Chapter 70: Ch.69/ You Are My Destiny
Alessandro's POV:-
"Are you sure about the name, Cara?" I ask while writing down the name of our son in his birth certificate that needs to be fulfilled before we can take him home with us.
"Yes, his name is going to be Ethan Bianchi because he is a strong person like his papa and in the future, he will show everyone that he isn't someone anyone should mess with." Anhuphama replies looking at the baby with pride shining in her eyes. I smile at her decision before filling the form that is needed to be filled to get the birth certificate.
The authority talk to us about various things and in the end, they give us the green light to take Ethan home with us. We haven't told anyone about our decision of adopting a baby as we don't know how everyone will react. We are directly going to the airport from here because we can not wait any longer to take our son home.
When we get into the jet all the staff look confused as they are not definitely not expecting to see us with a baby. So I introduce the baby as our son Ethan Bianchi. I sit on the chair with Ethan in my arms while Anhuphama goes to the washroom to get changed as our son vomited on her on the way to the airport.
"You have so many siblings waiting for you at home, buddy. Although they don't know about you yet but I am sure that they will love you a lot." I tell my boy who is looking at me with his innocent eyes while sucking his pacifier.
"What are you both gossiping about?" Anhuphama asks coming out of the washroom before taking Ethan in her arms.
"I am just telling him that he is going to be so loved by his siblings." I reply which makes my beautiful wife happy.
"I can not wait to see Ian's expression because it will be his first time interacting with a baby younger than him." She replies looking excited.
"I just hope he doesn't throw a tantrum when he realizes that he now has to share his mommy time with his little brother." I let out with a sigh because Ian is a complete mommy's boy. He doesn't like to share his mother with others except his big sissy and his big furry brothers.
"Don't worry, I am sure Ian will love Ethan as much as he loves his other siblings." She says with assurance to which I nod my head in response.
After a very long journey, the jet stops in the LA airport where my car is already parked. I take Ethan in my arms while Anhuphama walks ahead of me before we make our way out of the jet. Samuel along with the other guards come walking near us but they stop midway when they notice a baby in my arms.
"I will tell you everything later." I inform them before getting inside the car. I put Ethan in Ian's car seat and remind myself that I need to get another car seat for the new addition to the family.
After reaching the Bianchi mansion I ask Samuel to come inside with us because he has become a very good friend of mine so he should know about Ethan along with others. I have already called Uncle Gabriel and Mama to come here so I know that they are in the mansion too. The door of the mansion gets open by a maid who welcomes us. We walk into the living room where everyone is waiting for us.
"Welcome ba-" Mama stops mid-sentence when she notices the baby in my arms.
"Boy don't tell me you have cheated on my dolcezza." Mama says in a scolding tone making my mouth hang open.
"Mama you know well that I am not like Marco." I reply getting a swat from my wife who takes Ethan from me before going in front of Mama.
"Alessandro didn't cheat on me Mama Melody. But this baby is our son, Ethan Bianchi." Anhuphama says while putting Ethan in Mama's arms who looks confused.
"I am not understanding what you are saying." Mama says while the others nod their heads.
"We have adopted Ethan from the orphanage in Italy where I was raised." I reply making their eyes widen.
"But why this sudden adoption?" Mr. Sengupta as Anhuphama's father asks who has Ian in his arms. So, I narrate the whole situation that happened in the orphanage.
"You both have done a very good job in adopting this little munchkin." Uncle Gabriel comments with a smile.
"Now, I have another nephew to spoil." Mr. Ganguly lets out before touching Ethan's cheeks.
"And I have a new grandson to love." Mr. Sengupta aka Anhuphama's uncle says who has Vivaan on his arms.
"Let's go, Ethan. Mami will show you around your new house and also change your clothes." Mrs. Ganguly says while taking Ethan in her arms before going upstairs.
"Where are my princess and my boys?" I ask after taking Ian in my arms.
"As usual, they are playing in the garden. Wait, I will call them." Mama says but I stop her saying that I am going there to meet them. I give Ian back to Anhuphama who looks happy to have him in her arms. When I get into the garden a smile makes its way to my face seeing that my daughter is watering a flower plant.
She is the complete replica of her mother in gentleness and I am extremely proud to be her papa. She likes to work with the gardener while planting new plants around the garden and also loves to bake
cookies with her Nonna. She can speak more properly as she has been learning to read and write from her mother.
"Princess!" I call out before making my way towards her.
"Papa you come back." She yells running with a big smile on her face.
"I have missed you, piccolo." I let out while kissing her on the top of her head.
"Me missed you too, papa." She replies putting her head on my shoulder.
"I have a surprise for you." I tell her in which she lifts her head from my shoulder before asking me what is it. So, I tell her that we need to get inside. I also tell the dogs to follow me as I want them to meet the new member of our family.
The moment we get into the living room the furry babies run towards Anhuphama who crouches down to hug them. They barks, whines showing their distress being away from her for so many days. It's incredible to see the change in their behavior because now they favor their mum over me. I am not complaining though.
