Chapter 52 – Chain of Paper Family (Sky‘s POV)
“Dad, will you attend the board meeting for me?”
He was walking in the garden early in the morning when I ran into him while doing my early jogging. If Dad says no, it is a sign from heaven that I must stop myself from making a crazy decision.
“May I know why?” He asked, smelling the roses. “Anj Perry,” I breathed out, placing my hand at the back of my neck. “It‘s crazy, but she asked me if I could pretend to be the kids‘ daddy and attend the family day with them.”
“Asking me if I would like to attend the board meeting so you could go to that event, it must be important to you,” He raised his eyebrows, confusing me when all he has to do is say yes or
1. no.
“Dad,” I sighed. “I know it‘s crazy, but I just can’t imagine those kids waiting for a dad when no one really knew if they have.”
“Okay,” he said and fixed his eyes on the flowers again.
“Just okay?” I smirked, raising my eyebrows that he did not oppose my crazy plan.
He looked at me again and narrowed his eyes before answering. “Just okay.”
I groaned, taking a deep breath as I closed my eyes. Then, I heard him chuckle. “Make sure those girls will enjoy their family day, Sky. Leave a really good memory for the girls before Anj Perry decided something crazy again.”
“Huh?” My eyebrows knitted, confused with what he said, but he shook his head, laughing again.
“Don‘t mind me. Go to them, and I‘ll surprise everyone in the meeting,” He tapped my arm before turning his back on me, walking to the other side of the garden.

When Frank checked the schedule of the Family Day event, I panicked. I should have called her
this morning to at least ask about the time and where it will be held. Now, we were rushing and failing to buy some sweets for the girls, as Dad told me.
“That’s Anj Perry?” Frank, who usually doesn‘t talk, squinted his eyes, pointing at the beautiful woman wearing pink T–shirts and shorts, exposing her flawless skin.
“Yeah!” I answered in a hurry, ignoring his way of asking, and ran to her as she walked toward her children. I didn‘t know what got into me that I grabbed her forearm, turned her to me, and when I was already facing her, I held her face.
“Pumpkin, I‘m sorry for coming late,” I said and pulled her to me, giving her a quick kiss on her lips. “I had to find someone to attend the board meeting, and...” Oh, great! “My acting is too much, right?” I asked, wiping her tears.
She surprised me when she wrapped her arms around my neck, crying as if she missed me. I moved slightly away from her, smirked, and hoped to kiss her again. She has soft lips, and her

lipstick must have a flavor of strawberry that I wanted to nibble and suck on her lips.
“I realized I‘m a lunatic guy,” I told her and looked at her children, open–mouthed as they eyed us.
“Mommy, why is Sky here?” Leyanne. I recited to myself, remembering her eyes.
“I had to show up, or else your mom will divorce me,” I told her, squatting, remembering what Dad said I had to do to reach their height. He has given me plenty of tips on my way here. and gave me information about the triplets. As much as I wanted to ask him why he knew so much, I concentrated on the information he gave me. “But we only hired you,” Lyra Helene. They all have round eyes, but hers haunted me, reminding me of Angela. I showed them the coins they gave me and placed them back in their pocket.
Among the three, Selene was the only one who did not come to me. I had to say something, or this family reunion would be a mess for them. “It‘s a long story.” “You‘re not our dad. If you‘re our dad, you would have recognized us the first time you saw us, but you didn‘t,” Selene said with a pang in her voice. “I‘m sorry. I‘m sorry, Selene. It‘s a long–” “How did you know?” Leyanne gasped, and it took me a few seconds to realize her question. I laughed nervously. “You‘re my children. How would I not know, Leyanne.” As if testing me, she said she was not Leyanne but Lyra Helene. I tousled her hair. “Nice try, kiddo, but you’re my Leyanne, and she‘s my Lyra Helene,” I held her hand, feeling strange that I could really identify them. “How would we know mommy didn’t hire you to be our daddy today?” Selene asked, surprising me with her behavior. “Yeah, how would we know it?” A question from a male voice annoyed me. My eyebrows raised at the man standing behind her. My eyes darted at how close he was to her, and I didn‘t know what went into my confused brain, pulling Anj to me and claiming her mouth.
This time, it was not a quick kiss. I molded my mouth into her like I was crazy for her and tasted her soft lips. When she parted her lips and welcomed me, my tongue took the opportunity to explore her mouth. She tasted so sweet that I wanted more.
She moved slightly away from me, cupping my face. “I think that‘s enough proof?” she said, licking her lips, making me crazy. “Can I have more after the event?” I whispered, wishing to tell her I was serious. I
could not recall the last time I got this crazy over a kiss, wanting a woman so much that I wanted us to escape this place and be alone for a while. Finally, I got Selene‘s attention; wanting me to carry her. When I did, I kissed her cheek, not understanding why I felt this way, feeling overwhelmed with happiness that I uttered,” There‘s my baby girl.” Leyanne and Lyra Helene joined her, wrapping their arms around me. I wanted to scoop them in my arms, wishing I was their real father and hating whoever their bastard father was, leaving their beautiful mommy raising them alone.
As the event started, I held Anj‘s hand and my other hand to Leyanne. We walked toward the stage to participate in the games, and funnily, we looked like a chain of paper family, walking
