Chapter 53
Damien entered the Villa as Ma’am Beatrice hurried to his side.
“Where are they?” He asked.
“They cried so much that they fell asleep” Ma’am Beatrice replied as she couldn’t help but get worried about the kids.
They cried so much but Madame didn’t even bother to come out and look at the kids.
“Did they tell you what happened?” Damien asked.
“They won’t say anything and kept crying, I tried to ask Madame but she has already fallen asleep” Ma’am Beatrice reported.
“Ok” Damien said and made his way to the kids room.
He entered the room and saw the kids that huddled together and fell asleep but looking at their posture, one could see that they were uncomfortable.
Damien sighed slightly as he separated them and placed them in a more comfortable position.
“Daddy” Dillan woke up and looked at him.
“You don’t have to wake up, continue with your sleep” Damien rubbed his hair and made to cover the duvet as Delanie also woke them.
Of course, she was different from Dillan who was calm. The moment she opened her eyes, she Started crying all over again.
“Daddy” She called out in tears.
“Don’t cry” Damien carried her in his arms as the tears suddenly stopped and her voice was no longer heard.
After about 10 minutes, Damien faced the two kids in front of him.
“Tell me the truth! What happened?!” He asked them after he was sure that he has calmed down their emotions.
“Mummy doesn’t want us again” Delanie pouted her lips and looked like she was going to cry all over again.
Damien glared at her coldly as she pursed her lips she tried not to cry.
“It’s our fault” Dillan bowed his head as he spoke.
“You did something wrong?” Damien asked.
“Yes. Great Grandma…” just before Dillan could continue, Damien’s phone rang.
He stood up and moved aside to pick the call.
“Hello, Grandma” Damien’s always cold face softened slightly as he saw the caller.
“I picked the kids up from school and they are indeed cute. Even Scarlett is do beautiful, don’t forget to bring them to my birthday party” Grandma Malcolm said excitedly.
“Grandma, you picked them from school?”
“Yes, I spoke to the principal and took them with me. Scarlett came later to pick them up. Is there any problem?” She nodded at his words.
“Ok. I will bring them for your birthday” Damien replied and hung up the call.
He turned around and faced the kids all over again.
“You left the school with your Great Grand mother?” He asked them.
“Yes”
“Did you call your mother or Me?” He asked again.
“No. Sorry” They both of the apologized.
“You know that you dud something wrong?” Damien looked at them sternly.
“Dad I’m sorry” Delanie muttered.
“Good. Tell me one reason why you didn’t make a call, or don’t you have a communication method!” Damien asked as he could understand while Scarlett scolded them.
“We have, Mom gave us a watch that can alert her immediately we press a button and you gave us a bracelet that can call you after he touch the red button” Dillan bowed his head as he spoke.
“Then why didn’t you call one of us? What if the person that came was a bad person. Do you know how worried your mom will be?” Damien asked sternly as the two looked like they were going to cry.
Ma’am Beatrice that came to call them out for lunch couldn’t help but retreat.
“Seems like the kids have done something really bad this time around” She muttered.
“We are sorry” They apologized.
“You should go and have lunch and you can talk about your punishment. And make sure not to cry, if not the punishment will only increase” Damien said and stood up leaving the room.
He stopped in front of Scarlett’s room and knocked on the door.
“Knock knock!” He knocked for the second time but no one opened the door.
“Knock knock” He knocked again ahd this time the door opened.
“Did I disturb your rest?” He asked the girl that was rubbing her eyes.
“Is ok, you can come in” Scarlett muttered and took a step, because of how sleepy she felt she staggered as Damien hurriedly caught her.
She pushed him away and sat on the bed.
“Is there anything you are here for?” She raised her brows and asked him.
“I’m sorry for what happened today” He apologized.
“Is it about your Grandma?” She asked.
“Yes”
“Is ok. I was never angry, I was just frustrated and tired at how they kids caused me to be worried” She muttered as she sighed.
“But it’s ok, After sleeping for so long I don’t feel angry again and i also don’t feel angry for your annoyance this morning” She rolled her eyes but saw Damien only staring at her without saying any other thing.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” She raised her brows.
“Come down for lunch, I’m going back to the company” He said and stood up.
“Why did you come back in the first place, Don’t tell me you came back to apologize?” She raised her brows and felt that the whole situation was funny.
“Ma’am Beatrice called and told me that the kids were crying” He replied.
“So you left work and came back home because of it” She felt amused and surprised.
“Yes” Listening to him Scarlett felt her heart sting.
“They are not even your kids, why do you care so much about them” She muttered.
“It’s my responsibility, You are my wife and they are my Children” He replied coldly but with a very serious tone.
“I’m leaving” He said and walked towards the door.
“Thank you!” Scarlett’s voice came from behind him.
“Thank you for everything” Her sincere voice came over.
“Is ok. Go down for Lunch” He reminded her and left the room.
The moment he left Scarlett touched her beating.
“Why is it beating so fast? Should I see a doctor?” Just after she finished speaking her phone rang.
“I’ve booked your appointment with the psychologist, make sure you go!” Lisa’s message came through.
~”Yes ma’am ” She replied the message and opened the door.
Just as she opened the door, she saw her little babies standing in front of the door with confused faces.
“Why are you here?” She squatted and asked while rubbing their head.
“Mummy” Delanie jumped into her arms with tears in her eyes.
“Don’t cry. I’m not angry anymore” She consoled them and patted their backs.
“I’m sorry” Dillan muttered as Scarlett nodded.
“Is ok. Just know what to do next time” After consoling the kids and they looked as lively as before
Scarlett made her way to the dinning for Lunch.
Just before she sat down, she saw Aiden Numero coming in with flower bouquet.
“Master asked me to give this to you?” Aiden handed the bouquet of over.
“Me? Didn’t he just leave now?”
“I will leave first” After handing it over, He turned and left.
“Why didn’t dad also give me flowers?” Delanie looked at the flowers and pouted her lips.
“When you grow you will receive yours” Scarlett glared at her with a smile as she looked at the write up.
“Sorry about this morning” it was simple and concise.
Scarlett laughed out amused.
“Ok. Apology accepted” She muttered to herself and returned to her room to place the flowers somewhere special.
“Do you think mom is strange? She doesn’t smile like this to other people except us” Delanie wrinkled her face.
“Well, Mom is very happy” Dillan muttered with a slight smile
He hopes she will always be happy like this.
The decision he made wasn’t bad after all
