Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

Adrian\'s cold expression remained for a while as he stared at the man unblinkingly.

Katherine saw that the scene in front of her eyes was becoming stranger. So she opened her mouth to pacify them. Just as she was about to say something, she heard her husband saying the words she had dreamt all night.

"Who said she was single?"

Murmurs spread across the place. All the employees watched their boss saying those words with a cold expression on his face. They were already surprised to hear those words from their cold boss\'s mouth.

Duke walked towards him and stood opposite to him very closely. His lips curved up with a smirk and said, "It\'s strange. What a surprise cold-hearted CEO like you would be obsessed with a sexy secretary! Can you tell everyone that she is your present mistress! " 

" No...you can\'t…" he added.

Adrian lost his control and punched Duke\'s face when he addressed their relationship in the wrong way.

Everyone was shocked by his boss\'s reaction. 

" How dare you call her as my mistress! " he roared like an angry bull and punched him continuously in the face. 

Katherine tried to stop him, pulling him back as everyone was watching. 

"Do you know who she is to me? What is my relation with her? " He shouted, kicking his abdomen with his legs.

" She is my wife, Katherine Wilson " He declared, fuming in anger.

As the security guards got the news, they ran towards them. 

" Take him to the basement of this building. I will teach you a good lesson to trouble my wife " he ordered the security guard.

" I am sorry, Mr. Wilson. Please forgive me " he begged him, holding his feet.

He lowered his eyes and stared at him. Then he again kicked his abdomen and asked to lock him in the darkroom of the basement.

Everyone who was watching Adrian was shaking in fear including Katherine. She had seen him so mad.

The security guards dragged him from the place holding his shoulder arms. Meanwhile, he made a call to someone and asked to come to the company. 

" Let\'s go to my cabin, " he said and pulled her closer to him, whereas all the employees looked at them with their mouths agape. Keeping his hands around her waist, he took her to his cabin.

He sat on his chair seriously and then leaned back on his chair, closing his eyes. She walked towards him hesitantly and placed her palm on his shoulder.

" Ad! Are you okay!! " she asked in a low voice.

All of a sudden, he pulled her on his lap and hugged her tightly. She was shocked by his gesture but remained silent as she knew he was upset. She stroked his hair gently to make him calm with her touch.

" Shall I bring coffee for you? " she asked him, after a while.

" No. Stay with me " he tightened his grip around her waist.

" Ad… What are you going to do with Duke! Why do you ask him to keep him in the basement? " she asked him with a worried expression.

" I have to think about it after I confirm one thing. Let him come first " he replied in a serious expression.

She moved her face a few meters away from his face and looked at him with confusion. 

" Tell me...what is going on in your mind? " he questioned.

" Shall you bring coffee for me? " he asked, taking his hands around her waist. 

She nodded her head as she understood that he was not ready to open up his thoughts with her. Slowly she walked to the cafeteria to get coffee for him. 

The employees were gawking at her with interest. She felt uncomfortable with their stares. She quickly finished her work at the cafeteria and walked out of that place.

When she placed her hand on the door of his cabin to open, suddenly she sensed someone at her back.

She turned her head back and was shocked to see them at the company.

" What are you both doing here? " she questioned them.

" Your husband made a call to us. So we are here, Mrs. Wilson, " Steven replied.

" Okay. Come inside…" She turned the doorknob and opened the door.

" Thanks for coming…." Adrian said, as soon as he noticed Ruby and Steven next to Kathie.

" Why did you ask me to come here, that too so suddenly? Are you are not interested in today\'s deal? " Steven asked him.

" Please have your seats. It\'s not like that, what you are thinking. I made a call so that you could meet someone in the basement, " Adrian said.

" Sure…Sure…"

" But before that, I badly needed some coffee," Steven said and took a cup of coffee from her hand which she brought for Adrian.

" Mr. Brown, I brought it for my husband," Kathie said in an angry tone.

" I see…" he replied, sipping the coffee whereas Ruby was watching him with amusement.

" Why do you call this annoying man to our company!" Kathie yelled at her husband.

" Why have you always made her angry with your stupid talk? " Ruby whispered in Steven\'s ears.

" Mr. Brown...have your coffee first. Then we will go to the basement " Adrian interrupted their conversation.

" Kathie...please don\'t ask me anything now. I have to discuss something important with Mr.Brown. You and Ruby stay in my cabin. We will be back, " Adrian instructed in a bossy tone.

Ruby and Kathie exchanged their looks as they didn\'t understand what was the matter. Meanwhile, Steven finished having his coffee.

" Mr. Wilson, what is the matter? " Steven asked.

" Let\'s go ...it\'s about the video which you showed in the restaurant" he informed and stood up from the chair.

Steven understood what Adrian was talking about. Immediately, both of them walked out of the cabin with a serious expression. On the other side, Ruby and Kathie looked at each other\'s faces blankly.

…..

In the basement of Adrian\'s office.

" Now...tell me, what is the matter? " Steven asked anxiously.

"I saw the same tattoo, just I want to see the same video who showed me on that day" Adrian informed.

Steven halted in the place and looked at him for a while with shock. He took out his mobile and played the video again of Adrian.

" It\'s the same tattoo…" he exclaimed.

" Let\'s go…." Adrain took long strides and went to the room in the basement. He noticed Duke was lying with bleeding lips and injuries on his shoulders. 

He quickly ran towards Duke and made him stand fisting his collar in anger. He punched on his face and yelled, " why do you drug my wife ? "

Duke shivered in his spine with Adrian\'s outburst. Adrian punched him in the face repeatedly. 

" Who was the woman with you? Who was behind this plan? Tell me!! " Steven started shooting questions to Duke.

" What are you talking about!! I don\'t know what you are saying !! " He lied but was scared like hell looking at the two angry men.

" Really!!! " Steven asked, examining his face.

Then he played video on his mobile and kept it before Duke\'s face. He looked at with horrified expression and his legs started shaking. 

" Tell me...if you think your life is precious to you " Steven threatened him.

" I really don\'t know what you are asking me!! " He lied again.

" Lock him in the room and make him starve for one week. Let him die in this dark room" Steven advised Adrian.

He snatched Duke\'s mobile from his pocket. Then they both walked out of the room, locking in the dark room. 

" Let him stay here till he agrees to tell us the truth, " Steven said and unlocked his mobile to get the evidence of his crime.

" I think if he finds out the recent call history and message history in his mobile " Adrian suggested.

" Good idea…" Steven replied.

" I have a friend from the police department. If we ask him for help, he will help us" Steven said and immediately made a call to his friend and explained the matter. 

After discussing the matter over the call, Steven\'s friend agreed to help them.

" I think it\'s better to wait till we get the complete information then only we can decide what to do, " Steven suggested.

" Thanks for helping me…" Adrian said.

" And once again sorry for Kathie\'s behavior. She was always sweet but I don\'t why she is rude with you " he added.

" There is a proverb, first impression is the best impression. I flirted with her in the first meeting. So it was my punishment" Steven replied.

Then he continued, " I think I have to do hard work to prove my love . Without your wife\'s approval , Ruby will not marry me. They have very good bonding "

Finally, they went to Adrian\'s cabin. Their thought Ruby and Kathie would be sitting silently in the cabin. But on the contrary , they were doing online shopping when they stepped inside the cabin.

" Women are really crazy...we can\'t predict their behavior, " Adrian said.

" Yes, you are right…" Steven laughed.. Both ladies glared at them.
