《Anaya》Chapter 3
Advertisement
Even though her time as a baby passed on peacefully, Anaya still had worries. The most concerning one at of all, was about her Husband, well ex-husband?
It's not like she could call him her husband now that she was at the age zero while he was thirty. That is almost as if calling Hugo a paedophile.
She worried about Hugo, about what the man would be doing now, she still loved him, yet she knew they could never be together. She knew he must be doing well at least physically as she made sure to make her own personal secretary Nain who was extremely loyal to her to look after Hugos schedule and health. Mental front she was not so sure.
Even though Anaya adviced Nain to schedule Hugo to visit a psychiatrist if he was too sad after her death. She was not sure if the man agreed on visiting. After all she did write a long list of things she wanted Hugo to do after her death. Even though she knew that this would make him remember her whenever he looked at that paper, it was still better than him dying out of negligence.
Anaya knew so well about Hugo. In fact she was sure that she knew more about him than his own parents as he was the type to be silent most of the time unless he was with her. So when she is not with him, Anaya knew that the man would get in to a sea of misery not looking after himself. So she had to take precautions by making him promise her to do the things which she asked him to do before her death.
Why she wanted him to find someone to love at that time was because she knew Hugo would become a shell of a man with no one by his side if not. Even now she wanted him to find someone to love. After all she had already died and getting together with her ex-husband after she reincarnated, was something she was not willing to do. As a realist, it was impossible. If you calculate the possibilities she would have to stay at least another fifteen years just to enter the relationship, by that time, Hugo Brooks would be forty-seven of Age.
In that possibility not only he will literally be cursed as a paedophile, her parents might throw him out to prison. After knowing how overprotective her parents and siblings are, Anaya knew for a fact that they would never allow her to be with Hugo again.
So in conclusion, what she wanted now was to live a happy life with her new family and help Hugo find a new love to spend his life with.
Eternal love? Well, sure any woman would be happy to have her husband love only her even after her demise.

Yet for Anaya, it was foolish and boorish and sad to make the one person she loved to live his life alone without even having a kid to take care of him.
If she cant do it, why not let someone else do it instead of her. After all, Love is love, even if it is the second time, if you find the right person, you could always fall in love again.
So she decided, as soon as she was able to talk properly and move without the support of her family, she would play the cupid for her ex-husband.
Breaking from her thoughts, she could see her mother coming over to ger with a pink and white two-piece dress in a hanger with a beaming smile on her face.
Giggling a little, Anaya sat up from her cot to face Callie and to look at the dress she was holding. Although she could not walk still, she was now able to stand up using the help of the rails of her princess bed.
Anaya smiled wide making her mother squeal in delight.
Grabbing her and placing Anaya in her hands Callie started giving her butterfly kisses making the toddler giggle at the ticklish touch.
———————————————————————
In a grand ballroom, almost all of the most influential figures of business, fashion and other areas were gathered making the place lively yet elegant. The high society men and women were chattering around creating connections while having a good time socialising. After all this was one of a rare chances where all sorts of high profile figures appeared. To host such even, a family should both be noble and extremely powerful.
And this was the annual charity ball which was held by the most influential Alexander family who comes from old money and then again has connections worldwide and owns almost half of the business in the country.
Everything was set up in such elegance that no one had no complaints to behold. They were all enjoying the good food and drinks, waiting for the Alexander family to arrive so the charity event could officially begin.
While they were chit-chatting about the benefactor of the charity event the grand ballroom door opened making everyone stop doing whatever they did and look towards the entrance. Everyone couldn't help themselves but gasp in silence at the scene in front of them.
The handsome family head Damien Alexander stood at the entrance wearing a black Armani suit which was sculptured to his well built body making all the ladies gathered swoon at his handsomeness. The demi-god looking man held the tiny waist of his honey ash blond haired wife who looked as beautiful as a nymph in her pure white off-shoulder dress which went up to her knees.
