《The Billionaire's Proposal》Linda's Orphanage
Advertisement
"Are you ready?" I asked Daniel who was standing next to me.
He swallows the lump on his throat. "Y-Yeah."
I look at the familiar building standing in front of us. I take in a deep breathe and the hand interlocked with mine gives me a comforting squeeze. I look up to meet his blue eyes and he smiles down at me.
"Let's go get my nephew." Adrian stated before we escalate the front stairs. Adrian pressed the doorbell and the door swings open.
"Jane!" I look up to meet with a familiar pair of expresso colored eyes.
He wraps me into a tight hug and lifts me up in the air. "Hey Oscar."
He sets me down and beams a smile at me. He was grinning from ear to ear.
"Come in." He opens the door wider for us and we step inside. Memories filled my mind as my eyes wondered around the familiar building.
"Oscar, what's are you still doing here?" I ask a bit curious. "I thought you had left."
"I did but when I heard Linda had passed away I thought I come back. I was hoping to find you but Jennifer told me you had left." Oscar explains. "I was going to leave but Jennifer isn't like Linda. She's not very kind to the kids and so I decided to stay to help the kids deal with Jennifer."
"I never like her. Where is she anyway?" I ask.
Oscar smiles mischievously. "She received a call from the police office telling her she needed to go down to the station."
"You didn't." Oscar nods and I begin to laugh.
"It was Kennedy's birthday and she wouldn't let us have it if she was here so I did what I had to do." Oscar defends with an innocent shrug.
"You haven't changed one bit." I state as I playfully slap his arm.
Oscar smiles down at me. "You either."
Suddenly someone clears their throats and I turn to face Adrian. I almost forgot him and Daniel were here.
"Adrian, Daniel meet Oscar. He and I were best friends before I left the orphanage." I state.
Oscar throws his arm over my shoulder and pulls me closer to him causing Adrian's jaw to clench. "Jane and I were the greatest pranksters here. Most of our pranks were for Jennifer because she was a witch. Remember when we covered her in paint?"
I snicker at the memory. "One of our greatest pranks." Oscar and I high five each other.
"So who are your friends?" Oscar asks turning to look at Daniel and Adrian. I move out of Oscar's grip.
"Oscar meet Adrian and Daniel." I introduce. "My fiancé and future in law."
"Fiancé? Future in law?" Oscar asks with a raised eyebrow.
Adrian smirks as he wraps his arms around me possessively and kisses my forehead. "Yeah, Jane and I are getting married."
"Haven't you heard? It's been all over the news." Daniel adds playing along with his brother. "It's going to be the wedding of the century."

"News?" Oscar seemed more confused.
"Hi, I'm Daniel McKeller and this is my brother Adrian–."
"McKeller." Adrian finishes.
I roll my eyes at how childish these two are being. And this my friends is what happens when Adrian gets jealous.
"McKeller? As in McKeller Industries?" Oscar asks and they nod with smirks splattered on their faces.
"So Oscar have you found the guy of your dreams yet?" I ask causing their smirks to drop.
"G-Guy?" Daniel stutters.
"Yeah, I'm gay." Oscar states. They turn to me with blank looks as I tried my hardest not to laugh.
Oscar starts laughing and I join in. "You though I liked Jane?"
"Noo." Adrian and Daniel respond in unison.
Once our laughter died Oscar turned to look at me. "Wait, why are you guys here?"
I turn to Daniel and Adrian. "We came to fi-"
"Oscar!" Two different voices exclaimed.
"Noah ate my cupcake!" A little girl stated as she appeared from behind Oscar.
"No I didn't." A little boy with baby blue eyes, dirty blonde locks, and rosy cheeks stated although the frosting on his hand and mouths said other wise.
Daniel had his eyes on the little boy and they began to water. Adrian seemed to notice and his eyes widen as he saw the younger version of Daniel standing next to to Oscar.
"Noah," Oscar kneeled down to the two kids level. "The cupcakes are for after eat lunch. Now go back to the party room and don't fight."
"Okay." The two kids reply before walking back down the hall.
Oscar chuckles as the two kids walk away. "Those two are always fighting."
He turns his attention back to us and frowns when he sees all of us almost in tears.
"What's wrong?" He asks with knitted eyebrows.
I turn to look at him. "Oscar we came because I believe Daniel is Noah's dad."
"But Noah was put up for adoption." Oscar replies.
"By his mother not me." Daniel clarifies. "That woman made me believe she had a miscarriage and ruined my one chance at happiness which was my son."
"I mean you two do look alike." Oscar states.
"Noah is the spitting image of my brother." Adrian responds. "He has to be his son."
"Yeah but–"
"I made Noah a promise when he was a baby," I interfere. "That I would get him a family and that's what I am going to do. He deserves to know who his dad is and know that his dad does love him. Growing up with that doubt of 'did they love me' is uncanny we both know that."
Oscar nods understandingly. "We will need to take a DNA test and if he is your son then you can take him seeing as if you hadn't agreed to putting him up for adoption."
Daniel smiles as him gratefully. "I'm glad he was able to find his family like Jane did."
Oscar turns to me. "Wasn't your family dead?"
