Chapter 18 - Chapter 17

"Mom, when will dad come home?" Evelyn asked, looking at the door.

"He should have been here by now, let me check where he is," Sara took her cellphone to call him, but at the same time a message popped up saying Blake 's meeting just ended and he would meet them both at the venue..

"Come on, let's go, your dad is not coming home, he will be waiting for us at the party," Sara said to her daughter.

Sara and Evelyn reached the party and as soon as Blake spotted his wife and daughter, he walked towards them.

Blake put his arm around Sara's waist and kissed her cheek,"Baby you look gorgeous as ever."

"Hmm... you too don't look bad yourself," Sara replied.

"Not bad? That's all? I know you can do better than that," Blake raised his brow.

Sara pretended to think for a moment and replied, "Handsome , charismatic and dashing."

Blake's eyes darkened and he was about to kiss her when someone pulled his coat. He looked down to see his daughter pouting as her parents were so involved with each other that they had completely ignored her.

Sara chuckled and said, "Your daughter is feeling left out." Blake immediately picked Evelyn in his arms and ruffled her hair.

"Dad, you messed up my hair ," Evelyn complained.

"Let me fix it, " Sara combed Evelyn's hair with her fingers.

"This is my new dress, dad do I look pretty?" Evelyn asked.

"You look beautiful princess, is it the Elsa dress?" Blake asked.

"Dad, you remembered?" a big smile formed on Evelyn's face.

"Of course, how can I forget when you kept on talking about it for the last week," Blake grinned.

Evelyn went to play with other children while Blake and Sara met all their business associates. The cake cutting ceremony was over and there were few games for the children. Evelyn got second place in musical chair and won a stuffed toy.

Her mother never let her eat more than one bowl of ice cream per day, but today during the birthday party, everyone was busy, so she took three bowls of ice cream and went to the backyard.

She finished off two and was about to eat the third one when she saw her father standing in front of her.

"Dad, please don't say anything to mom," Evelyn pleaded with her puppy dog eyes.

Sara made everyone follow a strict diet at home. Since it was winter season Evelyn cannot eat cold food since she might fall ill.

Blake couldn't bear to say no when he saw his daughter's pleading face

"Only for today will I let you eat 3 bowls, but remember if you get sick you will be taking those bitter medicines, " Blake warned her.

Evelyn's eyes widened remembering the taste of the medicine.

"Dad, I will only have two more spoonfuls then you can eat the rest," Evelyn fed the remainder of her ice cream to her father.

Blake carried Evelyn inside after she had fallen asleep in his arms.

"You both had ice-cream without me?" Sara whined. Blake laughed and answered, "Let her go this time, today is a special occasion."

"You are too soft towards Evelyn," Sara had seen her daughter sneaking into the garden.

So she sent Blake to bring her back, but instead of stopping Evelyn from doing mischievous things, he joined her.

"What do you want me to do? You both bring me to my knees," Blake never scolded orlet alone raise his voice at his daughter.

He did not mind his daughter being stubborn and playful. As long as she does not cross a certain line he was fine with Evelyn doing whatever her heart wished. He always played the good cop while Sara was the bad cop.

He felt very proud when other people told him his daughter resembled him a lot. He and Sara were there to check on Evelyn so that she would not go down the wrong path.

After reaching their house Blake planted a kiss on Evelyn's forehead and passed her to one of the maids to tuck her in bed.

Blake was lying on the bed, and gazing at Sara while she was doing her skincare routine .

"Baby how much longer will this take?" Blake grunted.

"Five more minutes, " Sara had added a little lit heavier make-up today and it was taking more time to remove it.

After few minutes Sara climbed on the bed and rested her head on Blake's shoulder. He started to rub her back, "We don't spend too much time together these days."

"Whose fault is it? You work on weekends," Sara complained.

"I accept, it's my mistake. When I started the Z project it was supposed to end in one year, but because of the natural calamities in that region it kept getting extended, "Blake explained.

"How about next month? We can go on a romantic trip, just you and me, " Blake suggested.

"Fine, I will ask my PA to clear my schedule and we can leave Evelyn at my parents'," Sara replied.

"Nina was telling me she wanted to see Evelyn. We can leave her at Nina's place," Blake stated. Sara nodded and silently opened his shirt's button and ran her hands on his chest.

"When do you have the time to work out? You have such defined abs," Sara said with lust in her eyes.

"I fear you might lose interest in me, so I work out thrice a week despite my hectic schedule," Blake stated.

"Why will I lose interest in you? Did you notice that a few women were watching you today like a hawk and looking at me with hostility as if being with you all the time did not give them a chance to talk with you?" Sara knew her husband was still popular among the ladies even after they got married. Luckily Blake did not even spare anyone a single glance.

"Baby,you were attracting a lot of unwanted attention more than I was.That's the reason I could not let you out of my sight," Blake took one of her breasts in his hand and squeezed it firmly.

"You have become sexier after pregnancy," Blake murmured.Sara was very thin when she was a model because of dieting. But after she gave birth to their baby she had put on weight and her breasts and hips were fuller, making her hotter than ever.

"Blake… I cannot wait any longer," Sara moaned.

"I know baby….," Blake quickly removed their clothes and tossed them on the floor.
