The Billionaire's Kept Woman-Chapter 243 - Protective Mother

Karmina doesn't feel complete if she doesn't cook for her kids even twice a day. She gently pushed herself up and kissed her sleeping husband's lips.

"Where are you going, love?" Henry asked. "It's six in the morning."

"Darling, I have to cook something for our kids." She smiled and kissed his lips. "My love, I am used to cooking for them. Let me prepare something for their breakfast."

"Alright, I'll help you out. Give me a sec."

Karmina nodded. She went to the bathroom to start her day and then went downstairs to the kitchen. She prepared the ingredients that are needed to prepare for her children's breakfast. She smiled while humming the new song that her daughter composed.

"Our kids are doing well," Henry said as he approached her, reached the apron, and hugged her from behind. "Good morning, my love."

"Good morning, hubby." She turned her head and he kissed her lips. "Alright, help me with chopping these."

"Sure thing."

The couple cooked a few lunch boxes for their children and then, Henry drove his car out from the two story-house that they are living in. They deliver it first to Alessandro's office. He didn't come out of the car as Karmina went there alone. Then, shortly, Karmina came back with a big smile.

"Did he already eat his breakfast?" Henry asked.

"He hasn't, that's why he's happy," Karmina said. Henry knew that making their children happy makes her happy. So, he drove to the Golden Age. He used the VIP area as it was guarded by the EPUA Security. They let her in. Henry will use another way and he exits the parking lot.

In the guest area, the receptionist was a male, one of the security guards of Keira and he saluted her.

"Good morning," She greeted and then one of them opened the door for her. Inside, Keira was discussing something with Johanna. They stopped and looked up at her.

"Breakfast is here." She said happily.

"Thank god, mom! I missed you having back in the mansion." Keira pouted as she stood and hugged her mother.

"I'm so sorry, honeybee." Karmina patted her head and then Connor took the bags from her. "By the way, I am off to shop today. Do you want anything, Jo?"

Johanna shrugged.

"I have lots of clothes back home. I don't think I need one."

"You need a maternity dress, my dear. I will shop for Violet's baby too."

"Hmm," Johanna shrugged at her mother.

"Anyway, I will take care of it." She said and went to the tablet to unpack it. "Call Harvey." She waved at Keira who quickly called Harvey.

Shortly, Harvey and Henry came out of the closet and then, Karmina watched them eat happily. Henry and Karmina stayed on the sofa and hugged each other like it's normal for them.

"I should prepare dinner too?" She asked him.

"Sure," Henry nodded his head. "Keira, darling. You can take care of everything here, right?"

"Sure, daddy. No problem." Keira said while busy eating the delicious foods.

Shortly, Karmina went out shopping while Henry was following her or more like stalking her. Leon came up shortly to follow her around just in case if there's someone that would murder her. She went to a known shop where she could buy new dresses for Johanna. She smiled at the saleslady.

"Is there a maternity dress here?" She asked.

"Yes, we have that ma'am. It's also a good brand."

She stopped walking when she had an eye to eye with a familiar woman. Wendy Charles. The woman scoffed and raised her brows as she threw the dress to the saleslady.

"Why in the world?" Wendy scoffed.

Karmina only walked confidently and smiled at the saleslady.

"Get me those maternity dresses, please."

Wendy's face became distorted because of her grimace. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

"Wendy Charles, are you so unlucky to show your face in front of me?" Karmina asked in a very calm yet dangerous way.

Wendy looked away.

"Child, you haven't changed. Have you? Did your grandfather let you out of that mental facility?" Karmina looked down at her. "I still haven't forgotten that you nearly murdered my dear daughter."

Wendy gritted her teeth. The sales lady was surprised but then she brushed off the dress that was covering her body camera.

"I wished that she died," Wendy said, sounding so sick. Karmina's hand landed hard on Wendy's cheek.

"Say that again. Because I won't let you off this time."

