Ch24: Who is he?

I was about to hit the man, but I stopped when I saw who he was. “Eze!“ I called in confusion.

Eze immediately pulled me into his arms. “How have you been, my dear? I miss you so much,” he said, giving me a peck on the forehead.

I was used to his behaviour. I gently pushed him away with a sigh. “You scared me to death. Next time, tell me when you come,” I said.

The look on his face turned a little questionable. “Where were the two of you?“ He asked.

I froze in place for a second. What was I supposed to tell him?

“Um, we visited a friend. How long have you been here?“ I asked. I didn't want him to start asking about the kind of friend we had visited.

“Bella, you know what you are doing, right?“ He asked and moved closer to me. I was scared that he could see through me.

“Daddy Eze! Do you forget about me every time you see my mommy?“ Little Lion looked up at him with a pout.

And Eze's attention was diverted to the child. “Oh, my goodness! I will never forget about this little darling,”
