Mommy…Can You Win Daddy’s Love Again? - Chapter 242

Adrian helped Katherine change into the pajamas as her shoulder was injured. Then, he suggested that she needs some rest. So she went to bed to relax. They both were tired after the long day they had. Katherine almost fell asleep as soon as she lay on the bed.

After some time, she heard the knock on the door. Katherine opened her eyes and looked at the bedside clock. It was already 10 o’clock in the night. She heard the water running sound from the bathroom then thought Adrian was taking a bath. Katherine was confused about who could be at the door at this hour.

Katherine, who had injured her shoulder, walked towards the door and opened it. She noticed her mother in law, Maria with a plate of food along with her friend, Ruby. Even though you’re tired on the journey, you should now skip the food. Don’t you know that you need to take medicines after dinner?” Maria said in an angry tone. ” I am sorry, mom, I sleot without my knowledge, ” Katherine replied, looking down.

It’s okay. Sit on the chair. I will feed you…” Maria said, commandingly.

…

When Adrian came out of the bath, he noticed his mother feeding his wife. He felt a sense of pride seeing his mother feeding his wife. He smiled at the thought that they are a family. He walked towards his wife, kneeled in front of her, and kissed her forehead. “How are you feeling?”

“I am fine…”She replied with a small smile.

” Adrian, shall I bring food to your room?” Ruby asked him. “No…I will come to the dining hall. I have something to talk about with Steven ” he informed them then he asked her “Do you have your dinner?”

“Yeah…I have my dinner along with Aunt Maria. You and Steven are left to have dinner” Ruby answered. Adrian nodded and went to the changing room. He wore a night suit and came out.

“Mom…hope you will be with Kathie, till I am back…” Adrian asked his mother who was feeding his wife. She smiled back at him and nodded. Then both Ruby and Adrian walked out of the room, “Where is Steven? “he asked Ruby while walking to the dining hall.

“May he is in the bedroom. I will go and inform you that you are waiting for him to have dinner” She said and turned back to the stairway.”Ruby…no…stop ‘ Adrian stopped her.

She looked at him confusingly and said, “It’s already late. Let me call him for dinner “. He held her wrist and informed her, ” you are pregnant. And it is not good to ascend stairs during pregnancy. Already you went through so much earlier ”

” Is it so? Should a pregnant woman ascend stairs frequently?” All of a sudden, they heard Steven’s voice. Adrian nodded and looked at Ruby. ” Ruby… You should have told me about this before…”Steven glared at her.

Ruby sighed. She knew that she would get into trouble for this. But she didn’t want to worry him. “It’s okay if you climb one or two times a day…”She replied to escape from him.

He wanted to talk with her once they went to their bedroom. So he walked towards the dining table and joined Adrian. The two of them sat opposite each other. It was quiet during dinner. He observed that she looked pale and tired. Adrian must notice the change too. Ruby was sleepy and wanted to sleep. While she was walking towards the stairway, Steven stopped her and asked her to sit beside him in a stern voice. She looked at him pleadingly as she was so sleepy.

” Do you have fruit juice after dinner? ” He asked Ruby. She nodded her head and said, ” No. I will have it tomorrow morning “. Steven called the maid and instructed her to prepare apple juice for her. She kept a helpless face and stared at Adrian for help. Instead of helping Ruby, ” I don’t take proper diet then it affects the baby’s health ” Adrian said.

“You are exactly right, ” Steven added. She looked at both of them as she was stuck in a lion’s den. She sat silently without uttering a single word. By the end of dinner, Steven asked looking at Adrian, ” Do you thoroughly go through the documents which I gave to you on the plane? ”

Adrian nodded and looked at Ruby from the corner of his eyes. He doesn’t want to discuss this in front of Ruby. ” We will talk about this matter once Katherine is completely recovered. I already thought about what to do…” Adrian replied, cleaning his hands.

Steven understood that Adrian took a firm decision on this matter. Steven nodded his head without inquiring about his decision. ” Good night… Steven…Good night Ruby…”Saying Adrian stood up from the chair, wiping his hands with a napkin.

” Before going to bed, make sure she drinks apple juice…” Adrian remembered and walked away from them. Just in time, the maid came with a glass of apple juice.

” Stev…please… I am not in a mood to have this juice… ” She pleaded with puppy eyes. ” Place it on the table in my bedroom,” he instructed the maid. She walked towards the stairs leaving them alone.

“Let’s go….” Steven said, looking at her. The next minute, he picked them up in his arms as bridal style and asked her to place her hands around his shoulders. She widened her eyes and looked around as the maids and bodyguards were around them.

“Stev… please keep me down. Everyone’s eyes are on us” she said.

Slowly she stood up and opened the door. She saw Ruby standing at the door along with Maria. Ruby was holding a plate of food in her hand. ” What are you doing here? It is very late” Katherine asked. ” We were worried about you and your husband. You were not at dinner and we didn’t know where you were ” Ruby said, “I brought you food. You must be hungry. ” Ruby said and placed the food on the desk.

Katherine looked at the food. , ” You shouldn’t bring it to the room. You might send any guard to inform you about the dinner” Katherine said. Ruby smiled and said, ” As your sister, it’s my duty”

” Thank you Ruby for coming all the way here to bring it.
