Tales Of Love

Aurora stood up straight and walked up to him with a wiry smile. “What qualifications do you have to be the father of my kids? I can’t remember telling you I was pregnant while I was still the play thing”

Mia didn’t want the twin to witness their parents arguing. Aurora may be upset with President Axel but the fact remains he was their father and nothing can change that.

“Ralia, take the kids out for a walk within the premises for an hour” Mia Rowan Instructed her younger daughter.

“Ok mum” Ralia said and held their little hands and led them towards the door. As they passed by Santiago, Samantha waved at Santiago and called him Uncle.

Santiago would not take it when his own daughter called him an uncle. If he hadn’t known they were his kids, that is totally understandable. But haven known, he would not accept.

He smiled at her and bent himself to her height. He caressed her hair. His smile was contagious as Mia found herself smiling too. He smiled beautifully.

“Call me dad. I am you and Sam’s daddy”. He looked at Sam as well and saw him staring at him with a cold expression. He chuckled silently, this boy was indeed his son. He touched his chin , admiring his kids.

“Yes. I know you’re my daddy because one day I saw mummy looking at your picture and she…” Samantha had not yet completed her statement when Aurora’s voice overshadowed her tiny voice.

“Samantha!! Be good and follow your aunt” Aurora cautioned her. Samantha can be so annoying at times. Had she not stopped her she would have told Santiago she cried.

She actually cried that day:

When she saw Santiago’s picture as one of the richest CEOs in the magazine, her mother brought it home. She saw his cold handsome face, and couldn’t hide how much she missed him.

The only way she could express it was with tears. Samantha came to her and asked her why she was crying. She told her it was her daddy’s picture that made her shed tears of joy.

She didn’t know that the little girl did not believe her lies. Now she regretted pointing that picture to her that day.

Santiago was so excited at Samantha’s words. She doesn’t need to complete her statement, he already knew the end of it.

Samantha shut her mouth and waved at Santiago again before being led out by her aunt.

Santiago watched until the door was shut before looking back at Aurora. His smiles quickly disappeared and restored his facial appearance to its usual cold expression.

Mia took the opportunity that the both of them were quiet to chip in a few words. “President Axel, I don’t know when you and my daughter were lovers. Whatever you did to her will be resolved amongst you both. But what I have to say is that you are the father of my grandkids. DNA or not, their physical appearance have spoken for itself”

Aurora frowned at her mother’s words. She should have walked him out rather than say pleasant words to him.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Thank you aunt. I just want to spend some time with my kids. Is that too much to ask?” Santiago asked politely.

Before Mia could answer, Aurora spoke “In your dreams Santiago. I won’t let you come anywhere close to my children. And if you try to be funny, I’ll definitely get a restraining order against You” Aurora snapped at him.

That would be the last thing she will not allow him to have. She will not allow Santiago to be with her children. They were hers alone.

Santiago squinted.

Aurora had indeed changed. She was not the woman he used to know. Her fragile delicate heart had been made into a stone. “I am sorry aunt. But if that is what Aurora intends to do, then she left me no other option than to meet with her in court” Santiago said.

He bowed slightly to Mia and walked out. He took the elevator down. His face was icy cold. He got into his car and held the steering tightly. He was very angry as he sped off.

All his life, he had always gotten anything he wanted and no one ever told him no. But today, Aurora had created a dent on his record. He was not coming to see Aurora again.

As soon as Santiago left, the office became very quiet. Aurora’s eyes became moist. Why had Santiago become a stranger to her? This was the man she had been desiring to see and when she finally saw him, it’s the offense of the past that only blurred her sense of reasoning. She sank into her chair as the tears found their way down her cheeks.

Mia sat on the sofa and stared at the teary face of Aurora. She must have really missed him and when he came, she chased him away with her attitude. The things we bring upon ourselves are usually the hardest ones to bear.

She saw it in the young man’s eyes that he loves her and loves their kids as well. She doesn’t want Aurora to end up like her. Having a child and not being married to that child’s father. In the case of Aurora, it’s not just a child, they’re children.

“Why are you crying now?” Mia asked. Didn’t she just act like a woman of steel a while ago? Oh.. ho, only for her to start shedding tears?
