Their Bundle Of Joy novel Chapter 43

Aiden picked up the phone and took a look at Isabel and then walked in big strides to the window. With a swipe of the finger, he answered Stanley’s call, “Speak.”

He uttered one syllable and his eyes looked outside at the thousands of lights outside.

The night has its gentleness.

“Master Howard, whose hair are these?” Stanley was not anxious to say the results and it was Aiden who engaged him to do the tests.

“Don’t you want the hospital to continue operating?” He snapped back at Stanley’s nosiness.

“Don’t tell me it’s Master Howard and another child’s?”

“Stop the nonsense, what’s the results?” Aiden pushed him for an answer. The room’s lights were on his back and it was surreal like out of science fiction, everything wasn’t real.

“Okay, let me tell you. The test results are that these are related as father and son. Master Howard, is that child Daniel?” Stanley continued to ask.

Aiden was stunned for a minute and then hung up the call and gently lowered his phone.

His slim body continued to stand by the window, quietly looking out at the night scenery for five seconds. Thereafter he turned and walked back to the table and sat down.

“Aiden, who called? Why are you upset?” Elliot asked out of curiosity.

Samuel poured the glass full of XO and said, “It must be Stanley, right?”

“Eat,” Aiden said calmly and drank a mouthful. From then on, he didn’t serve anything onto Isabel’s plate.

Isabel didn’t know when Aiden left. After she came out of the bathroom, she was pulled aside by Lara, “Isabel, Elliot really announced on line about our engagement, heh heh, thanks!”

“Where is he?”

“he asked me to send you home. He had already left.”

“He already left?” Isabel was stunned, then she realized that not only Elliot had left, but all the men in that private room had also left and only Lara and she remained.

Isabel went to pick Daniel from the film set and went back to the apartment. She took a shower and slept.

The next morning, Isabel was awakened by Daniel. She changed and dashed out of the apartment. It was the weekend and the campus grounds of T University was quiet, all were sleeping in.

“Mommy, can we eat at Royal restaurant again?” Daniel suggested as they walked.

“Okay.” Isabel touched her bag and she brought the VIP card of the Royal restaurant. That was given to her by Aiden. As long as it was from him, she kept them preciously with her.

Although she felt uncomfortable spending Aiden’s money, she couldn’t refuse Daniel.

They took public transport and arrived at the Royal restaurant.

The waitress looked at Isabel and Daniel and welcomed them but she felt that something wasn’t right.

“Miss White, are you a party of two or…”

“Two.”

“Then… then is it the private room or the main hall?”
