Chapter 18
Hearing the question of Delanie, Scarlett stiffened slightly not knowing how to answer.
“Yes, I’m your step father” Damien Malcolm stepped up and replied causing all eyes to turn to him.
“Honey, ignore him. He is just joking* Scarlett shot him and glare and turned to the kids.
“Miss Blaze seems to have forgotten that we got married on Saturday” Damien glanced at the kids and felt that there is no need to lie to them.
Is better they find out now and start accepting it than later
“Just shut up” Scarlett flared up and yelled at him as Damien’s eyes turned cold.
Even Aiden suddenly looked worried, not knowing what will happen next.
“Mom” Dillan looked at his mother as if asking her to tell them the truth.
“Honey, Sweetie, don’t listen to him ok?” She touched his head and glanced at Delanie by the side.
“Did you really find us a stepfather?” Dillan asked once again.
“No. I didn’t” She replied seriously.
“But he is not lying” Dillan’s eyes looked at her with accusation
It showed how much the young boy didn’t want a step father.
“Dillan, Mom would explain everything to you and your sister ok?” She rubbed his head with a gentle smile and assured them
“Are you sure?” Dillan asked as Scarlett nodded.
To get sincere, she didn’t know how to explain but she felt like she should make things clear with Mr. Damien first and then let them understand the fact that she is not planning to get them a step father not now or ever.
“Uhm! So listen to me and get back to class” She smiled and watched them go back to their classes.
Glancing at Mr. Damien, she walked past him and went to the garage where the car was parked.
She stood with her two hands on her waist while waiting for him to come over.
“What do you mean by what you said?” She asked him directly after he arrived.
“We are married!” Damien told her the fact again without changing his expression.
It was as if he was just letting her know which is indeed what he is doing.
“That’s because, it was your choice not mine. I never agreed to get married to you!” Scarlett rubbed her hair and tried to reason with this man.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Why is he more difficult to deal with than the kids.
“Is not something you have to agree to, it’s something you have to accept whether you like it or not ” Damien looked at her.
“What?”
“The marriage certificate has already been gotten, do you should let your kids know earlier and prepare them and also yourself”
“You are Crazy” Scarlett yelled out frustrated, not knowing the last time she has lost her temper like this.
“Who the hell do you think you are? And why should I even have anything to do with you.
Mr. Damien, know it now and have it in your head.,” She paused and went closer to him.
“I am not going to let my babies have a step father, not now not later!” She declared while pointing at him and stamping her foot to the ground to show how determiner she is.
“Even if I’m going to make Dillan my Heir?” Damien adjusted his tie and asked.
“What?!” Scarlett was left speechless again.
“You know what? I’m not going to argue with you but don’t ever talk about being a step father to Dillan and Delanie. They will never accept you and I will also not accept you.” She glared at him a warning glare for the last time and walked away without even bothering to use his car.
She stopped a taxi right at the school gate and went in ad the taxi driver drove to her destination
“President” Aiden called out cautiously.
“Why did she refuse?” Damien asked plainly
He has everything and many women are rushing to get married to him but she still refused.
He really didn’t understand the problem.
“Huh?” Aiden was startled by his question.
“Maybe because her children are repulsive to the idea” Aiden thought about it and replied.
After all, to all mothers their kids are the most important existence to them.
“Ohh~~ let’s go” Damien said and turned back to the school.
“President are you going back to the school?” Aiden asked as he hurriedly followed behind him.
They returned to the Principal’s office.
“Mr. Malcom?” The principal immediately stood up as he was sweating coldly.
“Bring them over” Damien ordered leaving the old principal confused.
“Who?”
“The president’s children, Dillan and Delanie Blaze” Aiden explained to him.
“Oh yes. I will bring them over” He nodded constantly and hurriedly left the office.
He got to the pre Nursery class and looked at the several kids.
“Mr. Principal you are here!” The teacher who was busy consoling the crying student and teaching them at the sake time walked over to him.
“Yes. Dillan Blaze and Delanie Blaze, Come to my office with me” He called the names with the softest voice he has ever used.
Dillan and Delanie glanced at each other with their cute and round eyes confused, but they still stood up obediently and followed behind him.
They got to the office and 6 eyes turned to look at Damien Malcolm and Aiden Numero.
“Mr. Malcolm, they are here” the principal smiled flattering
“My secretary would talk to you about the school sponsorship but first you can leave” Damien stated.
“Thank you! thank you!” The principal kept bowing until he left the office.
“Uncle, why did you call us?” Delanie was the first to break The silence.
“You don’t want Miss…. no” He paused, “you don’t want your mother to be with me?” he asked straightforwardly
“Mummy doesn’t like you” Dillan said
Damien nodded his head stating that he knows, “And I don’t like her too” He agreed.
“Then why do you want to be a stepfather” Delanie blinked her eyes in doubts.
“Because I need a wife and Miss Blaze, No, your mother came with a heir” Damien was straight forward with his answer.
“What’s a Heir?” Delanie asked him.
“I don’t want to” Dillan refused directly because he knew what it meant.
Aiden who stood aside raise his head and looked at the young boy whose temperaments looked simile to that of the president
He sighed inwardly.
If he is finally trained by the president he will indeed the a force to be reckoned with.
Standing opposite he suddenly felt that you look like Father and son.
He pushed such thoughts out of his mind and continued listening to the confrontation of both the big and The Small.
“You can protect your mother and sister and if you train with me you can be stronger than anybody. So do you agree?” Damien told him the advantages.
He knows that this child is smart and he could understand whatever he said.
As if the worst got to him Dillan kept silent for a while and didn’t reply.
“Just like today” he added.
“Even if you didn’t come, My mother would have taken care of it” Dillan retorted.
Delanie stood by the side and watched the two people while holding a Candy that Scarlett gave her.
“You can’t bully mom!” She stood in front of Dillan and suddenly said seriously.
“I won’t!”
“You can’t bully my brother and I, Mom and Grandpa will definitely kill you” Delanie threatened him cutely.
“Grandpa?” Damien raised his brows
“Yes! My Grandpa_” Dillan hurried over and covered her lips preventing her from saying more.
“We are not allowed to talk about Grandpa” Dillan reminded her as she widened her eyes and kept nodding indicating that she will remember.
Seeing that she wasn’t going to talk another nonsense he let her go.
Damien looked at this and frowned.
Every kid rice talking about the grandfather and this is the first time he has seen one forbidden to do so.
He glanced at Aiden lightly, as Aiden nodded at his signal.
While this was going on, Delanie stood beside Dillan with a wrinkled face while staring at the candy in her hand.
She kept on sighing and sighing as Dillan glanced at her lightly and didn’t bother with her.
He instead looked at Damien,
Looking at it from another perspective, this annoying uncle looks more reliable than that person Grandpa wants mom to marry.
“Uncle!” Delanie stepped forward after a moment of silence.
“I will give you all my candy! But you must treat my Mom and Brother well, and I will be little padded jacket” Sur said and placed a candy in Damien’s hand.
She returned her hands to her pocket and took out several other candies that she hid.
This is the Mr. Damien is so patient with a child.
He took the candy and returned it to her
“I promise you” He slowly and stiffly touched her head.
“You still have to convince Mom” Dillan vluged his cheeks and moved his face away after speaking.
Aiden suddenly received a call and left to answer.
Not long after he returned hurriedly and glanced at the children and then hurried over to Damien’s side and whispered
“Miss Blaze is….”
“What?!”