"I know I know, I missed you too my boys." Anhuphama says while kissing the dogs on their heads.
"Mum-mum I here." Our daughter calls out while wiggling out of my arms to go to her mother.
"Awe my baby. Come here, let mum-mum love you." Anhuphama says and picks up our daughter in her arms who looks very happy to be in her mother's arm.
"Mum-mum, papa say you bring surpwise for me. Where surpwise now?" Our daughter asks looking here and there for the surprise.
"Let's go upstairs so we can show you the surprise." Anhuphama replies with a smile before we excuse ourselves and walk upstairs with Ian in my arms while the dogs follow us behind. We get inside our bedroom before asking the kid to sit patiently on the bed while Anhuphama goes to Mrs. Ganguly's room to get Ethan. I look at Ian who is giggling looking at Tank so I put him on the bed while surrounding him with two little pillows on both sides. Instantly the dogs lie down beside him and my daughter starts making funny faces to entertain her darling little brother. I just hope that they will have the same bond with Ethan too.
A few minutes later Anhuphama walks inside the room with Ethan in her arms which does not get unnoticed by the dogs as well our daughter who has a frown on her face. I sit beside her on the bed while Anhuphama puts Ethan in the middle of the bed. King is the first one to approach Ethan with sniffing him. One by one, all the dogs start to do the same and after a few minutes they sit down around the new baby.
"Who this papa?" My princess asks curiosity lacing in her voice.
"Princess, his name is Ethan and he doesn't have any mum or papa to take care of him so we have been thinking about keeping him with us. He was so lonely that he used to cry a lot but now that he is here, he is looking very happy. Don't you want him to be happy?" I let out in hope that my daughter will accept the new addition to the family. I look at Anhuphama and notice that she is also looking worried.
"Oh papa me take care him. He like baby Ian so he my broder too. He live with us." My princess says before kissing Ethan on his forehead making me sigh in relief.
"Are you sure, Advira? You want him as your brother?" Anhuphama asks our daughter who nods her enthusiastically.
"You know you're the best big sister in the whole world." I tell her earning a cute pout from her.
"Me best lil sishter too." My princess retorts with a huff making me laugh at her.
"Of course, my daughter is the best little and big sister." I reply which makes her smile before she goes back to playing with Ethan and Ian. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

It's been three weeks since we have brought Ethan home and I must say that everyone loves the little bundle of joy. Even Ian because he starts crying whenever anyone tries to take his little brother away from his side.
Right now, I am running late because I need to take my princess to her new playschool and also I have to attend a meeting at the company which I have been neglecting for some time.
When I get out of the house after bidding goodbye to my boys and my Tesoro I find my princess waiting outside with her backpack on.
"Why you late?" My princess asks when I put her in the car seat.
"I was talking to Auntie Bianca about something important piccolo." I reply while asking the driver to start the car.
"Oh okie." She replies with a smile looking like her mum-mum. I kiss her on the cheeks before giving her a candy.
After dropping my princess at her playschool the car starts moving towards the company while I look at the presentation sent by the experts of my company. I quickly make a few changes that will gain us more points in getting the deal. The car stops in front of the company and I get out before making my way inside where the employees greet me because it's been months since I have come here. I thank them and ask them to get back to work.
"Finally, you are here boss." Bianca lets out coming inside my cabin.
"Yes, I am back and I have to attend meetings after meetings if I want to keep my company in the top." I reply with a wink making her laugh before both of us starts discussing about the upcoming projects in our hands.
After four hours of non-stop meetings, I get a little time to relax so I decide to call Anhuphama to see what she is doing. But when she doesn't receive my call I get worried so I call Mrs. Ganguly and she informs me that Anhuphama has gone to her company as she needs to sign some documents very urgent. I thank her and cut the call. I look at the time and realize that it's time for lunch.
"I will be back in an hour. I have something to do." I inform Bianca who is talking to some employees before getting out of the building to pay a surprise visit to my wife. However, when I reach her company I get to know from her assistant that she has refused to eat lunch as she is very busy in preparing an urgent presentation. I ask her assistant to send lunch to the cabin before I get inside without knocking on the door.
"Does your work more important than your health, Anhuphama?" I ask making her startle before she juts her bottom lip out in a pout trying to appear innocent in front of me.
"I am not falling for your innocent look. So, come here and eat your lunch." I order while pointing to the couch in which she grumbles under her breath but compiles to my words. When lunch arrives, I feed her with my hands as I know she is going to throw a tantrum.
"I have my own hands." Anhuphama says while rolling her eyes at me.
"Then you should have used them before." I reply getting a glare from her.
"I am just trying to finish the presentation in time and that's why I refused to eat lunch." She lets out looking guilty.
"I know you love your work but you have so many people in your who can make the presentation. Also, if you don't eat in time then how will you be able to take care of our sons who are completely dependent on you?" I ask wanting her to understand that she needs to eat on time.
"I am sorry, Alessandro. I am promising you I will not skip my meals next time." She replies making me smile at her.
