Chapter 116
Are you sure you want to do this?” Keane asked, making sure she wasn’t pushing herself too hard.
Smiles nods, “Yes!” She said with all certainty.
They are set to leave, but Fiona isn’t back yet. Smiles knows it’s not right to leave without saying goodbye but she isn’t ready to stay any longer away from Keane.
Based on what the maid said, Fiona will be coming back in a day or two and that’s a lot of time to waste doing nothing.
“You look conflicted” Keane didn’t bid around the bush, he could tell her so much wish to go yet something was holding her back.
“Mom, she isn’t home and I need to inform her” Skiles explained, resting her butts on the sofa.
“I’d advise we wait for her to return” Keane proposed knowing how unfair it would be for him to take them away just like that.
“I’d love to but she won’t be coming anytime soon…Not today ” Smiles cries with no tears, covering her head with her palms.
” No stress then, leave her a message. ” Keane walks to her side,” maybe a note or message…Anyone”
Smiles’s face sparkles, “great idea, god! Why didn’t I think of this?” She groans, chuckling.
“That’s why you need me, to help you out with your stress and difficulties. And your desires too” Keane leans forward and caresses her neck with the tip of his nose.
“Mmm, great talk but no, thank you!” Smiles laughs, stands up from her seat, and walks outside.
“Let’s get going, I really can’t wait to see Grandma and Grandpa again,” She said in her voice.
She feels so excited to see Grandma Shiley again after a long time. She can’t quite remember all her dottings and sweet praises. It meant more to her, only now she sees it.
With a smile, Keane follows her behind. They entered the car and left.
They arrived at the airport in no time, Keane’s royal blue color private jet was already waiting for them.
“Do you win this, papa?” Kate asked arms circled around Keane’s neck as she stared at the beautiful large yet beautiful jet before her.
Keane hums in response, “it’s all yours” he informs, placing the little girl on her feet.
Excited, Kate rushed to her brother and pulled on him, “Papa says it’s ours, let’s go ride together” She was so happy, that Nate followed her behind. Both ran and climbed on it, giggling.
“Be careful, don’t run too fast” Smiles said over her voice, concerned and worried they might trip and fall.
The duo didn’t pay any attention to what their mother was saying as they continued running.
Keane hugged Smiles from behind, “Cool down, they are big enough to watch out for themselves” he teased, sniffing her hair and kissing it.
“That face shouldn’t be growing, I want to see it glow” He whispers into her ears.
” So cheesy with your words, lucky you have met ya match,” Smiles said, chuckling as she made her way to the jet.
Kate sat back on the white seat ever so comfortably, eyes staring at the beautiful view of LA city.
“Are we going to come back here sometime?” She asked. She has been wondering what will be of her friends when she’s gone.
It was sudden and she didn’t get the time to tell them goodbye. It saddens her to know, she will miss them.
“Yes, mama says we will come and visit Grandma sometimes” Nate responded, he was busily playing his game when he heard his sister ask and he didn’t mind responding.
Nate’s gaze falls on Keane and Smiles, they sit so close to each other as Smiles leans on his shoulder, smiling.
Nate always loves spending time playing his video game but not this time, he climbs down and walks to them.
With no words, he pushed Keane to the side creating space in-between them. He climbs and makes himself comfortable, pulls Smiles down so she can lie her head on his shoulder instead.
Smiles stares at Keane with an apology gaze, she pulls the little boy even closer, enjoying his tiny warm self.
Keane didn’t know if he should laugh or cry, just when he was about to complain, Kate caught his attention.
With a smile, he carries her and lets her lie in his arms. If Nate refuses for him to be with Smiles, then at least, he will be with her little self.
“Yet to start!” Smiles murmurs, caressing Nate’s hair.
While the plane flew above the sky, the family had happy times with each other.
The son for the mother and the daughter for the father. Nate will make sure to keep his mom’s hands tangled around him so she won’t touch his dad.
They finally arrived in New York after four hours and fifty-seven minutes of sitting. Keane’s car was already waiting for them, and their ride home was short and less noisy because the two adorable little geniuses were sleeping.
The car slowed down before the big white mansion, Smiles stepped out with Nate in her arms. The sun was preparing to settle for the day but the beauty of the house stayed in its usually attractive and shiny state.
Tears rolled down her cheek, no words could be formed as she stared at the big house.
Keane’s hand circles his left hand around her shoulder, he knows what she’s thinking. It’s kind of hilarious but it’s their most beautiful of treasure moments, they all give them a wonderful love story.
“Remember when I came here for the first time?” Smiles asked, wiping away her tears. ” You were here when I arrived with Derrick” She chuckles at the realization Keane wasn’t at home. It was Derrick who brought her home.
“I thought it would be just for a year and after that, I will never have anything to do with you. I’d promised myself never to love you or have no string of attraction” She smiles and turns to him. “But I was wrong, I felt for you the same day we had our contract signed and you asked me never to love you,” she said, remembering how hot he was that day, with only his towel on, damp hair falling to his face and his perfect body figure… “Those eyes of yours left me drowning in them, but it is funny how I never seem to have the voice to scream out loud and call for help… “She smiles at the memories of her gazing into those beautiful sets of gray eyes unable to look away… “I’m happy I didn’t call for help, I never needed saving”
Keane didn’t know why but hearing her confess made his heart flutter in his chest, he so much wished to kiss her and tell her she had always been the one.
“When I left for the first time, I thought it was over. I knew there was no way I could survive without you but I had to let go, to see if I could paddle myself in the boat I had made but I couldn’t. I had become so attached that it felt like I would die if I attempted to stay away.” Her smile was dreamy yet lovely.” But you came for me, the last thing I would have thought of. You brought me back to this mansion, your home and you made it mine too. Just like a king, you made me your queen and your forever, being your queen, you became my King and my eternal. ”
“It was wonderful but life has a lot to show us, but that didn’t stop us from being together. For the third time, I’m standing before this same mansion, your home, my home but I’m no longer alone and neither am I with you… we are standing together with our babies, our bundle of joy… the evidence of our love” Smiles didn’t she was already crying.
Keane caresses her hair, and places a light kiss on her lips.”I’ve never been left speechless in my entire life until I saw you at the bar, I guess I fell for you there and then but refused to accept it… but now, I know better. ” He leads her into the mansion. Unlike the last time, he was with family, a completely happy family.
It was indeed a happy family but the father and son duo still have some scores to settle, and neither of them are willing to lose to the other, neither do they want to share… The decision on who wins and who loses is based on them.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
