Becoming Secret Nanny for Possessive CEO-Chapter 76: Awkward Situation on Weekend

Cliff didn’t want to remain silent after hearing this good news from his ex-fiancée. In fact, they were now engaged again. Therefore, before he regretted it all later, he wanted to share this good news with his mother. Luckily, his mother’s schedule wasn’t too busy today, so he could discuss the engagement news more freely. He was a little doubtful that his mother would approve of their relationship, as his last failed relationship was with Arabella five years ago.

"Mom, I want to tell you some good news."

Diana greeted her son’s arrival with a beaming smile. "What’s up, Cliff? Did you win over the investors?"

"It’s not about work. It’s about my love life." Cliff lowered his head for a moment. "Mom, Edith and I are getting married."

Diana had actually suspected that luck would favor her biological son after seeing all the photos her assistant had provided. However, she continued to feign ignorance to avoid arousing his suspicions. Her eyes widened and her mouth dropped open.

"Really? This time Edith is serious about marrying you?"

"Of course. Edith feels guilty because for five years, she’s been insensitive to me. Even though I’ve helped her so much."

"I’m still having a hard time believing all this. Your wedding was called off. Now you’re back together."

Cliff held his mother’s right hand with a happy look. "Mom, you don’t have to worry anymore. This time, I won’t let Callum take Edith away from me."

"But you have to promise me something too, Cliff. You won’t make another mistake. You won’t embarrass our family again!"

"Don’t worry. I won’t act rashly again. Besides, isn’t Arabella engaged to Callum?"

"Yes, you’re right. Everything will definitely go smoothly now." Diana snapped her fingers for a moment. "That’s right! So that everyone doesn’t remember the dark past, how about we just have an engagement party?"

"Mom, when do you want me to have the engagement party? I have to prepare everything with Edith."

"Maybe you could have an engagement party in two weeks. Is that too soon?"

"No. I think the sooner the better before Edith changes her mind again."

"Good. Anyway, you have to think of a way to stop her from running away from you again."

Several days have passed, and Edith still refuses to communicate with Callum except regarding the children. Sometimes, Edith asks Callum for help looking after Eliana, or vice versa. Callum also asks for help with work. Therefore, Edith cannot block Callum’s contact because their relationship is still bound by a contract.

Even though Callum had been contacting her frequently to try and persuade her again, Edith remained unconcerned, prioritizing the smooth running of her mission. Furthermore, Cliff had already informed her that their engagement party was in two weeks. Edith hadn’t told Callum this yet, as she didn’t want him to be shocked by the bad news. She hadn’t wanted to go this far. Would she still be trapped in her own mission?

Edith decided to spend the holiday with her daughter for the first time since her fight with Callum. As usual, she didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone and wanted to stay indoors all day.

ding...dong...

Hearing the doorbell ring, Edith opened the door to her home to welcome an unexpected visitor on her holiday. She hadn’t expected Callum to visit her with Erdin on a holiday, even though it wasn’t her job as a nanny on holidays.

"Callum, what are you doing?"

Callum smiled mischievously as he held up a paper bag. "Of course, because Erdin misses you so much. He needs you to give him some guidance on his drawing homework."

Her eyes narrowed as she stared at her ex-lover’s mischievous expression. "It wasn’t because you wanted to visit me on a whim, was it?"

"Why would I mess around? Besides, according to the contract, you’re also responsible for babysitting my son at all times."

Edith was forced to let her two precious guests into her home before anyone could witness them. Edith also couldn’t bear to see her son, who continued to display a gloomy expression, having rarely played lately.

Of course, Edith maintained her professional demeanor as a nanny. She provided guidance on the drawings Erdin had painstakingly created. In fact, she was also peeking at Callum’s plans during his visit to the apartment. Callum’s constant staring made her feel even more awkward.

"Callum, can you stop looking at me?"

"Edith, who said I wanted to see you? I was just looking at the curtains, which are starting to get dirty."

"I’ll change the curtains later."

"I’ll replace it." Callum quickly got up from the sofa. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"No need, Callum! I can change myself!"

"But, changing curtains is a man’s job."

Finally, Edith pressed her lips together tightly and sighed. "Okay, I won’t stop you. But don’t make me look like a bad person by taking the initiative to do something so serious in someone else’s house."

"Even though your house is my house too."

A few minutes passed, and Callum finished changing the curtains and returned to the sofa next to his ex-girlfriend. Now he was thinking about how he could stay here longer throughout the day. He had planned this with his son to make it seem natural.

"Since I’ve finished giving you advices, how about you guys go home?"

Erdin immediately pouted. "Mom, I haven’t even finished drawing yet. Why did you chase me and Dad away?"

Callum laughed casually as he looked at his ex-girlfriend. "It seems like your mom is really nervous because she hasn’t played with you in a while."

ding...dong...

Hearing the doorbell ring, Edith immediately ran to the main door and greeted another unexpected visitor. This time, it was Cliff, leaving her jaw dropping.

"Cliff, what are you doing here?"

"Why are you asking me? I actually wanted to discuss the engagement with you."

Edith is increasingly panicked that Cliff has come to her now to discuss this important matter. So, what will happen to Callum and Erdin, who are also visiting her?
