Billionaire’s Ex-Wife & His Hidden Babies - Chapter 16: Chapter 16

Third Person’s POV
“Then, I’m pretty sure that that kid was your friend’s son. In fact, he and his Aunt had told me clearly that ‘Brandon Haysbert’ was the name of that kid’s father.”, The shop owner responded. Bruce’s mind is still trying to process everything. He didn’t want to jump like a monkey out of happiness until and unless he confirmed this news on his own. “In other situations, I wouldn’t have been sharing any details of my customer, but knowing that your friend is dying and he should get a chance to meet his Ex-wife and his hidden babies.”, he added, looking for something around him. He even started looking for it in the dustbin.
“Do you know anything, Sir? Like their address or phone number?” Bruce asked hopefully. Well, this help from the shop owner was unexpected.
“Yes! That kid had purchased a giant panda for his brother and asked to deliver it to their apartment. That’s why I’m looking for that paper where that lady had shared the address and her number.”, he replied. “Yes! Here, it is!!”, Saying this, he picked up the paper that he had thrown in the dustbin, thinking it was of no use to him now.
Bruce looked at the tiny piece of paper, which had been torn into two pieces. He joined the both and read the address and phone number written on the paper.
“Are you sure that this was the one?”, He asked to reconfirm.
“Pretty sure!! It’s not that someone buys some giant toys on a daily basis and asks it to deliver at their place.”, The shop owner said with a smile.
“Thank you so much, Sir. You have no idea how much your help meant to us.”, Bruce said. “I want to buy each and every toy in your shop.”, he added out of happiness.
“What?”, The shop owner looked at him in shock. “No! No! You don’t have to thank me for buying all my toys.”, he politely denied. “These toys are just the source of happiness to kids, and I guess I just gave one of the best reasons to that kid and his brother to smile by clearing the path because both of them can meet their father.”
“Still, sir, you did a great help, and I have no idea how to repay for the details which you have shared with me.”
“Trust me, and I didn’t do anything. It’s all God’s wish. I’m just a mere pawn in this game which is made by him, and who knows, this was my role in this game. Because you see, we meet everyone in this world for a reason. Maybe I met that kid for this reason.”, The shop owner again denied Bruce’s offer.
“Thank you.”, Bruce thanked before asking the driver to take him to the place which was written on the paper. They had booked a local car with a driver so that they didn’t have to waste their time in cabs and unknown streets of the Manaus.
After half an hour, he was finally standing in front of the apartment, which was written on paper. Keeping that paper inside, he rang the bell.
He checked the time and realized it was around twelve in the afternoon!! So, there could be a chance that Diana wouldn’t be here in the apartment because of her work.
After waiting for a while, Vígi opened the door and saw an unknown person standing on the other side of the door.
“Yes?”, She asked, raising her brow.
Bruce looked at that unfamiliar face and assumed her to be the caretaker of the kids or their Aunt. Well, he wasn’t sure yet, so he asked, “Does Diana Chambers stay here?”
Vígi narrowed her eyes and looked at him, eyeing him suspiciously because she doubted that Diana had invited anyone at home when she was in the office. And even if she would have, then the person should have been confident about her place. On the top, something was off about his scent, she couldn’t name that, and her wolf was asking her not to let him in.
“No!”, Saying this, she slammed the door in Bruce’s face.
“Why did you lie, Aunt?”
Shit!!
‘The apartment is so small that even though I knew Judy was coming out after hearing the doorbell. I couldn’t finish the conversation before his arrival.’, She mentally thought.
Vígi turned around and saw Judy holding a football in his hand. “Diana Chambers, our mom, stay here.”, he said.
“Really?” Bruce asked, opening the door which he had stopped at the last moment from getting close with his legs. Because of Judy’s sudden appearance, Vígi didn’t check whether the door was actually locked or not. Meanwhile, Bruce heard the conversation between him and Vígi. “Your mom will be so proud of you after knowing that you speak the truth.”, he said, looking at the miniature of his friend in his son.
Hearing this, Judy’s face lit up before speaking. “Thank you, Uncle …”
“Bruce.”
“Thank you, Uncle Bruce.”, he said and dropped the football before introducing himself, “I’m Judy, younger prince of mom,” he added, walking toward him to shake hand.
‘He is miniature of Brandon, but his behavior is like Diana.’, He thought.
He was so engrossed in his thought that he didn’t see the other hand coming.
“How many times I have to tell you that don’t be so friendly with strangers.”, A carbon copy of Judy said, pulling Judy away from Bruce.
“But, Marcus….”
“Even Aunt Vígi doesn’t know him. So, he is a complete stranger to us.”, Marcus explained to his over-friendly brother before narrowing his eyes and looking at Bruce suspiciously.
“Damn! You’re just like Brandon.”, Bruce said with a smile. Years back, Brandon always used to scold Diana for trusting everyone she met, and now, one of his sons was scolding the other because of the same reason.
