Back at the prestigious Alexander Mansion, the two brothers who were sourer than two vinegar buckets openly sulked around looking at the lucky man who was still holding their adorable little sister in his arms.

Not only their cute baby sister was clinging into the man's neck l, but she was also happily sleeping on the crook of the man's neck like a kitten who had finally found her warm safe place. This situation not only made them frustrated, but they were extremely jealous as well.

As everyone in the mansion knew, the little girls' affection was fought for throughout the entire family. Even the calm and quiet Ethan who never bothered to care about others or had any interest in anything other than studies would try to gain his little sister's attention all around making Callie extremely astonished, knowing very well how cold and indifferent her son's personality was. Most of the time it was a battle of favour in the Alexander mansion.

Even though Anaya didn't understand, she held an extremely huge role in the family. As tiny as she could be, Anaya was the one who held the whole family united. Considering Ethen and Owens personalities and their different parents, it was very uncommon for them to get along so well as they do now, However they had already become real siblings with ease after the arrival of their baby sister Anaya. As both of the brothers had apprehended by now, their little sister has to be protected all time. And with their age and power, they could do it at least a bit better, together.

Still stiff from the sensation of the tiny baby who slept calmly on his embrace, Hugo questioned Ethen with a hoarse voice. After all, this was, in fact, his first time holding a tiny creature as this. Even though he already had a younger sister, he had barely interacted with her when she was an infant. As their age difference was not more than five years, Hugo's parents did not let him hold her or be near her when she was a baby thinking that he would drop her or unintentionally hurt her. This overprotectiveness, however, did too much damage than good for the two siblings. And with Hugo's nonchalant personality, as he lost the interest once, he never bothered about his sister afterwards.

Sure after some years he spoke and acted as siblings when he was not busy. But other than that they were much of distant relatives than two same blood sharing siblings. They didn't have the bond which a usual brother-sister have.

Ethen, however, didn't care for the stiff man and wanted to drag his sister away from him as soon as possible. Even though he was just the age of eight, he was a very bright kid. Just from the way his uncle has enclosed both his hands around his tiny sister he understood how inexperienced the man was.

Knowing it was his chance to take back their little sister, Ethen offered with bright eyes. Owen who was next to him still drowning on vinegar, knowing what his brother was up to, nodded his head in agreement.

Hugo subconsciously held the tiny one a bit tighter not understanding that he had already got attached to the little furnace kinda warmth which surrounded his neck.

Conceding to the man's words Ethan had no choice but to retreat. With a sigh, he led Hugo into Anaya's room with Owen following behind muttering curses to the gods above not for giving them a chance. After all both the youngsters knew very well that their mother would not stand still if any of them her angelic daughter cry.

Especially since unlike other babies, their tiny sister Anaya rarely cried. She would whine a little when she was uncomfortable, however, crying was not something Anaya did. At first, the family was worried as it was contrasting with the usual habits of a newborn and made sure to get a few specialists to check on her. However, they all concluded that she was a very healthy newborn and her habit of not crying was not something to be alarmed of.

Hence if anyone managed to remotely make Anaya cry, they faced the furry of the Madam of the house. And the Wrath of Callie Alexander was not a very pleasant experience to go through.

Ethan remembered this one time when their dad Damien got too excited over her little angel calling him 'Papa' with her soft pink cheeks puffed like a ripened cherry, he couldn't help himself but squeeze his little daughters cheek. But unfortunately, he had not suppressed his strength and Anaya had started tearing up in pain. And this all happened when Callie showed up at the home after work.

As a punishment, their dad was not allowed to come near Anaya throughout the whole day and the next day as well. Hence, making the little princess of the family cry a very taboo thing to do. And only after the guilt-ridden Damien bought couple dozen toys for his little princess apologising over and over, Callie forgave him.

Not that their little sister was mind. She was very sweet to her dad afterwards as if to make him come out of his guilt-ridden heart. This however made the two brothers extremely jealous as their dad hogged up their little sister for a whole week afterwards by outright putting leave and playing with her the whole day. So Ethan and Owen solemnly swore that they would be more cautious to not let Anaya cry for any reason.

When Callie and Damien reached home after being the hosts of the gala which was very successful this year, the sun had already gone down. Even though the couple wanted nothing more than to rush back home, they still had to complete the responsibilities as the Alexandra family heads.

So when they finally came inside their mansion and dismissed the bodyguards the couple didn't bother to go change. They both rushed into their angelic daughter's room wanting to see their children. As Callie and Damien knew by practice that their two boys would be where ever their sister was. However, surprisingly they found her room empty. Hence they went into all the rooms where the three siblings would usually hangout. However, they could not find them anywhere.

