Chapter 54: William’s Test

“Dad, please,” Shantelle begged. “I’m not doing this for me. I swear. I don’t plan to be involved with Evan in that way. This is

all for Lucas.”

The day finally came for Shantelle to have that talk with her parents. After arriving

from their long vacation, Lucas spilled

the beans before Shantelle could inform

Eleanor and William Scott about the

Thompsons.

Immediately, William was doubtful. He

ordered Shantelle to the study, where

they talked about Evan for over an hour.

“Sweetheart, are you sure about this?

Didn’t you say Evan did not want a child with you?” William sought.

“He – he had a change of heart, Dad. He said he was wrong about asking for a

divorce, and so far, Evan has proven to me he loves and accepts Lucas,” Shantelle explained.

“Really? Sorry about the divorce? Did he

not see how my beautiful princess had looked down on herself because she felt

so unloved?” William recalled the past.

Shanty, I never want to see you in that state again.”

“You are my pride and joy. I want you to keep loving yourself before any man,’ William added, his eyes starting to water. Eleanor had to comfort him as they sat on

the couch.

With her father’s sudden outcry, Shantelle reached for William’s hand, saying, “Dad, I’m not that young girl anymore. I am Doctor Shantelle Scott. I am one of the best chest surgeons out

ever again. Besides, I am not going back to Evan.”

“You say that now, but what about tomorrow?” William pointed out.

“If it comes to that, then let me make my own choice,” Shantelle replied.

“Are you saying -”

“I am not saying anything that involves Evan and me. I want Evan to be part of

Lucas’ life,” she repeated.

“Again, this decision has nothing to do

with me. This is all about Lucas. He loves

Evan, and his father sure loves him. How

can I deny him of that, daddy? Would you ever deny me of your love?” It was

because she threw that line to her father that William eventually yielded.

Eleanor said to her husband, “We were wrong about keeping Lucas from the Thompsons. We both know that, darling. We were simply lying to ourselves, thinking they would not care. We did not
