The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex)

Chapter Twenty



Chapter Twenty

Tracy

I don't know why Alex is acting like this, when I opened the door and I saw him, I wanted to be strong

and push him away first, but when he pleaded my resolve softened.

I know Alex is proud, and I was very surprised when he dropped on his knees and pleaded, if I doubted

his intentions about our children before, him kneeling and pleading changed that.

When he talked to our children my heart melted, he had the children first at the chocolate, and then the

joy on their faces when they saw other gifts he bought for them.

This is the first gift Alex bought for them so I picked my phone and recorded their reactions as they

opened each bag, my bundles of joy gasped at each gift, and when they opened a bag and found kids

iPads in it they screamed so loud that I had to stop the video to correct them.

"Look mummy he got us iPads," Michelle said raising the pink one

"Yes he did sweetie, you should not scream like that next time okay?." I corrected sitting beside them

on the floor

"Okay, mommy." They replied

There were a lot of gifts, I knew I should not be surprised because I know now that Alex is very rich, but

then I couldn't help it.

"Mummy these are books," Micheal said dropping a bag in my lap, I opened it and they were novels my

favorite genre, not just novels, they were my favorite genre, mystery. I couldn't keep the smile off my

face, he bought something for me.

The doorbell rang and I went to get it, it was my sister in law and her children I forgot that we agreed to

make jam today if they had arrived 20 minutes before now she would have seen Alex and if she sees

Alex things would have gotten a little messy, thank God she didn't.

"Hi, Tracy!"

"How are you doing Rose, hello Williams, hello Charles." I greeted bending to hug the children.

"Hello, aunty Tracy." They greeted hugging me then they went inside.

I stood up to let Tiana in but she was giving me a weird look.

"What?, Come in," I said moving to the side to let her in.

"You called me Rose so I was wondering what you need me to help you with." She replied coming in, I

closed the door then I followed her

"No, I don't need anything," I replied taking her bags

"Really?."

"Yes really."

"Then tell me what you did." She said and I stiffened

"Nothing, I didn't do anything," I said quickly moving to the children, Micheal and Michelle were

showing Williams and Charlie some of their toys.

"Wow!, That's a lot of toys, was there a sale at the toy shop?"

"No."

"Then where did you get all this toy from? Is that an iPad?" She asked pointing at the pink iPad

"Yes it is my iPad aunty Tiana, a man bought it, he bought us ice cream too," Michelle said excitedly

"Oh, I see what is going on now," Tiana said turning to face me, I was really scared that my eyes

widened out of fear, I held my breath too

"You've decided to let another man into that heart, haven't you? I see he is rich, Tell me who is the

lucky man?"

"Stop it, Rose," I said releasing my breath slowly so she won't know I was holding it before.

"See?, You called me Rose again, I'm sure I'm right but I'd stop, for now, make sure you tell me about

him later." She said and I nodded. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Let's go make the jam now, do you have the ingredients?"

"Yup, cocoa powder, chocolate, butter, sugar, fresh strawberry, lemon juice, I have everything."

"Okay then, we'd make the chocolate jam, then the strawberry jam."

"Yeah, a jar each?" She asked and I nodded

I gave the children the ice cream and while they licked it we prepared the jam, when we finished we

cleaned up and we made lunch. We all ate and we cleaned up after lunch.

Michelle and Micheal gave Charles and Williams some of the toys Alex bought and I lent Tiana one of

the books Alex bought, we both agreed to discuss the books once we are done.

The children played some more while Tiana and I chatted, I told her about what Mrs. Bennett said and

how I'm planning on confronting her in church on Sunday.

"Don't do it, girl, it's not worth it." She said shaking her head and I sighed because I knew she was

saying the truth.

"I know, I just don't like it, I don't like that my children heard her saying that, Rose you believe me

right?"

"Of course I do, you said you didn't give birth to them out of wedlock and I'm sure you didn't, back then

when I was still dating your brother I remember you'd always talk about your wedding and all."

"Seriously I'm thankful that you are my sister in law," I said sincerely

"I'm glad you are my sister in law too."

We chatted some more and they left an hour later.

That night after dinner Alex called, I was not surprised he did because I knew he was going to.

"Hi Tracy"

"Hi"

"I just want to say thank you for letting me see my children."

"You are welcome."

"You are an amazing mother Tracy, you raised them well, they are cute and polite, our children are very

happy kids and I thank you very much for raising them well."

"Yeah," I said like his words didn't affect me, it felt nice that someone is acknowledging my efforts.

"I hope I can see them tomorrow."

"No"

"Oh, how about on Sunday?" He asked

"I don't know, I'd think about it."

"Please do, and yes Tracy, there is something else I'd like to request for, once again I'm thankful for

everything you've done for our kids, I appreciate you, but I'd like that I and my kids are closer, you said

it earlier that they asked of their father, that's why I thought if we all live together they would grow used

to me, what's I'm trying to say is how about you and the children move in with me?." He asked and my

jaw dropped.
