CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR - BUNCH OF CRAZIES
Cassy POV
It was not easy convincing Adam that I had to return to Glendale with the kids. It took a lengthy discussion, opening up old wounds, until he finally relented and gave us his blessings.
Yay!
“Why do you want to come back to Glendale? You can operate remotely from here.” I knew he would say that the first time I broached the subject of leaving our home and coming back to Glendale, but I was armed.
I already rehearsed in my head my reasons that even I believed in the credibility of my words.
“My business, remember?”
He looked like he had all the time in the world. Adam sat on the chintz-covered wicker outdoor chair on the patio and placed his

Mandy went to the car ahead of me while I stayed to go to the restroom.My trip to the restroom took a long time. I got sidetracked by two three-year-old kids blocking my path.“We are lost, and we are looking for our mommy.” The little boy said haughtily, while he held his sister’s hand.I was amused and amazed at the same time at the protective way he stood just a little bit forwa

Caleb POV“Daddy.” The quiet little voice of my little girl touched a cord in my heart and tugged, making it impossible to breathe.I let her hug me as I try to regulate my wayward heart from skipping. She called me Daddy.I could not hide the delight on my face, and an involuntary smile creased the corners of my lips and eyes.When the little girl let go, her brows wrinkled in concentration.“Where have you been, Daddy? Why can’t we find you?”I was stunned.“You are looking for me?”My little girl nodded enthusiastically.

You were not hurt anywhere?” I inspected them from head to toe.After seeing they were not hurt from their little adventure, I got up to meet the officers in the room."Thank you, sir," I murmured my heartfelt thanks to their chief. He was sitting on his desk when I approached him."It was Officer Brent who found them and brought them here." The chief admitted, feeling a little awkward at the profuse show of gratitude.
BILLIONAIRE EX WANTS ME BACK CHAPTER FIFTY - RUN AROUND IN A MAD DASH
Caleb POVMy phone continued buzzing, but I could not seem to pull myself out of my daze.Did Cassy fall in love with someone else in the past three years?My mind rebelled at the idea. Cassy cannot fall in love with anyone except me. I am her husband. Then, an idea struck. I called Greg outright. “Hey, Mandy is mobilizing a search team for you. Why aren’t you answering her call? Are you still at the airport?” He was chuckling, but I cut him off. What I have to say is more important. “Listen, Greg. Can you check at the Civil Affairs Bureau whether my marriage to Cassy is still legal?” “What happened? Did Adam do something underhanded to rescind the contract?” My friends knew the animosity Cassy’s brother had for me. It was a mutual thing.We had been at it since college and had never outgrown the rivalry. The situation with Cassy only compounded it.“None that I heard of, but it would not hurt to be sure.” "Okay. Give me an hour, tops. I will call you right after I do some v

Caleb POVWhat Greg said had me worked up.“That is nonsense!” I said bitingly when Greg, our other friend James, and I met for drinks later.I slammed my glass to the counter with the amber liquid sloshing and spilling onto the wooden top, but I did not care. I still have to get my wife back, and Greg’s comment was not helping me in the slightest.“Hey, do not bite my head off. It was just pure speculation on my part.”Greg took the paper towels from the bartender to dab at the spillage before crumpling them in his hands and putting them aside."Sorry, man.” I clapped Greg on the back.I realized his point was valid, but it made me glower inside just thinking about it, especially now that I finally get to know my kids. “But what if it was true?” James interjected.He laughed when I glared at him.“Serves you right. Now, you have two men to watch out for. First, the doctor you accused Cassy of cheating with, and now, this private investigator.”The two looked smug. And I wanted t

Cassy POV“Hmp! Why is he here again?” My little girl was blatantly showing her displeasure at the sight of Reynold this morning.She stopped almost immediately when I glared at her.The uncharacteristic show of rudeness stumped me. Why can’t my kids be more docile? Why do they have to speak their minds brazenly at others?Reynold tapped me on the shoulder to let me know that he did not take offense at Oakley’s rude behavior, but as a mother, I could not help feeling embarrassed. I did not raise my kids to be impolite with other people.I trained them to speak their minds but not to show disrespect.“And where are we going?” This time, it was her brother who asked me.All the time while he sat in the back passenger cabin of the car, he had his arms crossed over his chest, and his eyebrows were drawn inwardly to show he was unhappy with our guest.Slamming my forehead with the heel of my palm, I took a deep breath to muster enough patience. I was ready to blow my fuse and bellow at t
