Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

Chapter 250 - Love And Care Never Fades Away



Ruby's body stiffened when Maria questioned her about pregnancy. She turned her head towards Steven as he disclosed the truth without informing her. 

" Yes….Aunt Maria. She is pregnant with my child. We both are in love with each other, " Steven said, walking towards Ruby. He placed his hand around her shoulder and squeezed her shoulder blade without anyone's notice. Ruby raised her head to the side as she was a bit shorter than him and then looked at Steven.

" Is it true? " Maria asked Katherine. Katherine nodded her head as if a thief was caught by the police.

" Yes...mom…" Katherine nodded her head hesitantly.

" You both would have planned for the child after marriage. I don't know what this generation of people thinks of themselves. A child before wedlock!! " she said. Then she looked at both Steven and Ruby. She suggested, " Happened is happened. Better you both get married before giving birth to the child…" 

" Yes...Aunt Maria. I am also thinking the same…" Steven replied, looking at Adrian.

" Don't worry, it will happen as you planned" Adrian hummed with Steven. 

" Leave about Steven and Ruby's issue. Tell me whether you were forcing your decision on Kathie? " Maria asked, looking seriously at Adrian.

" Why don't you ask your beloved daughter-in-law? Whether I am forcing or not? " he questioned her back. Maria exchanged looks between Adrian and Katherine confusingly.

" Mom...I agreed with him. He was not forcing me " finally Katherine replied without looking at Maria. Maria understood that something was wrong between both. She glared at Adrian as she knew about her stubborn and angry son. 

Before Maria tried to know what was going on between them, Adrian said, " We have some changes in our plan. We are going to start tomorrow morning at ten o'clock in Steven's private jet…" 

" Tomorrow….Morning…" Ruby exclaimed in shock.

" Yes… I already arranged everything for the journey…" Steven said to everyone in a calm tone.

" When you make the decision, what is there to discuss…" saying Maria walked out seriously.

" What is going on...Steven? Even though you know it is dangerous for both, you are supporting Adrian, huh!! " Ruby said, gripping Steven's arms.

" Ruby...it was not my decision but Adrian's. I am just supporting him as I failed to convince him in changing his decision. I too don't know why he made this decision in a single night. I asked him many times but he didn't answer the questions" Steven explained.

" Ruby….stop discussing this topic. Go and take some rest…" Katherine said in a stern voice. She looked at Adrian and said, " Let's start packing our luggage " 

" See...how my wife is supportive. Just you both go and relax…" Adrian informed Ruby and Steven. They both looked at each other and slowly walked out of the room confusingly.

" Wifey...you still have seventeen hours to spend with our little champ. Utilise it very well…" Adrian advised. Katherine was looking at him with a burning gaze. But Adrian ignored her stares and laid beside little Sam on the bed. 

He took little Sam's small hands to his hands. He kissed his knuckles and said, " Little Champ...Be strong and get well soon. Your dadda is missing you so much…"

" Yeah...he is missing you so much. That's the reason, it planned to leave you with Aunt Ruby and your granny…" Katherine said sarcastically while looking at Adrian furiously.

" Kathie...just leave me alone with my son…" he said in a stern voice.

She took a few steps to leave but turned her head, " Why should I leave this room? I too want to spend my time with my little son…" saying, she came to the bed and sat at the edge of the bed.

There was thick silence between them. For a while, she lay on her side and stared at her son. Then she looked at Adrian who was lost in his thoughts. She was cursing her husband inside the heart to take the decision but she was helpless. She could not shout at him nor stay back with her son. 

With the sudden ringing of Adrian's mobile, her thoughts were interrupted. Immediately Adrian stood up from the bed and attended the call with a serious expression. 

" Yes...Duke… "

On hearing Duke's name, Katherine looked at Adrian with full of interest as she was curious to know how the company was running in their absence. 

" Do you contact the person whom I said? " he inquired. Adrian noticed Katherine's gaze. He doesn't want Katherine to hear their conversation. So he walked out of the room while he was speaking over the call.

Duke: Sir, I inquired personally about the matter you said. Whatever you got the information from the person is true.

Adrian: 

Do you know what was the reason behind it?

Duke: 

Sir...To take revenge on Mrs. Wilson and to hurt her.

Adrian : 

Okay. I will think about it. Did you meet Vanessa again? How is her health? 

Duke: 

Yes, sir. She came to our company for the job. As there are no vacancies, I help her financially. I am in contact with her. 

Adrian:

Thank you so much. Remember my words, don't try to misbehave with her. Already she is in so much pain losing her loved ones. 

Duke :

Sure sir. I will take care of her like a good friend. Don't worry.

Adrian: Keep giving me updates. Don't delay.

Duke :

Yes sir. Have a nice day.

…..

By the time he ended the call, Katherine was standing behind him. He didn't expect her presence so he was started when he turned back.

" Is everything alright at our company? " she asked anxiously, completely forgetting about the earlier incidents. He looked at her face and replied, " Everything is fine. No need to worry…"

She looked into his eyes and sensed something he was hiding from her.

" Tell me...truth. You are hiding something from me…" she said, worrying for him. His heartfelt warmth with her concern. He knew about her even though they had many differences, love and care between them would never fade away.

"One of the clients wanted to meet me so I informed Duke to arrange the meeting through video conference…" He lied.
