Troy's POV

"Daddy, please." Alec looked at me with puppy eyes.

Suddenly, Amber woke up and started crying, interrupting us.

"Your laugh woke her up; so you will smooth her." Sienna stated in a bossy tone, looking at Romeo.

"Fine." He sighed as he stood up and approached his daughter. "My princess, did you miss your charming, handsome father?" Romeo cooed Amber, grinning arrogantly as he took her in his arms.

"So humble as well!" I commented, rolling my eyes as I straightened and sat down beside Rose. Romeo gave me a dirty look while rocking his daughter gently.

"What do you think? Our son wants a baby sister." I whispered in Rose's ear, smirking while the others were busy with Amber.

"Troy!" She exclaimed, blushing, and gave me a dirty look. I grinned in amusement.

After spending some time at Sienna's, we left. I was going to drop Alec and Rose off the mansion and go to my penthouse.

"Will you come with us to Rome?" Alec asked, sitting on his car seat while I was driving the car.

"Are you going to Rome?" I mumbled, stunned, looking at him in the rear-view window, and turned my gaze from my son to Rose. She bit her lower lip, averting her gaze.

"Yes. Mommy told me we are going to celebrate my birthday there." Alec stated in excitement.

I gritted my teeth and tightened my grip around the steering wheel.

"When were you planning to tell me, Rose?" I asked between gritted teeth, trying to control myself as much as possible.

"Umm... I didn't have an opportunity to tell you. I need to discuss the new collection with my boss. Because of it, Ed.... Eduardo came here to replace me while I will be in Rome." Rose replied.

"How long will you stay there?" I asked and heaved a sigh, shaking my head.

"I don't know. A week or more." She shrugged her shoulders.

I gritted my teeth in annoyance and checked my son in the rear-view mirror; he was playing with his plane.

"Fine. We will take my jet." I informed firmly while thinking how I would manage my work in the company.

"What?" She asked, puzzled.

"I will go with you. I don't want to stay away from my son. Especially, I don't want to miss his birthday again." I stated as sadness crossed my features.

"But your company?" She asked and bit her lower lip.

"Dad will handle the meetings I have to attend, and I will manage the other things from Rome. So there will be no problem." She nodded, giving me a slight smile.

Rose's POV

I sighed, ruffling my hair as I finished my sketch. I rubbed my neck and looked at Troy who was working on the laptop. He looked so sexy with a concentrated expression on his face.

We were flying in his private jet. An hour later, we were about to land in Rome.

I leaned back against my seat while watching him. Troy looked different when he was working, more confident, serious and almost intimidating; I had never seen him while he was working before.

Troy was rubbing his chin while his focus was on his laptop. Then he breathed deeply, closing the lid of his laptop, and looked at me, catching me off guard. Troy gave me a boyish smile as he saw I was watching him.
