Cheating on her
Nathalie could not help but to hug her son, the woman spread her arms and snuggled him in. Khal had already had so much in such a young age and when he finally found his mother back she was drifted into a coma. The boy started to sob after Nathalie pulled him into a tight hug. Lucas on the other hand stood there completely quiet since he had no clue why the old man brought the child there so soon.
He looked at grandpa Lancaster who in turn just shrugged making it clear that Khal insisted on coming. However, since he had arrived and the way Nathalie had a reunion with her there was no way she was going to spare him any time soon. It made Lucas even more anxious that he might not get time to tell Nathalie about the whole situation. Whereas Nathalie seemed to be totally better with Khal being around.
Lucas figured out that probably he should give some time to her to figure out the new situation for now. After all, she was pregnant and would definitely ask the staff for her reports to dig in that matter. Lucas decided to let her handle the matter all by herself assuming that probably things might be better that way.
“I missed you so much, baby.”
Nathalie hugged Khal even tighter as she wrapped his small body within hers and tears began to fall from her eyes. She was sure that nothing could make her happier than being with her son. Whereas at that moment Lucas seemed to find himself as an outsider as the man crept out of the room quietly.
Grandpa Lancaster followed him out of the cabin and found Lucas leaning against the wall. He could see utter pain over his face and decided to talk to him, after all he was the love of his granddaughter.
“You should have told her the truth now. It was the right moment for everything.”
The old man knew what it meant to be found in a helpless situation in the future which would just be the result of his own actions.
“You should know Lucas, she is not the forgiving one but she might because you are the father of her child. Confess before it is too late for both of you to mend the things.”
Grandpa Lancaster spoke his part and waited for Lucas to react to anything. It was evident from his expressions that he was devastated upon seeing that Nathalie did not seem to believe him.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Lucas had to seize the opportunity or make one as soon as possible to ensure that he would be able to confess to his wife. There was so much he wished to say but could not because the way Nathalie reacted in disbelief to the news she saw devastated him. He was certain that no matter what Nathalie would believe him but it appeared that the woman had her own doubts.
“I will.. before it is too late.”
He assured the old man before Lucas left for his work, he also had to arrange some stuff before Nathalie could get discharged. Since the woman was totally unaware of the financial crises they had faced, Nathalie practically had nowhere to go now. Lucas had taken Khal and her grandfather to his place and to prevent Nathalie from getting a potential shock he had to run back home to train his staff.
Lucas could not afford to give his wife a big surprise who had just woken up from a coma. She was already not on good terms with him and now that everything was not in Lucas’ favour he had to remain cautious. The man rushed back home to make some arrangements so that he could make the staff lie about the whole situation.
Back in the ward Nathalie and Khal were still talking to each other when the little boy placed his hand over her tummy.
“I am very happy to see my little sister, mommy. Daddy said she will be so small and I have to hold her with great care.”
The way Khal massaged her belly and made a remark over Lucas, she could not help but feel overwhelmed.
There were multiple emotions Nathalie felt at that moment because she had not expected Lucas to take care of her son. It made her suspicious about all those rumours she heard about him. Khal was still blabbering about the instruction Lucas gave him about the little kiddo who would come into their lives soon.
‘It does not make any sense. If Lucas had an affair with that woman he would have not taken care of someone else’s child. He knows Khal is Diego’s son and….’
Her trail of thoughts paused as the woman traced hand over her tummy and realised that whatever she might have thought for Lucas could be wrong.
Nathalie had not spent a lot of time with him but she was well aware of what he could do. And exactly that made her realise that something big must have been ongoing and she needed to find it. The woman could not believe that a person like him could be so polite and caring not to forget good with kids.
‘I have to find out why Lucas is being the centre of attention. Something does not feel right to me.’
She was sure that something might have hidden from her eyes which was why Nathalie wished to get discharged sooner. She knew that Lucas was just an ordinary person she randomly picked up from the streets to marry. But now everything about him appeared to be suspicious suddenly and she could not deny it.
It was the moment when Nathalie recalled how he barged into the ward and how happy he looked over the news. However it was the same time she realised what he had been wearing and the truth dawned upon her. Nathalie could not help but widen her eyes remembering the expensive brand.
‘Oh god! No, no. Oh my goodness!’
Nathalie completely ignored Khal who had been speaking non-stop with a lot of suggestions. The poor kiddo seemed excited unlike his mother who appeared to be having multiple breakdowns.
‘He is indeed cheating on me for that rich woman!’