"Miss," Her bodyguard came quickly and was about to hit Karmina or push her but then Leon started whistling a familiar song that made the bodyguard stop.

"Hit her!" Wendy shouted at him but the man was busy turning his head around to find that person whistling.

"Hit me?" Karmina chuckled and shook her head. "You are still that twisted sick woman who was eager to take Alessandro from his love. Too bad, you are just another desperate woman. Alessandro will never love you because you are sick in the head." Karmina smirked as Wendy growled in anger and was about to hit Karmina but she had stepped back.

"Go, try to hit me," Karmina smirked. "Even though your grandfather won't even try to hurt me."

Her eyes dilated.

"Yes, that's right." Karmina sneered at her. "I knew your grandfather well. I knew your father well, Wendy. Your grandfather wouldn't be this rich if it wasn't for my grandfather, Wendy. Remember that." Karmina threatened and the sales lady came.

"Madam, here are the maternity dresses." The sales lady said happily. She smiled at the saleslady.

"Thank you, that was quick. My daughter would love these. I want to take each of the designs. Let me also check the quality."

"Yes, madam." The sales lady gestured to the VIP sofa area. "Would you like some coffee?"

"Don't bother, my dear." She smiled at the dresses and then she looked at Wendy who started breaking things. The security already took her out and she threw money as a payment for the damages. She smirked and then covered it with a smile.

"That woman," The saleslady asked. "I have a camera, madam. Is it true?" The other saleslady said.

"Thank you. Can I have a copy of it?" She asked as Henry came up. "She indeed tried to kill my daughter. She caused an accident and hit my daughter with a baseball bat. But since she has an unstable mind, she was sent off to a mental facility. But it seems that with money, they can do everything."

The two looked at each other and the manager came up and apologized to her.

"It's alright,"

"I promised that we will ban her." The manager said again. She smiled and bought a few more that gained her a VIP card.

"I got it," Leon mumbled to Karmina. "What else do you plan, madam?" He asked.

"Don't worry about it. Keep it, sweetheart."

After the press conference and interview, Alicia finally walked back to her apartment in disguise. But then, she saw Leon escorting a lady back to the Golden Age Building and holding paper bags. She noticed that the woman was Keira Del Carlo's mother. She didn't approach them but instead, she followed them. They went to the main reception and Leon bowed at the lady and turned around. He stopped and looked around. Then, he approached her and reached for her hand.

"Leon," She called.

"I'll take you home." He grumbled. He fixed her cap and then took her back to the apartment.

"You were escorting the President's mom?"

"Yes. It's dangerous for her to go around alone."

"I see. So, what's your real job?"

He only smiled at her and didn't answer her question. She didn't ask again and when they reached her apartment he went to check the security system.

"Go to sleep. You have a photoshoot later?" He asked.

"Yeah, beach."

He frowned and turned his head to her.

"Beach?" He asked again.

"Yeah." She nodded her head. "It's a good thing that you didn't leave any hickeys. They are planning for beach swimsuits."

He frowned even more.

"Don't worry," She smiled at him and removed her jacket. "I chose something that isn't that showy."

"Then, maybe I should start marking you." He said and removed his coat.

"No!" She exclaimed at him. "Come on. Maybe after the photoshoot?"

"Who's idea was that?"

"It's for the brand. Okay?" She approached him and scooped his face. "Babe, it won't take long."

Leon closed his eyes and tried to calm himself. He had seen all of her body and it was beautiful and addictive. He won't let anyone see that. He's also sure that her ex was also jerking off while spying on her naked and all.

"Babe, come on." She coaxed him. "We can stay there for a night if you want? I will treat you well."

"Fine." He reached her small waist and caressed it. "What kind of brand was it?"

"It's a sunblock lotion. The known brand. It's good." She caressed his hair. "Do you want me to cook something for you, babe?"

"No. You should rest. I will set up your van. Okay?"

"I already have a service."

"No. I will set up one for you.." He reached her cheeks and kissed her mouth hungrily.
