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

Exist you getting angry at me for seriously talking with your wife? Maria asked her son.

" It\'s not like that…" Adrian replied.

" I mean to tell you that you can talk to her after some time…" he said.

" Okay. Take her to your bedroom and let her rest for some time, " she suggested. He nodded his head and ascended the stairs carrying her in his arms.

….

He placed her on the bed and sat beside her at the edge of the bed, then asked, " Why didn\'t you let me tell the truth? " 

" If Aunt came to know that you are drunk. She would have a bad impression of you. She would think you would be upset for small problems instead of being strong. I don\'t want her to think about you like that because she always thinks of you as a good son and responsible person, " Katherine explained.

" How could you think like that?? " he asked, caressing her cheeks.

She smiled sadly and said, " Time will teach us everything…" He looked into her eyes and sensed a hidden pain in her eyes. He leaned towards her and pecked her forehead.

" Take some rest for one week. I don\'t want you to come to the company, " he informed her.

" One week!! No...No…" she retorted.

" I will get bored…" she pouted her lips.

" No…" he said in a serious tone.

" Please...please…." She requested, cupping his face.

" If you take proper rest and take proper diet, you can join in work after four days…" he said.

" Fine then…" she agreed and lay on the bed as she was feeling exhausted. Meanwhile, Adrian changed his dress and came back to her. He noticed her sleeping. He covered her with a quilt and sat next to her. He was looking at the tired face and caressed her hair gently. He prayed to God to have a peaceful and happy life like others. While sitting beside her, he also slept leaning on the headboard. 

He doesn\'t have an idea that a big problem is waiting for him to face which might change his entire life. 

…..

" Momma…" 

Sam entered the room calling his mother. But both Adrian and Katherine were sleeping. With Sam\'s voice, Adrian opened his eyes and looked at Sam.

" shhh...Mommy is not feeling well. Let her take some rest. Better not to disturb her sleep. Let\'s go out and play…" Adrian said and took Sam out of their bedroom. They both left for Sam\'s room to play. 

 …..

Katherine opened her eyes and saw darkness in her room. She stood up from the bed and slowly walked to the bathroom to empty her bladder. After completing her work, she started walking towards her bed. She was shivering due to the cold weather and was feeling dizzy due to weakness.

….

Just in time, one of the maids noticed her condition as she came to the room to give hot soup. She noticed Kathie\'s condition and helped her to sit on the bed. 

" Madam...Are you okay? " the maid asked.

" Hmmm...fine….Thank you…." She replied and leaned back on the headboard.

" Madam….I will inform your condition to the Master…" she quickly ran out of the bedroom.

…..

Maria noticed the maid descending the stairs hurriedly and inquired, " What happened? ". The maid narrated what happened in Adrian\'s bedroom. 

" Okay...I will check her…" Maria said and slowly ascended the stairs. When she went inside, she found Katherine sitting, leaning on the bed. 

" Kathie. You are looking so weak. Shall we go to the hospital! " Maria asked her.

" Mom… I am in monthly periods and also have a fever. Maybe that is the reason, I am feeling so weak …" she explained. She patted her hair and advised her to take a proper diet to recover soon. Then she asked her, " Where is my stupid son? "

Just at the same time, Adrian and Sam entered the room. " Hi mommy .." Saying Sam ran towards the bed but Maria stopped him. " Mommy is having the flu and fever. You stay away from her or else your health will also get affected " 

" But...Granny. I want to play with Mommy…" he pouted his lips. Maria smiled and said, " I will play. Let\'s go to my room". Then she held Sam\'s hand and looked at her son, " take care of Kathie. Don\'t leave her alone…" she instructed and left the room with Sam.

 …

Adrian sat beside her caressing her hands taking into his hands. She leaned on his shoulders and said, " Ad.. I want to ask you something…" hesitantly.

" Hmmm….tell me...what! " He asked

" Do you have any problem, if I ask Ruby to stay with us? I mean … Martin is also staying in another city now. So…." She asked.

" This is our home, Buttercup. You have every right to decide who should stay here. You do not need to take my permission" he replied.

" Okay ..then I ask Ruby to stay with us, \'\' she said. He smiled and then continued, " Ruby and Steven are returning tonight. And also we got a business offer from a Japanese company to start a new plant in their country. The deal was good so I agreed to it " 

" Wow...it\'s good news then…" she raised her head from his shoulders.

" Yes...Love .." he smiled then pulled closer to him. She placed her head on his chest still in the sitting position. Slowly he

Caressing her soft silky hair with his palms.

" Love...Do you want to eat? " He asked.

After thinking for a while, she replied, " Anything light .."

" Okay….I will bring to light food " he said and went outside the room. After ordering the maid to prepare soup and a sandwich, he returned to the room. 

" Love...I was so scared when I found you in Duke\'s home. I thought that I failed to protect you. From now on don\'t go alone anywhere …" he informed.

" Hmmm…." She nodded her head.

.,..

A few minutes later, the maid brought light snacks and soup for Katherine. " Keep it on the nightstand. I will feed my wife with my hands…."Adrian told her.

The maid nodded her head and left the room, closing the door behind her. He sat opposite to her on the bed, holding a plate in his hand. He took a bit of bread in his hand and placed it before her mouth. 

" Love...open your mouth…" he said.

She ate bread and had soup while he fed him. After she completed her eating, he noticed wetness in her eyes. He was worried as if she was not feeling well again. " Baby. ..are you okay? " He asked, cupping her face.

" I am fine. I wished to eat food by your hands when I was carrying Sam in my womb. I missed you so much, especially at that time …" saying she hugged him tightly.

"We can\'t change the past. But I promise you, when you are pregnant with my child again, I will feed you every day " he informed and kissed on the top of her head.

She chuckled at his words and then, " I want to give so many babies to you…"

" You...naughty woman….sleep now...don\'t divert my innocent mind…" he replied and made her sleep on his chest.

 ….

One week completed….

Katherine\'s health was improved in one week. Adrian strictly didn\'t allow her to come to the company to work. Steven and Ruby were returned to the city and Ruby started living in Katherine\'s home.

The reconstruction of the manufacturing unit was started. And also they get accidental insurance for the company. 

( Katherine cleverly did insurance for the company. After that, she claimed insurance for the fire accident and got the payment from the insurance company. Her plan saved Adrian\'s company from loss. And again they started designing the car…)

They thought to celebrate as they got a Japanese contract to open a new branch in their country but due to Katherine\'s health reasons. He postponed it.

.....

Adrian noticed there was some problem between them after they returned from the business trip. They used to talk less and she used to avoid him. He didn\'t understand what happened when they went on the business trip. He was not so close to them personally to talk with Ruby or Steven. 

….

When they were working in the company, he informed Katherine what he observed between Ruby and Steven.

She listened to his words and said, " I will talk with Ruby tonight…"

….

When they reached home after work, she freshen up and went to the guest room. She saw Ruby was sleeping on her stomach, placing her head on the pillow.

" Ruby…."

She rolled over the bed and noticed Kathie in the bedroom. She sat on the bed and said with a smile, " Hi ...how was your day? "

" Fine. What about you? " Katherine asked.

" Good " she replied.

" Is everything good between you and Steven? " She asked her, sitting beside her.

" What do you mean? I don\'t understand..." Ruby asked nervously and lowered her head.
