Chapter 7

"Mom, why are we hiding? I still want to go swimming," Yael said.

"Son, I'm sorry." That was all Freya could reply to Yael because she did not want to lie anymore.

When Freya saw that Jacob had left, they came out of their hiding place. She was holding Yael's hand. Her shoulders slumped when Yael suddenly gave up on asking questions.

"Yael," said Freya.

"Are you hiding something from me, mommy? Lately, I have noticed that you always seem anxious. Are you hiding something? Do you have a huge debt like the ones I saw on TV?" Yael asked with a frown.

Freya was about to speak when suddenly, someone spoke behind her.

"Is he your child?" asked the man.

Freya turned and put her arms around Yael. "Yes. And you are?" she replied.

The man's eyes sparkled and he smiled mischievously. "Have we met before?" he said.

Freya frowned. 'Why am I talking to someone I don't even know?' she thought. She shook her head and then turned away from the man. She quickly went down to the pool with Yael.

"Mommy, you haven't answered my questions before," said Yael as he swam away from his mother.

Freya swam towards Yael. She swam carefully because she didn't know how to swim. Fortunately, they are in the lower part of the pool. She held his cheeks and kissed his forehead.

"I'm really sorry, son. Mommy can't say it right now. I hope you understand mommy." Freya pouted and then frowned. She knew her son couldn't stand her when she was sad. "Don't be angry with mommy, please," she added.

Yael crossed his hands across his chest. Later, he couldn't stop himself from hugging his mother. "I'm sorry mommy. I'm just really wondering about your actions lately. When I get a job mommy, I will help you pay off all your outstanding loan balances,” he said.

Freya couldn't stop smiling at what she heard from her son. How could a seven-year-old child think like that? He should be focusing on playing games and studying at school.

"We are here to enjoy, Yael. The drama is over, okay? Come on, let's swim over there!" said Freya.

Ivana walked briskly towards her boyfriend.

"Jackson! I thought we were going to the casino? Why are we here at the pool? I would have worn a bikini if ​​I knew we were going here," Ivana complained.

"Sorry babe. I saw someone earlier. I thought I knew him, but I didn't," said Jackson.

"Why are you smiling like a devil again? Are you planning something bad again?" Ivana asked with a frown.

"Nothing. I'm just imagining how my brother Jacob will react when he sees us together tomorrow," Jackson lied. The truth is, he had a strong hunch that the boy he saw earlier was Jacob's son. He can't be wrong. He looked exactly like his stepbrother when he was young!

"Jackson! Jackson!" Ivana called out in annoyance. She looked at who Jackson was looking at. Her nose twitched when she saw Freya. She didn't notice the boy with Freya because Yael was submerged in the pool water.

"Damn!" Jackson screamed when Ivana slapped him. "Why did you slap me?"

"I've been calling you for several times already and you've been ignoring me. Are you attracted to that girl?" Ivana pointed at Freya.

"N-no! No, I’m not!" Jackson answered quickly.

"Eh, why are you looking at her over and over again? I didn't trash Jacob just so you could treat me like this, Jackson. Do better! If you're going to replace me, make sure you will choose someone who is prettier, sexier, richer and better in bed than me! Look at that woman, she's nothing compared to me!" Ivana exclaimed.

Ivana rolled her eyes. She didn't want others to surpass her at all aspects. Most of all, she didn't want to be robbed. She's marking her properties and no one should dare to touch it.

Jackson pulled Ivana's waist closer to him. He stared at her lips while his other hand caressed her cheek.

"I will look at other women but that's it. They won’t be able to taste me because my body was made just for you. They won't experience how a Jackson Gray can love because my heart only screams your name." He took one of Ivana's hands and placed it on his chest where his heart was.

Gradually, Ivana's smile appeared on her face. Jackson knew her weakness. His words were more than an assurance to her.

Ivana knew Jackson's mouth was really flowery but she also knew that was where she first fell for.

"Want me to kiss you?" Ivana teased.

Jackson nodded and soon he felt Ivana's lips on his.

"Let's go?" Ivana asked.

"Mommy Freya!" shouted Yael.

Jackson turned to where the boy was. Yael is drowning. He also saw how Freya swam to where her son was. ‘Something was wrong,' he thought.

"Jackson, I said let's go," Ivana repeated.

Jackson kissed her on her cheeks.

"I'll just save the kid," he said.

Ivana would have objected but when she saw that the child was really drowning, she let her boyfriend go.

Jackson quickly took off his long sleeves and recklessly jumped into the pool. Based on his observation, Freya doesn't know how to swim very well and he was not mistaken in his suspicions. This time Freya is also drowning.

"Shit!" Jackson said while doing freestyle swimming.

Jackson managed to save Yael. He quickly performed chest compressions on the child.

"Wake up kid! I also need to save your mom! No one will help her except me!" Jackson said.

Yael quickly opened his eyes when he heard that. He also spit out the water which he swallowed from the pool.

"Save my mom, please," Yael pleaded.

Jackson immediately returned to the pool to rescue Freya. He needs to gain the boy's trust so he needs to impress him.

~~

"Kuya Jacob!" shouted Diana. She had to stop him from going back to the swimming pool area. She immediately knew what was happening there because of his bodyguard.

Jacob turned to Diana. He frowned. He was about to turn around to go to the pool when Diana suddenly screamed again.

"Kuya, your laptop is missing. I just went into your room and I couldn’t find it! Aren't you going to use it in your presentation to Mr. Clinton tomorrow?" Diana lied.

"Shit!" said Jacob before running towards where the elevator was. He couldn’t afford to lost his laptop.
