"I'm hungry." Amari poked me on my leg and looked at me with pouting lips. "Hungry." She looked so much like her mother when she needed something.

I lifted her up and kissed her nose. "What do you want, Princess?"


"Cake." She said happily. There's no doubt that she got her cake obsession from Ximena.

"What kind of cake? Red velvet, chocolate, vanilla?" I asked as I showed her all the types of cakes on the desert table.

"All!" Amari looked at me and smiled. "I want all!"


I chuckled softly. "You can't have it all, princess." I poked her stomach. "Otherwise you will get a stomach ache."

She pouted. "Dad, I want all!" She wiggled and pointed at the floor. "Down." I put her down and before I could stop her she ran towards the desert table. I was about to ran after her when my dad called me.


"Flynn! Emergency family meeting!" he called out as he disappeared in the dressing room. I called my guard to watch over Amari as I followed my dad to the dressing room.

Jill, Ximena, my mom, and Ellie were sitting on the sofa. They were all firing tons of questions at Jill.

"Where were you?"

"Why didn't you tell us about Amari?"

Jill was very uncomfortable and I could just sense it. I cleared my throat and they all stopped talking. "It's better if I can talk to Jill first."

My dad nodded. "He's right. I just want to say---" Dad paused and gave Jill a small smile, "I'm happy you're back and blessed us with a granddaughter. We're very grateful."

Jill smiled back at him. "I'm happy to be back and that Amari can finally meet all of you." She looked around and panic was written all over her face.

"What is it?" I asked worried.

"Where's Amari?"

"Oh." I said. "She's outside with the guard. Don't worry."

Jill calmed down. "Oh thank god. At this age she likes to explore, so she always need someone by her side to keep an eye on her."

"You know, Jill." Ximena said, smiling. "Before the wedding I told Flynn to get you back. I didn't know he would literally do it!"

"That was just pure coincidence, Ximmy." I chuckled. "It was just pure coincidence I met her at the bakery shop."

Rodrigo shook his head and wiggled his eyebrows. "Nah. More like faith. You two are meant for each other."

I glared at Rodrigo and Jill coughed dramatically.

"I---uhm will go to see what Amari is doing." Jill stood up and walked to the door, but it swung open making Jill take a few steps back.

My guard was standing at the door half his face covered in cake. "What the hell is going on?" I asked my eyebrows scrunched up in confusion.

"Your daughter threw cake at me because I tried to get her off the table." he answered and pointed at the desert table. "She couldn't reach the cake, so she climbed on a chair to get to it."

Oh god! Not even fifteen minutes has passed by and this happens.

"I told you to watch over her!" I said through gritted teeth as I walked out of the room followed by Jill and my guard.

"I did!" He said. "When I tried to get her off the table she threw the cake at me! It was not my fault!"

I facepalmed myself when I saw Amari. Jill let out a loud gasp and her eyes widened.

In the middle of the desert table sat Amari with Vanilla frosting on her face and chocolate cake in her hand, grinning at us.

"Mommy, Dad, Cake! She squealed and stuffed her face with a big piece of chocolate cake, looking all cute and adorable at the same time.

How am I supposed to be mad at her?

Jill Malik P.O.V

Oh god, seeing Amari on the dessert table was too much. She was covered in chocolate and vanilla cake.

"Mommy! Cake!" She squealed happily. Flynn took her from the dessert table and she smeared the frosting all over his face. Oh my goodness!

"What happened...Oh my god!" Ximena stood behind me, shocked.

"I'm so sorry Ximmy." I apologized. "I'm really sorry for ruining your special day."

"Ruining?!" She said and laughed. "I'm so happy you're finally here. And Amari definitely got her cake obsession from me. If I was her, I would do the same honestly." Ximena chuckled as she said that.

"Is there a bathroom here?" I asked as I took Amari from Flynn. Rodrigo nodded. "Yes, there's one in the back. Flynn will you show where. He needs to take a bath too, his whole face is covered in frosting."

Flynn grunted and grabbed a tissue to wipe it off. "Follow me."

I followed him and gave Amari a bath. Then I ask Flynn to bring clothes for her. I dressed her up and then we went back to the wedding reception.

Many of McCallister and Vasilios family were here.

"Bloody hell, you have child? You never told me about your wife, Mr. Vasilios." A british guy, with a very colorful outfit said in a thick british accent. He was handsome. Not as handsome as Flynn, but on a scale of one to ten he would be a nine and a half.

"I'm not his wife." I said to him.

"She's my girlfriend." Flynn said and put his arm on my shoulders. "She was...oversea."

My eyes widened. Girlfriend. He really is out of his mind.

"Ahh, that explains." The british guy said. He then looked at me and smiled. "I'm sorry, I'm Harvey Martin. I'm your boyfriend's business partner. Pleasure to meet you Miss---,"

"Malik. Jill Malik. The pleasure is all mine Mr. Martin." I said smiling at him. Flynn's grip on my shoulder became tighter. I'm not even his and he acts all possessive.

"You look stunning and so does your daughter." He looked at Amari. "I should say, she looks a lot like Flynn. How sad that you carried her nine months and she comes out looking like her dad." He laughed out loud.

"She doesn't mind Harvey. She loves me a lot, right pudding?"

Pudding. He called me pudding. It brings back memories, I try to forget.

I smiled tightly at him. "Yes, I do. Now, if you will excuse me Harvey. I'll get some food for my daughter."

I took Amari from Flynn and walked to the buffet. I was not really hungry, but I just wanted to escape the awkward conversation with Harvey.

And then I don't understand why Flynn pretended that we were dating. Why did he do that? He could have just told Harvey something, but not that. I'm pretty sure I'll see Harvey more often, because he is the business partner of Flynn.
