Days had went passed by pretty quick. It's been a week after they went to Disneyland. So far, things had been good after that day. Xavier and Margarette's relationship had become less complicated and heavy which causes them to live comfortably around with each other for the past days."How long would it last for the renovation though? I need the exact date right now." Xavier was on his phone and was talking to someone in the garden. Margarette didn't want to interfere and listen to the conversation, but she was already there and felt the need to continue eavesdropping even though she knew it was bad. "One month is way too long. I don't care about how much would it all be cost. Double the workers and make it as soon as you can, I will double the payment. Do you understand me?" He nodded his head as if he was listening to the person on the other line. "Okay, good. 15 days, alright? Okay, good, good."He turned off the phone and let out a sigh before he put his phone back to his Jean's po

Chapter 85: SoftShe took his hand rather hesitantly. She still has doubts but she's beginning to trust and forgive him. After all, it wasn't that late to start anew... Right?The three went up to the rooftop together through the elevator in the mansion. Margarette's arm was linked to his and their daughter was holding her father's other hand. They looked so perfect together. The staff and other people in the mansion couldn't help but to get stunned at how beautiful the three are.The elevator had come to its halt, welcoming the family of three to the nice, warm and comfortable wind of the night. The three of them have a smile on their faces.Xavier led his wife and daughter to the table and pulled out the chairs for them like a real gentleman before he took a seat of his own.The Christmas lights around the small mini garden on the rooftop makes everything so magical along with the soft, chilling music that comes from the piano and violin makes the atmosphere lighter and much more com

Chapter 86She averted his gaze and pretended not to hear him at all. She turned around. "Oh, my. I think I should take a bath first, right?" she blabbered around, as if she was busy doing something. "Oh, I think I should just clean my face."She picked something from the bed; a towel, and then went to walk towards the toilet. But before she could even take a few steps from him, he held her arm to stop her."Margarette," he said through his low voice. She stopped. She closed her eyes tight and mentally cursed herself.She spun over her heels and faced him with a nonchalant look."Look, I'm sorry, okay?" she started. "That just slipped through my mouth mindlessly and I didn't even realise I said it until you pointed it out yourself. Don't think about it. It was nothing. I didn't mean—"He put his finger on her lips, stopping her. "Hush." He chuckled. "I just asked one question, you don't need to write a whole essay about it."She pursed her lips into a tight line as her cheeks burned. E

She already heard him said before that his siblings left years ago, but she must've forgotten about it. A lot of things had happened and remembering those details is too much for her, but now that they tackled about it, she suddenly remembered. So they left, huh?The reason was very heartbreaking to her. She was the reason why the siblings broke apart. She's guilty about it. She blamed herself for breaking their relationship. But then, Xavier reassured her that everything is all good and she should not worry too much about it.After their breakfast, Xavier went to do something in his office; probably to do his duty. Margarette was left to fend over their daughter while Xavier was busy with his job. Margarette ended up trying out the new recipes she have learned on the internet and baked together with her child, Xaire, which only resulted with them nearly burning the kitchen. Good thing that the kitchen staffs are very friendly and reliable when it comes to things like that. During the

Eventually, the kid got tired of crying and ended up sleeping. Xavier's heart was heavy for not being able to do anything to make his princess happy as it was against Margarette's will. If he could just, he would spoil his daughter with everything that she wants, but unfortunately, he cannot do that under his wife's watch.He glanced at his daughter through the mirror and saw she was sleeping. Tears were still on her cute face and she looked so pitiful it broke his heart."If you keep spoiling her, she'll grow up brat," Margarette said, crossing her arms.He understood what she was coming from, but as a father who loved his daughter more than anything else, it pained her to see his child cry."I understand," he said, but in his mind, he was already planning to treat his daughter tons of chocolate later when Margarette was no longer watching.As they reached the restaurant where they would be having a lunch, Xavier immediately exited the car and opened the car's door on Margarette's sid
