(Karis's pov) "Please tighten your seat belts and make sure you have everything in place. We will be landing soon in." The pilot's baritone voice echoed through the intercom of the first-class area of the plane.My little troublemaker beamed a smile and then stared at the window excitedly; she had the brightest smile ever as her grey eyes sparkled on hearing the pilot's words. "We are finally here." Valeria giggled, glancing at the beautiful city visible below us from the plane. I could not believe I was finally back after almost five years. Valeria was excited to visit the place I had my childhood in and begged me to bring her along on this trip which I was wary of. It was better to be safe than sorry and the last thing I wanted was her running into Xander. Anyone with eyes at first glance would know she was his daughter. Which was annoying. I carried her for almost nine months in my stomach, and she chose to look like that bastard. "Compose yourself, or I will se

(Karis's pov) Valeria was having fun at Skyler's mum's home so she asked to spend the night over since I would be busy the entire evening. I was hesitant, but Skyler assured me his mum was cool, and he was the one I trusted more than everyone in the world. The night was lit, and opulent figures from all over the world related to the fashion industry were there. Anyone who was someone in the world of fashion attended the winter show. . Although unfortunately it was yet to snow the weather forecast predicted a light snowstorm that night. I was part of the organizing committee. Fortunately, I didn't take part in the red carpet event, but I was informed of everyone. Up till now, there was no sign of Xander De Marco. I didn't know why I was bothered by that because I was meant to not give a damn about him. "So far, everything is going perfectly well; the paparazzi are more organized than last year." I heard the head of security inform me from the intercom. "Alright keep me pos

(Karis's pov) My heartfelt reunion with Betty was cut short when Lavender ran into the small cabinet room. She was stunned that I was holding Betty's hands and crying but quickly composed herself. "Madam, we have a problem. One of the models was assaulted by a guest that came backstage, and they are in a cat and dog fight." She informed me. I felt a headache coming as I grabbed my shades and rushed out. I even forgot to ask who the guest was; this was the first time I was hosting such an important event, and I could not afford to make any mistakes. Luckily, my make-up was waterproof, so crying didn't ruin it. I could already hear the fight from ahead and rush faster. On reaching the fight, I was quickly pissed off, the model was fighting with the supposed guest, and no one dared to stop them because she was Xander De Marco's fiancee. Filled with fury, I dashed into the middle of the mess to pull them apart; that model was among the ones for Bertha's runway, and

(Xander's Pov) It turned out I was worried for nothing; by the next morning, I stopped by the hospital before going to work, and Vance was doing fine. Kyle said he had a very good immune system that fought the flu virus quickly. He would be discharged in a couple of days after they were sure he was perfectly fine. "I scored a new top score," he excitedly showed me his top score on the game he was playing on his tablet. I had an amused smile seeing how happy he was. Maybe Vance inherited my gaming skills. "Congrats but you still haven't beat my score. " I teased him, making him pout. His expression was hilarious. "What a touching father and son moment! I feel like crying." Someone teased from the door and I didn't need to look behind to recognize the son of a bitch. Vance's eyes sparkled on seeing him. "Uncle Ivan." He excitedly said to my red-haired friend. Ivan had visited me a couple of times since I took Vance in and as hard as it was to accept it, my so

(Xander's pov) Three days later went by, and Vance was cleared to be discharged from the hospital. Since the first day at the park, Vance and Valeria played every day there. They played together and Valeria loved showing off her violin skills. . There was a restaurant close to the park, so we had our lunch there every day, and honestly, Valeria was a lovable but tricky girl. It was nice to see Vance make a new friend, and I didn't mind accompanying him during my lunch break. Her presence helped Vance improve his shyness, and he started acting more lively, way better than how he was the first time he moved in with me. "Daddy, I asked Valeria to register with me in a duet competition required for pianist and violinist." He excitedly informed me while Kyle was giving him a last check-up before he could be discharged. "That sounds nice, but her parents would have to give their permission before she can attend," I replied to Vance. For the entire 5 days,
