The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor

Chapter 82: William’s Support

“This is where your mommy used to cook, “Evan described, taking Lucas to the

kitchen. “Your mommy always loved putting things in order.”

Walking back into the living room, Evan

pointed to the furniture. “Your mommy bought these.”

Evan was giving Lucas a tour of the entire villa. Shantelle followed behind them, smiling and giggling whenever her son

made a silly remark.

Taking Lucas to the main bedroom, Evan revealed, “This is Mommy and Daddy’s room. Wanna look around?”

“Uhuh!” Lucas exclaimed. The first thing

he saw was their wedding portrait hanging on the wall. “Wow! Is that

Mommy? She looks so pretty!”

“The room is nice, daddy! It’s so big!”

Lucas added.

“It is,” Evan confirmed. “Now, let me

take you to your room.”

“My room? But I want to stay with you,’ Lucas begged. “You did not put me to bed for days!” Lucas hugged Evan, asking, Please, daddy. Please. Can I sleep next to you? I miss you. Can I stay here with you and Mommy?”

The plan was to have more of Shantelle, but that would not happen if Lucas slept in the same bed with them. But how can he ever deny his son? He owed him so many years of his time and attention.

Behind the door, Shantelle was giggling at him. She raised both her hands, suggesting how it was all his decision to make. Thus, he surrendered to Lucas, saying, “Alright, buddy. We will all stay in the main room.”

“Yey! Yey!” Lucas jumped for joy. He then

revealed, “I remember my classmate in Warlington telling me that when he was

little, he used to stay with his mommy and daddy at night, but I never did, so I wanted to try it!”

Lucas’ words made Shantelle choke on

her spew. Her face paled, knowing that it was her fault, but thankfully, Evan was quick to divert the topic. When he saw Shantelle’s reaction, he immediately

carried Lucas into his arms, saying, Let’s do everything you wanna do. What

else do you want to do with your mommy and daddy?”

”

“I want to do hand painting with Mommy

and Daddy! I want to swim with Mommy

and Daddy! I want to go to an amusement park with Mommy and Daddy.” Lucas went on and on, even repeating some of the things they had already done. The last thing he requested, however, made Evan

laugh. The young man said, “I want to

take care of my little brother with

Mommy and Daddy!”

At night, Lucas slept in between his parents. He turned from side to side, repeatedly hugging Evan and Shantelle. He kept saying, “I love you, Mommy. I love you, Daddy.”
