Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 42: Who Saved Shauna?
"Shauna! Where are you?" Lily kicked the door to a private room and startled the guests inside. "Miss, please. You are disturbing our guests," an employee of the Club Lux said. "Sandy, blonde hair girl with a cute face! Ring a bell yet? Until you tell me where she is, I won't stop kicking doors open!" Lily angrily declared. This was the third private room she had broken into, but there were no signs of Shauna. Of course, upon her entry, bouncers tried to stop Lily, but she flashed her military ID and handgun. She declared that she was there to save her friend in trouble. The male receptionist tried to help find Shauna, but the club was dark, and they had too many clients that night, so he could not distinguish Shauna. "Sir, maybe the VIP room?" One bouncer suggested. "Mister Jace Hernandez is celebrating his birthday with a few guests. I'm pretty sure his friends brought women." The male receptionist instantly frowned. He stuttered, "No. No." He looked at Lily and said, "Whoev
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 43: Shauna's Apology
The day before, Shauna left the Thompson Group of Companies desolated. She blamed herself for bringing up the old days when she and Lucas were kids. In the end, Lucas slapped her with the truth, and his words continued to cut like a knife. Why did she even fall for Lucas? If only she had fallen in love with someone else, life would not have been so hard for her. Shauna had been driving around the city for half an hour. She did not want to go home. Just then, a text came in. She read it after parking on the side of the road. Blake: [Hey, Shauna. How are you doing? Please give me a chance to take you out.] Blake Wilson was Shauna's old high school classmate. They met again through a common friend when she returned to Rose Hills. Since then, he has been asking her out. The guy was above average. His family owned three grocery stores in the city. He was handsome enough. He had very light brown hair and green eyes. What Shauna disliked about him was the fact that Blake lived a ca
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 44: Fate
Lucas was speaking to his Uncle Sean and Aunt Reese outside Shauna's room. Reese was Shauna's mother. "They are still talking inside," Lucas said while peeking through the door. "But Lily has texted me the names responsible. Looks like Shauna opened up to her about it." Reese wept in Sean's chest. She wondered, "Why couldn't Shauna tell us?" "Aunt, I think it's normal for her to open up to Lily. She saved Shauna. Moreover, Shauna is probably ashamed to tell you for now. Give her time," Lucas suggested. "There you are," a familiar voice called. "I came to get some case study files, and then I learned from one of the doctors that you are all here. So I came looking for you!" The person who arrived was Lucas' mother, Doctor Shantelle. She was smiling, but when she saw their panicked expression, she asked, "What's going on?" Lucas was usually composed, but he suddenly felt uneasy. This was not part of his plan. He meant to visit his mother later in the day, but instead, she was the
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 45: The Story Behind Twix
"Aiden, we shouldn't be disturbing anyone," A man in a black suit tried to get the boy back to walking with him, but the young man wasn't following. The man looked like he was in his late twenties or early thirties, and he appeared to be the boy's bodyguard. "I'm not disturbing her. She could use a Twix!" the boy declared. "Well, she has her Twix now. Let's not bother her," the man said. He then turned to Shantelle and remarked, "Ma'am, I'm sorry about this. Aiden can be very stubborn -" "I'm not stubborn," Aiden objected. "I'm just determined. There is a difference! I want to befriend this lady, and nothing is wrong with that!" "It's - It's fine," Shantelle ultimately said, stopping the bodyguard from taking Aiden away. "If it's okay with you, Mister. I like talking to him." "I -" Despite having just cried, she forced a smile. She wiped her face again and said, "I miss kids, and he is pretty adorable." "See? She said I'm adorable! Aiden turned to the man and said with a smirk.
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 46: Shantelle's Decision
"Yes, he is my son. Before I left, I got Lily pregnant, but I did not know." Lucas' reply on the phone continued to ring in her head. Her heart would not stop racing. 'Oh, my god!' She thought. 'Lily fell pregnant, and she raised Aiden on her own?' She felt a mix of emotions. Shantelle wound up ending the call, feeling angry and sad at the same time. Shantelle felt profound sadness upon discovering that Aiden had been without his father for ten years. The idea of her grandchild turning to Twix for comfort added to her heartache. She was even more sad that she had not learned about him. Then, she was disappointed at how Lucas dealt with things and how Lily kept Aiden from her and Evan. Out of nowhere, she felt someone tug on her dress. Shantelle turned around and saw Aiden standing next to her. He said, "Grandma, are you okay? It looks like your problem is serious. You should have another Twix." Then, before Shantelle could reply, Aiden hugged her around the waist. He said, "An
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 47: Staying Overnight
"Can we put Aiden to bed?" Evan requested from Lily and Lucas. "Does he still listen to bedtime stories?" Shantelle asked. "Does he want a glass of milk and a cookie before going to bed?" "Oh, I love bedtime stories!" Aiden responded with enthusiasm. Lily nearly coughed out blood at his son's answer because Aiden graduated relatively early from bedtime stories. At six, he was already learning basic coding for kids. Bedtime stories bore him, but he wanted to hear one from Lucas' mother. "Great!" Shantelle happily asked, "What book would you like me to read for you, Aiden?" "I like anything, Grandma," Aiden claimed. Much to his dismay, Shantelle urged, "Come on. You should have a favorite one. We can just d******d it online." Panic flashed in Aiden's eyes as he turned to Lily for help. Lily mouthed a book she used to read him when he was five, but he couldn't read her lips from where he was. So, Aiden replied to Shantelle, "I - I like One Piece!" "It's very nice! I love Monke
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 48: Call Me Mom
Lily and Lucas were back at the Thompsons' mansion on Monday afternoon. Lucas took an early off from work to introduce Aiden to his siblings. While waiting for everyone to arrive, they settled in the garden's Gazebo. The Gazebo was surrounded by a beautiful selection of plants and flowers. The fragrance of roses hung in the air, contributing to the newfound calmness in Lily's heart. "Hiya! Hiya!" Aiden was showing his grandpa some moves from a distance, and just as he simulated his powerhouse kick, Evan groaned and clutched his groin. "Oh, my -" Lily gasped in horror. She had just reconciled with Lucas' parents, and her son had to kick his grandpa's balls? Lucas immediately ran to their side, but Evan laughed very quickly. He said, "Got you!" Lucas was a good five meters away, and he remarked, "Dad, seriously." Aiden pointed at Evan and then to Lucas. He laughed and said, "Grandpa Evan is a fox!" The three men, who bore a resemblance to each other, laughed at what happened. T

"Relax, Aiden will be fine," Lucas said. "He is with Mom and Dad." "Oh, I'm not worried about that. I - I guess I'll miss Aiden?" Lily turned to Lucas and asked. "Do we really have to be away for two days?" "This day doesn't count for a whole day, Lily. It's four in the afternoon," Lucas objected. "So, we will only be away for thirty-two hours." They still had bodyguards following them around, but Lucas was driving his Lexus, while the other bodyguards were in their own cars. Lucas said they were heading to the highlands of Rose Hills, another property he bought upon his return. "Is it safe?" Lily asked. "It's very safe there," Lucas confirmed. Lily was silent for a good few minutes during the drive. Then, she recalled the night before and how welcoming Lucas' siblings were. She remarked, "How come? How come Marcus or any of your sisters were not angry at me?" "I had made it clear to them that you and Aiden are my happiness. I'm pretty sure they had a talk with Mom and Dad."
