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

Chapter 113 - Shopping

After the small photoshoot, Adrian asked the lawyer to take care of the marriage certificate. 

He didn't take away his hands around her waist even after the completion of the photoshoot. He walked towards the car and started walking towards the car to return to Thomas' home.

" Adrian...I need to talk with you " Emily stopped him.

" Is it urgent! " he asked Emily, looking at her face.

" I need your help," she said.

Emily looked at Katherine and said, " I want you both to hide about your marriage for a few days.. "

" What do you mean by it? I didn't get you? " Adrian asked her.

"Last night, my father and I argued about our engagement. And also about the article about you and Katherine in the newspaper. " Emily explained.

" Now she is my wife. I couldn't care about it. " Adrian declared.

" What article? '' Katherine asked as she is unaware of it.

" Nothing. ." Adrian cut off the topic as he doesn't want to know about it and gets hurt by knowing it.

He might be angry at her but he cares for her dignity and her respect. 

" We both knew that we never had feelings for each other. And also I knew that you have someone in your heart. So we can't drag this topic " he reasoned.

" Please Adrian, if my father knew the truth then he again starts searching for an alliance. Try to understand " she pleaded.

Adrian looked at her and said, " We cannot hide the truth for a long time"

Then he continued looking at Emily " And more importantly, When we know that the person whom you loved will never come back then you should move on in your life"

" Then why didn't you move on in your life when Katherine left you? Why do you drink every night thinking of her? Why? " Emily questioned him back. 

Adrian had no answer to her question. He remained silent.

" Emily, I can understand your situation. I will hide our relationship from all " Katherine promised her.

Adrian glared at her and shouted at her, " So you are feeling ashamed to tell everyone as my wife. Aren't you? "

" It's not like that. I wanted to help Emily, " Katherine replied.

" Don't lie. First, you don't like to marry me and now you don't like someone to know you as my wife. " He said in a serious tone.

" Whatever you think in your mind. Remember I have all the rights over you. From now on, don't make your own decisions. " He warned, looking at her angrily.

" Adrian...Please stop shouting at her. It was my mistake. I shouldn't ask you both something like that" Emily said in guilt.

Adrian walked away from them seriously.

" I am sorry. Because of me...all this happened.." Emily apologized to Katherine.

" It's okay. He has every right to be angry at me because I hurt him so much. " She replied and both walked after Adrian.

Finally, they returned to Thomas' house and had their lunch with everyone.

Thomas informed everyone that the wedding will take place far from the city near the old church on the day after tomorrow morning. Already the preparations have started. They have to go reach the place by tomorrow evening. 

…..

" Sam...shall we go home? " Maria asked his grandson.

" What about Mommy?" Sam asked, looking at his mother.

" She will be with us by tomorrow evening. She will be busy shopping with Aunt Emily. " She answered him.

Maria ordered Adrian to give them his credit card for wedding shopping. Adrian handed his credit card and whispered, " Don't take shoulder-off dresses from now on"

She raised her head and looked at him quizzically. 

" Let's go...Adrian… We should also go to the mall" Maria said, holding Sam's hand.

Katherine's face turned pale and felt bad looking at the leaving figure of Sam.

 Sam turned his face and waved his hand to his mom and said, " Bye...Mumma"

Adrian and Maria also looked at Katherine who was standing far from them. Maria understood her state and assured her that she will take care of him very well.

" Let her experience the distance of a child for one day then only she will understand what was going on in my heart," Adrian said and left the place, picking Sam in his arms.

Katherine felt hurt by his venomous words and ran inside the room. She could not control herself and started crying.

" Kathie...stop crying. You already knew he is angry at you. By tomorrow we will gather at one place. Just be patient for one day " Emily consoled her.

She wiped her tears and nodded her head.

" Then let's go shopping. We have to buy so many things…" Emily said excitedly.

….

Without delay, Emily and Katherine went to the mall to buy a wedding dress and other accessories. She took her to the famous wedding designer shop. They choose three displayed wedding outfits in their mall. The designer asked Katherine to have a try on her body for any alterations according to her body size.

Finally, they selected the wedding gown in two hours. Then Emily dragged her to the beauty salon to make her look more beautiful on the wedding day even though Katherine protested. Emily convinced her that the wedding will be the most memorable day in everyone's life. She asked her to forget about the past and Adrian's angry. 

After that, they went to buy other bridal accessories for the wedding.

….

On the other hand, Adrian went shopping with his mother and his son. He bought dresses for Sam and Maria. His mother selected a wedding suit for him. Apart from wedding shopping, Adrian bought many electrical toys for him. They went to a restaurant and had their dinner. 

By the time they reached the Villa from shopping, Sam slept in the car itself. Adrian carried him to his bedroom and laid on the bed. 

Just in time, his mobile started ringing. He looked at the display name on the screen. 

" My long-lost love…"

Immediately he attended the call not to disturb Sam's sleep. 

" Is Sam sleeping? " She asked him.

" Yes. He is tired of shopping. Don't worry about him. I can take care of him. " He replied.

" I called you to inform you that he has a habit of drinking milk before sleep. If he woke up, make him drink a glass of milk " she said.

" Okay. " He said.

" Good night, Adrian…" She greeted him.

" Have a sleepless night without my son " he replied and disconnected the call.
