Elizabeth woke up at seven-forty and she shook her dad. Andel opened his eyes and then he goes back to sleep while hugging Ellen.

"Daddy." She whispered.

​​

"Hmm?"

"Isn't it a shopping appointment?"

"Sorry, sweetie but daddy had loads of work."

Elizabeth pouted.

"How about tomorrow?" He smiled at her. "But later tonight, you need to sleep alone or sleep with your sister. Mommy and I need to work on something tonight."

Elizabeth thought for a while.

"You promise tomorrow?"

"Yes, I promise."

"You'll buy anything I want?"

"Yes, I promise." He winked. "But you also have to promise that you will need to sleep in your room without mommy, okay?"

Elizabeth creased her brows.

"Okay. Deal." She slipped off from bed. "I'll just wake up, Asher for my breakfast."

"Okay, bye, sweetie." Andel grinned as Elizabeth left. He gently pushed his boxers and then he caressed Ellen between her legs. She's still sleeping and maybe tired because he indeed took her in the bed from behind while Elizabeth is sleeping. "Baby girl," he murmured.

"Hmm," Ellen hummed.

"Lizzi is gone." He said and he checked the tablet as Elizabeth went to her brother's room to wake him up and then next to her sister's room.

He took the tablet and locked the door. He turned on some sexy music and Ellen barely open her eyes.

"I'll just go down there, okay?"

"Okay," Ellen mumbled, her mind is half asleep.

After that morning sex that Andel always wanted, he finally washed his face and brush his teeth and go to the gym to do his usual work out. Then, he took a bath. After the bath, he found her still in bed. He threw away the towel and he pulled the duvet. She almost caught it and she frowned at him.

"Baby girl, it's already nine."

"I'm tired." She mumbled.

"Choose a position." He grinned at her. She took the tablet and gave it to him. He rolled the dice in the tablet for a sex position and he grinned. "I think I need to tie you."

Ellen smiled and Andel took out the cuff from the poster bed that he secretly installed and then he cuffs her wrists and then ankles.

"I'll make this quick and hard and we need to get up."

"I'm lazy, Andel," Ellen mumbled. Andel bent down and kissed her lips. "I think I can't go to a restaurant today."

"No one is lazy with this." He rubbed her, and just do it there crazily with his wife.

After that, they had their breakfast and he went back on working. He saved the record and he left the house as he drove to Dmitri's house just nearby. He soon reached the house and the first thing he saw is Dean playing with their pets. He honks his car and Dean waved at him.

He stepped out the car and a butler came to greet him.

"Hi, Dmitri?"

"He's in his study, sir."

"Okay!" He followed the butler and then he waved at Christian. He's busy with his laptop and paperwork in the coffee table with Demi.

"Hi, Uncle!" Demi waved.

"Hi, Auntie." Andel winked at her and Demi dropped her smile and somehow, she looked like a psychopath. "Sorry!"

He knocked on the door and after he got permission to enter, he entered and stopped.

"Did I interrupt something?" Andel asked as he looked at Agatha kneeling on the floor. Dmitri looked at Agatha and back to Andel.

"I just dropped my pen, dummy," Dmitri said. Agatha laughed and lifted the fountain pen. Then, she kissed Dmitri's lips passionately.

"I'll just check on the kids," Agatha told and she patted Andel. "Too much for porn, huh," Agatha teased. He laughed and after Agatha left, he put a small storage drive in front of him.

"Are these your compilation of porn?" Dmitri asked. Andel laughed.

"No, dummy. I don't share my porn." He shook his head.

"Okay. Got it."

"It's also encrypted." He winked.

"What is this?" Dmitri asked as he plugged it to his computer.

"Your future."

Athena drove her SUV to Wilson's Residence. It's a long driveway to the mansion and there, she saw beautiful Zavannah wearing the usual princess dress that her father set up for her. The girl had compilations of tailored dresses from Wilson's tailoring shop back in London. She bought expensive pins for her. Vannah waited until she parked her car. She jumped in excitement and Moira came to greet her.

