The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 30

Tracy

I dropped the kids off at school then I went to get more foodstuffs, it took a while but then I got everything I was looking for.

I dropped by Cole's house to update Tiana and ask if she is available to help me move the remaining things in our former house.

"Hey, momma." I greeted them when she opened the door.

"Tracy, how are you doing?"

"I'm good, how are you?" I asked entering.

"I'm good, how is Alex doing now?" She asked as we took our sit.

"He's fine, he was discharged and we went home yesterday."

"Home?" She asked raising her brow.

"Yeah, home."

"You and the kids moved in?"

"Yeah."

"Yay!, Wait, how did your parents take it?" She asked

"Surprisingly well, they said they'd support me."

"We would all support you." She said and I smiled

"Oh I want to ask if you would be available, I need to pack what's left in that house.

"Oh sure, I'm available tomorrow once the kids go to school.

"Okay, thank you, Tiana."

"You are welcome, so how is it going between you and your husband?" She asked and I blushed

"Fine."

"Look at you blushing."

"Stop!" I said and she giggled.

"So, are you sleeping in the same room?"

"I'm serious stop, we don't sleep in the same room, we are taking it one step at a time," I said and she lifted her brow.

"What?"

"One step at a time?, why do I have the feeling that you'd be announcing your third child soon?."

"Rose, stop!" I said blushing hard

"Huh?, Look at that you called me Rose and you are blushing." She said while I blushed helped helplessly.

I left Cole's place minutes later then I drove home, when I got home I carried the foodstuff I bought and I went inside, I was very shocked to see a familiar-looking lady sitting on the sofa in the sitting room, Alex was sitting on another sofa.

It took a few seconds but it finally clicked, it was the lady from the magazine, the one Alex announced his engagement with, fear gripped me.

"You are kidding right?, What is she going to do? Tracy wouldn't want to do that, would you?" She asked and I looked directly into her eyes, I don't know what happened, but that very moment I wanted to stand up to her, she bullied me and made me feel inferior for years and I wanted her to know she can't keep bullying me like that.

"How are you doing Nora, I can see you've not stopped wanting what belongs to others."

"What?" She asked shocked.

"What's what?, Come on, we both know about the one-night stand that happened between you and your best friend's boyfriend, tell me, did she find out about it?." I asked and she started blinking, obviously trying to get me to stop.

"Oh, I guess she didn't, you see I knew you looked familiar when I entered but then I didn't know you were the one, how many plastic surgeries did you do? I mean, your plastic surgeon gave you a full face transformation, I hope you paid him well." I said and she cleared her throat.

"Well you see, my husband here is a very nice person, but I am not, I am not nice enough to share my husband, and you see my children, I don't think they'd like to share their father either, so I'd advise that you find someone else to love."

"Your children?" She asked in surprise.

"Oh, I guess you've not heard, I'm a father of two," Alex said before I could reply.

"Are you sure they are your kids?, I mean you were away for a long time," Nora said smirking, she was trying to get back at me.

"You should see them, they stole my face," Alex said grinning

"Ah, and apart from betraying their mother just to look like their father, I'd remind you that I don't jump from one man to another like you do my darling Nora."

"Alex, how do you cope with such a rude wife?."

"I told you already, you have to bear it," Alex said then he placed a light kiss on my lips

"Is that what you have to say to your guest?" She asked annoyed

"Our guest? Not for too long sugar, we are about to get busy so you can leave when you are ready." I said then I kissed my husband, he lifted me, kissing me softly. We kept kissing till I hear the front door open then close, I was satisfied I got back at Nora, also proud of myself for standing up for myself.
