The Billionaire's Ex' Biggest Mistake

18| Just like you

He planted a kiss on Simone and Nora’s forehead and cupped his chin. His gaze later turned towards me.

Good thing I thought I was lost but found in their midst.

“They’re beautiful. Just like you.” He complimented the kids and I nodded, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. After a while, he added, “Am sorry.”

I lifted my head from the Mable tiled ground to his face. What did he just say?

Oh Wow. The Dawson I know would never apologize for anything for no reason. He hasn’t given me his main reason why he said sorry.

I assume to know, so I shook my head. I believe he’s fed up of me nodding my head without saying anything. Not even a single thing yet. He’s the only one doing the talking.

I shyly took my face away, busy staring at a random place as the cool breeze sweeps my hair over.

“Look, I know I offended you in the past—”

I cut him out, “Can we just go inside?” Now I understood his driveway. “It’s too sunny out here and my kids are fragile.” For sure, they are.

“Our kids,” He corrected, then I rolled my eyes. Whatever.

After he gestured us into the mansion, we met his father, Arthur Anderson, at the staircase. Descending down with his daughter, Jenner who never liked me.

I assume she does now as she wore a bright smile that widened her eyes. “Laura, it’s really you?” She gasped, running down to give me a hug.

Why am I so loved and important to them now? These are the people that threw me out of their mansion after the misunderstanding that happened between me and Dawson.

I remember that Jenner was the one that hated me the most. She never liked me after the tantrums Blanca made me commit.

She hugged me tightly like I was gonna be taken away by the wind. “I missed you. Thanks for being here.”
