Unexpected Reunion: My Baby Daddy Returns

***

” Whoa…someone found herself a new lover.”

She turned to see Aaron standing outside, she had forgotten to close the doors after she received the delivery. Thankfully it was just Aaron and nobody else.

“I thought you left with Antonio?” She asked, surprised.

“He left too early, and I really needed to rest.” He sipped the herbal tea slowly. ” Where’s mother?”

” She left…” Piper answered as she admired the stones in the diamond pendant.

“She left? You have an idea why she left.”

“No idea…I think Antiono knows something about it.” She dropped the pendant carefully and took the teddy bear next. It was pink and fluffy, she had one but she loved this one better. It was bigger and could give a comfortable and perfect cuddle.

” Who’s your new lover?”

” Not a lover. Antiono sent them.”

“Really? Isn’t this morning strange. Guess I woke up to a different world entirely.”

She looked at him and gave him the note which was attached to the package. He took it and read it aloud.

To my only sister, Piper whose smiles I love. Look beautiful each day,

From Antiono.

“Simple and direct!” Aaron exclaimed as he folded the notes in halves and handed it back to her, but Piper was more engrossed in opening her gifts than taking the note. Left with no choice he placed it on her makeup dresser, it was the first thing she was going to see when applying her makeup.

“Can I see your gifts?”

“Sure but don’t lust over them. They are only for females.” She mocked.

He laughed at her remark and moved to sit on her bed as he examined each of the items. There were 5 jewelry boxes, all diamond pendants with lovely designs. Piper was obessed with diamonds but Antiono never had an idea. Aaron wondered who must have told him about Piper’s obsession.

Maybe he bribed his way in like he always did, Aaron thought.

It was not until after 15 minutes they finished their show of viewing all the gifts. Aaron was starving but not Piper, she was way too excited to eat anything.

“You don’t want to have breakfast?”

“Not now…I need to find a dinner party to attend.”

” Why?”

” Obviously to showcase my new jewelry. You know it’s the most popular diamond jewelry never worn by anyone including the queen of England herself.”

Aaron listened carefully to his sister, not sure of how to convince her Antiono was never going to let her attend any dinner party.

“How will Charlotte feel hearing about having this jewelry. You know she wanted it too.” Aaron said.

” I don’t care about how she feels. Antonio is my brother; family comes first.” She defended.

” Smart detective. Let’s have breakfast, Antonio won’t be pleased if he finds out his only sister is starving herself.”

“Fine! I will come with you.”

They went hand in hand to the dinning table where their breakfast was served.

“Have you thought of having a girlfriend?” Piper asked, just as Aaron took a bite from his toast. He almost choked as a result of her question, he was astonished.

” All of a sudden? You wanna choke me?”

” You have a habit of cunning ignoring my question.”

” I don’t need a girlfriend now .”

” Why? You ain’t getting younger.”

” Neither am I getting older. Let me eat, Piper. Please.” He placed his both palms above his head as he pleaded.

Piper rolled her eyes, and turned away. She was pissed.

“I’m not hungry.” She got up to leave.

” You haven’t taken a bite yet .”

” I don’t want eat with someone who scolds me.” She sounded childish and it calmed Aaron.

“Let’s talk about relationship over dinner today. I heard there’s a gala going on no…not a gala and auction..” he corrected.

“Really? Perfect. I love you.” She ran to hug him as she was so excited.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Why this now?” I think it’s not necessary.”

“You owe me an explanation, Mia.”

“Why? Because Ariel loves you and takes you as her father?” She asked with her hands folded under her breast.

” No not that…Not Ariel.”

“Ariel is sick and I can’t think of any thing asides that.”

She avoided every form of eye contact from him, it was difficult and she couldn’t keep up as he constantly gazed at her. She had to walk away. Antonio didn’t follow her, instead he walked to one of the waiting chairs and sat comfortably, then brought out his phone and was busy with it.

Mia looked at him in a flare, he wasn’t really bothered about knowing who Ariel’s father was, she didn’t know if she should get upset or just let it go. Her phone rang distracting her from those thoughts,

She answered even if it was from a private number, the only thing she heard was a buzz. Her heart gripped in fear and her hands froze. It was the same man.

“Drive your car to the 4th Street behind the bakery. Come alone and don’t try to act smart.”

The call went off afterwards and she was gasping for air, Antiono had to rush to her side to resuscitate her but she proved stubborn as she ignored the water he gave her and the questions he asked.

” What was that for?’ Antiono asked, he was angry and unable to keep his voice low.

” I’m sorry about that.” She knew it was rude of her. After all he had done a lot of favours for her in the past.

” I have to call Emma now.” She walked away, and he watched her.

The call came again, he thought.

But he couldn’t understand who was trying to cause a string in their relationship. He had two suspects majorly Wilson and not Charlotte because it concerns her mother. He was sure Charlotte wouldn’t blackmail Mia with their mother’s life.

The only person responsible was Wilson, and he hoped Aaron proved him guilty soon. He was tired of Mia’s melo drama.

As she was trying to leave, Antiono held her by her wrist,

” Where are you going, leaving Ariel all alone?” He thundered.

“I’m off to somewhere,”

” Where?”

” It’s not necessary, please do take care of our daughter.”
