Mr Billionaires Secret Baby

Chapter 51

Chapter 51 Dante was becoming unbearable!

From whisking Hayley away at the most random times during the day to partake in what ever activity or random doings to inviting himself to our meal times especially breakfast which was now a full on daily event unlike before.

His newest doing that had got me increasingly furious had been when he had come in the way of what ever plans Hayley and | would make. Hayley, being the observant child that she was, would insist that she wanted to do what we initially had planned but | knew better. In the end | would shrug it off like it didn’t sting a little and send her of with Dante and she was immediately thrilled to go with him.

Her entire face would light up at any given second that Dante would enter any room and | liked that she was finally Setting all the fatherly attention she had missed out on but it felt like Dante was competing with me to be the favourite parent.

It had taken a few days for me to tell her about who Dante really was to her but | finally got to it. It was one night after dinner where we both were in pajamas and the night was a chilly one. Over two cups of hot cocoa and 3 mini marshmallows, | carefully explained to her that Dante was her father.

Naturally, she had questions which ranged from why | hadn’t told her to her asking if that was the reason she and Dante shared the same eye and hair colour. Ultimately, she had taken it well and | guess | expected that seeing as she was already so obsessed with him. She hadn't called him dad or anything like that yet but she did refrain from calling him by his first name which posed a small amusing issue when she wanted his attention.

| let out a heavy breath as | rubbed my eyes with the back of my hands before kicking my legs over the side of the bed and finally starting my morning. | knew that Hayley was awake since | had heard. her shuffle about in her room a moment ago.

It was a Saturday which meant that there was no rush to do a thing and | intended on having a full day with Hayley myself since Dante hadn't called any plans with her yet.

| threw on a silk robe over my shorts and tank top before sI*pping on my grey sI*ppers and leaving my room. It was just then that Hayley exited her room bringing us both to face each other in the hall way.

“Good morning, Hayley.” | smiled at her and she giggled still wearing her white pajamas with small pink hearts all over it. “Morning, mama. We left our rooms and the same time.” She pointed out and | nodded.

“We did. Are you hungry?” Just as | posed the question, her stomach growled as if getting to a response before her. That had caused the both of us to laugh at that before | motioned in the direction of the kitchen with a nudge of my head. “Let's get some breakfast going.” She beamed at the words and began heading down the hallway and the stair case. Chuner M

| followed her reminding her to be careful down the stairs. When we entered the kitchen, | pulled at high chair for her to 44 on behind the counter.

“Can | help do some thing?” She asked and | nodded as | stood in front of the open fridge to get eggs, milk, some fruit, and whatever else | needed for breakfast pancakes.

“Of course, we can make breakfast together.” That obviously excited her and she did a little dance.

| shut the fridge and moved to give the berries a wash before | stood next to her at the counter. | cut up the berries and Hayley placed them in the bowl as we chatted but then a small moment of silence over came us.

It was just the two of us making breakfast enjoying the ease but | could tell that some thing was on her mind. Not wanting to rush her to it, | let her be and moments later she opened her mouth to speak.

“Mama, why don’t you and Uhm,” She struggled to call Dante by his first name. “Your father.” | helped her.

“Yes, my father. Why don’t you live together like normal parents do?” She questioned and the knife in my hand stilled for a moment.

| tried my best not to get all seized up when ever she had questions about Dante and | but | also had to explain things in the most simplest and easy way possible to her.

“You see, it’s a little different with us. Your father and | were married for a short time but then we parted ways and | had you.” | paused to give her a k*ss on her head before resuming to chop the last strawberry.

“It would be the coolest thing ever meals together and go out together. Like a family.” She spoke so innocently that it shook my heart

if we stayed together in the same house. We'd share all of our and | wanted to hold her so tight but | also didn’t want to over stress the moment.

“| know but it will get better. Your father will make as much time for you as he can and you'll grow in to a routine with it and it will feel normal.” | tried to ease her mind away from things that were not going to happen.

She was quiet from then and | handed her to wipe her hands after she placed the

bowl aside.

“Now, do you want to make pancakes all by yourself?” | asked her and that immediately had her all bright and excited again.

| weight out the ingredients and let her put it all by herself in to mixing bowl. She didn’t let me crack the egg because that was some thing she wanted to try herself and | let her. | explained to her how to do it and she followed the steps before cracking the egg in to a smaller bowl. It was her first try and while she didn’t spill any of the egg, she did crack the yolk which was no issue.

all.

