Billionaire’s Lost Angel

Lotus decided to make pancakes because Jenny enjoys them. She also made James some blueberry muffins. She pondered Peter’s breakfast choice for a while. Then I decided to make them both ham and cheese sandwiches. She went upstairs after putting the muffins in the oven to wake up James and Jenny, while Monica assisted with other breakfast items. She was surprised to see that they were already dressed for school when she entered their room.

“How did you manage to get ready all by yourself today?” Lotus asked her children while folding her in front of us.

“We didn’t get ready on our own. Daddy assisted us in getting ready.” James replied as a matter of fact.

“Where has your father gone?” Lotus asked again looking around the room.

“He went to get ready for his office.” This Jenny replied.

“Check your school bags again. I am going to get ready.” Lotus said and left for her room.

When Lotus entered her room, Peter emerged from the bathroom, a towel wrapped around his waist. Lotus was taken aback to see him in this state. His wet hair was dripping with water. Peter approached Lotus, who was still on her spot.

“Couldn’t you take your gaze away from your husband?” Peter asked her with a smirk.

“In fact, yes. Your body is so appealing that you should cover it with something.” Lotus said in a seductive tone brushing her fingers on his bare chest, sending shivers to Peter.

Lotus then snatched the towel from him in the middle of a fast-moving pool. She then wrapped that towel around Peter’s head and dried his hair. She left him here after drying his wet hair and went to the bathroom to take a bath. Peter realized he wasn’t wearing anything until Lotus left.

After everyone was ready for their work they went downstairs to have breakfast together. The table was filled with various kind of foods. Lotus poured a glass of milk to each og her children.

The moment Jenny saw the pancakes her eyes became bright. James was the same after seeing his blue berry muffins.

“Mom had you made them all?” James asked biting his muffins.

“Yes your mom made the pancakes for Jenny and baked the muffins for you.” Monica replied, while placing the sandwiches in front of Peter.

“Sorry I didn’t know your breakfast preferences so I made the same for both of us.” Lotus apologized to Peter in advance.

“It okay wife. I love pancakes and blue berry muffins as breakfast. And these sandwich are like heaven.” Peter said with a mouth full of food. Lotus chuckled at his comment. He was trying hard to get along with them, she thought to herself.

After breakfast the family left in a same car. Peter and Lotus decided to drop James and Jenny to their school together. James and Jenny were dancing in delight. This was the first time their parents came to drop them together as their parents. Peter carried them both together to their class. The kids proudly introduced Peter to their classmates. Everyone was stunned knowing that Peter was their true father. Peter and Lotus pecked the twins one by one and bid goodbye.

When they were returning to their car Lotus bumped in to someone. The other person seemed to be in a hurry. She didn’t apologize for bumping in to Lotus.

“Are you okay, Lotus?” Peter asked her to make sure she wasn’t hurt. Lotus nodded her head while rubbing on her shoulder. Peter followed her hand and was angry to that person. He looked back to find that person and saw a woman in a red short dress was talking to a fat boy.

“Hey you, don’t you think you should apologize to my wife.” Peter yelled at the woman in dress. They couldn’t see her face as she was looking the other way. Lotus pulled Peter along with her as she didn’t want any problem here. However she was getting late for her meeting.

“I think your wife is the one who should apologize.” Said a sweet voice from there back, when they were going to enter their car. Hearing the voice both Peter and Lotus turned around to face the owner of the voice. A woman in her mid twenties was standing there. Her eyes were green and skin was white. She enhanced it with red lipstick. Her body was like a fashion from the magazines. Lotus checked her out up to down. Though the lady was beautiful but there is no doubt that she had undergone several surgeries. The woman’s gaze was fixed on Peter which irritated Lotus more. She stepped between Peter and the woman and arched a brow to her.

“What did you say just now? I should apologize to you? For what? It was clear that you bumped into me as you were running.” Lotus said to the woman. But other person was unaffected by Lotus. She was still looking at Peter. Lotus followed her gaze and saw that Peter was also looking at the woman. His eyes had some mixed emotions. One of them was anger, but Lotus couldn’t get the other one. She cleared her throat loudly and both of them came to their senses from their gazing competition.

“Do you know her?” Lotus asked Peter in confusion.

“No, I don’t know her.” Peter replied reluctantly then continued, “Let’s go I am getting late.” He said and opened the door for Lotus. It was evident in his way of reacting that something was bothering him. Lotus was going to enter the car when the lady called her from behind.

“I am sorry Mrs. Robinson. It was my fault.” Then she left inside the school. Lotus was in a stance with the awkward environment around her. She shook the thoughts aside and got inside the car. Peter sped off the car. On the way to the office, Peter was silent the whole time; which was unusual for him. Lotus looked at her husband his lips were shut in a thin line as if he was in deep thought. She didn’t disturbed in his thought and averted her gaze on the road. After fifteen minutes drive they reached their office as there was a lot of traffic on the road. Peter got down from the car and opened door for Lotus. She got don with a smile. However Peter didn’t smile back at her like he always did. He closed the car door and drove back to his office building, leaving Lotus shocked there. This is the first time he didn’t say anything or flirt woith her after their marriage.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

‘Maybe he is tensed with his meeting, which he mentioned about earlier.’ Lotus said to herself and went towards her lift.

