Mr. President You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets

“Has Marissa arrived yet?” Delinda asked Kate who was in the mood to destroy the office. Last evening she wanted to meet Mr. Sinclair but he had left early. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Though Dean assured her that her meeting was scheduled with the president, Kate wanted to get done with it. 

All this impatience had made her grumpy like some elderly lady. 

“Kate. Has Marissa arrived yet?” Delinda asked her again when out of nowhere Shang Chi appeared and sat on one of the seats. 

“I’m not Marissa’s secretary, Delinda. What’s your problem? Stop grinding me with such silly questions,” Kate snapped at her and took out a compact mirror from her purse. 

“I’m sorry if I spoiled your morning. I really need to talk to Marissa. It’s urgent,” Kate suppressed a yawn and squeezed her eyes. Last night Amir made wild love to her keeping her awake most of the night. 

At last, she decided to bless Delinda with a fake smile, “Marissa won’t come to office that easily. Didn’t you see how she is allowed to come late or take an off? We have hardly completed ten working days and she has already availed the relief and became our in charge too.” She then rested her cheek on the table, “there is something fishy going on.” 

Taking long strides, Marissa came inside and placed her bag on the table, “Good morning, everyone,” she greeted her friends. 

cheerfully when she caught the sullen look on Delinda’s face.

“Del. You look upset,” Delinda’s eyes welled up with tears, “my son. He has been complaining of stomach pain since last night and I need to take him to the hospital. Marissa please I need to go.” 

Kate rolled her eyes, “Here we go again!” 

Marissa didn’t pay any attention to her and hugged Delinda, “Is your son accompanied by someone? How old is he?” 

“He is just seven. No one is with him, I’m a single mother.” 

Marissa felt her heart being squeezed by someone. She knew this pain, she had experienced it all as a single mom. 

She knew the struggles. 

“You go to your son and please don’t leave him all alone next time,” she wanted to ask if he used to go to some school, but this was not the time for such questions. 

“Marissa. I might not come on time. The hospital I usually go to is quite crowded,” Marissa’s heart went out to the mom. At least she had Sophie and Flint with her. 

Delinda seemed all by herself. 

“Take an off, Delinda. I’ll contact you on your phone. Secondly…” she grabbed her purse and took out a card, “go to this Kanderton hospital and meet this doctor. He is basically a dentist and can talk to someone over there,” Delinda had gratitude in her eyes. Her lips were pursed tightly to hold herself from crying. 

“Please go, I’ll ask Dean to make the call to this hospital,” She patted Delinda’s shoulders and pushed her away, “Now go.” 

Delinda quickly left the room and Kate eyed Marissa suspiciously,

“You were acting as if you own Kanderton Hospital. And then look at you. Planning to ask Dean to talk to the hospital staff? Ha! Let me remind you. You are below him in the position… not the vice. 

versa. 

At this time, Marissa didn’t want to engage in any useless debate. with her, so she picked up her purse and went out searching for 

Dean. 

Kate found Shang Chi’s eyes on the door where Marissa just left. 

“Hey!” she snapped her fingers before his face, “Mark my words. She is not what she looks or portrays. But in the future when you’ll come to know then don’t complain, I didn’t warn you.” 

Shang Chi just chuckled at Kate’s boasting, “Why are you jealous of her by the way… Kate? What has she done to you?” 

That made Kate furious, “Excuse me. Jealous? Of Marissa Aaron? I’m sorry but let me tell you this. By evening there might be an announcement that I’m the new. 

charge of the event.” 

Shang–chi threw back his head and laughed hard, “Really? Why do you think Rafael Sinclair will do that? Did he drop his brain. somewhere? Ha–ha,” Kate didn’t like it when she saw Shang–chi making fun of her. 

Amir was right. I shouldn’t share it with anyone before Mr. Sinclair makes the official announcement. 

She thought with a careless shrug and got up to have a cup of coffee. She needed some caffeine in her system.

“Who is it?” Rafael asked Dean when his phone started ringing that was placed on the desk. 

“It’s Ms. Aaron. Maybe she wants guidance in something as a new 

head,” Dean showed his boss the caller ID. 

“Go out. See what she needs,” Joseph asked him busily and bent on the papers placed near him. 

“Or maybe call her inside,” Rafael tried to sound casual but, in all honesty, he had been waiting to meet her. 

“Marissa! I’m in the president’s office. Get in,” Rafael eyed hist assistant for a minute before shooting a question that had started bugging him, 

“Shouldn’t you be calling her Ms. Aaron?” he sensed his hesitation and leaned forward to say something sternly when Marissa stepped inside. 

“Dean. Ms. Delinda’s son is very sick, and I’ve asked her to take him to the Kanderton hospital. Though she is a very strong woman, today she seemed shaken. 

Her face was like an open book showing every sign of distress. 

“Yesterday, you talked to someone to facilitate me. Can you do it again today?” 

Before Dean could answer her, the president spoke from his seat, “Sure. That will be done.” 

Marissa didn’t acknowledge his presence when she heard hist clipped tone. Right now, the only thing on her mind was Ms. Delinda’s son who had no one to stay with him.

Rafael was observing her face, while he rested his head on his scat, “What do you suggest, Ms. Aaron? Should I send someone to stay there with Ms. Delinda?” 

Crap! He didn’t even remember who Ms. Delinda was. 

“If that’s possible then yes, sir. Please. She doesn’t have anyone around,” The agony in her voice could be felt by every person sitting there. 

“No mother should be left alone to fight the fate of her child, sir.” Though she had muttered it under her breath, everyone heard her. 

After a few minutes of silence, Rafael spoke again, “Alright, Ms. Aaron. There is a chauffeur and a car ready for you. Please stay with your friend. M Sin will bear all the financial responsibilities of 

the treatment.”
