Planned Baby novel Chapter 54

“Mom, are you going to have a date with dad again this week?” Amelia asked excitedly.

I smile at her while caressing her cheeks. “Why honey?”

“I want to see mom and dad again on the news,” Amelia answered.

I furrowed. Is Hadley’s issue not yet settled in their school?

“Why?” I asked.

Amelia shrugged. “I just want to show it again to my classmate. They look so amazed at how you guys look on the news. They all said that you guys look perfect together. They finally know why I am this beautiful.”

Ulie and I chuckled.

“They also said that I’m handsome!” Alistair proudly said.

Amelia rolled her eyes. “They only said that out of pity.”

My eyes widen at Amelia’s answer. I didn't like what I just heard from her. Alistair is her twin brother. She should not treat his brother that way. This is not the only time that she did this. I need to discipline her now.

“Amelia apologize to your brother. You should not say that. You two are siblings. If you have a person who you can’t consider your enemy, not your competitors that is your brother. You two should be partners, not the other way around.” I told Amelia in a serious voice.

Ulie on the other hand is just silent. We both agreed that we will never meddle whenever one of us is trying to discipline the kids.

I can see that Alistair wants to defend his twin sister while Amelia's eyes welled up.

“We are all waiting Amelia Quinn.”

Amelia lowered her head. She looks at me and Ulie then last is her brother.

“I’m sorry Alistair. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just want to tease you.” Amelia said in a lower voice.

Alistair went to his sister and hug her. “It’s okay Lia! I will always forgive you. I love you!”

I smile at my children. Alistair is a sweet child. I hope that he stays the same until he grows u.

Amelia hugs back. “I love you too!”

Ulie holds my hand and squeezes it. He mouthed “You did great!”

In a while, Amelia went to me and hug me. “I’m sorry mommy.”

“Do you realize now what you did to your twin is wrong?” I asked her.

Amelia bit her lower lips and slowly nodded. I smile at her and hug her.

“As long as you realize that you are wrong and apologize. Mom will always forgive you. I love you, honey!” I said to her.

She smiled. I can see tears in her eyes. “I love you too mommy! Don’t be angry with me again!”

“I will never be angry at you. I only corrected you because I love you. If you care and love someone, you should correct him if you see that what he or she doing is wrong. In that way, you will bring out the best in them. Do you understand me?” I asked Amelia.

Amelia nodded and smile at me. “I understand mommy.”

I look at Alistair. “How about you Alistair?”

Alistair gave me a thumbs up. “I understand mom.”

“Ulie...”

Nick was bugging me since the day I encountered Hadley in Quen’s office.

If I’m not mistaken, Nick and Ulie became close when they partnered for LHI hotels but they already knew each other because they all stayed in America for quite some time.

“Yes, my Quinn?” Ulie responds but his eyes are on the road. He is driving me to my office.

This became our daily routine ever since Ulie and I became official.

“How much do you know about Nick?” I asked.

I saw Ulie frown and harden his grip on the steering wheel. Don’t tell me he is jealous?!

“Why are you interested in him?” Ulie asked.

“Oh please, Ulie stop with your jealousy! I never like Nick dramatically. You are the only man I ever love.” I told him.

I saw his face reddened which made me smile big. My love looks so cute when he blushed.

“Fine. But why are you asking about him? What is going on?”

I sighed. “When I was at Quen’s office, I met Hadley.”

Ulie looks shocked at what I said. He suddenly steps on he breaks off the car.

“Hey be careful!” I scolded him but he just ignores me.

“You met Hadley? What happens? What did she do to you? Are you okay? Did she hurt you?” Ulie asked full of concern.

I shook my head. “I’m okay, don’t worry. Quen was also there, he was able to protect me from her.” I assured him.

Uli sighed aloud. He looks relieved from what I said.

“What is she doing there? And why did you tell me this just now?” Ulie hissed.

I bit my lower lips. “Sorry. I thought that Kaela already told you.”
