My Little Sunshine - Chapter 291
“She’s completely fine, and so are the twins.” Dr. Matilda spoke up as she walked inside her office with Stella’s ultrasound reports in her hands. Her eyes trailed to the man who was sitting next to the lady and she couldn’t help but frown.
She was shocked to see Stella coming in this late for a check-up. But what shocked her more was the man who was accompanying her and his domineering presence. Despite being out of news for this long, Adam’s face wasn’t something which people could easily forget. But at the same time Matilda also remembered the face of the man who had accompanied Stella on her last visit.
Shaking her thoughts of her mind, she passed the reports to Stella which was snatched by a certain someone before her fingers could even touch the envelope. The man’s actions only left the doctor baffled. She was at a loss of words, not knowing what to say before him.
“I told you that I am fine, but you never listen to me.” Stella spoke up, her words resonating through the quiet room.
She shifted her gaze back to the doctor and gave her a polite smile. She could sense that Adam’s presence only was enough for the poor lady to be baffled. How would a person feel after seeing someone who was supposed to be dead long ago? Definitely, not good!
“Are you done staring at the ultrasound picture?” She spoke up again to get the man’s attention who was too lost in staring at the black and white echo image.
“Yes, sure, my love. And to answer your previous remark. I could see that you were fine, but I am never taking any risk when it comes to your well being of our children’s well being. “Let’s go now, shall we?” He extended his hand towards her after putting the reports back inside it’s envelope.
Stella gave him an eye roll, but still took his hand before turning her attention to the doctor who was still staring at the duo. “Thank you so much for giving us your time. And I apologise for troubling you at this hour.” She gave the lady a bright smile.
“It’s no problem. It’s a good thing that I had a case earlier on, so you just caught me in time. Ten more minutes or so, I would have left for home.” Matilda spoke up as she gave her a smile in return.
“Let’s go.” She spoke to Adam as she stood up and the man followed suit.
Adam gave the doctor a nod in recognition before guiding her wife out of the office.
Matilda stared at their retreating backs and shook her head before getting back to her work. She needed to submit the report on the surgery she had performed before Stella and Adam found her, so that she could go home.
——-
“Where are we going?” Stella questioned him as she gazed out of the tinted window. The route didn’t seem familiar to her.
“You’ll see.” Adam replied to her briefly which only piqued her interest.
She gazed out of the window once again to make sure that they were not heading either towards the mansion or the penthouse. She shifted her gaze back to her man and pursed her lips in a pout when she found him busy in his phone. But deciding not to disturb him, she turned her head around as she went back to staring outside.
She gazed at the tall trees as they swished by her vision. She stared into the distance and gazed at the half moon, shining up in the sky as it played hide and seek with white clouds.
“What are you looking at?”
A deep, familiar voice pulled her out of her thoughts, making her shift her attention to the man.
“Nothing! I was just thinking that everything can go back to the way it was now.” She spoke up as she scooted closer to him after seeing his empty hands.
As if it was what the man was waiting for, he pulled her on his lap in one swift yet careful motion. “I hope so too. I just need to take care of some matters.” He adjusted her position slightly so that her back was comfortably resting against his chest.
Stella sneaked a look at the divider and relaxed a little after seeing that it was raised. “What matters?” Stella turned slightly on his lap so that she could look at his face and questioned him.
“Just a bunch of matters at the base. After I am done with them, I will take care of the office too. You just need to look after the matters back at the company until then.” He answered her as he rubbed the back of her head lovingly.
“Yeah, sure! Your wife here is capable enough to look after the company for a little longer.” Stella gave him a proud smirk.
Hearing her more than confident words, Adam couldn’t help but chuckle. “Of course! My wife is more than capable of looking after the entire Levinson Empire.” He pressed his lips against her forehead after praising her.
“Are you going to tell me now about where we are going?” She asked him again, giving it one more shot to squeeze some information out of him. Even though she knew he wouldn’t tell her if he had set his mind on it, she still wanted to try.
“No!” He shook his head and flicked her forehead. “You will have to see it yourself.” He added with a smirk as he knew how she hated being kept in the dark. She would become really cranky instead of looking forward to the surprise. “I will just tell you that it’s a place.”
Hearing his words, Stella let out an annoyed groan. She knew that he had deliberately said that just to tease her. She shifted her face away from the man, but still continued to rest on his lap.
Seeing her expressions, Adam’s lips curled up in a bright smile as he snaked his arms around her and pulled her to rest on his chest.
