Chapter 103 Little devils
Twins?

Shock registered on Diego's face; of course, he wasn't expecting it.

"What did they say?" Candy's weak voice brought back his attention. She couldn't hear them earlier due to exhaustion.

"Bring them over," he demanded from the nurses, and the two boys were handed carefully to him. His eyes teared up as he stared at the two blessings.

This was his first time holding children—they were his. Never had he thought a day like this would actually come.

"W...we have twins," his voice trembled with excitement. "And they are both boys," he laughed lightly.

Candy chuckled, her weak hand reaching to touch each of them. They looked a lot like Diego—so beautiful.

Jameson was scrolling through Yazmine and Aiden's wedding pictures. Those two looked so good together.

Aiden had quit being a secret agent for his bride's safety. At the moment, they were on their honeymoon.

Remembering something, he pulled a long face. He hadn't seen her today, even at lunch—just how busy could she be all day?

"Miss Jackie."

Jackie raised her gaze from the system, answering the woman in white and black office attire.

"You're called by Mr. James."

Jackie nodded, dropping whatever she was doing. Today had been a really busy day. A new contract had been given to their team. Through the elevator, she reached his office in no time.

Knocking gently on the door, she heard him approve her entry.

Opening the door, she found Jameson resting his back on the table behind him. His arms were folded, and his face looked displeased.

"You called?" Jackie stated, feeling a bit concerned about his look. Had she made a mistake?

"Why haven't you visited?" he asked, approaching her with slow steps. Jackie blinked several times.

"I... was busy... but we saw each other this morning when you arrived," Jackie stated.

"We only said good morning to each other. I didn't see you during lunch, and you never came to check up on me like you used to. Even when I came, you were in your office throughout... I badly wanted to kiss you in there, but you don't want anyone to know about us yet," Jameson pouted, and Jackie rolled her eyes. This guy.

"This is a workplace... we can't..."

Jameson pulled her close and slammed his lips against hers. He kissed her hard, making sure she was out of breath before releasing her.

"Mind the words you say, sweetie. You're mine everywhere," Jameson whispered and then smiled innocently.

Jackie, all red, got back to her senses.

"Mr. Ja... I mean babe, I'm sorry but..." she corrected, and Jameson smirked. "I have a lot on my table."

"Gosh, those people are stressing you out again," Jameson muttered and went to take his phone. He dialed a number and then instructed, "Jackie will be running an errand for me. Give her work to someone else... Don't bother me and do what I asked."

He dropped the phone, and Jackie's lips parted.

"What did..."

"We are going on a date," he said, holding her hand and dragging her out of the office.

"We can't keep doing this every..." Jackie paused when the man gave her a look. She knew better than to complain. "I mean great, let's go on a date."

Jameson chuckled and held both of her cheeks. She looked so cute in her white and black office attire.

"I just want to make you feel better," he stated, staring at her with affection.

"Hmm... honestly, I needed a break," she said with a beautiful smile.

"Where should we go?" he asked.

"How about a movie?" she squealed. He kissed her lips with a swift move.

"I was thinking the same," Jameson stated, and they both left.

\[GONZALEZ MANSION\]

FOUR YEARS LATER

"Alex?... Andrew?" An old maid worriedly paced around the large hall, her eyes darting around.

"Gosh, where did those two go? I only left them for a minute. Boys, where are you?!" she called out louder.

Just then, she heard the sound of a piano coming from a particular room. It was so pleasant that it drew her attention.

She walked towards where the music was coming from and peeked through the keyhole. She saw one of the boys she was looking for.

Opening the door, the music abruptly stopped.

Diego and his children shifted their gaze to her. The boys looked so much like him—they were like his carbon copies, each sitting on one of Diego's laps.

"I'm sorry to disturb. I was looking for the boys."

"Oh... I—" Diego began to speak, but one of the boys interrupted.

"We wanted to hear Dad play the piano," Andrew said with a cute smile. He was the youngest twin.

"I found his childhood picture. He was with a piano. Sorry if we worried you, Mrs. Katerina," Alex spoke this time. His words often made people wonder if he was really four.

"They are fine with me. I'll bring them downstairs for dinner," Diego stated, and the maid bowed before leaving.

"How do I look?" Old Mavis asked, stepping out before Candy. He was dressed in a nice suit. He was meeting some of his old friends.

"Fantastic, Grandpa!" Candy exclaimed, and he smiled. However, it dropped when she continued, "I'm just a little worried."

"About what, dear... is it my tie?" Old Mavis asked worriedly.

"No... I'm worried those young ladies might steal you away," Candy said, and Old Mavis burst into laughter. Candy joined him.

"Let's go have dinner before you leave, and please do not stay out too long," Candy instructed as she led him downstairs.

"Of course, sweetie. I always listen to you," Old Mavis chuckled.

Diego was already downstairs. When he saw the old man laughing with his wife, he raised a brow.

Seeing this, Old Mavis scoffed. "I'm not stealing your wife. Make that face of yours loose," he said, walking to take his seat.

Diego held his wife's face, caressing her cheek.

"I hope this old man is not stressing you," he said.

A potato hit Diego's back immediately. It was Old Mavis who threw it.

"Punk," Old Mavis cursed. Diego and Candy chuckled.

"Great-grandfather, what's the meaning of punk?" Andrew asked the old man, whose face dropped.

"It's a word you shouldn't say to anyone at your age," Alex answered instead.

"Oh... so when I grow up, I can call you punk?" Andrew asked, and Alex looked at him. He blinked several times before they both giggled. "I was just teasing, great-grandfather... of course, I know the meaning of punk."

"Mother," Alex called, and Candy's attention was drawn to him. "You look so beautiful."

Candy chuckled and felt blessed having these two adorable little ones. "Thanks, sweetie."

"You're sweet too, Mother," Andrew said this time.

"Thanks."

"You're lovely and kind and generous," Alex said again.

This time, Diego stopped eating and looked at the two little devils. He saw the small smirk on their faces as they spared a glance at him.

"When I grow up, I wish to have a wife like you," Andrew said, and Candy laughed lightly.

"Really?"

"Yeah, Mom... you're just the best."

Old Mavis chuckled, knowing what these two were doing. Diego was now facing his little self—not one but two. This was just so cute.
