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

Chapter 102 - Meeting Thomas

He threw all the things in frustration.

She had left him without a single word and also her mobile was switched off. He was mad at her as it was not the first time she left him. She did the same thing six years ago. But this time, he doesn't want her to leave him. He wanted to know what was going on in her mind. He had been thinking for days about what he was going to do to her. He was going to make her stay with him. He was going to make her his wife. He was going to make her stay with him for the rest of her life.

He was going to marry her. He was going to make her stay with him by hook or by crook.

He ran out of his Villa taking his car keys in hurry. He drove to her home. But he was late, she left her house with her friend Martin and her son, Sam. He was furious. He was upset and didn't know what to do. He didn't even know where to go to find her. He tried to call her mobile but couldn't get the connection.

He doesn't know whom to contact to get the information. He was left with no choice but to wait for her.

He sat at her doorstep waiting for her for two hours. 

" Why did you leave me again ? What is my mistake?" He questioned her in his mind.

He then decided to go back to his home as he understood that she willingly left him. 

As soon as he stepped into his Villa, his mother walked towards him anxiously.

" Have you met her?" Maria asked him.

 " What do you talk about with her?" Adrian shouted at his mother for the first time in his life.

" I told her about your marriage with Emily. And also told her to disturb your life." Maria replied.

" What do you mean? You told her to not disturb my life?" Adrian asked her.

" Yes, I did. You are going to marry Emily. So I told her that she would be an obstacle in your life" she explained to him.

" Mom....I clearly told you last night that I will talk with you in the morning. Why didn't I wait till I woke up in the morning.? Where shall I search for Katherine now? Again she left him" he said in broken state.

" I was just trying to help you," she said.

" No!" Adrian shouted at her.

"You don't need to help me. If you truly cared for me then you would have tried to know the reason why she left him six years back. But you accused her without knowing the truth . Instead you threw her out of our house" he yelled.

Maria was hurt by Adrian's words. Since she gave birth to him she only wanted his son's happiness. She lived for him and brought up after her husband's death. She felt bad that he misunderstood her love for him. 

" Adrian ....as your mom I wanted you to be happy. I thought your happiness is with Emily so I asked Katherine to get out of your life. If you still think Katherine is your happiness then I will help in finding her" Maria said emotionally.

Then she continued, " You hurt me so much today. Is this you didn't understand my love for you? " While crying.

Then Adrian realised that he hurt his mother in anger. He looked at his mother with shame and walked towards her. 

"Sorry mom...I didn't mean to insult your love for me." He said, holding her hands.

" If you want to marry Katherine then I will accept your decision. But don't expect me to accept her as my daughter in law" she said firmly.

She was so angry at her as Adrian suffered so much when she left him a few years back. She didn't want to see him suffer anymore. She was not going to let him fall into any kind of trouble. She was going to help Adrian to find Katherine. 

" Remember my words. . I want your happiness. " She informed him and left from that place

Adrian walked into the gym room. He has a habit of doing workouts to make mind peaceful. He laid on the bench press and started lifting dumbbells with the help of a barbell. While doing the workouts, he was remembering her words which she had spoken the previous night. Accidentally he lost the balance of the barbell as his thinking was in somewhere. The weight of the dumbbells stressed on his left hand. 

With the loud noise from the gym room, Mrs. Wilson and the maid from the kitchen ran into the gym room. Maria was panicked to see Adrian struggling to put away the weight but he successfully kept it aside.

As Maria worked as a nurse, she ran towards him and checked his muscles at his shoulders and arms. She examined his hands and noticed a slight swelling at his arms.

" Let's go to hospital…" she ordered him.

" It's ok. Pain will subside. Don't worry, " he replied.

" Shut up .. " she shouted and instructed the driver to get the car.

...

…..

Martin and Katherine reached his friend's apartment. Before they reached, his friend's driver was waiting for them to give him the house keys. 

Martin thanked the driver and took the elevator. The apartment was on the 15th floor. They unlocked the door and entered. All the house was fully furnished with all amenities.

" Wow….this house is so beautiful" little Sam was excited and running here and there laughing.

Katherine smiled weakly at him and sat on the sofa in the hallway. 

" Now...tell me. How do you meet Adrian? When do you meet him? " Martin was shooting the question.

" He is my new CEO and I am currently working as his assistant. " She answered in a low voice.

" That means….the person who came to meet you ….!!!" Martin exclaimed.

She nodded her head with guilt as she hid it from him. Then she explained everything that had been happening for a few days.

" How many days will you run away from him? How many days do you hide about Sam?" He questioned her.

" I don't know," she replied, lowering her head.

…..

" Meet him and tell the truth. He will understand your situation. But if he came to know the truth by himself, you would have to face more problems. Just think once…" he suggested.

…..

" Okay. I will think about your suggestion…" she agreed.

" Good. "

" I will be the happiest person if you both sort out your problem with discussion, " he said.

" Kathie…."

" I know it is not the time to discuss but I want to inform you of one important matter. " He said hesitantly.

Then he continued, " I have to go to California to meet our publishers. It would be probably for one week to ten days" 

She smiled and nodded her head.

" Hope you will think in these ten days and make a right decision…" he said hopefully.

"Sure. I will think about it" she said.

" No need to worry about the safety of you and Sam because this apartment belongs to Thomas. In any emergency he will help you " He said. 

Katherine stood up instantly when he took Thomas' name. 

She was shocked to hear that his friend is Thomas. 

" Relax. Thomas doesn't reveal about us to Adrian. If he would have helped Adrian then he would have helped him a long time back. " Martin reasoned.

But Katherine was feeling nervous and restless.

" Kathie...don't be worried. Everything will be alright " he patted her shoulder.

" I am so scared …." She cried, hugging him.

" Shh calm down. Take some rest. Meanwhile I will bring groceries for one week. I have to catch a flight this evening, " he said.

" Uncle Martin….I will also come to you. Please take me with you. " Little Sam asked, coming from the other room.

" Let's go," Martin said and took Sam with him.

As they both went out, Katherine walked to one of the bedrooms and stood at the glass wall watching the busy roads. She lost in her thoughts thinking about Adrian, what he was doing at this time.

...

...

The car stopped at the hospital, both Adrian and Maria got down from the hospital.

" Mom….there was slight swelling. Why are you making it a big issue? " Adrian asked her.

" It's not a slight swelling, you stupid boy. I am your mother and I know what to do. No need to tell me" Maria yelled at him.

They walked inside the hospital and took the appointment of the doctor. The receptionist asked to wait for a few minutes as the doctor was checking the patient. 

After a while, the patient came out of the doctor's cabin, and the receptionist informed Maria to visit the doctor.. As soon as they entered the doctor's cabin, Adrian was amused to see Thomas is the doctor who he came for checkup.
