GETTING THE HEART OF THE CEO

The kids shared their adventures in Florence with Kyle, with Luna being particularly talkative. After a few minutes, two cheerful children around 10 years old entered the room, saying in unison:

“Good afternoon!”

Every child’s eyes focused on the blonde sitting on the sofa. They looked at each other and smiled before running to hug her. Lindsey didn’t recognize the children and was startled by the warm embrace from each one. Nonetheless, she accepted it gladly while glancing at Kyle, seeking an explanation.

“Do you remember me, Lin? Or can I call you Mom?” said a playful Lucia, separating from the hug.

“Oh, my God, you’ve grown, Lucia, and changed. Those mischievous eyes give you away,” Lindsey whispered as she observed the girl with brown eyes, then shifted her gaze to the blonde.

“Liam! You’re quite the charmer,” her eyes reflected the emotion of seeing the children, and any doubts in her mind disappeared. A smile adorned her face.

“Of course, you can call her Mom! She’s the only one you’re going to meet,” intervened Kyle, who didn’t lose sight of the scene.

Lindsey glared at Kyle. Then, she turned her gaze back to the children and responded.

“You can call me whatever you want. If you want me to be your mom, I will be. Now, go and meet your little siblings.”

“What siblings?” Liam exclaimed, not having noticed the presence of three children on his father.

“The ones I have in my arms,” Kyle proudly replied.

The two children walked toward their father, and Lucia was the first to speak.

“They are so cute! They look like you, Dad!” She kissed and hugged Lucas affectionately, who tried to shake her off. “Hello beautiful, I’m Lucia, your older sister.”

“Can you stop being so sweet?” replied Lucas, trying to push her away.

The adults exchanged glances and suppressed their laughter. Liam had already greeted the other two children.

“He’s a grump. Don’t mind him, Lucia,” he continued with a sweet voice. “I’m Luna, the eldest of the three.”

“For a few seconds, little sister! My name is Leno,” he allowed Lucia to pamper him.

“And my handsome boy, what’s your name?” she asked, looking at Lucas, who had freed himself and run to his mother.

“I’m Lucas! And I don’t like those overly sweet gestures,” he said with narrowed eyes.

“Well, you’ll have to get used to that and much more with me because I’m going to spoil you, little brother,” she said playfully and excitedly. Now, she would finally have a complete family.

“Grandparents! Can you stay with the kids while I go to the office with Lin? We have a lot to talk about,” Kyle asked calmly.

“Of course, dear. I’ll go ahead with the children to feed them; they must be hungry,” Sussan replied.

“Yes, Grandma, I’m hungry!” Leno exclaimed.

“Thank you, Sussan. Luna is the most difficult one when it comes to eating. If she gives you trouble, you can come and get me, and I’ll help you with them,” Lindsey said.

“Don’t worry, dear. The staff will assist me with them.”

Lindsey approached her little ones and bent down.

“Behave well with your grandparents. Mom and Dad have to talk,” she gave a kiss on the forehead to each of them, as well as to Lucia and Liam.

“Follow me, Lin,” Kyle said calmly, looking at her gently. The look of the arrogant and cruel man disappeared when he was with her and now with his children. He led her to the office, then took her hand to settle her on the couch.

Lindsey was insecure, nerves were consuming her; she didn’t know what would happen to her and her children. Everything had happened so quickly that there hadn’t been time to analyze the situation.

“Lin, I’m going to talk to you honestly from the depths of my soul. Please don’t interrupt me; just listen to me,” he positioned himself in front of her, looking into her eyes.

“Okay, I’m listening.”

“Since you left the mansion, my life was a mess. You’re right; I shouldn’t have entered that room and mixed those drinks. Since that moment, I haven’t touched even a hint of alcohol. I never imagined that this decision would change my life, and I would fall into a trap, leading me to lose the most beautiful thing that has entered my life. I don’t blame you for not telling me about the existence of my children. When I found out that everything was a lie and fell into Catrina’s trap, I questioned myself. How could a man with a good nose for business and distrustful of people be deceived by a woman? As punishment to myself, I went to a hospital and had a vasectomy. Then, I hired a detective to find you, but it was unsuccessful. I always knew that my grandfather’s hands were involved in your disappearance.”

“But it wasn’t their fault, and neither was it Sussan’s. I asked them to keep the children away from you if you found out about them; I was hurt by what happened. Despite the resentment I had towards the man in front of me, I can’t deny that I’m still in love with him, just like the first time I saw him in that hotel room.”

“I ask you to give me a chance to make amends for the damage I caused you and to regain my family. As you can see, you won’t have a family of four anymore but one of seven.”

“How did Lucia and Liam come into your hands? It’s a beautiful gesture that you’ve provided a family home for those children.”

“One Saturday, I was thinking about you. I grabbed my car keys and drove without direction. When I realized it, I was in front of the orphanage. I got out and entered, observing the children playing happily, oblivious to their problems. Lucia approached me; you know how intelligent that girl is, and along with Liam, they brought a few smiles to my face. From that moment, I began the adoption process, and for the past three years, they’ve been part of my life.”

Lindsey was moved by what she heard; tears rolled down her cheeks. She threw her arms around Kyle’s shoulders and buried her head in his neck. He sat her on his lap, enveloping her with his strong arms.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

They stayed like that for a few seconds until she pulled away and kissed him tenderly.

“Thank you for coming back to me and not putting up too many obstacles. Now let’s go get your things and the children’s to take to the mansion. Emilia is going to go crazy seeing the kids! Do Lucas and Leno sleep together or in separate rooms? Tomorrow, I’ll call the interior designer to decorate the kids’ rooms. Tell me what preferences they have?” Kyle spoke non-stop, leaving Lindsey surprised.

“Stop, Kyle! I know you’re excited, but we can’t move in with you.”

“Why not? You are my family, and I want you by my side,” he objected with eagerness in his words.
