Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

Chapter 60 

As soon as Ciara finished her work, she looked at her phone and saw the text coming from Callum Haynes. 

Callum: 

We’re in the parking lot. 

She unconsciously stepped two times faster than usual while the employees were stopping and bowing to her, greeting her. 

She smiled for a minute, then went to the parking lot until a car beeped and stepped forward to pick her up. 

The door on the front seat opened until she saw Callum in the driver’s seat and Cara in the back seat. 

“Mommy!” she greeted cheerfully. 

Ciara smiled and slipped into the front seat, closing the door and greeting Cara, who leaned between the seats just to have a hug and a kiss for her mother. 

“Hello, sweetheart. How are you?” 

I’m fine, mommy. How are you?” she imitated in her little excited voice. 

“I’m quite tired, and 1 missed you for a day. But I’m fine now,” she conversed softly as well while looking at her daughter with those twinkling eyes. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Callum couldn’t help but smile at how the two looked so cute talking together. Ciara noticed that he was holding back his smile, but it still showed as he started driving. 

Cara is now extra hyper now that her mother is with them. She was now singing and moving her head, unlike when Ciara wasn’t there with them, as she would silently glance outside the window like a puppy who looked so lost. 

“I’ll buy some food first so we can eat for our picnic dinner,” Callum said as he went to the restaurant’s parking lot. 

“Picnic dinner?” she asked, a bit confused. 

“I want to show Cara my favorite spot where I was taking you.” 

She suddenly remembered the place where they  , and she couldn’t speak right away because of the explicit scene getting into her mind so continuously that she could even remember her moaning. 

And when Callum looked at her as well, he smirked a little, like he knew what was going on in her mind, which made her flush 

a bit. 

“Do you want to come with me, little girl?” Callum invited. 

Ciara then glanced at Cara, nodding at her, urging her to bond with her father at least. And Cara, the obedient kid to her mother, slowly nodded and got out of the car. 

Callum carried her for the first time, which Cara didn’t expect as she silently looked around while Callum was now walking to the exclusive restaurant. 

“Do you like pizza?” he asked while they were approached by a waiter who guided them to the table. 

“Mommy likes pizza,” she reasoned. 

“Alright. We’ll have a takeout, Callum informed the waiter, who nodded at him. 

Callum ordered something they could easily eat; a dessert and pizza, as well as some drinks. Though he wasn’t fond of sweets, he was trying it out now for his daughter. 

After the takeout, a man came to them, which was Callum’s men they needed to help him out with things. 

who were following him in secret and would just pop

137 PM 

Chapter no 

When they were back in the car, Ciara could feel the excitement in Cara as she continuously glanced at the window, checking where they were, 

“She’s excited,” Ciara whispered, and Callum glanced at her. 

“Really? How can you tell?” he asked, looking in the mirror to check on her. 

“Her ears get flushed when she’s excited about something,” she whispered. 

Callum’s brows knitted as soon as he remembered how Cara’s ears were so flushed earlier. 

“She gets excited?” he repeated like it wasn’t clear to her. 

“Yes. Like that,” Ciara answered. 

“Oh, so that’s the reason why…” 

“Why?” she asked, looking at the back and noticing Cara was humming near the window while moving her head as she looked 

at the view. 

“I asked if she would like to eat ice cream, but she refused and told me she’s not into sweets.” 

Ciara could immediately tell how Cara was refusing anything from Callum, and even the ice cream that Cara enjoys the most, for the first time, she declined. 

When Callum realized what was happening too and what his daughter just did, his brows rose, like he caught her rejecting him in some other language he didn’t understand. 

“I’ll work on it,” he abruptly said, nodding like it was his mistake and he wasn’t offended that he got rejected by her 

Ciara was a bit worried, but at the same time, as she said to Cara, it’s okay if it’s slow. She could take her time. 

When they arrived at the destination, just like Ciara’s reaction the first time Callum took her to that place, it reflected on Cara 

this time. 

Her eyes were wide, and her lips parted. It seemed like it was the first time she had seen a beautiful place in her entire life that she was so amused. 

“Wow..” she gasped uncontrollably. 

When Callum saw her reaction, he could not help but smile, like he had done something big to deserve her priceless reaction. He was busy taking out the cloth they would use for the picnic on the cargo of his car, where they would settle down, while Ciara helped her take out the food as well so they could arrange it. 

“Wow.” Cara gasped again as her eyes continuously roamed around. 

“You like it?” Ciara asked and smiled while putting the food on the cloth. 

“Yes.” She nodded without glancing at her mother anymore. 

Ciara and Callum looked at each other as Ciara saw the proud smile Callum wore. 

“Come here. Callum carried Cara on the sides of her armpit and then put her into the cargo bed. “There you go…” 

Cara was still in awe while she couldn’t help but look at the sparkling lights and lift her head to see the stars scattered in the darkness of the sky. 

“It reminds me of that Disney movie, Mommy,” she said excitedly. 

“Ciara could really tell Cara was having fun if she would relate it to Disney, her favorite. They were squatting in the cargo bed while there was food they could eat as their view was the city lights, 

Maybe Cara was so distracted by how amazed she was with the view that when Callum fed her, she unconsciously opened her Maybe Cara was so distracted by how antazed she was with mouth relate the food while her eyes were still glued to the overlooking city lights. 

Clara could feel the warmth of being complete. To see her daughter being fed by her father melted her. She could really tel that Callum knows how to get his daughter’s trust, and the more he makes an effort, the more Cara will be tamed. 

“Who owned this place?” Cara asked. 

“It’s my own property,” Callum responded, handing her the slice of pizza as Cara unconsciously opened her mouth again, leaning closer and taking a bite on the tip. 

“You bought this?” she asked, a bit stunned. 

“Yes. 

Ciara was so entertained watching her daughter’s reaction, as if she weren’t the daughter of a billionaire herself, that she was shocked people could buy big things. 

“Can we…buy places like this too, mommy?” Cara whispered, which Callum heard 

“You could have this place too, Cara. This is mine. You are my daughter, which means you have access here. So technically. this is yours too.” 

Cara’s eyes widened. She didn’t expect it. 

“I can…have this?” she asked in disbelief. “I can own this too. 

Callum nodded, his smile mingling with his amusement. 

“Mommy, I can have this,” she clarified, bewildered by what she heard.. 

Ciara nodded. “Your father said yes, so yes, you can own this.” 

She gasped and looked at the city lights again, as she couldn’t believe it. 

“But…this is too big for me. I am just…a baby,” 

Ciara and Callum chuckled. A daughter of both billionaires sounded so humble that she looked so cute upon her realization. “Where did you bring my mommy? Do you still have places like this?” Cara asked curiously. 

“Hmm… somewhere in the province with horses and a huge forest with lots of trees and a big garden,” he explained. 

Ciara couldn’t help but smile because she knew that the way he explained it would pique Cara’s interest more, knowing that most of the Disney movies she was watching involved horses and that it happened in forests and gardens. 

“Horses?” she asked, her eyes sparkling like the twinkling stars in the sky. 

“Yes, horses, Lots of horses.” 

“Like…ten horses?” 

“More than ten,” Callum answered giddily. 

“Have you been there a lot of times, mommy?” She asked. 

“Well, I once owned it, but I sold it when I went to Paris.” 

“What?!” She looked so offended and betrayed. 

“That’s why I bought it. Your mom isn’t really quite sentimental,” he teased. 

Ciara arched her brow, “I haven’t been spending my time too much there,” she defended. 

“I love that place, It holds memories I wanted to keep, Callum said meaningfully. “It felt like home.”
