The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor By LiLhyz Chapter 151: Complete Isolation

Shantelle cried in the bathroom as she took a shower. After she checked herself in the mirror, her heart felt heavy.

Evan walked in and said, “Wifey, we already talked about this.”

The man wiped the tears on her cheeks and said, “Wash your face, Wifey.”

Shantelle nodded, and as she cleaned her face again, Evan stood behind her. When she turned to Evan, he held her face and said, “My wife, smile for Lucas. Make him feel like this is just a walk in the park. Then, you might want to put on a little makeup. He will know that you cried.”

She nodded and spent a few more minutes in the bathroom.

After Shantelle changed her clothes, she went to where Evan and Lucas were.

In the living room of their home, Lucas kissed Marcus’ cheek as Mrs. Shaw held the baby. Lucas said, “I’m going to miss you, Marcus. Thank you for your blood. I love you.” 1

Evan held Amelia, and Lucas did the same, pecking his sibling. He said,” I’m going to miss you too, baby Amelia. I love you.” i

At that point, all the adults were already wearing masks, including Shantelle and Evan. Wendell stretched his arms for Lucas, saying, “And hug your uncle! I’ll miss you, buddy, but don’t worry. We made your new home as fun as possible.”

Milan, who had stayed overnight at the couple’s home, also hugged Lucas. After letting go, Lucas said, “Aunt Milan, advance happy birthday. I have a gift for you later, but I won’t be there when you open it.”

“We will call you, buddy. At least you can see when your aunt opens the gift, ” Wendell said with a wink, and Lucas’ nodded.

All of Lucas’ grandparents also arrived, but before offering the boy a hug, they changed clothes and disinfected, just to ensure Lucas won’t get any more infection. After putting on their own masks, the grandparents alternately hugged Lucas and pecked his head. It was the safest place to kiss him. Lucas was no longer allowed a peck on the cheek.

Karise and Keith also came; just like Lucas’ grandparents, they had to change, disinfect, and wear masks to hold Lucas. Sean was the last to arrive, and he gave Lucas a warm hug. Sean said, “I’m going to give you a gift every week.”

“I’m going to give you a gift every week too,” Keith claimed.

“And me too!” Clara added, and the rest followed.

Lucas laughed and replied, “Okay, let’s schedule it. Mondays will be Uncle Wendell, Tuesdays will be Uncle Keith, Wednesdays will be Uncle Sean…”