"No, someone took me away from them. They paid the doctor to lie that I was dead and I was brought here by that same person. I recently found my parents and got know my family. Results I have two younger sisters." I explain.

"I'm so happy for Jane," Oscar states. "I guess you leaving gave you the chance to find happiness."
I smile and turn to Adrian. "It did."
"Would you mind if we take Noah to do the DNA test?" Adrian asks. "The doctor will be able to give us the results today."
Oscar nods. "I'll go get him for you."
"Thank you," Daniel states. "Also thank you two for helping me find my son."
"No problem." Adrian and I answer.
Oscar comes out with Noah. "Hi, I'm Noah."
We smile at him. "I'm Daniel. This is my brother Adrian and his fiancé Jane."
"We are are going to take you out." Adrian states. "Is that alright with you?"
Noah nods with a big smile causing us to smile. Daniel picks him up and we head out the door.
"Thanks Oscar!" I call out before stepping into the car.
"Are you going to adopt me?" Noah asks catching us by surprise.
Daniel smiles at him. "Something like that kiddo."
Noah smiles widely and we turn around in our seats with smiles of our own.
* * *
"Is it going to hurt?" Noah asks as Dr. Oliver takes out the tools for the DNA test.
"I'm just going to swipe some saliva and pick a strand of hair." He explains. "It's not going to hurt one bit."
"After this we will go to the ice cream store." Daniel states causing Noah to grin.
"He's already spoiling him." Adrian teased causing me to giggle.
Daniel throws a playful glare at us. "Be quiet. You'll do the same with your kids someday."
"Okay ready?" Dr. Oliver asks and Noah nods. After taking Noah's samples he does the same for Daniel. "The results will be ready in about an hour and a half."
"Alright, we will be back by then." Adrian answers before we exit the hospital.
"Ice cream now?" Noah asks with hopeful eyes and Daniel nods.
"Yes." Noah cheers causing us to laugh.
"Daniel, don't take this the wrong way or anything but what if he isn't your son?" Adrian cautiously asks. "I believe he is but what if he's not.
Daniel smiles. "I adopt him. This little guy needs a family and I am willing to give that to him. I've met this girl, her named Hannah and she'll make a great mom for him."
Adrian and I smile at him. "I'm happy that you are moving on."
"Me too." Daniel replies.
* * *
"Mr. McKeller I'm pleased to inform you that Noah is 100 percent your son." A smile spreads on Daniel's face.
"Thank you so much doctor." Daniel states. "We need to tell Noah."
We walked into Adrian's car and he drives us to Linda's Orphanage. We climb out of the car once the car is parked and I press the doorbell.
"What do you need?" I look up to find Jennifer. Great the witch is here! "Oh it's you."
"We came to pick Noah up." I answer.
Oscar pops near Jennifer. "Is he his son?"
"Yeah, Noah is my son." Daniel answers with a grin.
"Son?" Jennifer asks confused. "Who are you people."
"I'm Daniel McKeller and this is my brother Adrian McKeller." Daniel answers. "Long story short I'm Noah's dad. Here are the DNA test results if you need proof."
"M-McKeller?" Jennifer's eyes widen. "That would mean Noah is the heir to the McKeller fortune."
"Actually that would be Adrian's future kid." Daniel corrects.
Jennifer crosses her arms. "Well you can't take him. You have him up for adoption."
"I didn't his mother did." Daniel explains. "She made me think he was dead and I now know the truth."
"Still." Jennifer argues. "You can't take him."
"Ms. Lillian I made you this." A little girl stated.
Jennifer examined the paper flower and crumbled it. "It was awful. Now go back to your room."
Oscar consoled the little girl and took her inside. "You're a monster."
"Well I guess these kids will have to deal with me being a monster." Jennifer retorts.
"How much money do you want?" Adrian asks grabbing Jennifer's attention.
"For what?" Jennifer asks.
"How much money do you want in order for us to own this orphanage?" Adrian asks.
Jennifer thinks about it for a while. "Two million."
Adrian pulls out his checkbook and writes the check for her. "Adrian you can't." Adrian hands the check to Jennifer and she smiles.
"Hawaii here I come." Jennifer walks up to her room. "I'm out of here forever!"
Oscar smiles at Adrian. "Thank you, she was such a pain in the butthole."
"I'll be remodeling this place and bringing it better stuff for the kids." Adrian states. "Daniel, Jane, and I will make sure this place runs smoothly. Since we can't be here all the time would it be okay for you to be the headmaster?"
"I would love to." Oscar answers. "I'll go get Noah for you."
A few minutes pass before Oscar comes down with Noah and his little suitcase. Daniel takes Noah from him.
"Hey kiddo," Daniel states. "I know this is hard to believe but I'm your dad, your real dad."
Noah smiles. "Really?"
"Yes." Daniel replied.
"Why did you leave me in this place daddy?" Noah asks.
"I didn't." Daniel answers. "Someone took you from me and put you here. But now I found you and I am going to take you home to your family."
Adrian walks up to Noah. "I'm your uncle Adrian and this is your aunt Jane. You have two other aunts waiting for you."
"Yay! I have a family." Noah cheers and we smile at him.
Daniel kisses his forehead. "Yeah you do my son."