"Hi, Aunt Moira." She embraced her and then she slipped off from Moira and kissed Zavannah's cheek.

"What did you bought me?" Zavannah asked.

Athena smiled and lifted the paper bag.

"Wow!" She took it and Moira smiled.

"You kept spoiling the girls."

"Well, they are adorable."

"Let's go to her playhouse," Moira said and she followed them to the garden where Alanis build a playhouse for Zavannah, it's almost like a duplex and it was designed into a small castle, but an adult could get in and everything around is toys and princess stuff.

Zavanna put it on her small table that is fit for her and then she took out the boxes one by one. She said that she loves the flowers and butterflies, so she bought one for her including a tiara. Zavanna squirmed and she hugged Athena tightly.

"Thank you! Thank you! I have an addition to my collection."

"You are always welcome." She said and let Zavannah checked it all. She sat on the small couch and Moira too.

"So, you seemed to be depressed or something."

"It's just—nothing." She said.

"You know, you could tell me anything about heartbreaks." Moira shrugged.

Athena stopped. Moira could read her. She showed her phone and the last massage to Xavier.

"He never replies to me. I re-read every conversation thinking that I might've said something wrong."

Moira nodded and checked the settings and others.

"This is called ignore," Moira told. "He's been able to receive your messages, but he can't see it. It's the same with blocked numbers, but this will go directly to spam or junk.

"Hmm. I think, he labeled my name as unimportant." She shrugged. "Then, just two weeks ago, in Los Angeles, I saw him with someone. The girl kissed him, and they went to a sex toy shop. Then, when he saw me, he ran after me."

"Oh, that's something." Moira creased her brows. "But you know, there is part of that, that he's just playing on you. He ignored the messages and you'll think that he's busy. Which indeed he's busy with someone else… I think you should've just talked to him."

"I don't want to talk to him."

"But you feel uneasy. You feel sad. You have lots of questions and you'll feel very not in peace." Moira told.

"It's too late. I have to forget him."

"What if you'll cross again with him?" Moira smiled. Athena isn't into it anymore. But she indeed had lots of questions.

"Well, we'll only see about that." Athena smiled tightly. "I need to go and visit Elizabeth."

"Yeah, sure." Moira nodded. "You sure don't want to eat or drink?"

"I'm fine."

"Athena, we have a shopping appointment tomorrow. Do you wanna come?" Zavannah asked.

"Well, I'll be busy preparing for school."

"We will buy a gift for Demi." She pouted. "It'll be her birthday in two days."

Athena almost forgot about that.

"Okay, I'll set it then. Who else are we going with?"

"With, dad, Uncle Andel, Lizzi, Aria and Carter, and Levi. I think Odin and Esme will be with us too." She smiled with her little teeth.

"Hmm, I'll set that up. I'll get ready and I'll meet you guys at the mall."

"Sure! I'll text you." Zavannah told.

"Okay." Athena kissed Zavannah's cheek and she waved and left.

She is walking to her car and she also saw Kade playing an archer with Levi.

"Athena!"

She stopped and turned to Alanis while he's holding a big box.

"Mr. Wilson,"

"You are going to Lizzi's house?" He asked.

"Yes."

"Well, I just got a newly tailored dress for her. One is for their shopping appointment tomorrow and the other one is for Demi's party."

"Great." Athena smiled. Even Alanis spoiled Lizzi.

"Well, we only have two little princesses to spoil for a while." Alanis winked.

"You are right. I'll deliver it to Lizzi and send you the receipt." She winked.

"Thank you."

Athena drove her car to Elizabeth's. It takes two hours to get there but she didn't care about the time. All she wanted to do is just deliver the stuff and drive and drive, so she'll stop thinking about him. From the empty highway, on the way to the other town, she stopped on the side of the road and she exhaled as she leaned on her seat and stared at nowhere for a while.

She thought about a lot of things. Xavier's expression and how he ran after her.

What if someone touched his phone?

What if he's not cheating on me?

He should've called after that incident, but she never received a call.

"Athena, let me explain," Xavier said that. So, there is something to explain then. Athena didn't know anything now.
