Chapter 56: Chapter 56

Millie was so happy at her party. Well, maybe because of the party itself that she really wanted to have since then, and by the fact that she was finally with her father.

But there was still fear in her that is why whenever Enver was out of her sight, she would immediately come to me and look for her. Even when Enver just went to the comfort room. She almost cried when she couldn't find him.

Enver did everything he could to be with Millie’s side all the time. And he is also happy to be with our daughter.

The three of us are now laying in bed. Millie kept asking Enver questions and even though she was already sleepy, she still insisted on hearing Enver’s story.

We already told her everything about our lives before we had her, even Enver’s life when we got separated.

“Baby, it is already late,” I said. “You should be sleeping.”

“But—!” Mommy!”

“Daddy will be here until Monday,” I said. “You can still talk and hang out with each other tomorrow.”

She pouted and frowned. Looks like she still wants to sleep but she finally gave up when she started yawning again. “Okay.” She kissed us and hugged us. “Goodnight, Mommy. Goodnight, Daddy.”

“Goodnight, baby.” I kissed her forehead. “Sweet dreams.”

“Sweet dreams, baby.” Enver kissed her forehead too.

We just waited a little more until she finally fell asleep. And when her breathing was stable, we decided to get up and went to the living room.

“So, do you want to talk about my reason why I hid her away from you?”

He was just staring at me. Feels like he was confused about something but after a while, he just sighed and shook his head. “No, it is okay. You don’t have to explain anything. I know that you only did that because you wanted to protect our daughter.”

“Are you sure?” I sat beside him. “I mean, the main reason why I hid her is because I always thought that you would take her away from me. Well, you know that in my mind you cheated on me. I thought that you chose your mistress over me and even let her live in our house.”

He smiled and hugged me. “You were hurt that time so I don’t mind. I understand so you don’t have to explain everything,” he said. “Besides, I already told you. What happened in the past will not ruin our present. So, I decided not to get mad.”

“En…”

“In addition to that, I will also suffer if I stay mad at you,” he added. “But that doesn’t mean I won’t punish you.”

I frowned and let go of the hug. “What do you mean?”

He smirked. “I mean, this.”

He pulled me towards him. He even spread my leg so I could sit on his lap while facing him.

“Enver!” I glared at him. “Your daughter is in the room.”

“She is sleeping.” He pulled my waist and started kissing my neck. “We will be quick.” He captured my lips and kissed me torridly.

And I responded to his kisses. I put my arms around his neck to deepen our kiss.

His hands started to travel through my body and I can feel its warmth. It makes me feel so hot making me want more of his kisses.

“Mommy?”

Oh shit!

I immediately stood up away from Enver and sat at the other end of the sofa. As I turned our eyes on Millie, she was already opening the door of the bedroom.

Damn it! I really thought she was already in a deep sleep when we left her there.

“Baby?” I called her.

She was still yawning and scratching her eyes while hugging her favorite stuffed toys as she walked toward me. “What are you doing here? Why did you leave me there?”

I looked at Enver and we just laughed.

Maybe Millie thought that her father would leave so she remained alert and immediately got up in her bed when she didn’t see us beside her.

I mouthed ‘later’ to Enver before standing up and lifting Millie. “Sorry, baby. Daddy and I were just talking about some important things.”

“Can’t you just talk beside me while I am sleeping?” she asked and reached for her father so I sat beside him while carrying her. “I am just scared. I just want to sleep with both of you.”

“Will your fear not be erased by my words?” I caressed her hair.

I understand what she felt.

She never asked a thing about her father, not because she doesn’t care, but maybe because she wants me to tell it her personally.

But I know that she is longing for her father. Especially when we were at the mall and we saw some kids carried by their father. Or in the park when we saw a complete family having fun together.

She wants to be with him but she never asked me and she tried her best to make sure that I will not notice it.

And now that she is finally with him, it is understandable that she is afraid of him leaving us again. Understandably, she wanted him within her reach.

She shook her head. “Your words are helping but it is not enough.” She held Enver’s hand. “Staying beside both of you will assure me that we will never be apart from each other.”

I stared at our daughter.

Just what kind of genes that Enver has and why do they mature early than a normal kid?

I am sure that I was not like this when I was still a child. I was a brat to my parents before and my parents often grounded me because I never tried to understand their parenting style to me.

Enver has the same kind of attitude as our daughter. Despite being young, he is already mature enough to handle his responsibility. That is why even though he is not the eldest, he was still the one that his father chose to manage their company.

I sighed and looked at Enver. “She really takes after you.”

He smirked and hugged us both. “Of course! She is, after all, my daughter.” He kissed our forehead. “Don’t worry, Millie. I will make sure that we will always be together.”

That is the one thing that I can assure them both. And I will fight for that no matter what happens, as long as we are together.

“Then, I guess we can postpone our conversation earlier and sleep for the night.” I stood up while carrying Millie and walked toward the bedroom.

Enver followed us and helped me tuck Millie in.

“I love you both,” Millie said. She took our hands and intertwined them on her stomach. “We will become a very happy family.”

Yes, baby. We will surely be.
