Chapter 41: Marriage Agreement
Lesly walked in front. As soon as she appeared, she met Gavin’s eyes, which almost scared her to death. She froze immediately.
"Mom... "
"Shh!" Lesly quickly turned back and covered Lucca’s mouth. She pointed at the fire exit with her eyes and mouthed, "Hide."
Lucca had always been a smart child. He immediately understood what Lesly meant as he went to hid in the fire exit.
"Lesly." Gavin stood up and walked over. "What are you doing here?"
Seeing that Lucca had hid properly, Lesly adjusted her expression and stood up straight, saying, "What are you doing here?"
Gavin stared at the woman in front of him with a dark look.
"Of course, I came to see the daughter you secretly gave birth to."
Lesly’s heart shrank as she took two steps back in panic.
Did he know?
Maybe not.
Lulu looked like Lesly, but she did not look like Gavin at all. Unless someone told him, Gavin would not know who Lulu was.
"Come out. Let’s go outside and talk. Don’t wake Lulu up."
Gavin frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
He grabbed Lesly’s wrist and dragged her to the elevator.
"Let me go first. I walk by myself." Lesly tried to struggle.
But Gavin tightened his fingers and held Lesly’s wrist tightly. He did not let go of his strength.
Gavin only released his hand when they got off the elevator and reached the hospital’s garden.
Lesly covered her arm and felt that her bones were about to break.
"Tell me, what’s the matter with your daughter?"
Lesly did not look at him and said perfunctorily, "What else can it be? When I was abroad, I lived with my lover. Can’t I?"
"Lesly!" Gavin said furiously, "Be serious and answer my question. Don’t try to fool me, or..."
"Or what?" Lesly interrupted Gavin. "Mr. Bolton, will you have other means besides threatening me?"
Lesly took a step forward and said aggressively, "We have been divorced for six years. During that period, no matter who I was with or if I had other children, it had nothing to do with you. Who are you to question me?"
Gavin was speechless.
"Please don’t ask about my personal affairs in the future." After saying that, Lesly turned around and was about to leave.
"What about your daughter’s father?" Gavin said, "Do you know that she misses her father?"
Lesly froze.
She knew that although Lulu was sensible and never admitted it, Lesly knew that she had always wanted a father who loved her and doted on her.
"It’s none of your business."
"Did you know that Arnav has always wanted a mother?" Gavin didn’t know why he would suddenly say that, but he couldn’t help but want to say it out loud.
"He always minded the fact that you left him behind. He said that he hated his mother the most, but in fact, he missed you every day."
Lesly stopped, and her eyes were red. She clenched her fingers tightly.
"Lesly, let’s talk about an agreement." Gavin walked over and stood in front of Lesly, looking down at her seriously.
"We should sign a marriage agreement. You will be Arnav’s mother, and you will help heal the wounds in his heart. I will be Lulu’s father, and I will fill her missing paternal love. What do you think?"
Lesly was stunned, and her heart was a little shaken.
Gavin noticed that she was moved. Then, he soften his voice as if he was trying to coax her.
"I will allow you to reveal your identity as Arnav’s biological mother, and I can even help you two to reconcile. What do you think? Will you agree?"
