Bella’s POV: Lucas was crying in my arms until he fell asleep.
gently put him on the bed and looked at the wet tears on his cheeks. I felt very upset. Although I wouldn‘t listen to Lucas and cancel the wedding with Klein, what he said left a deep impression on me. That night, I suddenly received a call from Herbert “Lucas has been at your place for two days. I want to bring him back for two days.” This was Herbert‘s voice. Although I couldn‘t bear to part with Lucas, he did not only belong to me after all. I said, “I’ll send him there.”
“No, it‘s not convenient for you to bring him over when Lucky is with you. I‘ll pick him up.” said Herbert.
“Okay,” I said. Then, just as I was about to hang up the phone, Herbert said eagerly, “Wait, I... want to see Lucky. Is that okay?” Lucky was already one year old, and she had never seen her father. I was not surprised that he made such a request. But I still felt very sad when I thought that he forced me to give birth to Lucky in advance. I looked at Lucas, who was in my arms. If I didn‘t do that, I might not be able to see Lucas now, right? I didn‘t have the right to strip the child of her father‘s love. The next moment, I said on the phone, “In half an hour, come to the park next to my place. I’ll take both Lucas and Lucky down with me by then.” “Okay.” Herbert‘s tone was excited. “Goodbye,” I said and hung up the phone. Although I still had hatred for Herbert, of course, I didn‘t hate him as much as before. After all, he had suffered a lot. Moreover, he had cured Luas and he had also taught Lucas so well. I didn‘t hate him anymore. It didn‘t mean that I could forgive everything he had done to me. He did not have the right to decide everything. I didn‘t agree with his actions. Half an hour later, I was holding Lucas and Jane was pushing the baby car. Lucky was sitting in the baby car and the four of us came to the park near my place. From afar, I saw a black figure waiting under a tree full of yellow leaves. Lucas immediately broke free from my hand as soon as he saw Herbert. He ran to Herbert and shouted, “Daddy, Daddy!” As soon as he saw Lucas, Herbert took a few steps forward, picked Lucas up, spun him quickly in the air, and Lucas shouted happily. I could see that their relationship was very good. Lucas was very dependent on him, and he also
loved Lucas very much. I took the baby car from Jane and walked toward the father and son step by step. It was undeniable that Herbert‘s face had changed a lot in the past two years. The person who was in high spirits had restrained himself a lot, becoming more calm, mature, and charming. He had a kind of attraction that was difficult to describe with words, which would make it difficult for women to control themselves. But I knew that if I got close to him, I would get hurt again, so I tried my best to control my emotions. In the past two days, I had repeatedly told myself in my heart, ‘The person I want to marry is Klein. Even if Herbert is the father of my two children, he can‘t change the fact. The person who will accompany me to the end of my life is Klein.” When he saw me and Lucky, he put Lucas on the ground, and then took Lucas‘s hand and walked over to us. Herbert glanced at me first, and then his eyes and mind were all focused on Lucky, who was in the baby‘s car. Lucky wore a pink thin down jacket and there was a rabbit–shaped hat on her head. Her pair of big eyes were looking around and she was ignorant of what was going on.
Looking at her, Herbert seemed a little excited. He looked up at me and asked, “Can I carry her?”
“Of course.” I nodded.
I carried Lucky out of the baby car, walked to Herbert, and gently handed the child to him. Herbert carefully held her in his arms. Because one of his arms had just been injured, his posture was very stiff, for fear that he would make her fall or uncomfortable. A cute voice came out of Lucky‘s mouth. Herbert put his cheek on her chubby little face. At that moment, I saw the excitement in Herbert‘s eyes, as well as a deep fatherly love for his daughter.
This kind of instinctive love could not be faked.
Lucky let out a burst of laughter. When I looked up, I saw Herbert holding Lucky and spinning her in the air. Lucky was still young and she was not afraid at all. She only knew that it was very exciting. One of Herbert‘s arms was still bandaged. I was a little worried and I took a step forward but my hands froze in the air. I was afraid that Herbert would accidentally make Lucky fall, but I couldn‘t bear to stop him. After all, Lucky was really happy at the moment. At this time, Lucas stepped forward, raised his hands, and motioned for Herbert to stop “Daddy. daddy.” Herbert held Lucky in his arms, looked down at Lucas, and said, “Do you want me to turn you around as well?”
