The CEO’s Betrayal: My Ex-lover Has Triplets novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67- Ladies‘ retreat 

“Do you have to go? I’ll miss you,” Aaron said as Tessa massaged his legs. 

They were at her apartment, in her bedroom. Aaron had come to have his morning dose before she left for her trip. After they made love, Tessa decided to massage his legs since she would be out for two days. 

The trip was for Tessa to celebrate her last days as a single woman with her lady friends. There were four days remaining until the wedding. She and the ladies were going for a retreat at one of Aaron’s resorts. Then they would come back on the day before the wedding and have a bachelorette party. 

“I’ll miss you more, babe. But I want to do this… just hanging out with the girls with no worries before I completely commit myself to you,” Tessa replied. 

“You will still go on girls‘ trips after we get married. I won’t be a mean husband who will stop you from hanging out with your friends,” Aaron promised. “I want you to be happy. You will never feel trapped or get bored.” 

“I know… but this is different. These are my last days as a single woman. I’ll be a married woman in four days. I have to say goodbye to singlehood.” Tessa said. She put Aaron’s leg down and glanced at him, “It’s another way of me celebrating having found the love of my 

life.” 

Aaron smiled. His heart swelled at Tessa’s words. It felt good to know that he was the love of her life just like she was his world. 

He reached his hand forward and stroked her hair lovingly. He remarked, “Go and have fun, my love. I’ll see you at the altar.” 

He helped Tessa pack up clothes for her two days retreat. When he saw Tessa pack her royal blue bikini, he quickly said, “Are you going to wear this bikini at the beach?” 

“Yes. I might want to swim because it’s hot,” Tessa replied innocently. 

“No. You can’t wear a bikini. It’s too tiny and revealing. It will show all your remarkable curves and flawless skin. I’m the only one who can see your gorgeous body,” Aaron said, removing the bikini from the suitcase. 

Tessa chuckled and put the bikini back into the suitcase. “Do you want me to swim in leggings and a sweatshirt? As long as you know that I’m yours… there’s no need to be worried about other men seeing my body at the beach.” 

Aaron pouted as a wave of jealousy flared through him. He couldn’t help it. He was a 

possessive and territorial man. Knowing other men will be staring at his woman in her sexy bikini made his blood boil. 

However, he couldn’t stop Tessa from doing what she wants. He sighed and relented, saying, ” Ok. But I won’t be held responsible for the eyes that I will gouge out for looking at what is mine.” 

Smiling, Tessa approached Aaron and wrapped her arms around his neck. She glanced into his eyes and commented, “You’re so cute when you’re jealous.” 

Aaron coiled his arms around Tessa’s waist and arched an eyebrow at her, “Cute? I thought I was manly.” 

Tessa laughed and replied, “Yeah… you were smouldering just now. I promise to send you photos of me in my bikini.” 

“Oh, now you’re talking,” Aaron smirked and pulled Tessa closer. He slid his hand to her ass and squeezed it. His shaft twitched as if in response. “I would love to see those sexy photos.” 

The couple smiled at each other and shared a soft kiss. Aaron pulled away and said, “I meant it. I’ll miss you, beautiful.” 

After they were done with the packing, Aaron carried her suitcase out and Josh came forward and took it from him. 

The kids and Elena were in the living room. 

“Daddy, are we staying with you while Mommy goes on a trip with Aunt Michelle and Aunt Celia?” Reagan asked. 

“Yes, son. I’ll take you to meet your grandmother. She would love to know that the family has grown,” Aaron responded as he smiled at him. 

“We have another grandmother?” Reagan inquired with wide eyes. 

“Yes. She’s my mother but she’s in heaven, watching over us. 

“Oh, just like Mommy’s Daddy? Are they both watching over us?” Reagan continued to ask as he looked between his parents. 

Tessa smiled and ruffled his hair before she replied, “Yes, they are. And they are so proud of all of you.” 

Aaron picked up Willa and Nia and said, “Let’s escort your Mommy and then we can go for ice cream.” 

“Yay! We love ice cream!” The kids squealed. 

The resort they were going to was two hours from town and the ladies wanted to drive themselves there. 

Aaron drove Tessa to the meeting place where Cella and Michelle were already waiting in a cherry–red convertible car. 

“Please take care of my bride,” Aaron told his sister seriously, “The bodyguards will follow you behind for more protection. Call me immediately if anything happens-” 

“Ok. Can you chill? She will be safe,” Celia replied while rolling her eyes. 

Aaron turned to face Tessa and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly. “Take care. Call me as soon as you reach. Don’t forget to send the pictures.” 

Tessa hugged him back and promised, “I will.” 

She then hugged the triplets and said, “Mommy will be back, ok? Be good and don’t give your father trouble.” 

“Ok, Mommy. Bye–bye!” The kids responded. 

Tessa smiled and gave them each a kiss on the cheek. 

“That’s not fair… you didn’t kiss me,” Aaron said and Tessa rolled her eyes but there was a smile on her lips. 

She walked towards him and leaned up to kiss his cheek and remarked, “For someone who got an overdose this morning, you sure complain a lot.” 

She was referring to how they had two rounds of hot passionate sex and he kept asking for 

more. 

“You know I can never get enough of you, love,” Aaron replied with a side smirk crossing his lips. 

He waved at Tessa as he watched the car disappear. His heart suddenly felt empty and a sigh escaped his lips. 

‘I miss her already.‘ 

“Daddy, don’t worry. Mommy will come back. She can’t abandon us,” Reagan said when he saw the sad look on his father’s face. 

The girls rushed to him and hugged his legs. Nia looked up and said, “We are here, Daddy. Don’t be sad.” 

Aaron smiled and carried the girls. He then looked at his son, saying, “Of course, I’m happy because you guys are here with me. We shall wait for your mommy to return. Now, let’s go get that ice cream!” 

“Yay!” 

Meanwhile, the trip to the resort went smoothly. The ladies had fun on the road trip. They chatted about this and that and took photos of the scenery. 

When they arrived at the resort, Celia looked at the beach and said, “Wow! I love the smell of the sea.” 

She parked the car on the side of the road and the ladies ran to the beach after taking off their shoes. They could feel the sand under their feet as they ran towards the sea. 

“I can’t wait to jump into the water and swim until the sun goes down!” Tessa squeaked. 

They stood facing the sea, letting the sea breeze hit their faces. The sun was high up in the clear sky. It was a warm sunny day. Whooshing sounds could be heard from the waves of the sea and many people were enjoying themselves, swimming, surfing and sunbathing. 

Celia spread her arms wide and screamed, “I’m free! I’m divorced!” 

Tessa followed. She spread her arms wide and yelled, “I’m getting married!” 

They both looked at Michelle, waiting for her to say something. However, her next words shocked them. 

Although Michelle didn’t spread her arms wide, she looked pissed as she screamed at the top of her lungs. “I’m pregnant!” 

At the same time, a group of ladies were sunbathing on some sun loungers a few meters away from where Tessa and her friends were shouting while facing the sea. 

The group of ladies happened to hear them. One of them threw a dirty look their way and remarked, “OMG. Who are those women and why are they acting like a bunch of bumpkins?”
