Chapter 157: Very unpredictable
“It means you are not leaving. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you. You misunderstood me Adrian. But not coming home these few days is really hurting me.
Let’s make up. We can’t have this misunderstanding while our kids watch us. What kind of example are we showing them? Please my love, I’m sorry for hurting you in any way possible” Jane apologised.
“I no longer hurt Jane. But I don’t want to be with you and Richard for now” Adrian declared.
“Are you hurting me because of Richard? It has always been you and I before Richard came. Why should you punish me because of him?
You know what, Richard is just like you. Two stubborn men and I find myself in the middle. Why are you punishing me, Adrian?” Jane pleaded.
She tiptoed and kissed Adrian, circling her hands around his neck. The two lovers were soon kissing each other passionately.
“Fine. If you also choose not to believe me, then there’s nothing I can do about it. But if you can, help me have a meeting with Genesis. I owe her an explanation” Richard requested.
“I don’t think she might be interested in talking to you. She’s trying hard to forget you. I think it’s working out for her. I don’t want you to see her to avoid bruising her healing wound” Arianna declared.
Soon Adrian Delmark came downstairs and Jane was helping him with a suitcase. The kids sighed when they saw their dad intertwined his fingers with their Mom.
“Dad, are you travelling?” Richard demanded, seeing the suitcase his Mom was holding.
“What does it seem to you?” Adrian asked, giving him a cold stare.
“Alright, dad” Richard nodded and then added “Dad, I’m resuming back in the hospital tomorrow”
“That would be good for you. At least you won’t be able to sleep with two women at a time anymore” Adrian snorted and kissed Arianna’s temple.
“I haven’t received my allowance for the Month” Richard requested. He followed his dad outside along with Arianna and Jane.
“I’ll send it later today. And you Arianna, I’ll send yours henceforth” Adrian declared.
Arianna was dazed. Richard still gets an allowance from his dad at his age? He is working as a doctor and yet his dad still gives him money?
“Thank you dad” Arianna appreciated.
“Thanks,” Richard said.
Adrian placed the suitcase in the car and kissed Jane’s temple, he did the same for Arianna and pulled Richard’s nose before getting in.
“I’ll miss my flight if I stay a minute longer” Adrian declared and waved them goodbye.
Jane waved at him and sighed. She turned and glared at Arianna “Your father is very unpredictable” She mumbled.
For the next few days, things remained the way they were. Jace didn’t come to the house and he didn’t give Arianna any single explanation why.
They see each other briefly in the office and Chase gets concentrated on his job. Jace was loading him with more work than usual, he would not complain but kept doing them.
Chase got to know that Richard Delmark was back at the hospital, so he went to see him. He told him that he was dying silently.
He couldn’t sleep. He stayed awake mostly at night. And when he eventually gets a little sleep, he would be awakened by nightmares.
Richard told him that he was feeling depressed because of the loss of his baby. He gave him some medication and told him he would have a good night’s rest that night.
It was past few days, before Jace decided to come home that night. Arianna was upset with him. They had dinner together and Eli asked his dad if he’d gotten him the baby he requested for.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
He went ahead and told his dad how his friend’s little baby was brought to the school. He also has told his friend that his daddy had promised to give him a baby.
Jace said his mommy will give him a baby. Arianna just pouted her lips, not answering him nor commenting on Eli and Jace’s discussion.
“Mommy, is it true that you will have a baby for me?” Eli asked, excited and giggling. His father’s words sweetened his belly.
“Your father is unable to help you. I will just watch you helplessly baby” Arianna declared and raised her head briefly, meeting with Jace’s gaze, she eyed him and continued having her dinner.
“Are you really ready to have it?” Jace asked. He was ready if Arianna was willing to get pregnant.
“I won’t be ready in the next ten years,” Arianna replied.
Jace sighed helplessly.
