Mr. President You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123: 123- Long-Lost Buddies

"Ex... excuse me!" Gerard tried to smile and there were tiny beads of sweat on his forehead gliding down to his temples.

"Don’t remember me, baby? It’s not even a month since we had such a good time at your place," Marissa didn’t want to be judgmental, but the way Gerard was acting, it was clear that he wanted to hide it.

He knew this girl.

"I ... I think..." he chuckled awkwardly, "you are mixing me with someone."

"No, I’m not," she brought her face near his and grinned like she was enjoying his discomfort, "You told me, your name is Simon, but I saw your ID. It was Gerard," she then turned to look at Marissa and winked, "Am I right, baby girl?"

She asked for confirmation and Marissa could only nod and then started sipping her soup. Poor Gerard might be looking for ways to get rid of the girl and Marissa was sure that she wouldn’t go away unless Gerard paid her handsomely.

"So, Gerard. Tell me did you like it that night?" her fingers had started traveling on his face contours and Marissa was seated there feeling odd.

"I’ll appreciate it..." Gerard picked up a napkin and wiped the sweat off his forehead, "if you leave us alone."

"But that day you didn’t want to leave me alone. All night, all day you kept screaming..."

"Enough!" Marissa dropped her spoon in the soup bowl, "You need to talk to him, lady? I respect that. But not when he is having personal time with his friends."

The girl frowned and looked at Marissa, "Friends?" and then it dawned on Marissa. This girl was trying to blackmail Gerard quite subtly, thinking that he was here with his girlfriend.

"Yes. I’m his friend and I’m happy that he had a good time with you THAT night..." Marissa rested her back on the seat, "Now if you leave then I’ll be highly obliged."

Marissa kept drumming her fingers on the table surface eying the girl with a smile. The girl sighed and slapped Gerard’s shoulder.

"You are a lucky dog, man." She said and then started taking back steps, "but we’ll meet again, Gerard."

She turned on her heels to join someone else at another table.

When Gerard looked at Marissa she had resumed drinking the soup.

"God! That was embarrassing!" he chuckled and wagged his head with wide eyes.

For some reason, she had started missing Rafael even more. She couldn’t wait to tell him what just happened.

Wait! Was she really this insensitive to share such details with Rafael who was there just for the sake of the kids and due to the guilt that he had been absent from their lives?

His easy-going smile, the way he kissed her, the way his hand used to crawl...

"Are you alright?" Gerard’s voice broke through her thoughts.

She blinked and nodded at him, "Oh yes, I’m fine. Just a bit tired, I guess." _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

"Long day?" she could see sympathy in his eyes.

She slowly finished her soup, feeling a pang of guilt for not being present for him, mentally, "Sort of."

"But it’s the weekend, Mar." he waited when the waiter started placing their order.

"Yes. But remember? I’m a mom."

"Ah, yes. Thanks for reminding me. It’s been a while since I met the kids. How are they? Are they still meeting their father?" he asked her between the bites.

"Of course, they are," Actually, he was home when I came down to meet you.

Yes. Because I found it extremely unethical to send you back. Oh, Lord! Wasn’t it equally bad to think of someone else in his presence?

Her heart was now fluttering in her chest. What Rafael must be doing now? He must be sad without me.

Is he giving a tough time to Sophia?

Sophie will kill me once I go back home.
