SWNOVELS Chapter 110
Chapter 110
Bella's POV:
The kiss was fierce and full of anger. I clearly felt the pain, but I couldn't push him away.
Soon, Herbert's hand touched under my clothes, and I was very scared.
I knew Herbert's character very well. He would follow his needs and ignore my feelings.
At this moment, I felt a little regretful that I had angered him just now, but it was too late to regret now!
My pajamas were pulled open by him. When I was sighing that I was going to be trampled by him again, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"Dad... Dad..." It was the voice of Lucas!
Hearing this voice, Herbert immediately stopped all his actions.
Lucas was sitting on the bed, rubbing his eyes with his little hands while looking at us.
At this moment, my face became hot!
Herbert also let go of me. I immediately reached out and pushed him away.
At this time, Lucas had climbed to the bedside, stretched out his little hand, and shouted at Herbert, "Dad... Dad..."
Herbert quickly picked up Lucas. The anger just now had completely disappeared. Instead, he intimately held Lucas and asked in a soft voice, "Do you miss your father?"
Lucas couldn't speak, so he could only open his mouth and shout. But I could see that he was very close to Herbert, and he was very dependent on him. The little guy kept touching his cheek with his little fat hand.
Thad stayed with Lucas for several days, so I knew a little about his habits. If he liked someone, he would often touch their face with his little fat hand, and sometimes he would kiss them, which showed that he liked them very much.
In the past few days, I had been kissed many times by him.
It was really a good feeling to be kissed by Lucas. It was very pleasant. Wait a minute. Did Lucas just call Herbert his father?
Was he the son of Herbert?
What did he mean? How could Herbert have a son? He was not married to Caroline, and it was impossible that the child was Caroline's son. Lucas was 11 months old. 11 months? If my son was still alive, 11 months would have passed. Could it be...
suddenly became very agitated. I immediately asked, "Herbert, is this child really your son?" Herbert's hand that was touching Lucas's face paused for a moment, and then he said, "Of course, his is my son!" ucas was the son of Herbert!
"Is Lucas our..."
Before I could finish my words, Herbert interrupted me. "No!"
I didn't believe what he said. The more I thought about it, the more suspicious I felt. "He is 11 months old now. If our son was still alive, he would be this old. At that time... at that time, you said that our child was dead, but you didn't let me see the body of the child at all. You..."
"The child is dead. I adopted Lucas from an orphanage." Herbert interrupted me again.
"He was adopted?" I tilted my head and stared at Herbert in confusion. I didn't believe him at all.
At this moment, there was a glimmer of hope in my heart. If Lucas was my son, then my child was not dead at all!
With a serious look on his face, Herbert said, "When our son died, I was very sad. At that time, someone abandoned a boy who was only born a few days ago at the gate of the orphanage. It was the first time for me to see Lucas. Later, I went through the adoption procedure and kept the child with me."
Although he said so, I still had a glimmer of hope in my heart. Maybe I would rather believe that Lucas was my child than admit that my child was dead.
"Is what you said true? Is he really not our son?" I stared at the little face of Lucas and asked.
Herbert said, "At that time, I couldn't stand the death of my son, and that was why I decided to adopt him. Now I feel that my decision is right, because I have given all my love to him, and he has integrated into my life."
I didn't refute his words, and I agreed with him very much. Because in just a few days, I couldn't leave Lucas, not to mention that Herbert had raised him for so long.
He was like a little angel, which could cure all the pain and sadness.
No matter how much damage I had suffered outside, as long as I saw a smile on his face, everything would be worth it.
But after confirming that he was not my son, I was inevitably a little depressed.
If I had been in a state of hopeless, perhaps I would not feel too bad.
It was just like a wound. After a long time, it would form a scab.
Although the wound was still there, there was no obvious pain.
But just now, I really thought that Lucas was my child, and it ignited my hope again, but then it was destroyed. This feeling was like tearing apart the scab on the wound. I lowered my head and adjusted my mood. Soon, I heard the voice of Herbert. "Now can you tell me why you are here?" "Gaynor caught a severe cold and was afraid of infecting Lucas. Klein couldn't find a nanny to take care of him, so he had no choice but to ask me to take care of Lucas for a few days." I replied calmly.
Herbert frowned and said, "My family doesn't know that I adopted Lucas. So I hope that you wont reveal this secret. I hope that Lucas can grow up in a normal environment. I don't want him to be involved in the family struggle. It's not good for his growth." Herhert was very thoughtful, and what he was worried about was indeed a problem. I knew

Herbert's mother too well. She might not necessarily agree to him adopting Lucas, and Caroline was a tough person
It was indeed beneficial to keep the secret of adopting Lucas from the public. We didn't continue to talk, and the atmosphere in the room was a little depressed. I said, "Since you are back, I should go!" After that, I turned around and packed up my things. At this time, Herbert, who was behind me, said, "You can leave tomorrow morning. It's very late now, and there is no taxi here at this time." I stopped packing. He was right. There was no taxi at night. "Ah... ah..." At this time, Lucas wanted to drill into my arms. My heart softened when I saw his face. Then I reached out and held him in my arms.
As soon as he returned to my arms, he began to rub his eyes and hug my neck. I said to Herbert, "He's sleepy. Let me coax him to sleep. You should go and rest." Herbert's expression softened a lot. "Sorry for troubling you." Herbert gently touched Lucas's head and turned to leave the room. The baby was soon asleep in my arms. I gently put the baby on the bed and looked at him while he slept.
In fact, I didn't want to leave Lucas tonight, but I had to leave tomorrow. At this moment, my heart was full of attachment to him, and it even exceeded my previous feelings for Herbert.
This feeling was amazing. It was obvious that he was not my son. I had only taken care of him for a few days, but I've developed a deep relationship with him.....
