Vicky laughed,
Oscar was about to say something else when his phone vibrated in his pocket.
“Daddy loves you so much, and I am going to do all it takes to protect you, my love.” He leaned closer to her and kissed her forehead.
“I need to see who is calling.” He said to Vicky before excusing himself.
“I thought I was so protective of you but I have seen someone whose energy is more than mine.”
“No dates for me?” Sophie frowned at her mother.
“You are too young to be worried about all of that. Daddy is just being overly possessive. But everything is going to go well for you, my love.”
“I will make sure we get matching bracelets when we go shopping okay?” Sophie smiled, nodding.
“Thank you, Mommy.”
“Anything for you, my love.”
“Have you had breakfast?”
“Gracie said food is almost already.”
“Okay, let’s watch some cartoons together.”
Seeing the caller ID, Oscar strolled to the pool area to answer the call. “What in the hell did I do to deserve this maltreatment from you?” “What is it, Dora?”
“Really? That is all you have to say? You treated me like I don’t exist and here you are, sounding cool.”
“Or you want to say you didn’t get my messages and my voice calls?” “You knew I wanted nothing to do with Mom and yet you let me talk to her!”
“Is that why you have been ghosting me? You need to grow up, Oscar! She was there with me and insisted that she wanted to talk to you. I can’t pressure you to forgive her. But you should understand that I won’t be part of the enmity you both are trying to keep.”
“I was angry about that but I wasn’t ghosting you. There is just so much going on with me. Vicky’s recovery, trying to make it up to my daughter, and trying to keep them safe.”
“It’s fine! I have been trying to reach out to you because I was worried about you but something came up yesterday. Before I go into detail, How’s Vicky? I hope she is recovering well.”
“Yeah, She is better now. I’ve just gotten insanely possessive with her now that she is expecting twins.”
“Twins?????!”
“Oh my God!”
“Yeah, we are having two babies. We recently found out.” Oscar said proudly. He was expecting Fedora to say something, instead, he heard her sobbing.
“Dora?”
“You are not really doing that, are you?”
Oscar didn’t get any response. Instead, he heard her sniffle. “I….I don’t know what to say, Oscar. But I’m so happy for you.”
“I know how hard you have struggled, and seeing your love story fall in place for you makes me so happy.”
“Having three kids with Victoria is the best life you can ever think of having. I am sure she won’t have reasons to refuse you anymore.” She said, sniffing.
“Vee and I are getting married soon. She said YES!”
“You see that delay isn’t denial? I’m so proud of you for not giving up.” “Thank you too for not giving up on me.”
“I am glad for you, Oscar. I’m really happy for you.”
“I can’t believe I’m an aunt to twin Babies.” She chuckled.
Oscar smiled, “Same here. I can’t believe I’m going to be a twin Dad.”
“It’s good news indeed. My warm regards to Victoria and Sophie. Please let them know that I can’t wait to meet them.”
“I know you will meet them soon. Sophie’s birthday is coming up shortly, Vee and I are going to have an engagement party and then there’s the wedding.”
“But I will let you know when we have a date fixed for the latter.” “I will be anticipating your response.”
“So will you be returning to California soon? Even if you plan to, I would suggest you hold on for a while because there are -lots of issues that need to be solved.”
“I’ve started doing my best on them and as much as I try to keep it away from you, I think you will come to know about it eventually.”
“Come to know what? What is going on?” Oscar asked, his heart beating erratically.
“There has been some news circulating about you. Ingrid claimed you were violent with her when you both were married. She gave a nasty interview portraying you as a very violent man who appears innocent to the public.”
“She said she was pregnant for you but you made her abort the child. Then you divorced her, because of an Aussie woman who is a gold digger.”.
“She’s totally insane!” Oscar scoffed!
“Now you see why I’m so pissed with mom? I mean, if not for the fact that the company was going bankrupt and прот forced me to marry her, why in hell would I have a business with that psycho?”
“I know you wouldn’t give a damn about the situation especially when you have Vicky and your kids to focus on. But you know Ingrid is quite influential here too and she is everywhere, making a nuisance, tampering with your integrity.”
“I am in talks with the PR team. I hate how she is toying with your integrity. She went as far as crying in the silly broadcast. Like, she got even more than what she deserved from you from the divorce, and here she is acting nasty!”
“It’s been a few days since I spoke to my lawyer but I am going to reach out to him shortly. I honestly don’t care about what Ingrid is saying but she needs to be taught a lesson.”
“We never shared a room the few times I stayed in the same house with her so I wonder where the pregnancy came from. I don’t remember having any conversation with her to get rid of any baby either. She has a son from past affairs and I made it known that he cannot be my heir.”
“My marriage to her was that of convenience, for the benefit of the company, and it was stated in one of the contracts that in case I don’t have any offspring, then her son is going to be my heir. I am glad I have Sophie and two more on the way to discountenance that.”
“I honestly don’t care about what she is saying or what she is putting out there. But I’m going to take action because of Vicky and my kids.”
“Even though the news she’s spreading is false, I don’t want Vicky to hear about it. I’m afraid it’s going to get to her when it means nothing.”
“I will have my lawyer take care of it. Ingrid thinks she’s smart. She knows the police are after her and that is why she is trying to play the victim. She is going to go down for all that she’s doing. I promise.”
“That’s not all.”
Oscar sighed, “Let me guess, there is something fishy relating to Greg.” “How do you know?” Fedora asked.
“They are my top two enemies so it is easy to suspect them. I have my guys trailing Greg but I haven’t reached out to them for feedback. What did he do?”
“The cops came to the house earlier today for questioning. He pressed charges for assault against you and tagged me to be a witness.”
“I will have people take care of him. It is evident that he is the one pushing Ingrid to act the way she is acting.”
“I can wait for both of them to get what they deserve so you and Vee can enjoy your lives.”
“Same here. But I know it’s going to happen real soon.”
“Thank you for being strong, Oscar. You are definitely handling this better than I imagined. I promise you that I was going crazy already. And knowing about the twins!!!” She sighed.
“This is definitely a very beautiful time for you and Vee to make up for all the love you missed and also make good memories. I don’t know why they are still hovering around you both when they could actually marry themselves since they are no different from each other.”
“I know their aim is to ruin me and I am not going to give them the satisfaction. I have more important things to be grateful for. But I am sure all of these will be over soon.”
