The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 22

Tracy

The kids finally wore their swimming suit after arguing for minutes about who would pick the blue or green, and it looked just nice on them.

Alex led the kids to the pool, while I carried the snacks

Thirty minutes later, I was expecting Micheal and Michelle to be tired, but then they didn't show any sign of being tired, Alex left them to play and he came to my side.

"What?" I asked because he was staring at me

"Been working hard, don't I deserve a reward too?" He asked and I sighed, I stuffed an apple in his mouth.

"That is not the reward I was expecting." He said chewing

"What were you expecting? An orange?" I asked and he looked at me like he was shocked

"Nevermind, come in and swim with us." He said and I shook my head

"I didn't bring anything suitable for swimming," I said looking at my top and trousers

"Doesn't matter." He said grabbing my leg, he removed the flip-flops I was wearing and he threw them away.

"What are you doing!" I asked but I didn't get any reply, he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me into the water.

"Alex!" I yelled trying to give him a light slap but he ducked, he released me and swam away from me, I swam after him and the children cheered me on.

I couldn't catch him and I realized he was trying to get me tired, I swam to the kids instead.

"Dee is naughty," Michelle said laughing.

"I know right"

"He is smart too, I can do the front crawl now, Dee taught me," Micheal said and I glared at him

"Stop glaring at my Ch...." I knew Alex was going to say child so I gave him a hard look so he won't

"My champion.. stop glaring at my champion." He said and I shook my head, I don't know how long I can keep him from calling them his children to their faces.

"Hear that mummy?, I'm his champion," Micheal said proudly of himself.

"I called you my champion yesterday."

"Are you jealous?" Alex asked from behind, he was so close I could feel his breath on my neck, I turned quickly and slapped his face lightly.

"Ouch!"

"Why did you pull me into the pool," I asked glaring at me

"Because you were being bored, now stop glaring, you look old." He said and the twin started laughing.

"It looks like it is going to rain." He said pointing at the sky, I looked up to see that dark clouds were gathering in the sky already.

"Looks like it is going to rain for real, come now Micheal, Michelle," I said moving to lift them but Alex stopped me

"Don't worry about it, leave them to me." He said shocking me, he came out of the pool and carried Michelle first then Micheal.

I came out of the pool to carrying the snack tray, by the time we got inside the rain was already drizzling.

Alex showed me to a room and by the time I helped the children out of the swimming suit into their clothes the rain was very heavy.

They went into the sitting room where Alex was already.

"Dee!" They called then joined him on the sofa, he helped them put the cartoon on then he came to meet me where I was standing.

"You knew it was going to rain heavily today, didn't you?" I accused and he grinned
