When Alexander returned home, he learned from the housekeeper that Nicholas had not eaten yet. He went into his room and saw him sitting on the bed with a scowl on his face.
"What is it? Why are you sitting here alone?" Alexander walked over and sat down next to him.
Nicholas pouted and turned aside, crossing his arms across his chest. He refused to say anything.
"Champ. Look at me." Alexander reached out to hold his arm.
Nicholas pushed his hand away. "I am upset. I want Mommy. Bring her home."
"Mommy must be busy at work. She will be back soon." Alexander tried to pacify him.
He had gone to her boutique to pick her up before returning home and learned that she had left early with Declan. He had called her and found her phone switched off. It made him realize that Declan had not allowed her to come back here.
"She is not coming back. She is not calling me either. Her phone is off." Nicholas sulked even more.
