All Chapters of Claiming My Baby Mama: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

LEILANI The car pulled up in front of a magnificent building, I couldn't help but gasp in awe at how beautiful it looked. Just looking at the house brought tears to my eyes, never in my life did I imagine that I would be so rich to afford a building this big. Smiling, I pulled a sulking Melinda into the house. I stared at the entire decoration of the building, it looked so stunning. At one corner of the compound stood a statue of a sad pregnant woman, next to it is a statue of the same woman, smiling with a little girl in her arms. When I bought this house, I requested for these statues to be built. I wanted to show California and all those that rejected me that I excelled. I wanted them to know that my daughter and I were healthy and smiling. Just staring at the statue brought back memories. Memories that were unpleasant in the past, but pleasant to me in the present. "Mummy, why did you walk off like that? I wanted to get my look alike's number," Melinda whined beside me. My a

LEILANI Sienna slept over last night. She was afraid that I would suddenly disappear again if she leaves. I didn't bother to convince her that I wasn't going anywhere, as I honestly wanted her to stay back. "Good morning, mummy." Melinda greeted as she walked out of her room. "How was your night baby?" I asked and approached her. "Terrible," she muttered and scrunched her face. Alarmed, I became worried that maybe she didn't like the house. "Why terrible? Couldn't you fall asleep?" I ask. "Aunty Sienna snores a lot. She cuddled me the entire night, I felt so hot, but she never let go," she complained, glaring at her room behind her. "I can hear you, Melinda," Sienna yelled from inside the room. Last night, Sienna insisted on sharing a room with Melinda. There were other rooms in the house, but then, she refused to sleep in any of them, saying she and Melinda needed bonding time. "I don't like her," Melinda whispered. "I love you so much," Sienna said. Melinda's eyes widene

LEILANI After announcing Sienna as my PA, I stayed back as Sienna familiarized herself with the other workers. I also wanted to know as many workers as possible by their names. In my quest to expand my company, I learnt that workers are inspired to do more when they know that the CEO knows them by name. This is because they feel that having been known by the CEO if they don't put in their best, they might get fired. Nearly three hours passed and I was still with the workers. While talking to one of the workers, my eyes accidentally went up to a clock on the wall. "What the fuck," I muttered on seeing the time. It was already half past two and Melinda was yet to have lunch. "You guys, keep speaking with Sienna. I will be back shortly," I said and walked away. Sienna ran after me, seeing how I was walking hastily. "Is anything wrong?" she asked. "Melinda is yet to have her lunch. Don't mind me, continue with what you were doing." I quickened my pace. Sienna didn't listen, she st

MELINDA I used to like Uncle Lucian, I always imagined him as my dad and wanted him to be together with my mum, but knowing my lookalike changed my mind. Uncle Lucian now seems annoying to me and I hated the fact that he wanted to be together with my mum. I want my mum to be together with no one other than my lookalike, and I will make sure of that. I will keep driving guys away from mummy until she has no choice but to accept my lookalike. I smiled as I thought of different ways of bringing them together. "That smile of yours is questionable," Mum muttered, looking at me. "I'm just happy Aunt Sienna is not yet back. I'll be able to sleep comfortably in my room tonight," I said and beamed at her. Mum giggled. "I'll call her and ask her to come back home. It's already late after all," Mum said and brought out her phone. "Don't you dare, mummy," I yelled. She paid no heed to me and dialed Aunt Sienna's number. "Bet it, she won't be coming home tonight," I shouted. Mummy stuck o

MALCOLMI felt pressed and needed to use the restroom badly. I reached for my phone on the desk beside my bed. Once I touched it, I turned it on and checked the time. It was 3 am. I heard a gentle snore beside me, making me turn around. There lay my little princess fast asleep. I hit my head to reprimand myself for forgetting that I slept together with my family."Family," I muttered and a smile adorned my face.I gently covered Melinda with the duvet and placed her properly, as she was nearly falling off the bed. Noiselessly, I got off the bed and headed for the bathroom. I caught sight of Lani curled up and shivering on the sofa. My eyes widened, I tiptoed to the air conditioner and turned it off, switched on the heater, and then went back to my queen on the sofa. I lowered myself to the ground and watched her sleep. Her face was so calm, peaceful and innocent. I couldn't stop myself from smiling."I know I messed up, but I'm truly sorry. Just give me a chance to prove myself, " I m
