The CEO’s Betrayal: My Ex-lover Has Triplets

Chapter 38~ Considering

Tessa’s breathing got caught in her throat. Her eyes turned into saucers as she stared at Aaron in

disbelief.

She couldn’t believe Aaron’s words. An apology gift? Who gives a shopping mall as a gift?

“Are you for real? You got me a shopping mall as an apology gift? What are you apologising for? I don’t remember being angry at you. Did you do something wrong?” Tessa inquired, feeling

confused.

“I’m sorry for everything that has been happening ever since you returned to Ashford City. I hate. that I had failed to make it a safer place for you and our kids,” Aaron said and continued, “However, this is an apology for what Serena wanted to do to you at that party. I should have dealt with her the first time she tried to frame you.”

Tessa frowned deeply, she thought Aaron was going out of his way to please her. She didn’t need such extravagant gifts.

“Still… This is too much. I can’t accept this. Besides, it wasn’t your fault,” Tessa said and then handed the document over to him, “I told you I don’t need these things. I’ve already forgiven you about the past. This won’t make me change my mind about being in a relationship.”

She was worried that he would want something in return if she accepted the expensive gift.

“I know. There are no strings attached to this gift. Whether you give me a chance or not, it will still be yours. I just want to give it to you,” Aaron said desperately.

He swallowed as he thought of a way to make Tessa accept the gift but Reagan beat him to it.

“Mommy, get the gift. Daddy is very rich! Don’t feel bad about getting things from him.”

Tessa’s eyebrows furrowed and she glanced at her son, “Reagan, who taught you how to speak like

that?”

Reagan shrugged and said, “No one. I just know that Daddies protect Mommies and buy them. things to make them happy. Aren’t you happy when Daddy buys you flowers? I saw you looking at

them while smiling the other day-”

“Reagan!” Tessa’s face flushed at her son’s words. Her heart raced as she averted Aaron’s gaze.

Aaron chuckled and remarked, “Just accept it. You can accept it for the kids. What’s ours will

belong to them one day anyway.”

Tessa sighed and looked at the document. It suddenly felt heavy. The mall itself was worth billions of dollars. She wanted to continue refusing but when she looked at her three children, she
