ORPHANAGE GIRL

Chapter 26

Charles dropped me home around 8. The ride back to home was quite silence just he occasionally kissing the back of my hand.

These smalls things he do, like kissing my forehead, caress my hair and kissing my hand, these what matters and makes my stomach flutter with butterflies.

When I reached home Freya was not there, so I straightly went to my room changing in my PJs.

**********

Charles (POV)

I was driving to my parents' house. I got a message from my dad's PA that my Father wants to see me.

I don't get well along with my Father, there's never been much of a son and father relationship, it is more like a business relationship.

I was planning to ask Olivia if she could stay for the night but this message ruin that.

My drifted back to those moments where she clutched me tightly whenever she was getting emotional. To be honest I didn't even watch the movie, I was watching her and how adorable she looks when her eyes twinkle at the mere mention of Shawn.

Her smell is so intoxicating that I feel like keeping her close to me every time. Her lips are so soft that I'm scared that I might bruised them.

God, finally I can call her mine.

I reached my parents' house, the guards open the gate, letting me in

Parking my car, I hop out the car, straightening my suit.

When I marched towards the front door, I remember I have brought Olivia here once to meeting my sister. Smiling I ring the bell, which was opened by the Butler.

He said mom was in the kitchen and Father was in his office.

Firstly, I went towards kitchen to see my mom preparing for dinner. My mom have always devote all her time and love for this family.

"Charles" her eyes lit up when she saw me approaching

"Mom" I went towards her, hugging her little frame.

"Oh I missed you" she said rubbing my back in affection. My mom has always been overly emotional towards her both children

"I missed you too Mom" I rest my chin on her head

"Liar. You don't have time to visit your old mom, nor do you call" she pulled away glaring at me

"Sorry Mom, busy with work. You know" I tell her to which she smiled nodding at me

"John messaged me saying Father wants to talk about something important. Do you have any idea about what?" I asked her

Her eyes filled with sadness and sympathy

"You should talk to your Father directly" with that she went back to kitchen

I looked confusedly at my mom, then walked towards my Father's office

I knocked twice, when I heard muffled come in.

"Dad, you wanted to see me" I said as soon as I entered the room. There was no time for pleasantries so I came straight to the point.

"Ah, Charles. Have a seat" my Father said looking up from his paperwork removing his glasses.

I took a seat in front of him, waiting for him to start.

"Mr. Reed called today" he speak

My heart started to beat fast, but I try to compose myself, letting him to continue
