A Night with Gideon Chapter 27 (Part 2)
“BUT not anymore because she seduced the CEO. Can you imagine that? She’s a gold digger! I can’t believe she was able to secure her position not only in the airline industry but also in the Vesarius family. Worse, she asked Sir Gideon to be the father of her child. She’s really ambitious!”“However, Gideon claimed to be the child’s father.”“And you believe it?”“Well, they really look the same.”“My goodness, Maureen. Stop asking questions. And so what? Let’s just say that maybe the kid was his, but that doesn’t mean that Gideon won’t leave them someday, especially now that Gideon’s old wife is here. For all I know, he’s only using Lyzza as a rebound wife.”She waited for a few more minutes before she heard the ladies walk outside the restroom. She slowly opened the cubicle door and saw the backs of the three women who had just left. They were all junior flight attendants for Vesarius Airlines.Grabbing her purse, she went out of the cubicle and stood in the huge lavatory, getting he

LYZZA looked away as it seemed like Jessica’s words coursed all the way to the deepest part of her heart, trying to discover the real feelings she had been hiding from everyone.“I’ll get going,” she said, changing the topic.“Lyz—”“I have a scheduled flight at 8 o’clock. Please take care of my daughter.”Her friend let out a deep sigh. The disappointment could be seen in Jessica’s expression because of how she reacted to the topic. “Well then, take care.”Smiling thinly, Lyzza kissed her on the cheek and took one final glimpse of her daughter, who was already seated at her desk inside the classroom, before she decided to leave.The taxi they rode on their way to the school was still there, waiting for her. Caius didn’t go with them since he already went to school earlier. On the other hand, her mother remained silent and never said or asked anything as to why they decided to stay at their place instead.It was only past 7 o’clock in the morning, so she decided to let the time pass b

AFTER her final flight landed in the afternoon, Lorelie, the female security guard, hailed a cab for her. Another security guard was there and currently on shift with Lorelie, so she was able to leave the main gate for a few minutes in order to guide her on her way out and wait for the cab.“Do you have a child?” Lyzza asked while they waited for an unoccupied cab.“Yes. I do, Ma’am. I have three. Two of them are just a few years older than you and have already finished their studies. My youngest, however, studies engineering at De La Salle University,” the female security guard responded with pride in her voice, and she scratched her head. “That’s why I am so thankful to the Vesarius family.”She turned her gaze to face the woman.“My children are their scholars. De La Salle’s fees are extremely high, especially when it comes to engineering courses. It’s a good thing that I got a job here. All their employees’ children are scholars of the Vesarius family, especially ours who did the

“I-I’M sorry. I didn’t mean for it to happen.”“What do you mean you didn’t mean for it to happen? Somebody might have some grudges against you. Look at what happened to our mother!” Lorelie’s second child pushed her.She did not move or even fight back. It was true that it was all her fault.“What now? You can’t even answer us? I’ll report you to the police!” The woman was about to push her again, but her eldest brother stopped her. “Let go of me!”“Enough, Shantel! What are you doing? Stop adding to the problems that we already have!”“What? Why are you putting the blame on me? I’m not the one to blame here. And I’m not the one who’s adding to the problems. Why are you blaming me?” his sister shouted at him.“Stop it, Shantel. Not now, please. Stop getting on my nerves.”“Then I won’t. But I will make sure to put this woman in jail.”“You know she had nothing to do with this.”His words felt like heat scorching through his sister’s skin. Shantel’s eyebrows met and glared at him.“Yo

“WHERE’S Summer?” she asked when Gideon opened the door widely.She went inside and spun around to face him. The living room was utterly dark. If not for the lamp from the outside, she wouldn’t actually see the expression on his face.“She is at my Mom’s. Rolle took her earlier.”She took a long, deep breath. “You should’ve told me firsthand so I wouldn’t worry. I’m going to pick her up, or I’d rather spend the night there in case Summer doesn’t want to go home yet.”Her eyes feasted on the darkness of the penthouse. It definitely looked lifeless.“Spend the night here,” he said in a deep, low voice.“I should be with Summer.”“You should be with me too.”Her forehead creased at his sudden statement. “What?”“We’re married, right? You should be with me too. And you should be…” He took a deep breath and shook his head, walking past her.“And I should be what?” she curiously asked as she followed him all the way to the kitchen.“Have you eaten already?”“Not yet,” she answered as her ha

“I DON’T want to. You might pull some strings under your sleeves just to make me and Summer leave the country.”“I won’t. What’s the use if you’re not listening to me either. You even left me, remember?”Her lips parted more. “And I won’t hesitate to do that again if you still insist what you want. Do you want Summer to cry again because she’s far away from you? Our daughter will throw a tantrums.”“It’s for you and our daughter’s safety. What happened to Lorelie isn’t a joke. Those bullets she took were meant for you. if she didn’t block it for you, you would have been the one lying on the hospital bed right now,” he said through his gritted teeth. Gideon’s face darkened as his jaw clenched. “I should fire those stupid guards.”“What the hell? Why would you fire her? She’s been shot!”“Not her. Those stupid guards that I hired to— never mind.”“Don’t you ‘never mind’ me, Gideon. You think I didn’t know that the taxi driver was one of your men?”Gideon didn’t immediately respond to wh

LYZZA lifted her hair and simply tied it in a messy bun before she checked her phone, which she had placed on the bed earlier before she took a bath.Her mother had a reply to the text she sent, and noticed she had missed a call from Carollete. She called her husband’s sister, who then answered immediately.Summer’s nose was the first thing she saw on the phone screen. She couldn’t help but laugh when she heard in the background that Rolle was trying to tell Summer to move away from the screen.“Mommy,” Summer called out in her small voice and smiled broadly.Her baby even waved her little hand with narrowed eyes.She looked at Summer in awe on the phone screen. Her daughter was sporting curly hair, and she couldn’t deny that it suited the little girl. Her chubby, pinkish cheeks definitely matched her curly hair.“I’m beautiful, Mommy. Am I?” Summer even put the back of her hands under her chin and blinked beautifully at Lyzza.“Of course, baby. You’re very beautiful.” She chuckled. L

SOMETHING soft and wet brushing on her shoulder woke up Lyzza. She groaned softly and hugged her pillow even more.“Strawberry, it’s eight. You should eat first.”She pushed that thing that kept brushing against her skin even though it was giving her a satisfying feeling. “I still want to sleep,” she said in a hush voice.“You can go back to bed after you eat. Come on, it’s a long day for you. You can’t sleep with an empty stomach,” said by the familiar raspy baritone.Lyzza ignored him, and instead she shifted her position on the bed, rolling to the other side while pulling the comforter up to warm herself. That voice didn’t bother her again but she felt someone caressing her hair gently, pulling herself from the depths of sleepiness.When she blinked awake, the first things she noticed were the skyscrapers that could be seen through the glass window. The lights in the bedroom were off which made her able to sleep better.Her mind was still in a haze as her hand tried to find her pho
