    Chapter 64 – The First Gift


    (Sky‘s POV)


    “Woah!” The triplets beautiful round eyes widened as we entered my penthouse. I seldom used this


    ce, and not even once that I brought a woman here. This was my haven, a ce I could call my own


    man cave, that not even Line knew this ce.


    Finn smirked, entering the house and cing the bouquet of roses on the living room‘s center table. He


    walked to the kitchen, and I bet putting the cake box on the kitchen ind.


    Anj sat quietly on the couch, her eyes wandering in the living room as she nced at her kids from time


    to time as they ran around, giggling happily inside the room. My lips curved into an undeniably happy


    smile, so overwhelming that I felt my heart was full of happiness. I never thought my living room with kids


    running around would be an exciting sight for me. Sitting on the arm of the couch, I stood up. “I have a


    surprise for you, kids,” I said, gesturing my hands toe to me and pretending not to notice their


    mother frowning at me. They all ran to me, following me to the hallway leading to the bedrooms. I gave


    Frank three hours early this morning to turn the guest room into a bedroom that the girls could not resist.


    My heart was pounding as I had not seen it yet, and if he failed to amaze my children and me, this would


    be the second time I would get disappointed in him. I opened the door, but I let the triplets push the ajar


    door to open it wide. “Woah!” I was not sure if it was the triplets or me, but how the interior designers


    managed to decorate the room in a short span of time was something incredible.


    The girls squealed in delight, running to the beds with their names on each headrest. I could still see the


    needed changes, like the wallpapers, flooring, and dressers, but the carpet, bed sheets, and stuffed toys


    but the room decor have done their purpose, luring the kids into a magical ce known as having a


    bedroom of their own. “Mommy! Mommy!” Leyanne called, jumping on top of her bed.


    “Mooommmmmyyyyy!” screamed Selene,ughing happily like her sisters as shey down and rolled to


    her bed.


    “What‘s this, Sky?” Anj asked, looking not happy with what she saw.


    “Yeah...” Finn opened the door wide and leaned on the wall as he watched the girls climbing down the


    bed and dashing toward the toys. “What‘s this, big brother? What are you doing?”

    “Mommy, can we take this big bear at home?” Lyra Helene asked as the three hugged the giant teddy


    bear sitting in the middle of other toys. Perhaps their excitement was overflowing that they did not mind


    her not answering Lyra Helene.


    Leyanne ran to me. “Where‘s your bedroom, Daddy?” “Next room. Come on, check out the other rooms.


    Just be careful, okay?” I told them, and the girls walked past us, excitedly running in the master‘s


    bedroom direction, leaving the three of us alone in the bedroom.


    “What are you doing, Sky?” hissed Anj, closing the door. “You said we‘re just having lunch. What‘s this?”


    she snarled, looking at the bedroom furiously.


    “A gift,” I said, sitting on the edge of the bed in Selene‘s bed.


    “A gift?” Finn creased his forehead. “Don‘t you think this is too much? No offense,” he raised his hands,


    smiling sheepishly at Anj. “But I know how my brother‘s crazy in giving gifts to women, but not this ce,


    and not with a woman with children.”


    “Finn!” I growled at him, standing up and wanting to punch him in the face, but he had a point. I don‘t


    understand myself as well. If Line knew about this, she would surely throw a fit.


    “We‘re going home,” Anj sighed deeply, walking out of the bedroom to find her children.


    I groaned, lying in bed as I pinned my eyes on the ceiling. I could see lots of glow–in–the–dark stickers,


    something the girls would go crazy aboutter at night. “Say it! Just say I’m crazy,” I hissed at Finn, still


    standing and leaning on the wall.


    He smirked. “Yes, brother, you are crazy, but I‘ll probably do the same thing,” He crossed his arms to his


    chest. You just gave me an idea, Sky.”


    My eyebrows raised, getting up to look at him. “What are you up to, Finn?”


    “I‘ll go straight to the point, Sky. The first time I saw Ms. Perry, I fell in love with her, and I don‘t care if she


    has three children, but I‘ll be pursuing her. If I need to buy Disnend for the girls, I will do it to set my


    cap for her.”


    “You‘re crazy,” I shook my head.


    “May the best man win then?” He squinted his eyes. “But seriously, Sky, you can‘t win at me this time.


    What will you do with Line? Break the woman‘s heart?”


    I punched his arm lightly. “I‘m giving this ce as a gift, Finn, not marrying her. Anj Perry is an interesting


    woman; her children are adorable, but she’s not the marrying type. Let me have my fun.”


    Finn raised his eyebrows, holding his chin as he looked at me. “You mean you‘re not really the kids‘


    father?”


    I scoffed at him.“I don‘t know who the bastard father of those children is, leaving Anj to raise the kids


    alone,” I said, holding the knob. “Let‘s just say she gave you a chance to pass that subject, so I simply


    reciprocate the favor.” Not giving Finn a chance to talk, I walked out of the room to find them. I breathed


    in relief when I saw her bag on the couch, which meant they were still around the house. I followed the


    triplets‘ voices and found them in my study room.


    Her children were lying with their stomachs on the carpet, flipping the pages of a Geography book, while


    Anj was standing, staring at the big picture frame hanging on the wall behind the executive office table,


    and just like her, I had just seen it only now.


    Frank must have thought of this idea, printing the picture he had taken yesterday. Anj smiled at me while


    my eyes were pinned on her beautiful face, looking at her like an in–love husband. The kids were


    happily smiling, looking at us. It was perfect! It was beautiful!


    I remembered the exact thoughts I had at the time he took the picture. The moment I saw Anj, I fell in


    love with her.


    Breathing out, I walked quietly in her direction and stood beside her.


    “I will let this slide, Sky. Only for today, but please, tomorrow, let‘s not see each other,” Anj whispered,


    raising her hand to wipe her tears. I nodded, agreeing with her. As much as I wanted to have my fun,


    seeing her looking so happy, sad, and in pain at the same time confused me that I hated myself for


    hurting her.
