Chapter 88- Tears of joy
Reagan glanced at his sisters and sighed. He loved them but they usually only did girly stuff. Since he couldn’t bring his friends over at home all the time… He realised that he needed a buddy who would be with him 24/7.
What better way than to have a baby brother to play with? They could play video games together… run around the vast lawn at the mansion and do many other things that boys loved. to do.
Excitement crept into him at the thought. ‘We have a Daddy. Now I want a baby brother!’ He said silently.
The sports event continued. When all the competitions were done, the children were rewarded for their efforts. They were given medals and small trophies.
Those who came first, second and third were given gold trophies while the rest had silver trophies. The triplets rushed to Aaron to show him their rewards.
“Look, Daddy! We won gold trophies!” Reagan said.
“Wow! Congratulations to all of you!” Aaron said to the triplets. “You did very well. I’m so proud of you.”
He led his family to their car and drove them back. It was on their way to the mansion that Reagan decided to deliver his request.
From the back seat of the SUV, Reagan called for Tessa, asking, “Mommy, can you grow me a baby brother?”
Tessa’s mouth fell to the floor and her eyes almost popped out of their socket. She whipped around in her seat and stared at Reagan, “What? Where will I grow your baby brother?”
Reagan looked at her and said seriously, “In your belly, Mommy. Your belly needs to become big but yours is flat. It means you’re not growing a baby brother yet.”
“Who told you that, sweetie?” Tessa asked, her eyebrows knitting.
“It was Alan. His Mommy is making him a baby brother and her stomach is big. Can you grow me one now?” Reagan requested.
Tessa was dumbfounded for a split second. She glanced at her husband and found him grinning from ear to ear.
Aaron looked at the kids through the rearview mirror and asked his son, “Reagan, why do you want a baby brother?”
“I want a boy to play with,” Reagan replied outright.
Aaron chuckled in amusement. He met Reagan’s eyes through the mirror and said, “Why not a
baby sister? Don’t you love having sisters?”
“I want a baby sister, I want to braid her hair and play dress up,” Willa chipped in excitedly.
Reagan rolled his eyes and presented, “See, Daddy? This was what I was talking about. Girls are so expensive and they only know how to play with dolls. I need a boy to do boys’ stuff with.
“What if you have a baby sister

“I’ll still love her I love having sisters. I’ll just ask mommy to grow me another baby until 1 have a baby brother,” Reagan remarked with a serious face
Tessa and Aaron shared a look and chuckled Aaron replied, “Mommy will grow you a baby sister or brother but not now, buddy. It will take some time Also, we have no choice in what baby your mother and I will grow so even though I also want a baby boy, we have to be ready to have a baby girl too.”
“Yes, Reagan Also, although we’ve said we will grow a baby later, we might not be able to due to circumstances. So don’t feel bad it there’s no baby brother or sister,” Tessa added.
Reagan nodded while seated in his car seat. He glanced at his sisters and reached for their hands, declaring, “I love my sisters! I might not be able to play video games with them, but I’ll always protect them 1 also can’t wait for our baby brother or sister to come.”
When they arrived at the mansion, Willa cried, “I’m hungry!”
Tessa glanced at the time and realised it had been two hours since they had lunch at the sports event. She looked at her children and offered, “I’ll make you some snacks.”
She was about to move when Aaron stopped her. He had noticed that the race had drained her energy and she looked a little pale. Gazing into her eyes, he proposed, “Why don’t you and the kids relax as I make you some snacks? I won’t be long, ”
Tessa was feeling tired so she didn’t object. She took the children and they sat on the island in
the middle of the kitchen.
The kitchen was very spacious and it was easy to move around. It was beautiful and clean with a black, white and grey theme.
Aaron was just cutting up some fruits to make smoothies so he didn’t bother with an apron. However, Tessa couldn’t help but drool over him as he made his way around the kitchen.
He went to the refrigerator and took out some fruits. Getting a chopping board, he stood at the other side of the island and began to cut the fruit one at a time.
While the kids were excitedly waiting for their father to finish, Tessa kept admiring and wondering if he was really hers.
‘He’s so lickable! So gorgeous.’
The fact that he was doing this for them made him look more attractive. He carefully and gracefully cut up the bananas and mango. When he was done, he placed the fruits in a blender and added yoghurt and a big scoop of ice cream.
As he was doing this, Tessa stared at him dreamily… the muscles on his arms were flexing. His sharp jaw was more prominent as he stared down at the fruits in concentration… the stubble making him look more manly.
She sighed inwardly but so did the kids. Willa remarked, “I love it when Daddy makes us snacks or when he cooks for us.”
“I want Daddy to cook for us forever and ever and ever!” She squeaked and giggled.
“Daddy is busy, silly. He can’t make us food all the time,” Reagan responded to her.
“He can find time like Mommy does,” Nia added.
Aaron chuckled and said, “I’ll cook for you and your Mommy every day.”
“Yay!” The kids squealed.
When the smoothie was done, Aaron poured them into transparent cups and placed a stroll through the hole in the lid. He then gave them to his family and said, “Try out my recipe! This smoothie is called, Tears of Joy. Tell me what you think.”
Tessa and the kids took a sip and it was like they had an epiphany. Their eyes widened as they said, “Hmmmm… yummy.”
Tessa glanced at Aaron and remarked, “This is so good, babe. I think I’m about to cry tears of joy.”
She thought the smoothie was so good, it was giving her mini-orgasms!
“Yes, Daddy. It’s so delicious!” Reagan added.
Aaron smiled and said, “I think I’m going to open a smoothie shop.”
Tessa chuckled and shook her head. She took another sip and remarked, “As usual… a
billionaire will always be thinking about the next business to open.”
“I have to stay rich, cupcake. My goal in this life is to spoil you rotten. How can I do that if I go bankrupt?” Aaron said.
“I’ll take care of you,” Tessa proposed and Aaron shook his head.
“I know you can, love… but it’s my duty to protect and take care of you and our family. I’ll work hard for you and our kids.”
He then said, “Speaking of work, do you want to go and visit the site for the T&A properties construction? The employees would love to see their other boss.”
Tessa frowned. She looked up at Aaron and asked, “What other boss?”
“You, of course,” Aaron responded, a smile curling his lips.
