Chapter 251 - Proud To Be Loved By Her

" Oh...I thought there was some problem in the company…" she said.

" I was just worried…" her words cut off in the middle by him and said, " If you complete your cross-questioning me like a criminal. I have some work…" 

" Ad...why are you behaving rudely with me! Please don't believe those videos. Those are fake. If you want me to swear at our son, I will. I have never been intimate with another man other than you…" she said in a pleading tone.

He turned away from her while fisting his hand. He closed his eyes and pursed his lips tightly. He wanted to die when he heard her desperate voice to make him believe her love for him. He wanted to embrace her and shouted that he would never doubt her fidelity. He respects and adores her love for him. 

" Ad…" she placed her palm on his shoulder. His body stiffened with her touch. He felt guilty to hurt her but he had to choose this path to end the game of Grayson.

" Kathie….I am already upset with that video. Please...don't talk about it…" he said in a serious tone. He didn't dare to look at her face. He was feeling ashamed to treat her rudely.

" Better you spend your time with Sam as we are leaving tomorrow.." He suggested. She stayed for a few seconds to talk with him but he was still showing his back, she left with a hurtful face.

…..

Just in time, Steven walked opposite Katherine. He noticed Kathie's pale face but she was not in a condition to notice Steven's presence. She walked away quietly with a gloomy face. Then he looked at Adrian who lowered his head.

" Adrian…" 

While calling his name, Steven approached Adrian. " I think you should stop hurting her like this. Better you should open your heart with her. Either you both are happy like this. Please…." Steven said.

" Do you think...she will allow me to go alone to her place? No…" Adrian said. 

"At least...tell her the truth, what is the reason behind your behaviour" Steven suggested.

" No...if she knows it would be a problem in our plan. She loves me crazily. She doesn't care about her father's will, her property, or her company. That was the reason she left everything behind only to save me and my son. Let her think whatever she wants. I already decided to put an end to Grayson…" Adrian said with determination.

" I don't leave that bastard who harassed my wife all these years and tried to kill my son. I will kill him with my bare hands…" he added.

" But it is hard to see Kathie in that state…" Steven said.

" Let it be...If anything happens to me in this fight, she can forget me easily, and also she could move on in her life " Adrian informed him. " Don't talk rubbish. I am there to support you. If Ruby is not pregnant, I could have come with you there…" Steven told him.

" No...no...you should be here only. As I have so much trust in you that I am leaning my son and my mother with you…" Adrian said.

" I promise you that I will take care of them. Don't worry…" Steven assured Adrian.

" Thanks for your support…" Adrian said.

" Shall I ask you one question! " Steven asked him, looking at his face.

" Can you really see her depressed and broken! Just in one day, she is in this condition. Tell me what if it goes more days! " he asked Adrian.

" Steven… I know it would be hard but I have no other way. I can't run away from the problems and hide in your country permanently. I want to keep a full stop on this issue. Already, Kathie is tired of running away from the problems with Grayson. It's time to stand and chase away all problems especially before my son opens his eyes. My Sam always says that I am his HERO. Even if I die while protecting them, let me...Remain as HERO DAD…" He answered.

" Now I clearly understood why Katherine left everything behind her and led a single life all these years…" Steven expressed his view on their relationship.

Adrian gave a weak smile and said, " Not only that I too cannot accept any other woman in my heart even though she left me" 

" After knowing the truth, the respect and adoration for her doubled in my heart. I am being proud to be loved by her. I am lucky to have her as my wife, " he said proudly.

" Of course….Mr. Wilson…" Steven said, patting his shoulder.

Later, they both talked about the plan after reaching Katherine's Mansion and her company. They discussed the plan for nearly one hour. Then they walked together inside the Mansion. 

As soon as they stepped inside, they noticed Ruby sitting in the hallway. " Where were you? I was searching for you in the Mansion?" in a serious face, looking at Steven.

Steven gulped his throat as he was scared of her mood swing due to pregnancy hormones. " Better to handle you, pregnant girlfriend, as you shift her room without her permission " Adrian whispered in Steven's ear.

" I am dead…" he muttered and slowly walked towards Ruby whereas Adrian went to check Sam and Katherine.

" Baby….We were just talking about their journey arrangements…" Steven replied while placing his hands around her shoulder.

" Oh… is it! " Ruby said sarcastically.

" Baby...do you have fruit juice! " he asked, changing the topic cleverly. She pushed away his hand, " What a caring boyfriend you are! That's why you changed my room without my concern. Moreover you disclose the truth about my pregnancy to Aunt Maria without my concern " she mocked.

" Love...let me explain…" he pleaded.

" Don't touch me till you marry me…" she shouted. Then she continued, " I would have taken this decision a very long. I would have not stood as a sinner in front of Aunt Maria " 

" Come on...Ruby. Take it easy. We can't hide it any longer as Aunt Maria will stay with us, " Steven said casually. 

She glared at him and shouted, " Don't talk to me.. I am so angry at you" She didn't care even if there were the maids in the Mansion.
