River’s POV
5 Years Later
“Mommy, mommy are you up, “Nathan yelled, stomping to my room as I peeled my eyes open slowly to
see him climbing on my bed,“Come on mommy I want to go to Jacobs.“He yelled, jumping on my bed
until I grabbed him and began to tickle him in his abdominal area as he giggled uncontrollably. Its
where he was most ticklish and I loved to mess with him.
“Mama stop.“He said, as his ocean blue eyes glistened with laughter.
He reminded me so much of his father it scared me.
“Alright Nate let James fix you breakfast and I will go change.“I cooed, placing multiple kisses on his
cheek. Two years ago I got promoted to the CEO of ‘Garcia’ clothing line and since then I saved for this
six bedroom flat. One room for each family member plus an extra.
My Mom and Aiden went to New York because Aiden got into an Academy for High School.
Though expensive the Academy ensures the cost of tuition will be around fifteen thousand so he
decided to go because he says he did not want to depend on me for every move and I was saddened
by the fact he thought it was only my money but I was happy for him in the long run.After all, everything
I have been working towards was for him, Nate and Mom.
“Mi Bebe Como estas.My baby how are you.”A voice said from a short distance, and directly from the
accent, I knew it was Mateo.Mateo loved to teach Nate Spanish since we had Italian and Spanish
descent in us.My grandmother was completely Spanish so he knew the language like the back of his
hand.
“Estoy muy bein(I’m very good),” Nate replied, as Mateo grabbed him and smuggled a couple of kisses
because he hated when Mateo kissed him multiple times even though I do it all the time.Why I had no
idea. Maybe he’s like his uncle it takes away his masculinity at four.
After I finished my morning routine, I opened my walk-in closet and began rummaging through finally
decided on a designer, white flower patterned, pink and gray mid-high pencil skirt, a white designer
blouse, nude colored heels and a Dolce nude colored clutch.
I stole one last glance at my reflection than I grabbed my phone, wallet, lip gloss and shoved them in
the bag walking out to the kitchen where Mateo and Nate were sitting at the table eating
“Come on let’s go you guys,” I said, smiling as they all gave me a blank stare.
“Are you not going to eat,” James asked, placing an extra plate on the table.James was like a best
friend to me, he helped me raise Nate, took care of the house and still had time at the end of the day to
hear my never-ending troubles.
“No thank you I will eat at the office.“I smiled warmly as Mateo and Nate gave me a death stare.
“What?“I chuckled glaring there way.
“Cariño (Sweetie) you have to eat it is not healthy most importantly I do not want you to shoo away the
employees.We both know you get quite feisty when you’re hungry.“He murmured chuckling along with
Nate.
“SÌ Mama please eat even if its something small.“He begged, blowing on his hair so it wouldn’t get in
his way.
“Fine I will grab a piece of toast with jam and coffee is that fine, my nosey family.“I finally said caving in
as smirks formed on each of there faces.
I scarfed down the toast, took a few sips of coffee than grabbed my car keys.
“Come on, Jacob is waiting,“I yell for Nate as he jumps off the chair, washes his hands and heads my
way.
" Amor(Love) I will not be here the next two days because our company in New York has to sign a
contract with H&M in Turkey but I will be here for the fashion show I promise.I know you have been
working hard on the final touches judging by your restless nights.“He assures and I smile.I was glad he
trusted me with the company in San Fransisco, it meant a lot.
“Bueno, espero que vuelvas a tiempo.”Well, I hope your back on time” I said, opening the door to the
garage.
“Ah, I see your Spanish is getting stronger.“He enthused, walking to his car as I walked to my Lexus Rx
sport, unlocking the back door for Nate to get in.
“I learn from the best,“I admitted and he smiled as I placed my sunglasses on, starting the car.“Call me
when you get there and say hi to Aiden and mom for me please,” I stuttered, rushing to hug him while
he placed a kiss on my forehead.He then kissed Nate and left.
I watched as his car trailed away from the parking lot and soon enough I got in the car, closed the door,
slowly backing out of the driveway and in less than ten minutes we were at Jacobs.
I pressed the button to close the ignition than helped Nate out of the car.I knocked on the door and
soon enough Violets figure was gazing before me.
“Heyyyyyy girl.“She jumped, giving me a hug and I chuckled slightly behind my hand.After meeting at
Micheals house we bonded at birthing classes and ever since then, we have been inseparable.
“Hello, hon,” I said smiling while mentally rolling my eyes.Her brown straight hair was now a curly mess
wrapped in a bun and she was wearing skin tight grey dress with nude pumps.
“I will be coming back at 2:00 for Jakes party.“I explained, running my hands through my curly blonde
hair, I would have stayed but you know-”
“Don’t stress babe I got Nathan,” She said assuringly while smiling.
“Ok thanks, love.“I beamed hugging Nathan than heading back to my car.Sooner than later I was inside
the company and up the elevator.
“Good Morning Ms.Campbell.“Mia my secretary said as I walked into my office.
“Morning Mia whats the agenda for today.“I sighed, glancing at the stack of papers piled on my desk,
and then sitting down in the chair that was in the center
“You have a meeting with the owner of Righteous Rights at 10:00, some papers to sign and everything
else was moved to tomorrow as instructed am I mistaken.“He reassured, glancing at his Ipad than my
direction.
“Not at all,“I claimed dismissively as he walked out and shortly there was a loud knock on the door.
“Come in,“I exclaimed, narrowing my gaze at the Patterson file on my desk along with a pen in my right
hand.
“Hello there River.“A familiar masculine tone approached as I dropped the pin in shock and my gaze
met his.