"That's like my good wife. Now, come on finish this food because I have to get back to my company to attend a meeting." I tell her before we both start eating our lunch together.

Anupama's POV:-
"Ian open your mouth baby. Look Vivaan is eating his food like a good boy." I tell my stubborn boy who only shakes his head. I sigh in defeat because he is doing this for some days and I don't know what to do.
"Anu, I think he is teething and that's why he is refusing to eat. Try to give him yogurt and let see if he eats it or not." Jasmine di suggests while feeding Vivaan some mashed veggies.
I nod my head before taking a little bit of homemade yogurt in the bowl before holding a spoonful of it in front of Ian's mouth who looks skeptical at first but then opens his mouth to eat the yogurt. I smile when again he willingly open his mouth for more yogurt. After feeding him I pick him up from his highchair to get him in clean clothes.
"Di, I am going to Ian's nursery to change his clothes." I inform Jasmine di who nods her head in response.
Upon arriving in Ian's nursery I take off his sticky clothes before wiping his body with a baby wipe and put fresh clothes on him. I then call out to King who runs inside the room and asks him to look after his little brother as I am going to feed Ethan. I get a small bark in response making me happy that my big boy is such a good big brother.
I leave the nursery before going to my bedroom where Ethan is playing with his lion plushie which is gifted by his boro dadu. I pick him up in my arms and sit down on the recliner before starting to breastfeed him. He is only two months old so he only drinks breastmilk and I am happy that I can feed him properly. He falls asleep right after his feeding is completed so I take him to his nursery before placing him inside the crib for a nap. Zeus and Boomer are already in the nursery so I don't need to worry about anything because my boys are always going to look after their baby brother.
I then peak at Advira's room to see what she is doing and I bit my lip to stop myself from laughing at how bored Tank looking while his baby sister put an empty teacup in front of him. Still he licks inside the tea cup making Advira giggle in happiness. Without disturbing them, I close the door before going downstairs to look for my husband and my other two furry babies.
"Samuel, have you seen Alessandro?" I ask after getting outside the mansion when I don't find them inside.
"He is in the stable." Samuel replies with a smile. I thank him and walk towards the stable. I halt in midway when I notice that Fonsie and Scout are chasing a squirrel. So, I walk near them before asking them to stop running. I glare at Scout when he starts to whine when the squirrel runs out of the site.
"Don't you dare to kill that squirrel and get back inside the house or you will not get to eat the treat I have made." I let out while pointing towards the house and the two runs inside. I shake my head before walking towards the stable in search of my husband.
Just as I have assumed Alessandro is riding the new horse which have arrived just two days ago. This horse is a rescue from which has come from New Jersey and now it's going to stay in here with other four horses.
"Alessandro, the lunch is ready." I tell him when he stops in front of me.
"Okay, let me put her inside the stable and then I will join you." He replies and soon he comes back out of the stable.
"Where are Fonsie and Scout?" He asks when he doesn't see the two.
"I have ordered them to get inside. They were chasing a squirrel and when I asked them to stop Scout started to whine. So, I threatened them by saying that I would not let them eat the treat." I let out with a huff making him laugh.
"It's true that Huskies are the most dramatic dogs in the world." He replies in which I laugh along with him.

It's now night time and everyone is asleep except me because I have something to do which includes waking up Alessandro who is now sleeping soundly. I walk to his side of the bed before kneeling in front of his sleeping face. I run my hand through his hair and place a small kiss on his forehead.
"Alessandro, wake up." I whisper getting a grumble from him. I again call out his name but this time a little louder. Finally, he wakes up and looks at me with confusion. I pick up the little Panettone from the nightstand before showing it to my stunned husband who doesn't realize what's the meaning of it.
"Happy Birthday, Alessandro." I wish and a smile break out in his handsome face before he sits properly on the bed.
"Thank you so much, amore mio." He replies after I feed him a little piece of the sweet bread.
"Wait, I have something for you." I tell him before I walk inside the closet to bring the gift I have gotten for him. After picking up the box in my hand I return back to the bed while asking him to open the box. He gives me a curious look but opens the box revealing a gold bracelet.
"I know you love to wear bracelets so I thought that it will be the best gift for you." I tell him.
"I loved it, Cara. Thank you so much for this amazing gift. Why don't you put it on my wrist?" He asks in which I nod my in excitement. I pick up the bracelet out of the box before placing it on his wrist.
"Thank you so much for the surprise, too." He says before kissing me gently on the lips.
"I wanted to plan a big surprise birthday party for you but I know you don't like big parties. So, this is the least I can prepare in this short time. However, we will be having lunch with everyone tomorrow to celebrate your birthday and I don't want to hear any complaint from you." I order while pointing a finger at him in which he chuckles before nodding his head.
"I will do anything my queen wants me to do." He replies making me smile at him. After that, we both lie down on the bed and I put my head on his chest while he wraps his arm around my waist pulling me towards him. I think about the time we have spent with each other and how many changes have come in our lives. I can not ask for anything more than this because I have gotten everything without asking.
