Jason's POVI walked over to Cassandra's door after getting off my car and pressed the doorbell. The door was opened almost immediately by Cassandra and I smiled on seeing her face."Good morning!""Morning," she replied dryly and my smile waned. "You can come in," she told me before walking off and I slowly let myself in then shut the door behind me."Is something wrong?" I questioned but she walked off without paying any attention to me.Why was she back to being hostile again? Was Liam's attitude rubbing off on her or did something happen that annoyed her?"Children, your Daddy Jason is here!" I heard her announce inside and the boys ran out excitedly.Mason was the first to get to me as expected since he was the most excited and Justin followed next before finally Robin.With the boys all around me, there was pretty much no room to focus on anything but them. I still noticed that Cassandra's attitude became less hostile as the day went by and by lunchtime when Liam finally came ou
Cassandra's POVI drove to the children's school to pick up the boys and met with their class teacher only to be told that they had been picked up by their father. I rushed back to the car to pickup my phone only to see that I had a missed call and one text message from Jason."Argh, I forgot my phone was on silent," I groaned and turned off the silent mode.I was about to drive away when I got a call so paused to pick up my phone only to see that it was Jason."Where are you? I just got home and there's no one here except the housekeepers," he spoke up once I answered the call."Yeah, Liam and I had business outside today but I just finished what I had to do now.""So should I wait for you to come home?""You can leave the children and be on your way, it's fine," I told him."Okay, bye," he cut the call.Minutes later, I was parking my car at home when I noticed that Jason's car was still in the compound."How come he hasn't left yet?" I wondered and got out of my car then headed to
Liam's POVI was totally taken aback on walking into my home after going out for some work yesterday only to meet Cassandra staring at Jason in the children's room. He wasn't even talking to her, he was just dressing up Robin.Why was she staring at him then? Was she thinking about her revenge? Or was she just watching the way he related with the children? Why would she be looking at him like that? It was a strange look and no matter how I thought of it, I was still discomfited.The boys didn't even welcome me because he was there. Only Justin came over to hug me and once it was evening, they started talking about him again. Apparently, he had said that he might come after work but he ended up not coming and called at night to apologize to the boys.It was all very disconcerting but I tried forcing myself to forget what happened. Today however, I made the decision that I had to go to Jason's office to talk to him so when I completed the work I had to do outside the house, I went to hi
Jason's POVI almost bursted into laughter on seeing Liam's facial expression as he left my office. He was in so much shock at my declaration and that made it so obvious that what I just did would earn me some peace of mind for a while.I was about to go back to working when I got a call and I picked up my cellphone only to see that it was Brian. That was the exact person I needed to be talking to right now."Hey, I need a favor from you," he spoke up once I answered the call."Just chill out for now, I have something to tell you. The favor isn't needed urgently, is it?""Tell me what's on your mind now, you seem excited," he urged and I smiled."Guess what happened today?" I began."Don't try to add any form of suspense to what you have to say, just spill it.""Okay, I hope you're not in a public place right now because this story is extremely funny," I warned."I wouldn't be accepting to listen to your story if I was in a public place, would I?" He queried me in response."That's ri
Jason's POV"Hello Cassandra," I spoke up as soon as she answered the call."Yes, why are you calling me?"Argh, she could always manage to be hostile whenever we were on the phone. However, when we were face to face, she could only be hostile for short periods of time and she broke the pretense, even if the children weren't around, so it wasn't just an attempt to hide our unfriendliness.I really didn't understand why she was still trying to make me feel like she was angry with me when it was obvious that she had buried the past.Was it because of Liam? It couldn't be though because she had been acting this way even before Liam started talking about me trying to allure her. Or had Liam been insecure of having me in their lives right from the beginning forcing her to try being snobbish towards me?But Liam had been nice to me in the beginning and it had really felt like he was the one who was encouraging Cassandra to let me be in the lives of the children. Or was I just mistaken?Oh w
Cassandra's POVI sighed as I finished putting the kitchen in order after cooking and picked up a napkin to towel my hand dry. I was just picking up my phone, preparing to leave the kitchen when I saw Jason's name flashing on my screen."Good morning," I answered the call while keeping the napkin back in its place."Good morning," he replied cheerily and I almost shivered.Jason had been so nice recently, way too nice for someone who was as cold-blooded as he was. It was an alarming change as this new attitude made it totally impossible for me to be hostile towards him but I did like it in a way."How was your night and the children's?""Mine was fine, the children are still sleeping though," I replied."Really? They are so lucky," he chuckled."Well, I'm about to end that.""Why? I'm so jealous of them, I couldn't sleep in even if I tried.""Way too used to being up early right?" I questioned."Exactly," he affirmed. "So... what do you have planned for today?" Jason asked me as I wal
Liam's POVI was just a few yards away from my house, driving back from a workout when I saw a car coming out from the gate of my house. I was already wondering how a car I couldn't recognize just came out of the house when we didn't have anyone that would visit but that was until I realized I knew that car.It was the car that had taken the boys to school and back when the press found out about Jason having children and were trying to get access to Cassandra and the boys so as to question them.That meant that the car that just left the house was sent by Jason but definitely not him because he usually drove a different car when coming to the house. Well, he had actually driven more than two different cars to the house but that car certainly was always driven by one of his guards whenever it came to the house and was way more bigger than the car models he usually drove.So where was he that he had to send a driver to pick the children up instead of coming by himself? I just concluded
Jason's POVI chuckled in pleasure after hanging up on Liam who was probably about to hurtle a comment at me and put my phone down. I was pretty sure that my closing line would sting him a lot but that just made me feel even more better. By the time that I was done with this plan, he would know better than to provoke me.I had imagined that he would react exactly the way he did but I still couldn't believe that he really thought that I was bringing Cassandra to my house to make a move on her. If I wanted to move a move on her, I would not have the children come over so that he would be aware that I was about to do something.I didn't plan to do anything twisted while carrying out my plan though because I was still going to maintain a relationship with her after the plan was concluded. She would probably feel embarrassed for the rest of our lives if I made such a move.I picked up the newspaper I was reading before Liam's call came in and my focus remained on it until I heard the sound