What emits of the guests couldn't stop gazing at was the light blue-eyed angelic baby on her arms dressed up in a cute little two piece. The little Angel wore a long sleeve white undershirt with a cute baby pink dress with rabbit ears as the straps. Her tiny Icy silver blond hair was decorated with a tiny pink clip. With the tiny white shoes on her chubby cute little legs, she was an adorable sight to behold.

Besides them were two handsome boys, one with golden blond hair and the other with the ash blond hair wearing matching black Armani suits just as their father. Both looking as if they just walked out from a storybook where princes existed. They were had a cool and aloof aura despite their age giving the the onlookers shudders.
The spokesmen's voice rang through the mike breaking them from their trance every one was in.
This event, however, Iconicly lead the entire world to call the Alexander family the 'Most powerful Blond Family'.
As comical as it sounds, everyone in the family had a shade of blond hair.
Meanwhile, Anaya was smiling happily in her mother's arms feeling proud of Callie knowing she was lucky to have her best friend as her mother. One thing she hated the most was uncomfortable clothes and the next was kids who were not dressed up as kids.
So when her mother dressed her up in the simple yet cute dress which was extremely comfortable to her skin, unlike other rich kids who would usually be dressed up in princess dresses with fucking tiaras and all, Anaya felt pleased that she couldn't help but keep on smiling throughout the whole journey to the Charity Ball making the idiotic parent duo and the two doting brothers swoon over her while taking videos nonstop from their mobiles.
Everyone wanted to talk and greet the famous family. Although the Alexandra family name was known worldwide, they rarely appeared in public.
And this year unlike the past, the main family decided to grace the ball, where in the past the older Alexander couple would hold the Charity ball in behalf.
It was not like Damien Alexander wanted to hold the event, yet this was a family tradition which had been going on for decades, and this year the older Alexander couple, parents of Damien Alexander were still on a cruise enjoying their 40th wedding anniversary.
Him holding the event instead of his parents was his gift for them for their anniversary. Letting them get out of the responsibility once in a while.
As everyone in the Alexander family knows, Damien Alexander would rather spend his time with his family and his cute little angel at home rather than attending these borish charity balls even if he was the benefactor.
While everyone enjoyed talking to the dashing family, Anaya saw the one person she wished to see the most.
So without giving any thought, she started tapping on her mother's shoulder lightly getting her attention.
Not knowing why her nine-month-old daughter who can only stand up yet still cannot walk wanted to put her down Callie was confused, yet she still compiled, thinking Anaya might have to be uncomfortable after being in her hands for a all this time.
If Anaya's nanny had not being affected by the flue, they would never bring their little girl to the party.
Yet with the circumstances, they were not ready to leave their only daughter in hands of someone else. Even with the most trusted servants around them, Callie still fell uncomfortable leaving her behind. After all, more than half of the security will be with them as four of the members were out. Plus unlike any other babies, Anaya Alexander already was worth several thousand billions. So her safety was not to be taken lightly.
However what happened next startled not only everyone around Callie, yet the whole Alexander family.
The little toddler's tiny voice rang out. With small steps, she walked towards the green-eyed man who looked at the moving cute bun with astonished eyes. Even though his face was stoic as always, his eyes gave away his troubled emotions.
After all, the only one to call him Hee was his deceased wife.
Even without thinking Anaya had taken her very first steps towards the man she used to love from her last life. She only halted when she reached his long legs and hugging it. Looking up, she could see how shaken Hugo was.
Giving a breathtaking smile to the man who looked at her with intense eyes, she made grabby hands asking him to pick her up.
Callies' voice rang up behind her making Anaya look towards her mother. She was smiling gently at the Hugo who was still unmoving with shock written all over his eyes.
Damien who was right behind Callie sulked while holding his mobile still recording her cute baby angel. He was feeling extremely jealousy of Hugo Brooks at the moment.
Callie giggled making the two brothers and their father who were looking at their cute little bunny clinging into the man's leg groan in annoyance.
With Shaking hands, Hugo brooks bent down to gently scoop up the little girl who was still clinging on to his leg.
The man's deep voice rang in a slow yet soft tone.
The little toddler giggled looking straight into the man's eyes stirring his soul into turmoil.
