The Cold Wife
Chapter 75

"Honey, where's Arez?" Alex asked when he couldn't find their eldest son. Sweet who has been playing with Alexa was shocked. He approached Alex who was still standing in the doorway.

Mala also approached her father. "So he was there" pointed Mala towards the bed. But the place is empty.

Alex clucked in annoyance, he was very worried about his son. He also began to surround the room, as did Sweet and Mala. They sometimes call out the name Arez.

What if someone kidnaps my son? Alex's mind is dead-end.

Sweet approached Arel and Alexa who looked confused.

"Kids, wait here huh? Don't go anywhere." Sweet asked his two children to sit on the bed. Then they nodded in response.

"You look for him down below" Alex orders Mala. The woman obeyed the father's orders and hurried away.

Sweet stopped his steps right in front of the elevator door. "Mas, what is this? Why is there an elevator here?" Ask Sweet who just realized it. Alex, who heard this, approached his wife.

"It's an elevator to the basement, there's no way our son's gonna be there." Obviously Alex.

"Ck, you don't know, Mom. Your child is brave enough" Sweet said, pressing the red button. He was sure his son was there.

"Bring the kids," Sweet orders Alex. When the elevator doors opened, Sweet walked in without waiting for her husband. Right now he is really worried.

Alex flanked the twins and held them together. Lau took them to the basement.

The loss of Arez managed to make a furore throughout the house. At Mala's behest, all the servants went in search of their little Master's whereabouts.

Sweet stepped out of the elevator with a certain step. A small hallway connected to a room. Sweet is no stranger to the place, because he used to go there. Yeah, that place is the painting studio where Alex pours his thoughts.

Sweet's footsteps were restrained, when he saw his son was busy with painting tools. Even the tiny hand was already filled with various colors of paint and was unaware of its existence. Sweet breathe a sigh of relief. And had no intention of disturbing his son.

Alex, who had just appeared, restrained his steps, following his wife's gaze. His worried feeling disappeared already, and changed with a wide smile.

"Don't bother him" whispered Sweet as Alex aligned herself with him. A smile rose on the man's lips. Though he looked worried, now his face was emitting a happy feeling.

Not understanding the words of his parents, Arel and Alexa did not speak at all. And just watch the brother who is still cool doodling the canvas.

"We'd better let him in here, this place is safe for him." Said Alex who was answered nodding by Sweet. They left the place with a feeling of relief.

"Stop your search, my son is in a safe place." Alex's actions when he saw the servants were busy ransacking the entire house.

Hearing his master's orders, they bowed slightly to pay their respects. Then take a walk from there.

"Dad, where's Arez? Mala called the police." Mala approached Alex and Sweet.

"He's in the basement" Sweet replied. Mala was seen sighing in relief.

"Alright, I'll call the police immediately to stop searching." Mala said she was leaving.

"Where's your mother? I haven't seen her since." Ask Alex who managed to hold Mala's footsteps. The woman also turned around.

"Em. It looks like Mama is dating. It's been almost a month that she's been acquainted with a rich widower." Answer Mala accordingly.

Alex who heard that raised his eyebrows next to his.

"Who is that? Is that guy really serious about your mom?"

"Yes, I've been looking into it for a long time. He was a good man, his first wife died while giving birth to their first son. I think that man really loves Mama. I hope it's like that." Mala smiled wryly.

"Thank God your mother found her love, what about you?"

"Dad, you know I still love my late husband. I'm not ready to open my heart yet."

Alex let out a long sigh upon hearing Mala's reply. He could not force the boy to open a new leaf.

"I hope you're always happy, I love you."

"I love you too" Mala replied sincerely.

"Lexa also loves Daddy, Mommy and Sister Mala." Alexa Timpal. Everyone who heard that smiled happily.

"So you don't love Brother huh?" Arel asked staring at Alexa sharply.

"I love you, too, Sister." Alexa replies that everyone laughs.

"Sweet," call someone from the direction of the main door.

Sweet who felt called immediately turned his head. His eyes widened perfectly when he caught someone he missed so much. "Grace?"

Sweet approached the woman with quick steps.

"God, I miss you so much, Sweet." Grace hugged Sweet with a tiny baby in her arms.

"I miss you too, Grace." Reply Sweet.

"Stop that big lady, my daughter's pinned down." Josh's protest was also holding a two-year-old boy.

Grace and Sweet withdraw each. Then Sweet's eyes were fixed on a tiny baby who was still sleeping in his best friend's arms.

