Checking statistic and meeting with investors was Ethan's usual stuff to do in the office. He sometimes roam around other facilities and check on the manager's latest reports. He's too busy to call or text his wife, however, his wife would come with the twins and their baby Camilla and all the restlessness will be eased with their kisses and cuddles.
Aria is a great wife. She still manage to look so beautiful despite being busy taking care of the house, their children and even preparing food for him. She did it two to three times a week. Visiting him and cooking for him. He was worried of getting fat, however, he must hit the gym for an hour of his free time.
Aria let him eat with the twins in front of him eating as well and the little one sleeping on her stroller. She fix his table and tell him where she put the stuff that is highly needed and the ones that he should less focused on.
She make sure that he's always on track and that he won't get distracted with other stuffs. After she's done with it in just few minutes, she goes back there and put few more on his plate. Ethan will surely get fat. His sexy abdominal are fading because of how she keeps on feeding him and making sure that he eat the right food for his health.
He pull her small waist close to him and kisses her chest.
"This is delicious." He murmur.
"Of course." She wrapped him into her arms and kisses his forehead. "You are my big boy."
"Damn, baby… you are making me aroused right now." He murmur. She cover his mouth and look at the twins that are playing while eating.
"Shh. Don't say that in front of your kids."
"Sorry." He grinned. "So, where are you all going?"
"Maybe we could stay at the Alvarez Mansion tonight. Of course, you should be there. Catriona is not home and I think Enzo needs help."
"Why does he need help? He have nannies. And you are taking care of three kids."

"And he's also taking care of three kids." She said. Ethan sigh and nodded.
"Okay. I'll be there."
"The kids want to play with the dogs—"
"Okay."
He pull her into his lap and feed her as well. They finish the food that she prepared, and he walk them to the café for their desert. He bought coffee while the twins asked for chocolates. They have two body guards with them and two nannies who watch over the twins.
After their coffee, he escorted them outside the café where the driver is waiting. He kiss the twins and buckle them inside to their baby seat. Then, he wait for their baby Camilla to settle. Then he faced his wife.
"I will be there after work. What do you request for as gifts?" He asked as he caress her hair.
"No." She shook her head. "You always come home with gifts. I only need you to come home after work and call me if you would be late and if something comes up."
"Copy on that boss." He kiss her lips. "Go now."
"Do you want me to go that badly?" She teased.
"No. It will be hard for me to let you go if you stay longer." She giggles and kiss his lips.
"Okay, lover." She gets inside and waved at him. He nodded.
He sighs and was about to head to the office. But a car stopped by the café and he notice the plate number and the type of car. It was under his grandfather's name. A man in the shotgun seat comes out as he open the door at the backseat. A woman wearing a net came out, wearing a net that cover her face. She walk decently toward the café. He look at her from head to toe and her face. He strode fast inside and pushes two body guards and he hold her arm.
"Sir, excuse me." The body guard said and he cover her, but Ethan hold unto the woman's arm tightly as he pull out his ID.

"Ethan Mondragon Alvarez." He said. "And that car was my grandfather's." He said without looking away from her.
"It's okay." The woman speaks and then she turn slowly and hold his hand. The woman hold both of his hand and look up at him.
Ethan was speechless as he look at her. She's wearing a big black shade and a head dress net that covers her face.
"Ethan." She mutter. The voice, the face, the height. It was none other than Anastasia, his mother.
Ethan didn't know how to react at that moment. He reach her mother's hand and look at her for three minutes straight. Then he turn back and went back to his office. He was pacing back and forth as he recalls what happened.
He took his coat and wallet. He came out and his secretary stood.
"Cancel everything today." He said and then he use his private elevator to his car. He didn't find the car in front of the café anymore so he drove all the way to Sabrina's. He found her at the pool sitting with refreshments. Then an iPad was in front of her to monitor Athena sleeping in her room.
"Hey, have a drink." She said. There are two glasses and a newly made smoothie. He sat down in front of her. Was she expecting this moment? She pour him a smoothie and then glanced at the iPad.
"You knew." He said. "When you went to the US you found out about our mom."
Sabrina didn't say anything. What else could she say? Ethan knew now. Ethan took her hand.
"Our grandfather betrayed us. I know it's more painful for you. But, Sabrina. We are all in this together. You don't need to plan all yourself. You don't need to carry all of the burden. Our dad loves mom, even though he betrayed her. Even though he married the woman who killed mom. But all of this happened… we can't take back what we lost but what we lost is not forever gone."
Sabrina put her other hand on top of Ethan's.
"Bro, dad loved mom. Although I don't understand why he would marry Janine—back then… what I understand is his great love for our mother. And I'm sorry I took all of the burden on my own and planned it all alone on my own. I don't want all of you to get hurt as much as I am hurting."
"Sabrina…" Ethan weaned. Sabrina shook his head.
"I am stronger than before. I'm so sorry Ethan for not telling you and Enzo. That might be harsh of me, but I love both of you and I don't want you to get hurt. I know that it's too late but, mom, she's trying to fix everything for us. It's been too long—we know that. But mom," She bit her lip and sniffle. "Mom loves us. I have been harsh to her—I just don't know how to approach her. But we can fix this, okay?"
Ethan wipe away her tears and pressed his lips.
"Does dad know about this?"
"Yes. He's been in the villa every night watching her from afar. It's heartbreaking." She wiped her wet cheek. Ethan nodded.
"Then, when can we meet her?" Although it was heartbreaking and at the same time a euphoria on them—Ethan accepted it quickly. What can he do? But to be happy that their mother is alive and soon enough they will be a whole family again although each of them has their own family.
"Soon enough, let Dad hold her first."
"And Grandpa?"
"Grandpa need to accept it." She said. Ethan laughs a little.
"You surely are a Mondragon." Ethan mutters. "Enzo need to know about this."
"Soon enough." She said.
"And what about Francisco?" He asked. Sabrina smirks. "And Janine?"
Sabrina took the iPad and swipe the screen and show it to him. Ethan was surprised.
"This is just the start." She said.
