punish this man for what he did to her. He thinks it's okay to abandon her and the kids, and then start looking for them when he needs them? She was going to make him pay for everything he did to her. “I'm so sorry about that. I hope you find them soon.” She said,her spirit down. She just wants to leave this place and give the triplets a call. She
Chapter 22 :The enemy within “Follow me!” Gianna led Beatrice to the backyard of the house for more privacy. She doesn't want a situation where any of the servants would spare them or try to eavesdrop on her conversation with her. “How have you been, ma'am!” Beatrice uttered, her tone portraying sadness. She finds it hard to believe Gianna and Landon were no more. She finds it hard to believe they've been separated from each other. “So, what do you have for me?” Gianna knew Beatrice came here with bad news about Landon. Gianna told Beatrice to spy on him and probably try to video him anytime he brings someone to the house. “Unfortunately, it's not what you think. It's far beyond what you can imagine.” Beatrice brought out the phone from her bag and showed her a video of Landon and Avery which she had taken..Beatrice was more excited to tell her about Avery. Of course so far, she had developed raw hatred for her, due to her behaviour. And she fucking wants Gianna to get rid of he

Chapter 24Avery had no choice but to ground the triplets for two full weeks. It wasn’t an easy decision for her—after all, she understood why they did what they did. Their actions were driven by a mix of curiosity and a deep desire to uncover the truth about their past. But even with that understanding, she couldn’t let their behavior slide without consequences.The punishment was not about being harsh. It was about teaching responsibility. Avery believed that if she didn’t discipline them now, they might grow up thinking that hacking into someone’s account—no matter the reason—was justifiable. That kind of thinking was dangerous. She needed them to see that actions had consequences, regardless of intentions.And so, for the next two weeks, the triplets had no access to their iPads, laptops, or any form of digital entertainment. Ethan, Evan, and Ella were stunned when she broke the news. They had expected a scolding, maybe even a yelling match—but not a full lockdown of their devices
chapter 25Avery got there pretty late, two hours late to the time stated in the contract. Of course she was checking things out with the triplets and making sure their home lessons had come before she left the house. When she got to Landon's mansion, she noticed a different car parked around the parking lounge, and instantly , she detected he had a visitor. Avery had counted and marked at the cars he had. She hope whoever the person was, it wouldn't be Gianna.She wouldn't know how to face her. Not in front of Landon. Avery knew the moment Gianna finds out she's making moves on his ex husband, she would definitely flare in angers and that might triggered her into meeting with Landon and exposing her secret to him. Avery knocked on the door with a banging heart, hoping and praying whoever the visitor was, it wouldn't be Gianna. A few seconds later, the door went opened. Revealing Beatrice, the female servant. Avery exchange pleasantries with Beatrice and right there, she found a yo

Chapter 17: The call that changed everything Landon didn't feel the slightest bit of remorse for the hurtful words he had said to Gianna. To him, She was a liar and a manipulator. He needed her gone and out of his life for good. He was truly grateful to his brother, Smith, for discovering the truth and exposing her. If it hadn't been for smith,the situation could have escalated and grown far worse in the future. Imagine if Luke were to become the heir of the Robert family one day, he would have ruined their legacy, tarnished the family name, and perhaps even led to their downfall. At that time, Landon had been angry at Smith when everything happened, but now, he realized how much his brother had saved him, from Gianna's evil plans. The devilish woman he had married instead of a loving wife. “Please, I promise you I'm gonna change,” Gianna cried out, wailing on the floor. She was doing everything in her power to gain his sympathy ,but Landon was already done with her and this time