Third Person’s P. O. V

Lotus was busy with her meetings and new projects the entire morning. After finishing the meetings she went back to her office and slummed her body on the soft swivel chair. She looked at the glass wall of her office to get a glimpse of Peter but Peter’s side of wall was covered with curtains. Lotus was surprised. In last one month, not for once Peter closed that glass wall. He always said that he loved looking at her in between his work. Then what happened to him today?

May be he was busy in meetings and didn’t have chance to open the curtains, Lotus tried to reason his action. She was a bit upset with everything. She looked at her watch. It was almost time to pick James and Jenny from their school. So she arranged her table and went off to the elevator.

“Ma’am, should I call the driver to brought the car?” Stanley asked her as soon as she got out of the office.

“No Stan, I am going to Peter’s office then we will go to the school together.” Lotus said with a smile. Stanley smiled back at his boss with a bow.

Lotus went to Peter’s personal elevator through their adjacent parking lot. She pressed the number forty on the lift and waited. She fixed her lipstick and checked her make up inside the lift. This was her first time here as Mrs. Robinson, so she wanted to look presentable. When the lift signaled that it reached the CEO’s office floor Lotus got off the lift and walked to Peter’s office. She wanted to surprise Peter that’s why didn’t bother to knock and directly opened the door.

In his office Peter was sitting behind his large table with a cold face. There was another person sitting across him. But Lotus couldn’t see the other person’s face as he/she was sitting facing Peter. Hearing the sound of door opening Peter looked at the door with irritation. However seeing Lotus standing there his expression changed from irritation to shocked and fear.

“Are you busy? Am I disturbing you?” Lotus asked with a sweet smile. But Peter didn’t smiled back not even answered her question. His expression was blank as if he lost his words. Instead the other person replied to Lotus’s question and turned around to face her. Lotus was beyond shock after seeing the face of Peter’s guest. She was the same lady from earlier, they met in school. But what was she doing there?

“Didn’t your teachers taught you to knock before entering someone’s personal cabin?” said the lady in red dress. Her words were cold and venomous. Lotus was so shocked that she forgot to reply her. She looked at Peter for some explanation but he was looking down. Lotus gulped down the lump in her throat and looked back at the lady with a confident smile.

“Sorry I didn’t know there was a unwanted guest in my husband’s office. Honey, I am going to school to pick the children. See you at home,” Lotus said with a sweet smile and turned around. In the past few years she learned to not show her emotions to others. Her fake smile faded away the moment she stepped out of that room. Then she closed the door behind her and walked fast to the elevator.

Something wasn’t right with her. She was feeling hurt but why? She didn’t love Peter then why was her heart hurting like that? Tom was coming out of the elevator when Lotus entered. He smiled at her but she didn’t care to respond to him and pressed the button to close the elevator. Before closing the elevator door, Lotus saw a glimpse of Peter running towards her, but she didn’t wait for him. A lone tear escaped from her left eye. She wiped the tear back and dialed Stanley’s number.

“Stanley, tell the driver to get the car I am going to pick the kids,” Lotus said as soon as the call connected.

“But ma’am, aren’t you going with Mr. Robinson?” Stanley asked her.

“Shut up and do as I say,” Lotus scolded Stanley and cut the call. Stanley was shocked by her behavior. He was working with her from the very beginning. Not even once she raised her voice on him. But today something was really not okay with her, he thought and rushed downstairs.

Instead of the driver Stanley drove the car to the entrance of Robinson Group and waited for Lotus. Soon Lotus came out with a dark face. She hopped on the car and settled down in the backseat of the car. Stanley didn’t say anything and started the engine. They reached the school in ten minutes. Lotus checked her watch, they came ten minutes earlier than the regular time. So she had no other choice than to wait for the kids to finish their classes. She closed her eyes and leaned against the headrest of the car.

Stanley observed his boss through the rear view mirror. His boss was a beautiful woman. If he hadn’t been a gay he would try to woo her. When the school bell rang Lotus went off the car and walked towards the classroom of Jenny and James. Jenny and James were coming out of their class. As soon as their eyes landed on their mother they both ran to her.

“Mommy, why are you alone? Didn’t daddy come to pick us up?” Jenny asked looking around searching for her father. Lotus was about to say something to Jenny when she heard a voice from behind her.

“How can daddy miss meeting his prince and princess?” Peter replied to Jenny and pinched on her cheek. Lotus looked at his face.

“Darling, you should have wait for me. How could you think I will not come for you and my babies?” Peter asked Lotus in low baritone. She didn’t say anything just grabbed the hands of the kids and walked out of school.

“Honey, wait for me,” Peter rushed behind her.
