By the ti Alia got ready and ca downstairs to the dining room, a sumptuous breakfast was already served on the dining table just for her.
The tantalizing aroma of waffles, scrambled egg, raisin toast and beacon whiffed through the air, filling Alia's nostrils, and making her stomach growl in excitent
By the side of her captivatingly garnished al was a single freshly cut rose flower with a red ribbon tied to the middle of the stalk.
Underneath the rose was a yellow folded note that instantly caught Alia's attention.
"Good morning, ma'am." The butler greeted with a bow.
"Good morning, Augusto." Alia bead in response, peeling her eyes away from the rose flower.
"I trust you rested well." The butler pulled out a chair for her to sit on.
"Yes, I did. Thank you." Alia gracefully, sat down, her eyes darting around in search of Blaze.
"Isn't my husband having breakfast?"
"I think he already ate sothing after cooking, ma'am?" Augusto reported.
"He prepared this?" Alia's eyes widened at the tasty al before her.
"Yes ma'am."
"Hmm..." Alia's lips curled up in a bewitching smile. "So, where is he now?"
"He is currently with a visitor in his study."
'A visitor?' Alia raised a brow, her mind swirling slightly at the thought of who this visitor could be. But the Butler's next statent put her heart at ease.
"Mr Anderson said that you should please join him in the study when you're done eating."
"Okay. Thanks."
Before Alia started eating, she picked up the rose and inhaled the sweet fragrance, letting the petal caress her cheek softly. Then she read the handwritten note, a warm smile framing her flushed cheeks.
"Good morning, my love. Enjoy your breakfast."
"Hmm..." Alia chuckled. "Let's see how long you'll be able to continue with this." She inhaled the rose fragrance again before diving into her al, finishing everything on the plate like a hungry bear.
After eating, Alia headed for the mansion study, following behind the butler.
When they got to the door, she knocked twice and heard Blaze's deep but sharp voice asking her to co in. She turned the knob and slowly pushed the door open, only to find her husband standing behind his well polished mahogany desk.
Seated opposite him was a mature-looking woman in a dark blue pants and white long sleeve shirt. Her grayish black hair was nicely trimd giving her a young and elegant look. Her smiles were endearing and captivating, instantly capturing Alia's heart.
'Where have I seen this face before?' Alia pondered under her breath as she carefully assessed the woman.
"Good morning, sweetheart." Blaze briskly made his way around the desk to receive Alia while the mature woman rose to her feet.
"Good morning," Alia managed a faint smile as Blaze briefly hugged her before introducing her to the guest in his office.
"Babe, I want you to et Doctor Venessa Igar, a renowned and well-experienced..."
"Gynaecologist." Alia completed her husband's statent, cupping her lips, taking him by surprise.
"You know her?" Blaze asked, masking the excitent in his eyes.
"Yes."
"You do look familiar." Dr Vanessa interjected. "But please, forgive I have a very poor mory."
"I'm Fiona's daughter. Fiona Wales Shawls." Alia said excitedly approaching the doctor, tears of joy welling up in the corner of her eyes.
"Little Alia!" Dr Vanessa's eyes widened, her jaws dropping.
"Yes...yes. Although, I'm not little anymore."
