Chapter 5

  • Lucas
  • I am in the office. It was already 5 pm. I brought Luke here because I didn't have time for him. I always drowned myself to work.
  • Luke was with Rosaline, his nanny. She was guiding him to walk cause my baby was starting to learn to walk now. He needed protection in case he falls.
  • I was just finishing this paperwork and contracts. Leticia texted me that she is going to meet me here. She will introduce me to someone. I didn't know whom but I didn't care at all.
  • Some cheap girls... I guess.
  • After I finished my errands. I pressed the intercom and called Rosaline to bring Luke here.
  • A knocked echoed in my office and I told them to come in.
  • Rosaline came in with Luke in her arms.
  • "Let Luke walk up to me," I ordered. She nodded and guided Luke to step on the floor.
  • "Come to daddy, baby," I said softly.
  • Luke smiled slightly, walking towards me. He was about to reach me but he got out of balance.
  • “O-oh…”
  • I am still glad he reached me half of it.
  • I got up and went over to him then picked him up.
  • "How's my son doing?" I kissed his forehead and he clapped his little hands.
  • I knocked interrupt my bonding with my son.
  • Sabrina peeps at the door; I raised an eyebrow for her to continue.
  • "Sir, your sister is here." She informed and I just nodded while soothing Luke's back.
  • I heard my sister stilettos tapping on the floor becoming louder and louder.
  • She looked at me teasingly. "How are my dear brother and my baby Luke?" She asked sarcastically.
  • I looked at her but someone in her back caught my attention more. I cannot fully see her yet, Leticia was blocking her I knew it was a girl.
  • "What do you need? " I snapped not wanting to talk playfully.
  • I am tired.
  • "Your soon to be wife is here." She said and moved out of the way.
  • "You can take a sit," I said blankly.
  • I saw the girl had long black hair, Black eyes twinkling, and looking sexy as damn.
  • Did I think that? I shook my head quickly.
  • Darn.
  • "Girls are gold-digger. Remember Lucas? " I scolded myself inside.
  • "Stop drooling," Leticia said and winked at me.
  • "I did not." I huffed. ‘I just looked at her to be sure, she is decent.
  • Looks are deceiving.
  • "Sure you are not." She replied sarcastically while eyeing me you-are-.
  • "What do you want?" I snapped. She is not going to let this go if I did not stop.
  • She put her hands on her hips. "Yeah so... I am here to introduce to you, Aria. You are going to marry her tomorrow." She said straight to the point. I looked at the girl named Aria. She was looking down.
  • "Whatever." I dismissed.
  • "Don't be like that." She growled and I glared at her.
  • "What do you want me to do kneel down at her and thank her. Hell no!" I bursted out.
  • I heard her sighed, rolling her eyes on me, and whispered something to Aria.
  • Luke changed his position looking at them and clapped his hands.
  • "M…mo-mmy…" He squealed and clapped his hands. He rarely does this and the smile he was wearing was reaching up into his ears.
  • He really needs this.
  • "Hi, Luke." Aria's voice making me look at her unwantedly. A very heavenly voice of her.
  • Not bad.
  • "See," Leticia said and grinning at me. I rolled my eyes.
  • "Aria that is Luke's father. Lucas Wighten." She said, pointing at me.
  • I gave her a curt nod.
  • "Nice to meet you, can I hold Luke?" She said politely.
  • I nodded.
  • "Rosaline give Luke to her," I said sternly. Rosaline stood up and got Luke from me.
  • "Aria, that's Rosaline." She pointed to Rosaline. "Luke's nanny. In case you needed her, she is with you and will do what you said, " she added.
  • I huffed. My sister was really getting on my nerves. She is letting a girl rule my son's nanny.
  • Aria picked Luke from Rosaline and carried him in her arms. Luke giggled and smiled. I never knew my son could smile like this and for the person, I didn't know.
  • "M..mo-mmy," he spoke cutely. Aria cooed him and kissed his forehead.
  • Luke circled his arms to Aria's neck. She is really pretty.
  • "Aria, excuse us, we are just going to talk. Me and LUCAS." Leticia informed Aria and me, hardly saying my name.
  • She nodded and started to play again with Luke.
  • Leticia mouthed me "where". I mouthed her to “follow me”.
  • I stood up and walk past them. I could feel Aria stole a glance at me. I didn't turn to look at her. What for? She is like the girls who are in for money.
  • I walked to the conference room.
  • Once we enter, Leticia slammed the door shut.
  • "What?" I asked confusingly.
  • "Is she fine for you?"
  • "It's alright, I think she is good for my son," I said boringly.
  • "Good to know…get married tomorrow. She will stay at your house and she will not go to work. I already informed her about the things, she needed to do and not to do." She explained.
  • "I won't do anything further. It's already up to you, talk to her if any things you want to discuss like packing things or anything." She added.
  • I flexed my neck and stared at her.
  • "How much did you pay her? " I asked. I knew there is an exchange for this arrangement.
  • "I paid her father's debt." She said boringly like my tone.
  • See... I knew it from the start.
  • "Gold digger," I muttered under my breath.
  • "She is not and don't hurt her Lucas. I am warning you." She snapped seriously and I nodded irritated. "I am not messing around with you."
  • I loosen my tie and opened the two buttons of my suit.
  • "Fine, anything else?"
  • She shook her head no and I nodded.
  • "Let's go back."
  • We left the conference room and walked back to the office.
  • I heard Luke's baby laughs.
  • "You can go home and get ready for everything, after the event tomorrow. You will stay with me." I said harshly. I opened up my arms to get Luke but he hugged Aria tightly.
  • "Go to your daddy, Luke. Mommy will be back tomorrow." She said softly, kissing his forehead.
  • Thanked God. Luke let me pick him up. She is not that bad.
  • "I am going." She said softly and stood up.
  • "Let's go Aria. Let's party first before you get married tomorrow " Leticia said, changing the mood.
  • She already planned again.
  • "Bye brother and bye Luke. " She walked and kissed Luke's cheeks.
  • I nodded at them and they left in no time.
  • I sat on my swivel chair.
  • "Are you happy baby Luke? You have a mommy already." I asked my baby.
  • He smiled in return and clapped his small hands.
  • "Sir, Luke needs his milk. " Rosaline reminded and I offered my hand for her to give me Luke's bottled milk.
  • I laid down Luke in my arms and he started sucking his bottled milk. He never experienced breast milk.
  • I ran my thumb through his forehead lulling him to sleep.
