Love of Tomorrow (Vania Greyson) novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11 Mother’s Honor, Children’s Position

As Vania watched Hanson questioning them in a harsh tone, she lowered her head slightly as she felt an inexplicable ache in her heart. Perhaps it was due to her being a mother as well.

And she couldn’t help speaking up. “Mr. Luke. I know it’s not my place to say anything here. However, they are still young. Talk to them nicely instead of being so harsh on them.”

She then smiled at the two children. “Morales and Morgan, right? Those are wonderful names. I can see that you two are obedient children. However, since you two are still small and young, running off on your own is dangerous, so you can’t do this anymore in the future, okay? Quick, apologize to your father and hurry home with him.”

Vania’s gentle admonishment instantly made the two children form a sense of dependency on her. If Mommy were here, she would have been mad at us instead.

The children blinked at Vania in response. It was only when Vania nodded as a sign that she was done talking did the children go to their father with their heads hung. “Daddy, we’re sorry. We were wrong.”

Just then, Vania’s phone rang. The caller ID was Melanie Greyson.

Vania did not answer the phone right away but directed her gaze at the two children and Hanson instead. “Something came up, so I’ll have to leave now. You two be good and obedient now, okay? May your dreams come true! Bye-bye!”

Although she was genuinely fond of the two children, they were, unfortunately, the children of Hanson Luke. Hence, Vania did not want to have further association with them, so she smiled before turning around and left the area.

Yet, the two children felt reluctant to part as they watched the back of that lady slowly disappearing out of sight.

After walking a few steps away, Vania picked up the phone that kept ringing. “Speak.”

Melanie—who was standing behind an artificial mountain in the garden—spoke in slight anger. “Where have you been?”

She had come to the garden and witnessed Vania and Hanson together when she heard that Hanson was coming.

Why is she with Hanson and the children?

Thus, she hid away before calling Vania with her phone in a hurry.

Vania answered coldly, “As per your instructions, I have arrived 2 hours earlier. Yet, it was you, Melanie Greyson, who was the tardy one. As for where I’ve been, I believe it’s none of your business.”

None of my business? To go behind my back to seduce my man and children is none of my business?

Melanie was filled with the desire to rush over to Vania and tear up that smug face of hers.
