Chapter 51

• Amber was in deep thoughts, does that mean he had been referring to her all this while. "Don't you see? He was indirectly referring to you, that man likes you" Sophia answered her question, Amber was still in doubt though and Sophia noticed this through her facial reaction. Sophia put her hand on Amber's shoulder making Amber turn to look at her as she speaks,"Listen girl, if you are still feeling insecure that he might not like you or having doubts that he might not accept the children, why don't you give it a try this one time? Why don't you open up your heart and learn to like him or reciprocate his feelings first without including the children in the story, once you are finally sure that he likes you so much to let you go, then you can bring the kids into the picture, try that first okay?" "And what if it doesn't work out the way you planned it?" Amber asked Sophia who rolled her eyes at the question,"Just be positive Amber, there is definitely no harm in trying anyway, besides isn't he fond of Jenna anyway, the young kid has charmed her way into his heart already so he will be very glad to find out Jenna is actually his daughter! She might even be the reason why he wouldn't get mad at you". Amber smiled, Jenna had indeed charmed her way into his heart, it was pretty obvious that Xavier was fond of Jenna, she suddenly remembered her kids were still in school, she stood up immediately from the seat startling Sophia who asked her,"What?"
• Amber ignored her and checked her phone,"16:50?!" Oh no, the school she enrolled her kids in were pretty strict, they would surely hold her kids in the office, but why weren't they calling her up? She suddenly had a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach. Sophia suddenly realized why Amber was acting hastily, they were totally engrossed in their discussion that they forgot the kids were still in school! Amber grabbed her bag and rushed outside hailing a cab on the way.
