The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 42

Tracy

I woke up the next morning feeling good, maybe because I was in Alex's arms, the way he held me felt very nice, I rolled away from him quietly and I checked the time, it was 6:40 am.

I was famished and since Alex and the kids were not awake yet so I went to the kitchen to get cookies for myself.

I was in the kitchen eating the cookies when I heard someone's footsteps, I froze wondering who it was but by the time the footsteps got closer I knew it was Alex's.

"Babe?" I called just to be sure.

"Tracy, Are you in the kitchen?"

"Yes, baby," I said stuffing the half cookie with me in my mouth

"Good morning." He greeted me entering the kitchen, I replied but the cookies made it come out as a muffled sound.

"Tracy!, You are eating this early in the morning?"

"I was hungry" I replied when I swallowed

"I'm getting worried but if you are hungry eat all you want." He said hugging me

"Thank you."

"If you want to thank me, we'll have to go back inside and cuddle.".

"I'll like that very much, thank you," I said and he laughed, we went back to our room, we cuddled and we ended up falling asleep.

We woke later in the day and we did our routine, we ate breakfast, played around with the kids, we also taught the children some things.

"I miss Charlie and Williams," Micheal said suddenly dropping his iPad

"Me too, I miss Aunty Tiana, and Grandpa and Grandma," Michelle added

"Uncle Lewis and Aunty Rebecca too."

"Don't worry you'll be seeing them soon.", I said and the kids nodded

The time for dinner was gradually coming closer and I noticed Alex became much more clingy as every minute passed by, even when I was dressing up.

"Come on Alex, it is just one dinner." Even though something was telling me it is more than a dinner

"I know." He groaned

"Don't worry I'll be back soon," I said and he nodded.

"Take my car."

"Okay, sir."

I said my goodbyes and I drove to the location Sam sent me, I was expecting a restaurant but there was no restaurant there.

I called Sam and he came out from one of the houses.

"Tracy!" He called waving his hand as he came closer.

"Hi Sam, I was confused because I can't see any restaurant."

"Oh that, we are having dinner at my place."

"Oh!, You never told me that," I said suddenly feeling very uncomfortable.

"I thought I did, I'm sorry."

"It's okay, let's have that talk, I have to go home soon," I said and he smiled.
