All Chapters of A Baby Sitter's Love: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

OliverI really did, and I fondly remembered when Eloá was just a baby and all the moments I had with my little one. Every stage is important and rewarding, as Brian well put it."Charlotte spent time with Nicole this week," I paid attention to Brian's information. "Is everything alright between you two?""I feel like it's not," I confessed, holding my head with both hands and letting out a tired sigh. "Did Charlotte say something to you?"I could deny it and say everything is perfectly fine between us, but I'd be lying. Nicole has been acting strange, and despite her attempt to pretend everything is fine, I can sense that something is bothering her, and she doesn't want to talk to me about it."She didn't tell me anything, but I noticed she seemed worried since the meeting with Emily and Nicole," Brian said."Despite my family's latest attempt to sabotage my relationship with Emily, we're doing fine, and I'm sure if there's something going on, she'll tell me," Douglas reaffirmed. He

Emily The weekend with Douglas's family in the Hamptons was as terrible as I had imagined, but I managed to survive. Douglas didn't leave my side for a single minute, despite all his family's attempts to keep him away from me and leave me defenseless—or at least, that's what I believe they think of me. It's not entirely untrue, after all, I don't want to get into a conflict with my future in-laws, even though they are unbearably snobbish."I have something that might cheer you up," Douglas had mentioned when we were alone in his room at the Hamptons' house. "As you witnessed yourself during the past year, Mom and Nora tend to spend most of the year traveling, except for the summer when they spend more time in the city.""Not exactly in New York," I added, "but I get what you mean."

Nicole To avoid further problems with Martina, I chose to stay in Eloá's room after the little one left with her father. I imagine that my little girl's sad face mirrored my own, as seeing her like that broke my heart."They've already left," Oliver announced, entering the room and sitting next to me on the arm of the armchair."I don't trust Martina," I vented what had been stuck in my throat for too long. "She's mean.""I don't trust her either, but I hope nothing bad happens to my daughter, because I'm not sure what I'm capable of doing."Oliver's face was stern, in a way I had never seen before, and his jaw was clenched, with a vein bulging in his neck. I could imagine how hard it was for him to keep his emotions under con

EmilyDouglas was laughing again, and I couldn't pretend that everything was fine anymore. Because it really wasn't!"Alright! You win," I said defeated. "You and your 'best friend' Rochelle...""Yes?" Douglas put his hands next to his ears to imply that he was listening attentively."Did you two ever date?"Douglas shook his head negatively but didn't say anything."Did you hook up then?" I tried again.Again, just a negative gesture."A little kiss or something?" I insisted, not giving up.Again, a negative response."Cat got your tongue, Douglas?" I asked, no longer hiding my irritation. "Why don't you speak!?"Douglas looked around and with a dramatic sigh, he leaned in closer to my ear and spoke softly enough to be heard only by me."Because I'd like to answer in a much more interesting way," he whispered, sending shivers down my spine. "But I don't need privacy for that.""And since when is privacy necessary to answer a simple 'yes' or 'no,' Douglas?"I really couldn't understan

Nicole Seizing a moment of distraction from Oliver, I hurriedly left the waiting room. I couldn't feel at ease knowing that I might cause any trouble for him, so I chose to leave before he completely lost control and ended up arguing with Martina, something I sensed was about to happen.Martina didn't want to be near her daughter, and the biggest proof of that fact is that she preferred leaving Eloá under the care of the nanny until the moment she realized that Oliver and I would be together with our little girl. At that moment, she quickly changed her mind, probably with the sole purpose of having some alone time with her ex-husband.Even though I'm consumed by jealousy, I need to accept whatever may happen, even if it means Oliver will take Martina back, despite all she has done.
