Their Innocuous Wife

Fatherly embrace

💜✨

Vanessa was sitting on the passenger seat happily gazing out of the window and the box which was given by Alejandro to her was settled on her lap while Mikhail was the one who was driving the car. Liam sat at the back seat busy texting Cristina but she was not replying which got him to frown and worried at the same time.

Vanessa was oblivious of pair of eyes glancing at her time to time observing her. She was engrossed in looking outside of the window and the people passing by the road. Her one hand was on the box holding it securely in her lap.

"Why are you hiding the truth from your husbands, princess?" suddenly Mikhail questioned her turning her startled and snap her gaze at him. It gained Liam's attention too and put his phone at side giving his full attention to them.

"W-W-What truth?" she asked with a frown settled on her face.

"You know princess what truth I'm talking about. You didn't tell the brothers about your condition, right?" he asked her not averting his gaze away from the road which made her eyes slightly widened.

"N-N-No I didn't." Vanessa said lowly looking at the box in her lap.

"I know you are trying to hide it from them. Did you think I can't see it?" he asked with a little sternness in his voice and Vanessa sat silent for a while.

"P-P-Papa I-- I don't want to tell them this." she mumbled which made Mikhail to sigh.

"I know you surely have any valid reason for not telling them about this. It's not like I'm taking their side or something but they are your husbands and being your husbands text deserve to know it." Mikhail said sensibly to which Vanessa just slowly nodded her head in yes.

"I-I-I don't want to make them worried." she said lowly and puckered her lips out. Mikhail briefly glanced at her and then turned his attention back to the road.

"I'm sure if they will get to know about it later they will be disappointed also, with worried. I'm just telling you as a man's point of view. If your mama would be hiding something like this from me and I get to know about it later I would be hurt and disappointed that she didn't trust me with something so important related to her." Mikhail told her softly putting Vanessa in dilemma.

She was sitting there thinking whether to tell the brothers or not. She still didn't want the brothers to know about her disease. She thought once she will be alright then she will told them about it.

"Think about it, princess if I wanted I would have told them but it's your call to them." he said patting her shoulder and then got down the car. Vanessa also climbed down with Liam following behind.

They all entered inside the park and as soon as they entered Vanessa handed the box to Mikhail and ran away towards the kids playing there. Liam shook at her jolly nature and sat on the near by bench. Mikhail also sat beside him admiring Vanessa from a far. They both didn't notice that small smile were gazing their lips.

"Didn't she grow up so fast?" Mikhail asked looking at her dreamily.

"Indeed she did." Liam said in a haze looking at his baby sister.

"Never thought one day she will be married and live far away from us." Mikhail said with a sad glint in his eyes while looking at her.

"Yeah I remember how you used to fight with mama saying that her husband will have to come and live with you in your mansion instead of taking her away from you." Liam said with a lazy smile on his face.

"I wish that words of mine could become true and she would be living with us." Mikhail said shaking his head disapprovingly.

"I wish too." Liam said shortly and then silence fell between them.
