Chapter 41
* 5 Years Later *
” You two, over here now! ” She yelled as she ran after the two little kids who seemed to be enjoying how their nanny chased them around the house.
” Myles, Miley! If you two don’t stop right now, I’m going to be forced to take your pets away from you ” She said as she stopped, breathing heavily.
The twins stopped immediately and with a pouty face, they turned to her.
” Please don’t, Nanny Lia ” The little boy addressed as Myles earlier apologized with his cute baby face.
” Please don’t ” His twin sister, Miley Alo pleaded.
” You two!.. ” Nanny Lia hushed, breathing heavily.
” Didn’t I warn you two not to stress your nanny again? ” They heard their big sister’s voice by the entrance and they rushed to her happily at once.
” Sissy Tia ” They chorused and jumped to arms.
She smiled widely and lifted them up at once. ” How have you two been doing? ” She asked with a big smile as she stared at them wholeheartedly like they were her kids.
” We’ve been fine. Where’s mom? Is she working late again? She’s coming home tonight right? ” Miley asked at once, and looking around while her brother supported with a nod as they were eager to know if their mom won’t be skipping home today.
Tia only smiled and poked their cheeks. ” Mom won’t be coming home tonight but does it matter? I’m here ” She said with a smile and their face went down like they were about to cry.
” Not again, she promised to come home ” Miley already had tears on her face.
Tia sighed and ruffled their hair slowly. ” I was just joking, she’s coming home tonight ” Tia said and their face lit up at once.
” Really? ” They asked at once and Tia nodded.
” You tricked us! ” Myles yelled and at once the twins charged at Tia and began tickling her, making her laugh uncontrollably while Nanny Lia watched with a big smile on her face.
*** Some minutes Later **
The twins had fell asleep after Tia prepared a meal for them on their behalf and then prepared a bath for them and then played games with them.
They fell asleep while on that and Tia put them to bed. She sighed softly before bringing out her phone to dial Lyra’s number.
She didn’t pick at the first dial just like she thought. They’ve been really busy this days at work and it’s been tiring.
They got too many projects at hand to take care of and that’s why she and Lyra’s been skipping home.
Lyra only asked her to come home last night and then tonight so the kids won’t get bored.
She dialed her number again and this time around she picked up.
” Tia, you should know I’m pretty busy, what’s it? ” Lyra asked with a groan and Tia chuckled lightly.
” The kids.. ”
” Are they okay? ” Lyra cut her off.
No matter how much of a busy business woman she is, her children are always are top priority. She’s been taking care of them together with Tia ever since they left home.
Lyra already got a big company here in Paris while her other company “L Enterprise” at Australia is still doing pretty well as usual.
They only visit home whenever there’s an urgent meeting at the company back at home and they ensure to leave that very day.
” They want you ” Tia muttered and she heard Lyra’s tired sigh.
” You should know I can’t. Just find a way to.. ”
” I already informed them that you will be coming home tonight. Don’t turn us down please ” Tia pleaded and then hanged up.
” I hope she comes ” She muttered and then crawled up the twins bed to sleep right in their middle, she hugged them to herself.
She has been taking care of the twins like they’re hers, she treats them like family, the same way Lyra treats her.
The twins grew up to know her as their big sister since Lyra also treats her like her sister and they do literally everything together.
They aren’t just friends anymore, they’re family. She’s Lyra’s Secretary at work and her family at home and other family events.
She also has her own brand which deals with jewelries, Lyra started the business on her behalf, with her name. She couldn’t reject it as Lyra refused.
” One day, you’re going to stop being my secretary and I will only address you forever as my blood sister. As my sister, you should have fortunes like I have. Take them for being with me when I needed you the most ” Lyra has said to her and she felt loved.
Tho Lyra runs the business for her, she only interferes sometimes, the business is in her name. She owns the business. The profits are hers and she can proudly beat her chest and address herself as a millionaire.
She has mansions, cars, assets too and all these are gotten from her business and moreover, Lyra pays her a huge amount of money every month even after she had tried to stop her from doing so but Lyra refused and kept refilling her account.
Even after owning all this wealth, she never left Lyra’s side and decided to stay forever.
Tho she will get a family of hers later in the future, Lyra will forever be a big part of her life and her siblings too ( Myles and Miley ). She loves them so much like they’re hers. They’re hers, cause she treats them like one.
She shut her eyes and wrapped their arms around her.
** Later In The Night **
Tia opened her eyes slowly and her arms unconsciously went to the sides of the bed but she felt no presence.
She got on her feet and made her way out of the twins room and walked downstairs and like expected but with a little suprise.
She saw the twins sitting and chatting happily with their mother who had a big smile on.
It shows she had just arrived some minutes ago since she still had her working suit on. Seems the twins gave her no chance to take them off or even freshen up.
She smiled more widely when she noticed the happiness the kids had in their eyes as they chatted with their mom.
Lyra, she looks more happy, pretty, rich, independent, a mother and like an independent Billionaire should look.
She has everything she wants and Tia can’t be more than happy. It only took her some few months to get over everything that had happened to her in the past and she looks really powerful now that not just anybody can step on her shoes.
She’s a well-known billionaire and business woman all over Paris and Australia. Even though, her new established company in Paris has only been four years old, it has gone really far ranking top 5 out of all companies in France.
She achieved this as a result of her affluence before in the past and her big company in Australia.
” Momma is here! ” Myles suddenly said and Lyra raised her head to look at Tia who was lost in smiles as she watched the family.
Yeah, the kids sometimes addresses her as their big sister or momma, they gave her the nickname since they feel she also takes care of them like their mom does.
” Momma, come join us ” Miley called her over and she smile before walking over to them.
She sat beside Miley and ruffled her hair slowly.
” Momma, you know Alex right? ” Myles asked her and she nodded.
” Myles, stop! ” Miley groaned cutely
” Miley likes him ” Myles whispered but loud enough for them all to hear and Tia chuckled.
” Really? ” Tia asked and Miley nodded.
” No I don’t ” Miley protested.
” Yes you do! ” Myles said.
” No I don’t.. ”
” Yes you do..
” No..
” Yes.
Tia couldn’t contain her smile and it was the same for Lyra as she watched her beautiful kids.
Lyra raised her head and her gaze met with Tia who was already staring at her.
” Thanks ” Tia muttered and she smiled before turning her gaze back to her little creatures.
” Mom, we have a dad right? ” Myles suddenly asked and the smiles on their faces vanished.
The ladies glanced at themselves. ” I.. I.. I’m sorry mom. I didn’t mean to ask. I only realized every class mates of ours have dads but we don’t, I promise I won’t ask such again ” Myles said with a big smile on and Lyra only stared at him blankly as her eyes went cold for some minutes.
” M.. mom I’m sorry ” Myles touched her lightly and she snapped out of her thoughts.
She smiled at him. ” It’s fine.. ” She said and then stood up and the kids looked up at her.
” I want to go freshen up, I will be back ” She said and then walked away.
Miley hit Myles on the head lightly and he turned to her. ” I told you not to talk about him, mom doesn’t like when we do ” She said with a pout.
” I forgot ” He muttered and stared as his mom walked away and tears began gather in his eyes.
” She’s mad at me? ” He muttered.
Tia lifted him up and placed him on her lips. ” No she’s not, she’s only tired as a result of working too much, okay? ” She patted his back and he nodded slowly and she wiped his tears for him.
