"Christian? Are you there?"
"Yes, I am."
"I didn't expect him to. I too was shocked but my father doesn't trust anyone, especially regarding the children. I hope you understand that he has nothing against you. He just wants to make sure that you are actually their father and won't leave them. Anyways you are not really his favourite person." She laughs. "I am sorry, I know it isn't funny as I would have been mortified if your parents would've asked for a DNA test. And you really don't need to do it. He will understand that you are in this completely when you don't leave till the end."
"Ana, I am into this. You never have to worry about me leaving."
"I guess I know, but I can't say the same for my father. Though I am telling you again, you don't have to do it, I just wanted to tell you what my father thought about me finally finding you."
"My father also wanted a DNA test." I blurt out without thinking, I want to be truthful with her as she also told me the actual reaction of her father.
"Oh... Well... If everyone wants to have a test then I think we must do it so everyone is satisfied." I can almost hear the tears that are welling up in her eyes, she takes a deep breath to calm herself and speaks. "But I know for sure Christian these are your children."
"I know Ana. I trust you implicitly."
"Well... Your family thinks I am some gold digging whore mining my way into your life by using my children. That is not healthy and they will always resent me and the children, no matter what. I think we must get a test done. Yes, It is for the best." She says with resolve.
"No, Ana. I trust you and my family does not think that it's just my father, he has his lawyer instincts kicking everywhere. My mother and siblings are very excited to meet you all."
"Well, we'd also like to meet them."
"How about you all meet them this saturday at my parents' place?"
"I'd like that, but Christian this saturday my dad is taking the kids out. This is his weekend, I am sorry but we can do it next weekend for sure."
"Even toddlers have a schedule." I chuckle, then a idea comes to my mind. "What are you doing this sunday?"
"Nothing much, most probably some laundry, baking and also start on some new projects I have got."
"How about you come with me to this sunday's brunch?"
"Uhh... What?"
"You come with me to this sunday's brunch my mother holds for our family."
"I don't want to intrude. I mean it is suppossed to be family time."
"That's rubbish. My mother would love having you and Mia is also going to be there, you know her beforehand, she is very excited to go shopping with you."
She giggles, "I know, she is always excited to go shopping."
"So...?"
"Count me in. I'd love to meet your family."
"See you on sunday, Miss Steele."
"Don't you want to see your office designs?"
"They are ready already? I remember you mentioned monday."
"Not all the twenty floors but the top floor is ready, I can mail you the designs, if you want."
"Okay. I'll see them, though I know I am going to love it
"Ah Ah , no cheating Mr.Grey." DAMN. Her calling me Mr.Grey sends sparks to my groin. "You have to treat me like your other staff. If you don't like it then I will remodel it, that's what I am here for."
"Fine." I mutter petulantly.
"Okay, I have to go. Bye."
"Laters, baby." She giggles and the line goes dead.
And now I have a hard on to take care of... again.
After taking care of my very angry member, I come to my desk and find an email from Ana.

Dear Mr.Grey
I have attached a copy of the designs for your floor. Please have a look and pass on your honest opinion.
Anastasia Steele
Designer, Steele Furnishing
Wow. The designs are really good but she has made both the conference halls of the same size that's all I can find in the design which can be changed. Also she has added a kitchenette on my floor which is very thoughtful as I drink a hell lot of amount of coffee to function in my day, and I couldn't care less how Andrea manages to get it made unless it is served to me in time and how I like it but now I guess it will save her a lot of time and effort.

I have to say it was really thoughtful to add a kitchenette as it will most definitely help my assisstant. Just one thing, Can you redesign such that one conference hall is bigger than another?

Dear Mr.Grey
Thank you, you being honest makes my job way far more easier. No need to thank me it is my job to get the bet design for you, it felt odd to not have a kitchennette on the floor as me and the kids literally spend half of our day there.
Yep, I will get to it and get them done by this evening.
You must decide upon the colours of the decor by this weekend so I can give the order for the furniture to be made at the earliest possible as you want to move into the building asap.
Anastasia Steele
Designer, Steele Furnishing
Fuck
I forgot about the colour thing.
God this is so frustating, I want to do my business not choose wallpapers and colours for the office.
But Anastasia told me how it affects the existent and potential dealers.
Can't she just do it on her own, I am sure she will choose what is best.
Or...

But since you are the father of my children, I guess I can make an exception for you, even though your proposal does not sound decent or business-like to me.
P.S.-Are you asking me out on a date ? Because you could have definitely done better than this.

Well, that makes the two of us, maybe we can learn about dating as we go ahead.
How weird it is we have kids and we don't even know about dating. LOL.
And since you are already acquainted with my day routine for Saturday, what is the time that I can pencil you in?

I know it is weird but that's the way we are and I wouldn't change a thing about it.
Or maybe I will, If I could I would spend the last two and a half years with you and the kids but I hope I can compensate in the future.
I was hoping you could find out time for me at 6 and the rest of the evening, I would like to makeup for my less than appropriate proposal for the date.

You surely know how to make a girl swoon. Don't worry there will be plenty of time to make up for it, for the rest of your life.
And I was pulling your leg, I guess it worked, I would love to have dinner with you, irrespective of how you asked me. I think I kinda imposed it on you to ask me out on a date. No worries though we will discuss all you want. Just one thing, How should I dress?
Anastasia Steele
Giggling Designer, Steele Furnishing

She's giggling, I can imagine her doing it, and it does things to my groin.

You are the only woman I have ever met and asked for date, so forgive me for the stereotype of the society. I have no experience whatsoever.
As I already said, you look beautiful no matter what you wear, I would love to see you in a dress and it would suit the place where I think I will take you.
And I will be waiting for that facetime.

Thank you very much for spilling the beans.
Don't worry if I forget to call you, Phoebe will remind me constantly. She likes you so much even Ted. He doesn't really open up to people easily but you seem to be an exception, it is as if they know you are their father it's so heartwarming to watch you all together.
Gotta go, the monsters demand attention.
BYE. XXX- from all three of us. ;)

Did she just send me kisses?
Not only from the kids but also from her.
Now thinking about those pretty pink lips does things to me.. again.
Things I have to take care of on my own.
What is she doing to me?
Whatever it is I don't want her to stop.
I am so looking forward to our date on Saturday.
But what do I do?
MIA.
I hope you guys liked this chapter. It was all about our favorite couple.
I personally loved this one but not so much because my neck and back are hurting so bad as I write it.
Also I have a treat coming up for you guys soon so kinda stay tuned. LOL.
I am trying to be more frequent to update my pinterest board but I am really not finding the time for it as I have had a lot of things on my plate recently.
Do drop your reviews, they not only motivate me to write( I am so motivated to write that I have the bundle of my books staring at me in my face with disdain as I have successfully wasted today and not seen them the whole day) but also somewhat decide where this story is heading as I start writing the next chapter after reading the reviews posted on Friday and Saturday morning, also if you want to suggest something you can drop it down.
As always constructive criticism is welcome.
Thank you everyone who take out the time to review.
