Tempting the Billionaire and His Heir

CHAPTER 157

Three years had passed since Alexa had last seen Nolan. She had only caught glimpses of him on TV a few times since then. In the meantime, she had been busy raising her son, who bore a striking resemblance to Nolan.

As Alexa kissed her son goodbye and turned to Jade, she couldn’t help but feel grateful for her help. Jade had moved in with her to help pay the rent, and they had been taking turns caring for their children while working. Jade was currently calming down her daughter, who was having a tantrum.

“Thank you so much for helping me, Jade,” Alexa said with a smile. “I don’t know how I would have managed without you.”

Jade laughed and replied, “Don’t be silly, Lex. We’re like family now. I love your son like my own, and I don’t mind helping you out at all.”

Alexa felt a sense of relief wash over her as she hugged Jade. It was comforting to know that she had someone she could rely on. As Jade pulled her aside, she whispered to her, “You need to tell your son the truth about his father soon, Lex. He’s been asking me who his dad is.”NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Alexa felt a knot form in her stomach. She had been dreading this moment. She knew she had to tell her son the truth, but she didn’t know how. She thanked Jade for letting her know and said goodbye to her and the kids.

As Alexa left, she got into her old pick-up truck and drove to the public school where she worked. She placed her ID on herself and walked inside, greeted by many elementary school children calling out, “Ms. Lexie!” She smiled and waved, feeling a sense of pride in her work.

Walking into the teacher’s lounge, she was greeted by her colleagues, who said good morning and asked how she was doing. She waved to Bobby, the school’s security guard, who was standing by the back gate.

Sitting down at her desk, Alexa turned on her computer and began preparing her lesson plans for the day. As she worked, she listened to a playlist of songs that Nolan had sung and performed. She couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sadness as she listened to them.

Suddenly, she saw that Nolan had released a new album. Without hesitation, she clicked on the link and listened to the songs. As one of the songs played, Alexa was surprised to hear that it was the song Nolan had written about her.

She sat back in her chair, stunned. The lyrics spoke of their time together, and how much he had loved her. Tears filled her eyes as she listened to the song, remembering the good times they had shared. She couldn’t help but wonder what could have been if things had turned out differently.

As the song ended, Alexa wiped away her tears and took a deep breath. She knew she had to focus on the present and take care of her son. She made a mental note to talk to him about his father when she got home. For now, she had a class to teach and children to inspire.

As she stood up from her desk, she couldn’t help but feel grateful for the life she had built for herself and her child.
