Kiara's wistfulness

Oliver's Villa.

Kiara brought Orion home as Oliver asked her and told Mrs. Lee to take him to bed. She sat in the living room waiting for Oliver to come home. Although Kiara knew Oliver will be annoyed to see her there but she still wanted to wait for him.

In the past three years, Oliver never let any women spend a night in his villa. He didn't even allow Kiara to go upstairs, in fact, if it wasn't for her being Orion's godmother Oliver probably wouldn't even let her step into his villa. She thought after Ava left, she would have a chance to mend things between her and Oliver and get close to him once again but to her disappointment, Oliver's heart has turned completely cold, and he became even more indifferent to the outsiders. However, Kiara still was hopeful because at least he allowed her to be around him. She thought maybe one day he will see her love for him and accept her. Sometimes Kiara didn't know why she kept insisting on seeing him and getting close to him when he showed no interest in her at all. It's not like she had a lack of admirers, but she was obsessed with him and just couldn't give him up. Kiara, already made up her mind, in this life if it's not Oliver then she won't let anyone enter her heart.

The night was getting darker and colder when Oliver's black Bugatti stopped in the villa courtyard. He turned off the engine and got off the car. There was slight anger and irritation in his cold face as he entered the Villa.

Kiara saw Oliver entering, she quickly stood up, walked toward him, and said with a warm smile, "Oliver, you are finally back. Done with your office work?"

"What are you still doing here? it's late, go home?" Oliver said in a cold and a little irritated tone which actually shocked Kiara a bit.

Kiara felt really lost, he didn't even offer to drop her home. However, what could she do? Whenever she thought Oliver was warming up to her he would suddenly turn so cold that she would have to stay far away from him. In fact, it's not like she didn't know he was far away from her but she thought she will be able to overcome the distance between them eventually and win his heart.

Kiara masked her shock with a smile and said in a soft tone, "I was just waiting for you to get home safely. Alright now that you are home I'll leave, you should take some rest. Bye."

"Be safe on the road," Oliver said coldly without even looking at her as he walked over the stairs.

Although Oliver has forgiven Kiara for the past, but he could never be the same with her again. In fact, if it was not for Orion he would never let Kiara come this close to him again. Oliver was worried about Orion's growth. The child has no shadow of a mother on him and Oliver couldn't always be around. Surprisingly, Kiara treated Orion really well and Orion was also very comfortable with her. In this way, Kiara was really helping Oliver to take care of Orion, so he has no choice but to let her come and spend time with Orion in the villa or outside. It's not like Oliver doesn't know Kiara's intention to come here but he just overlooked it. As long as Orion was happy he didn't care about anything else.

As Kiara left he heard the noise of running, coming from upstairs, he knew the naughty boy was still awake, he quickly ran upstairs.

After giving a bath Mrs. Lee was trying to coax Orion to bed but the moment he heard his father's car engine, the boy jump out of the bed and refused to go to sleep. Mrs. Lee started to run after him and coax him again but the boy was too naughty to listen.

Oliver came to his bedroom and saw the scene where Orion was running in the whole room and Mrs. Lee was running after him trying to catch him to go to bed. He helplessly shook his head. Orion was too naughty but he didn't have the heart to scold or punish him. The boy was already too pitiful without his mother in his life.

Oliver called out from the bedroom door, "Mrs. Lee leave him, I'll take him to bed."

"Yes, Mr. Knight. Good night." Mrs. Lee sighed and left the room.

"Come on brat, come to bed. It's so late, why aren't you in bed yet?" Oliver said in a gentle voice.

"Because Orion doesn't like to sleep without Dad, and Orion was waiting for Dad to come home," Orion said in his sweet baby voice.

Oliver smiled took off his suit and lay down in the bed with his son. Before, it was Ava who used to sleep beside him but now it was his son who sleeps beside him.

The father and son lay there for a while but the naughty boy was so restless, he kept moving and turning. Oliver knew he was pretending to be asleep. Oliver slowly lifted the quilt and spank on his ass lightly. "Still awake, I am going to beat you now if you don't sleep."

Orion opened his big eyes which were now watery and said innocently, "Dad, you are so bad, Orion is going to sleep now."

With a faint smile, Oliver looked at the boy fondly and put his hand on his head. "Silly boy, tell me is something bothering you?"

Orion fell silent, he slowly opened his eyes and asked, "Dad, where is my mother?"
