Billionaire’s Ex-wife : Craving You

Chapter 107

RAVEL

PRESENT TIME

I wasn’t expecting things to take this direction at all last night. Having Hazel kiss my lips and having her warm naked body on mine last night is something I won’t trade for anything in this world. Having her naked and fair skin sleeping next to me this morning is truly a blessing.

Unable to keep my hands to myself, I reached forward and removed a hair from her face before reaching down to kiss her face. Last night, I had purposely taken her with no condonis, hoping that she will get pregnant. Call me a coward, but that is the most efficient way to constantly inform that wanker David that she is mine.

I’m fully aware that the threat still exists, and it lingers ominously in the back of my mind. Although things may seem calm for now, the blackmailer might be lying low, silently observing how everything unfolds, biding their time for another strike.

Pushing that concern aside, I glanced at the wall clock and with a gentle roll, I slipped out of bed, determined to prepare something special for her. She’ll undoubtedly be tired when she wakes up because I kept her up late last night.

As I left the room, I couldn’t help but smile upon hearing Daisy’s cheerful laughter, accompanied by her nanny’s soft and reassuring chuckles. The sound was a comforting reminder of the happiness that surrounded me at the moment.

Upon entering the kitchen, the laughter gradually quieted down, replaced by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Daisy greeted me with an infectious smile that brightened up the room. Without hesitation, I reached for her, pulling her into my embrace, and began peppering her delighted face with affectionate kisses. Her joyful giggles filled the air, a melody that warmed my heart and made the worries of the outside world seem distant and insignificant.

My housekeeper, Mrs. Mary Reynolds, cleared her throat politely, attempting to gain my attention. “What would you like for breakfast, sir?” she inquired in her customary respectful tone.

Balancing little Daisy on my hips, I carried her over to the spacious kitchen island. “I was thinking of whipping up something special for Hazel myself,” I replied, my voice filled with a hint of excitement.

Mrs. Reynolds nodded in acknowledgment and, with a gracious gesture, opened the refrigerator to display the array of breakfast options at our disposal. Daisy’s nanny, aware of the morning routine, suggested that I hand her over so she could prepare for her morning bath.

Taking stock of the ingredients, I decided on preparing a delectable dish of chicken and waffles. It seemed like a manageable task, possibly because Mary was there to supervise the culinary venture.

After cooking up a delicious breakfast, I carefully arranged it on a tasteful tray, complete with a chilled glass of orange juice. With the tray in hand, I made my way upstairs to our bedroom. As I entered, I found Hazel still nestled in the embrace of slumber, her peaceful form illuminated by the soft morning light filtering through the curtains.

Placing the tray gently on the bedside table, I couldn’t resist the turge to lean down and plant a tender kiss on her cheek. Slowly, her eyelids fluttered, and her eyes began to open.
