Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 43

At the other side, Geoffrey who was abandoned by Sabrina found his way to the President’s office, and he saw a man who had an unhappy expression on his face. He let out a sneer without reserve.

“Things do not go your way again?”

The man shot him a glance, but did not reply him.

Geoffrey walked into the room and peeked at the child who was sleeping soundly on the sofa. He gave a pat on the man’s shoulders and said, “Do you need me to help you?”

“I don’t need you to interfere in my affairs.” Kenneth looked at him emotionlessly; obviously his mood was in tatters.

Geoffrey raised the corner of his lips and said lazily, “Without my interference, you still have to make up your mind soon, am I right? Now that she’s playing the role of stepmother perfectly, if you’re still letting things be, soon her soon-to-be-born children will call other man as their dad.”

Although there weren’t concrete evidence about this, the children in her belly was most probably his children too.

Kenneth’s handsome face was getting even more tensed, as if there was a storm brewing underneath the surface.

Strangely, he was not too eager to discover whether the children really belonged to his genetics. He wanted to know what that woman was really thinking. Was she really planning to marry Osmond?

After remaining silent for some time, his distant gaze shifted to the front as he cupped his chins. He said in a low voice, “Other than Osmond, if there’s a guy who is pursuing her, do you think she will accept him?” 

“…”

Geoffrey was stunned temporarily and he stared at him blankly for a few seconds. After sensing something interesting, he asked in astonishment, “Are you going to pursue her?”

Was he going to pursue that woman?

That woman was also his ex-wife.

Kenneth glared at his two excited pupils and couldn’t help but feeling somehow guilty of himself. He squeezed his brows unnaturally besides kicking him and said, “I’m talking about that woman, aren’t you always claiming that you understand women the most?”

He received this kick head on and this made Geoffrey retrieved his cheekiness. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and raised his eye lids while saying coldly, “I only understand woman who’s in love, not a pregnant one. How would I know what’s on her mind? Any woman who’s pregnant like that would be anxious to look for a father figure for the children, let alone the fact that she’s shouldering so much debt. If she is going to go through this alone, the future might not be bright for her. She’s not that stupid.”

Kenneth pressed his lips into a line and suddenly descended into silence.

He came to the conclusion that no matter how he deduce things, Osmond would appear to be the one she would consider the most.

Geoffrey scanned him with questioning eyes for a full minute before averting his gaze on the surroundings. He said with curved lips, “As your brother, I must remind you that this woman is like business opportunity, in a flash they will become other’s belongings. Still, this is your fault too partly, a person who has no respect for himself can’t expect something good to happen to him.”

Before they were divorced nothing was being said, and now when they’re actually apart he was trying his best to get in close proximity within her, this was the definition of having no respect for oneself.

When he was finishing his sentence, before Kenneth could respond, he suddenly came closer and asked with a mysterious smile, “Hey, have you really fallen for her?”

“…”

Kenneth furrowed his eyebrows and stared at his smiling handsome face in disgust. He bellowed, “Get lost!”

He was not sure whether he really liked her, but if the child in her belly was his, he definitely would not allow her to remarry someone else.

The man focused his gaze outside the window, his depthless eyes were swirling with contrasting emotions, and they were cold and icy.
