I’ve never felt this much age before, especially seeing Lana’s hand resting on my son’s hair while he dept in peacefully How des che come in here and touch him when he was completely unaware of it!
Apollo was not someone that liked when others touched him while he was asleep, it was something I’ve know about him since he wit a child. She clearly didn’t know him that well if she felt that this was okay. But even if my son didn’t have an issue with it, she had on right doing that out in the open like
this.
How could she be so thoughtless, knowing that his future wife was staying under the same roof? Did the hip no sanse of repet
into the room and saw that scene? How would my future daughter in law feel witnessing something so inappropriate?
Timmediately tense at that question was trying my hardest to make this marriage happen but Lana was someone that was clearly standing in the way of that. She was becoming a bigger hurdle than I initially thought she was
I couldn’t believe she had the audacity to do this out in the open, assuming everyone else was asleep.
How many times had she pulled this while my son was sleeping? Was this why he had formed such a strong attachment to her?
“Mrs. Reign,” she says as she quickly withdraws her hand and distances herself from m
“I asked what you were doing before, I press her for an ansiver since she wasn’t keen on giving one
Her checks flush as she replies, “Apollo seemed to be having a nightmare when I came in, so I stopped to check on him to make sure he was okay“:
Imarrow my eyes and slowly approach my son, instinctively wanting to shield him from her presence. She had no right to touch him without his consent. He was about to be a married man, and this kind of behavior could cause significant trouble in his relationship.
I wished I could unleash everything I wanted to say to her, but I knew I had to hold back. The last thing I needed was for Apollo to wake up and hear m insulting her again. If that happened, he might very well reconsider the engagement. I knew that he was serious about his threat and didn’t take it lightly
at all.
I couldn’t let that occur. For just a moment, I needed to set aside my pride and my overwhelming urge to protect my son from anyone I viewed as a threat -even if the greatest threat stood right in front of me now.
“I would appreciate it if you kept your hands off my son at all times,” I tell her, trying to keep my tone as calm as possible. “We can both agree that Jada might get the wrong idea if she ever saw what just witnessed,”
Her cheeks flush deeper, “Likel said—”
“I know what you said,” interject, “But I’m just clarifying how things appeared to me. Apollo is asleep, he’s not aware of your actions, and clearly doesn’t
consent to it either,”
She looks flustered by my words. I can’t understand why she’s still in the room. I want her gone so I can tend to my son without her presence looming over us. When Jada told me he had fallen asleep in the family room, I rushed in with pillows and blankets to keep him cory. The last thing expected was to find Lana touching him as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
She was too comfortable around him, and I didn’t like it one bit. I needed to resolve this quickly before it spiraled out of control
“I wasn’t doing anything except
“Are you hard of hearing, Lana?” I ask, cutting her off. “He is my son, and I’d like you to be more mindful of your actions around him from now on. That’s
She looks offended but doesn’t say anything further.

Chapter 84
Good: I didn’t want to engage with her any longer. I’d had enough of this conversation.
“Lana.” Apollo groans in his sleep.
She glances at him in surprise, and I can tell she wants to rush to his side but stops herself in front of me
I grit my teeth in anger. I can’t believe he’s calling out her name even while he’s deeply asleep. Just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse, he’s now dreaming about her.
“Lana.” He murmurs again, and it feels as though he’s reaching out for her.
“He is calling for me, maybe I should‘
I quickly step in front of her, blocking her path. “Please leave us alone now request firmly. ” make sure it’s okay. Besides, if anyone should be looking after my son, it should be Jada. You’re only his step–sister, not even his real sister. You don’t need to overstep your boundaries when there are others here who can care for him properly.”
She looks defeated as she slowly walks out of the room. The moment she leaves, I place a pillow underneath my son’s head and cover him with a blanket
it frustrates me that she lingered for so long even though I was practically showing her out.
“Lana”
I narrow my eyes. He’s still calling her name, again and again.
it still makes absolutely no sense to me. What could my son possibly see in her? There’s truly nothing special about her
I need to have a word with Jada about this. She should never have left Apollo alone in here. It’s her responsibility to look ater him when I’m not around. Instead, she left the door wide open for Lana to come in.
Something like this could not happen again, I would not stand for it
