Chapter 70
The three were through with breakfast and Lena helped Oliver clear the table. Arianna stood up to leave; Lena accompanied her
to the door while Oliver watched her from the dining. He wished he could make her stay longer but he did not want to force her.
There was no need for the hurry; she was still around for the next few weeks so he still had time to do what he wanted. He just
had to get close to his daughter first, and then his wife would be the next.
“Alright Lena, I will come to pick you up later. Be a good girl and don’t talk much so you don’t have a headache, also try to rest,
we had been flying for hours so you must be stressed out,” She advised as she squatted down to her level, holding her
shoulders.
“Don’t worry about me Mom, I am completely fine, now go and have fun with Aunt Rosie, but reserve some for me,” she replied
in her sweet little feminine voice.
Aria chuckled. “I will, okay? I promise,” she said.
“Okay then, goodbye mom,” Lena said with a smile.
Aria could tell that the little girl was excited to spend time with her father. She pitied Oliver because he was about to experience
one of the most stressful times of his life. Princess was not someone to go easy on her prey, she always had something to say.
Aria defined her as a headache, she was very stubborn and hotheaded.
Aria pecked her on the lips and stood up, then she looked towards Oliver and he smiled at her. She turned away immediately
and walked off.
When she had left the house, Lena closed the door and turned back to face Oliver with a stern face. He smiled at her and she
“So... what would you like to do?” Oliver asked, not knowing if it was the right thing to say or not. He came closer to her in the
sitting room with no idea on what to do.
“Don’t talk to me Mr. Gomez, now start talking,” she instructed with a crumpled face.
“Huh?” Oliver muttered in confusion. She had asked him to not talk and also talk at the same time, what exactly is he expected to
do? Talk or not talk?
“Yes, why don’t you try explaining why you sent mommy and I away, tell me why you abandoned us?” she queried.
“Abandoned you? But I didn’t abandon you,” he replied and scratched his head.
“Oh, why don’t you explain why Mom and I had to leave you for as long as I can remember, why did you never care to come and
check on us even for once, you never texted nor messaged, you didn’t even care about me,” Princess fired.
“No my Princess, that is not the truth,” Oliver protested in his defense.
“Then tell me what the truth is,” she retorted.
Oliver sighed and came closer to her. “Alright, let’s get you seated first, then I will explain,” he said with pleading eyes.
She hesitated for a while, then she walked to the couch with the angry expression still on her face, she sat down without
unfolding her arms and stared at Oliver. He went to the same couch and sat on the other end of it, then he turned to face Lena.
He held her hand and sighed, then he looked up to her eyes, they were just like his. “You are right Princess, I am a terrible father,
I had issues with your mom years ago which was totally my fault and your mom decided to leave with you.
She had done that out of anger and I tried my best to stop her from leaving. I guess my best was not enough, I should have tried
harder. But then that wasn’t my only mistake, I knew where you guys lived for all these years and I have had my men follow you
two to ensure that you are safe but yet I did not try to make things right.
Lena, I was being very selfish that I did not think of what you would be facing because of rash decisions that your mom and I
made.
But I have realized my mistakes now and I want to make corrections, I want to set things right with you and your mom, I want us
to live together again as one happy family. Please forgive me Princess, I am really sorry,” he pleaded in an appealing tone.
She was quiet for a while, still making that grumpy face that was quite adorable, then she pouted her lips. “Are you really sorry
for all that?” she asked with scrutinizing eyes.
“Yes my Princess, daddy is so sorry for everything he has done, please forgive me,” he begged.
“Hmm...” she scoffed, “Okay, I would give you a chance,” she said and Oliver smiled.
“Thank you so much my Princess, so we are friends right?” he asked.
“Yes, daddy and Princess can be friends,” she replied with a smile, exposing her beautiful set of sparkling white teeth.
“Awwn, thank you my Princess, Daddy is so pleased to hear that,” Oliver said happily.
“Don’t get too excited young man, there is a condition attached,” she replied and his smile faded.
“Condition?” he muttered.
“Yes. Daddy and Princess can only be friends if Daddy can convince Mom to get back together with him. Mommy intends to take
me back to London after the wedding is over, I really like it there but I want to live with both of my parents, so if you want to be
my friend, then you have to make that happen,” she said
Oliver scratched his head. He knew Aria was very stubborn and it would be difficult to convince her, but this was something he
had to do.
“Alright Princess, Daddy also wants the same thing, to live with you and mommy. But to make that happen, I would need your
help. Will you help me win mommy back?”
“Yes, I will do anything I can to help you, I wouldn’t want anything else than to be with my family, my mom and my dad as well.”
Lena replied.
“Alright then, we have a deal,” he said with a smile and extended his hand for a handshake.
Lena accepted his hand and they smiled. Now they were united, but it was not as difficult as the task ahead of them.