This made them panic a little not knowing what was happening. Thinking of calling the maids, Damien took out his mobile as they were not to disturb the kids unless they needed anything.

However before he could dial, the main butler of the family Jonathan appeared in front of them with his usual gentle smile.

Jonathan who had been serving the Alexander family for more than thirty years was a gentle-looking man. He was tall and slender, yet with his extremely efficient work, it was hard to tell that the man was over fifty years old. He always wore his butler suit and had his hair which was half grey now combed back showing off his handsome and gentle face which always sported a gentle yet professional smile.

Callie and Damien both asked in astonishment. Nodding his head to confirm, Jonathan led them towards the library and slowly opened the door without making a sound so he would not disturb the ones who were inside.

The couple who was looking at their butler's actions at first did not understand why the man had to be that cautious, library or not this was their home, hence a normal rule of a formal library did not apply here.

Their kids were allowed to run or shout or do whatever they wanted inside the house including the library. As they all had separate rooms, if they wanted a calm and quiet place, they could always accomplish that by just staying inside their rooms, without specifically going to the library they all shared. Plus this place was much more of a book storage place than a library. As anyone can do anything inside if they wished to.

But moments after when they got a clear glance of the room inside, the parent duo understood why their butler was trying not to make any sound.

Hugo, who now was sitting in the corner recliner chair had their small angel in his embrace. The toddler was sleeping soundly while leaning on his torso.

The man had his arms looped around the tiny toddler as if to guard her against falling. A soft off white throw covered both the babies and man's waist down creating a beautiful sight.

Not only that, the two brothers who appeared to have been reading while laying on the soft wool rug as they had books all over the floor around them had fallen asleep. The sweetness of this was that the two youngsters who were now deep sleep had positioned themselves unconsciously to a point where both their heads were touching together.

As for Hugo Brooks, he seemed to be in peace while having a nap with his head leaned on to the chair head.

Smiling up until her eyes were turned into crescents in gleam, Callie signalled her husband who was pouting behind her to retreat from the area. Not in hell was she going to let her husband disturb that peaceful setting just because he was eating vinegar. With Jonathan softly closing the door behind them, Callie dragged Damien back towards the living room.

Grabbing a seat on the luxurious nineteenth Centauri Chippendale style Camelback sofa and patting beside her to indicate her husband to have a seat, Callie probed.

Damien cut through in the middle of Jonathans report still displeased on the fact that the Ice cube got to spend all the time with his angel and his two sons while he had to suffer listening to boorish human flatter at the Charity Ball. The only part he enjoyed on this evening was the time he got to dance with Callie enjoying his gorgeously stunning wife being close to him.

The butler replied with a bit of a sigh. And with that, Callie broke into a fit of laughter until tears started coming out of her beautiful eyes. Even Damien who laughs rarely couldn't help but leave out a chuckle.

Jonathan who waited for his Mistress to finish laughing continued in the meantime making the couple some Earl Gray to drink.

Hugging Damien's waist Callie smiled with a nod at the family butler who had been serving the Alexander Family for generations. She felt thankful for the man as she knew that he served and protected all her children well.

Thanking the man, Callie straightaway started plotting. After all, she would not let this chance go by so easily. After all, this was the first time she got ahold of Hugo's time after a complete two years. Although they sometimes met due to business reasons, she never had the chance to drag the man back to her home so she could help him soothe out of the pain of losing his wife.

Damien while sipping the tea gracefully complained totally ruining his elegant image with the pout his serious face was holding now.

Caressing her husband's hand Callie soothed out the sulking man. Her eyes were already pooling with tears as she spoke of her best friend who she loved so dearly. Knowing that his wife was trying to help the Hugo get through with his pain, Damien couldn't help but sigh in defeat and agree. After all, he could not help but feel heartbreak whenever he saw his wife's heartbroken painful eyes when she spoke of her deceased best friend who was close to her as a sister.

Caressing away the non-fallen tears away, Damien agreed. But with this, he did not forget to put a defeated look on his face as well. Looking at the big baby, Callie couldn't help but kiss the mans face with loud smooches just to make him feel better. After all, she knew how much her husband adored their daughter.

cuddling into the man's embrace Callie whispered making the man nest his chin on her head and kissing her hair. After all, they both loved each other unconditionally. Even Callie was surprised how much she loved him as she was sure after her first husband's death, she would not be able to move her frozen heart.

And this was one reason why she wanted to help Hugo. After all, knowing that one could always found a second love, how could she let down her best friends last request?