She celebrated her first time cracking an egg and | was happy to watch her enjoy this moment. She poured in the milk then slowly mixed the batter together and watched it form just as there was a knock at the door.

Chapter 51

It was firm and unmissable but it was also early on a Saturday for me to be expecting any one but some thing told me I knew exactly who had been behind that door.

“That’s weird. I’m not expecting any one today.” | said as | wiped my damp hands on to the kitchen towel.

Not wanting to assume just yet, 1 sauntered over to the door leaving Hayley on the chair to mix the batter not missing her saying that she hoped it was Dante at the door to which | didn’t respond.

The knocks sounded again, a little firmer and impatient this time. | reached for the door knob and twisted it open and low and behold stood the father of my child unannounced and at my door step before 10 in the morning like it was normal.

Dante was freshly showered. | could tell by the damp tendrils of his hair that had been styled in his signature look. He wore a pair of dark jeans and a muscle hugging black Ralph Lauren shirt. His jaw was cleanly shaven and | could smell the sharp scent of his after shave.

“What are you doing here?” | held the door open just enough so that | could wedge myself in the small space.

Dante had the nerve to smirk like he was trying to charm me but | knew otherwise. He leaned lazily against the door frame taking up most of the space..

“Good morning to you too, sunshine.” He said sarcastically.

“What. Are. You. Doing. Here?” | pronounced each word with careful deliberation.

“Can't a father stop by to see his child on a Saturday morning?” He raised a sardonic brow at me and | felt my nose twitch. “He can but not when he has been here nearly every single day this week.” | retorted but he was not bothered at all.

“| don’t see the problem with that at all.” He said with a shake of his head before peering over my head to see in to the house.

“Of course, you do not but you have been showing up here unannounced and with out any prior arrangement. | haven’t had one single bit of time alone with Hayley all week.” | said, my frustration. audible in my words but Dante was not moved in the slightest.

“You've had her all to yourself for years now, Soph. | never thought you'd be so selfish. He tilted his head to the side to throw me an observing look but | knew that he was doing this to beg on my

nerves.

“And | never thought that you would be so over bearing but all | can say is that | made the right decision all these years

not telling you about her. Your behaviour proves that my life would have been hell had you know about her. | guess | bought myself nearly 5 years of peace.” My words were sharp and it had cut him.

| saw his eyes tighten at their edges, his I*ps press in to a thin line for a few moments, and his shoulders stiffen. Chapter 51

“Pray that | do not counter your peace for the rest of your life. He said tightly threatening me from doing what we both knew he had the power to.

“Now, move aside so that | can see my daughter.” He pushed me aside with his own b*dy that manoeuvred his way between me and the door frame.

| shut the door behind him just as | heard him call out for Hayley as he entered the kitchen. Hayley’s squeals of excitement grew louder as | approached the kitchen.

“You made it just in time. Mama and | making pancakes for breakfast. Hayley said to him with a bright smile on her face.

Dante ruffled her already static hair. “| am hungry beyond belief. | didn’t have Breakfast because | was in such a hurry to see you today.” He said to her causing hayley to blush and I let them be.

| moved to set a pan on to the burner to heat up then fished out an ice cream scoop from the drawer.

Their chatter filled the kitchen while | reached for the batter and began dropping scoop fulls of it on to the heated pan and waited for the bubbles to form.

“If you like to see me so much why don’t we stay in the same house like a normal family?” Hayley proposed the same question to Dante and | could only think that that had been because she was unsatisfied with my response to it.

| fl*pped the pancakes over to reveal their perfect golden colour before darting my eyes over to Dante who had his forearms propped against the marble counter.

“That is a good question. Dante said a bit hesitant and | knew that he was buying time to think of something. “I think it’s because we are a unique family. Different doesn’t always mean bad, Hayley.” He explained carefully and she nodded seeming to like his analogy more.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Unique. | like that.” She said with an affirming nod of her head.

“Now, tell me. He winked at Hayley. “Have you thought of any thing you would like to do today?” Dante asked with every intention to make her every wish come true.

| loved that for Hayley. | loved that she was getting a true sense of father love and spoils and she was over all a happier child but | felt a little left out and unable to have my daughter to myself for even a Saturday morning breakfast.
