Chapter 273 - Is The News True?

Katherine heard the sound of footsteps. She and Lyra turned their heads toward the direction. Lyra was startled to see Emily with Adrian and started worrying about Adrian and Katherine's relationship.

" Oh my God! How can anyone bring your ex-fiance to the mansion! That means whatever we heard in the news was true! " Lyra exclaimed in surprise. She was looking at Emily with hatred.

" Kathie…Why are you silent! " Lyra questioned.

Katherine glared at Lyra, " Go to your home" she informed her. She shut her mouth with one sentence.

" From today, Emily will stay with us…" Adrian informed his wife with a stern face. Katherine looked at Emily and agreed with him by nodding her head.

" Is everything alright! " Katherine asked Emily. She lowered her head and said, " I fought with my father. I have no place to stay here in this city. So, I asked Adrian to pick me "

" It is okay, Emily. You can stay here for as many days as you want. I respect you for whatever you did for us," she said.

Emily smiled at her and said, " Thank you…" Then Katherine instructed the head maid to arrange the guest room for Emily's stay. The head maid lowered her head and nodded her head.

Lyra, who heard the whole conversation, made her upset. From her childhood, she liked Katherine like a sister. As she saw Adrian bring another woman, she worried for Katherine. Lyra could see anything more happening.

" Bye, Katherine. ." she informed her and left the place with a sad face.

….

Katherine instructed the head maid to prepare food for three people from now on. One maid took Emily to the room on the same floor as Adrian and Katherine's bedroom. Then Katherine went to their bedroom without talking with Adrian.

Adrian noticed her face, followed her silently to their bedroom, and closed the door behind him. He found her sitting on the edge of the bed, hanging her legs down.

" Kathie…"

Calling her name, he moved towards her. He stood close to her but she ignored his presence.

" Don't you want Emily to stay with us in this Mansion! " he questioned her, cupping her face. She raised her head and stared at him.

" So…you think I believe in that news but not in you! " she asked him back. She placed her palms on his knuckles which were already on both sides of her face.

"Ad, I trust you more than anything in this world.. " she said while tears streaming down her eyes. He felt so happy to hear her words and felt content. He leaned closer and kissed her forehead.

" Then why are you upset? " he asked her.

" I found you missing when I was awake. You could have left me some messages or could have attended my calls. You don't know how worried I was thinking of you, " she whined.

Immediately, he embraced her to his chest and eat a hamburger to make her worried. " I won't repeat this mistake. I hurriedly left as Emily was crying over the call " he said.

" Don't go anywhere without informing me from now on, " she said, still holding him.

" Sorry buttercup. I will inform you before going to any other place, " he assured her. On seeing her condition, he cursed himself to leave her without informing her. He decided in his mind to don't repeat the same mistake. He doesn't want to take risks that upset her or her health.

Once she calmed down, he stepped back and tilted her face to him. " Do you eat anything after you wake up! " He questioned, wiping her tears with both of his thumbs. She nodded her head straight.

" Good..." he kissed her nose that turned red because of crying. While he was kissing her, she whispered, " I love you, Adrian.

" I love you too. I feel so happy to hear that," he answered. He felt so happy and content like an overused oil lamp that got refilled with oil. Her trust and love for him made him strong. He thought that he could do anything if his loving and caring wife was with him. He got more confident that he will put an end to Grayson in a short time.

" Today, I will prepare a special dish for my pregnant wife," he said with a radiant smile on his lips.

He was looking at her eyes as she was still sad. He could feel her eyes were staring at him. He could feel that the trust and love she gave to him so naturally was something he never felt before. As she responded to his words, " Are you still upset with him?" he asked.

" No. I am thinking about Emily and his father's relationship. For us, She fought with her father. I am feeling sad for her" she replied. He was surprised to know how his wife was thinking for others even though they were in great trouble.

" Everything will be fine soon "he assured. Then he asked her what she wanted him to prepare for dinner. " I want to eat hamburger and salad with fresh fruit juice" she replied.

" Okay, my highness. I will prepare in one hour " he said, bowing his head. She laughed, the way he replied dramatically. He kissed his cheeks and said, " Stop being cheesy. I will join you in helping "

" No...no...I will do it without anyone's help. Just stay in the room and take some rest" he informed and went to change his dress. After a while, he went to the kitchen. He opened the cupboard and then asked the maid to take out the ingredients to cook. Once the maid gave him all the ingredients, he asked to leave the kitchen so that he could do his work.

As soon as the maid left, he started chopping veggies for a salad. He was so excited that his wife will be back to eat a delicious dinner which he prepared with his hands after a long time. Then he prepared a few pancakes and hamburgers. He was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.. He was just making the salad when he heard her voice from far away.
