‘Am I really overthinking?’ he didn’t feel so, at least his guts and intuition weren’t ready to believe the same. “Anything serious about them about which I should be cautious?”

“Hmm. Don’t offend them, that’s all I would say. They have gotten together with their newfound sister so better stay away from her because if you end up getting on her bad side, you are enjoying the entire royal family’s wrath. Their pampering over her is a lot as we have heard.” Uncle Anderson told me.

But after hearing this, Javier’s lips were set into a thin line. He had an idea but it didn’t fit inside his brain so easily. “Have you seen their sister?” Javier enquired with slight curiosity and eagerness. Unfortunately, he received a shock from the other man, “She’s out of public life. Even her child is out. Who knows who is the father of her child but we have heard, they all are well pampered.”

‘And I would definitely like to be at a distance from both of them.’ He earned this point mentally. Javier and his uncle talked about more inventions in the ongoing business cycle and how he is managing his mother’s company.

But in the middle, his uncle took the conversation in the row to ask, “What about your second child, Javier?” Upon this, Javier lowered his head. He couldn’t say anything right now because that was a misconception in everyone’s head. A mistake he tried to hide but ended up not hiding because it is too hard to press down.

But his uncle didn’t say anything. He had already known Javier for a long time and how he didn’t like to talk about the child in his home. That child...Javier was indebted because everyone believed the child was really innocent. However, only if they knew the truth...

Sooner than they expected they arrived at the hotel which was selected for the meeting and their stay. He was followed by everyone until his uncle and grandfather decided to leave and told him twice that he needed to return to his maternal mansion once his work was done.

He bowed to both of them and then took Ariana to the hotel room. Firstly, he helped her in getting freshened up and then took his time to get tidy again. There, he had bent down to braid his daughter’s hair where she was holding her skirt softly.

.....

“Father, do you know great-grandpa was really happy to see me,” she spoke cheerfully and Javier nodded. “You see that the man is old and he likes to spend some time with kids. We have more kids at our other mansion and I will bring you there once I get free from work.”

“Hmm. I would love to play with other cousins too. This will be interesting.” When she found her braid was done, she turned around to face her father. “What about aunt and uncle?”

“Soon. They will be here very soon.” Just then their door was knocked and Ellen opened the door slightly to comment on Javier. “You have a meeting in a few minutes. Be ready because clients are going to show up in the conference room of the hotel.”

“Alright. Make them settle, I will come down.” Javier replied and Ellen closed the door to take his leave. On the other hand, Javier bent down on his knees and held his daughter’s shoulders firmly with his smile turning into a serious expression which made Ariana confused.

“Ariana, listen to daddy now. I have to go to work for a few hours. I will be back by the time of dinner. But for you, I have called your Aunt Hannah. She will assist you throughout your day and be a good child alright? If your aunt asks you to leave daddy....you do know what you have to say?”

“Obviously dad. How can I bear to leave you alone?” Ariana pressed her wide grin and subconsciously, Javier sighed. ‘She is getting more and more like Jennifer..’ day by day, her expression and actions are taken after her mother and it sometimes made him wonder if Jennifer was alive in the form of his daughter.

“Alright. But please be a good child, alright?” Javier again remembered and Ariana nodded her head. She knew her godmother loved her dearly since her mother isn’t there anymore. Her love was somewhat the same as that of others...but her heart couldn’t accept that because she wasn’t the one...

Very soon, they walked down the corridors and took the elevator. When Javier brought Ariana into the giant restaurant, he saw Hannah standing there. “Go Ari, I will come back soon.”

Ariana’s eyes caught the sight of her aunt and she ran towards her a lightning speed. Meanwhile, Hannah’s gaze softened and she welcomed Ariana with a big embrace, “Oh my child! Look how you have grown up! Hmm..those fluffy sweaters and these boots...aww my baby looks so good.”

“Huh! I was always good, Aunt!” Ariana boosted and Hannah chuckled “I can already say that. After all, you are our university belle’s child. How can our Ari not be beautiful?”

Subconsciously, Hannah raised the little girl in her arms and walked to the bakery section where she saw different cookies. When the duo was looking at the great sight, Ellen had already walked up to them.

Unfortunately, their attention wasn’t deviating from their hungry sight for a single moment. “Hmm..Ari, what do you eat, my love?”

“Something sweet?Maybe a pastry?” Ariana pouted her lips while pointing at a single chocolate bar but Hannah patted her head. “Sorry, my love but aunt can’t get you that. Do you know that your teeth can be at high risk because of sweets? Look for something else.”

At this time, Hannah managed Ariana for another meal, and that was when she felt goosebumps appearing on her skin when that husky voice brought some memories...

“Why have you been ignoring me for years, Hannah?”
