ACEIA'S POV"I'm really sorry! I didn't mean to peek at you. I didn't know it was an adjoining room," I explained quickly, but Hudson didn't seem to hear anything and just stared at my face. Its eyes are scrutinizing. "You didn't tell me that you renovated the house..."It's a big deal, right? I mean, because we both see each other's bodies when we are still married?"Nothing changes about you, Ace; you still have beautiful lips. You are incredibly beautiful." It seemed that Hudson was not in his own manner as he stared at my lips.I tried to break free from Hudson's grip, but his arms were like steel. He seems to have no intention of letting me go. My whole system was in a panic because of our body contact, and now my nervousness was increasing because of what he was saying."I want to know something, Aceia," he said, focusing his gaze on my eyes."Do you miss me?" My eyes widened at Hudson's question. His face is too thick to ask such a question. "Do you miss me touching your body be

HUDSON'S POVI looked at Clark, who shook his head in disbelief. "It couldn't be." I sat up as I remembered Aceia's reaction when we saw each other at the mall with Alison. "She hid her pregnancy at me…"I shook my head and laughed and cried like a madman. I didn't know how to feel."So, Alison is really your daughter?" Sanchez asked, confused."Do you know how many times I've asked for that?" I laughed and asked Clark and Sanchez, who were just looking at me, "So, for five years my daughter didn't have a father on her side? Why is this happening to me? Two of my kids grow up without a father." I washed my face with both hands. "Do you know that feeling of being useless? I didn't give the love that my daughter deserves."I stood up in so much frustration. I needed to let it out. I clenched my fist and punched the wall near me. Pain sipped through my knuckles, but I didn't stop. I punched the wall until I couldn't raise my hand anymore. I rubbed my tear-filled eyes. I was crying in so m

All she needs to do is take a rest. I didn't tell Alison that her father was already by her side. But as the days passed, I could see in Hudson's face that she wanted to hug and introduce himself to our daughter, so maybe it's time."Alison," I called nervously. "Would you believe me when I tell you that Daddy is here?"Alison's smile immediately disappeared, and she was confused by what I said. She blinked and looked around. Seeing nothing, she looked back at me, not speaking."Do you want to meet him?" I caressed his face."Of course, Mommy," she said in a soft voice. She sounded excited, too. I just don't know what her real reaction will be when she knows that Hudson is her father.Alison was sitting on her bed, holding her teddy bear. I let out a sigh of relief before I spoke."You may come in," I s