"It's so pretty" said Sweet, bringing the puffed-up baby into her cradle.

"Like her Mommy" said Grace so confidently.

"Sir" said Josh to Alex.

"How are you?" Ask Alex for pleasantries. Because he knew very well the man was fine if he could still walk.

"Okay, very good." Josh replied, who then chuckled. Then they joined Sweet and Grace.

"Mommy, she's so beautiful. Can Lexa kiss him? Ask Alexa while mengoel cheeks puffed tiny baby belongs to Grace and Joshua.

"Sure, Honey." Grace rubbed Alexa's hair gently. Without much thought, Alexa immediately kissed the puffed cheek with anxiety.

"Mommy, Arel wants to kiss her too." Arel went up on the sofa. Then kiss the cheeks puffed up to cause a red color. The fat baby was disturbed from his sleep. But it didn't really wake him up.

Everyone who saw Arel's funny behavior laughed cheerfully.

"Where is your other son?" Grace asked looking left and right looking for Arez.

"He was enjoying his own world" Alex replied.

Grace who heard that was confused.

"He inherited his Daddy talent, painting." Add Sweet.

"Geez, that little kid can paint?" Grace asked in disbelief.

"Yes, he's my son. Of course it can do that," Alex replied arrogantly. Sweet looked at Alex as if he didn't like it.

"justified? He is my son and talented like me" Alex said when he noticed his wife's gaze. Sweet rolled his eyes puffed.

"You know Grace? Sometimes I'm just so sick of having you old and so cocky." Sweet told Grace.

"Yes, that's right. I feel the same way." Grace then laughed crisply.

"It looks like we need to get away from them" Alex said waking up from his position.

"Darling, I'm bringing Ansel to you." Joshua gave his son to his mother. Then he rushed to Alex. Grace could only shake her head while looking at the back of her husband who disappeared behind the elevator door.

Arez and Alexa bring Ansel to play. They look happy and continue to play together.

"Grace, are your legs healed?" Sweet asked when she realized she was no longer wearing any tools.

Grace smiled too thinly. "It's thanks to your husband" Grace replied, which left Sweet confused.

"Your husband helped me in the treatment process, I'm so grateful, Sweet. Turns out you got a husband as good as Alex. Although he's a little annoying," explained Grace.

"I don't know that" said Sweet who regretted having missed all the moments.

"It's not just me, you remember Daisy?" Ask Grace.

"Of course, he's a waiter here. Where is he? I haven't even seen him at all."

"Of course she's not here anymore, she's already the wife of a CEO." Grace answered with enthusiasm. There seems to be a lot of change in Grace. In the past, the woman rarely told the story as it is today.

"CEOS?" Sweet asked increasingly curious.

"Yes, CEO of Diamond Hotel. Maxie Clodio Muller."

"Maxie? What do you mean Max?" Sweet asked increasingly curious.

"Yes, one of your husband's confidants besides my husband."

Sweet's mouth opened slightly, not believing what he was hearing.

"You should know, they were betrothed by your husband. Because Daisy treated you well, so your husband gave her a wedding present."

"Ah, it turns out so many stories I've been through, Grace." Sweet complained of resignation.

"Not really, you've heard it from me."

Sweet looked at Grace paused. "It's like I'm looking at the other you, Grace. Since when are you so chatty?"

Grace smiled faintly at the question of her best friend. "Don't know, my husband says I've been talking more since Clara's pregnancy."

"Ck, I don't believe that." Sweet snorted again to look at the tiny baby who was still asleep. Since then they have continued to make noise, but did not affect the baby.

"Sweet, I like you now. You're so pretty with that cloth on your head. It really shows you the real you" Grace said with a sincere smile.

"Hm. My husband said the same thing. Nearly a thousand times he said the same thing. Though it is my duty as a Muslim to close the law, you know that."

"Yes, I know."

"Hey, is he a buffalo?" Tanya Sweet pointed to the tiny baby who was still cool playing in the dreamland.

"Ck, he's like that. Just like her father," Grace replied as she was.

"Oh, Grace, why didn't you bring Daisy here?" Sweet's question looked at Grace after goal.

"Ck, I forgot to tell you. Daisy just gave birth to her second child two days ago." Answer Grace.

"That means I have to go there." Sweet said as he pinched Clara's little nose. The little baby woke up and cried. Sweet and Grace also laughed at the behavior of the fat baby.
