Third Person pov
By the time dinner was done, estella was feeling the exhaustion of the day and didn't bother to argue with Leonardo when he shoved dozen of medicine for her to eat.
Estella simply grumbled under her breathe and took the medicines which according to Leonardo were prenatal vitamins and medicine for her anemia.
After getting strict instructions from Leonardo to immediately call for him if she feels any sort of discomfort she bid Goodnight to everyone and went back to her room which was quickly turning a comfort place for her.
By midnight Leoanrdo made sure to check on estella to ensure she is sleeping.
He didn't wanted to risk her waking up and witness their talk.
To say Robert was displeased with his eldest son for not informing about estella's hospitalization would be an understatement.
Robert was only made aware of estella's hospital visit when he was on their private plane on his way back. But whatever Robert heard in his eldest sons voice prevented him from unleashing his anger on him.
By his dominating nature and fearful presence in the business world he is not someone to be defied but over the years Leonardo has been able to earn some mutual respect from his father.
Robert has always been proud of his children, he took pride even in their smallest accomplishments but Leonardo had a special place in his heart just as estella did.
It could be because he was the firstborn of Robert but deep inside his heart he knew , the sense of admiration only came to existence when he noticed how Leo took over not only the business to losses his father's burden but how he became a emotional support system for his brothers.
Leonardo was equally hurt if not more than his brothers, but he was absolutely selfless when it comes to his family. He had always put his siblings above his needs.
Robert knew Leonardo must have had a reason to prevent Robert knowing about it and he can only hope that nothing was wrong with estellas health.
Robert was absolutely restless throughout his flight. He wanted nothing more than to just have his princess in his embrace.
Though Leonardo assured that estella was fine it still wasn't enough to make him calm.
After all its been only few days his princess has came back yet she was admitted to hospital no father would be calm knowing his child was unwell and the cold billionaire father wasn't an exception.
Every single second on the plane away from his daughter felt painful to Robert.
The moment he reached New York ,breaking all the traffic he reached his home.
Robert rushed towards estella's room. His hurried footsteps alerting his presence to eldest maroni brothers who were awaiting their fathers arrival.
Looking at his eldest son Robert narrowed his eyes and spoke in a cold voice" we'll talk about it and you better have good explanation for your action"
Robert opened estellas room door slowly and walked inside as quietly as he can. He crouched near her bed and caressed her cheeks. Robert was finally able to breathe looking at his daughter being fine. She wasn't pale or anything.
" You scared me little star " he spoke lowly afraid to wake her.
Robert placed a feather like kiss on estella's forehead and exited her room just as silently as he came inside.
He found Leonardo and Cyrus standing outside estellas room waiting for him.
" My office NOW" Robert ordered his sons and walked away from there to his office briskly.
Leonardo and Cyrus followed their father and entered their home office. After making sure the door was locked Leonardo sat in front of his father.
" You better have a good reason to not inform me about estella's health" Robert growled looking at his two eldest sons.
Robert was well aware of Leonardo's habit of solving all the issues on his own but this matter involved his youngest child's health not some business deal.
And Cyrus though respects his father is way too loyal to Leonardo. It has been like this since their childhood. Whatever Leonardo did Cyrus would follow.
Sometimes Robert wonders if they are hidden twins of some sort ?
Leonardo and Cyrus shared a look as if having their own telepathic conversation. This agitated Robert more than he already was.
" WHAT IS IT ?" Robert shouted at his eldest sons.
Leonardo cleared his throat and fixed his posture as preparing for a battle and Cyrus removed all the objects made of glass put of reach from Robert.
Robert was growing more and more frustrated with their tactics and was seconds away from pulling out his gun from the drawer and shooting them.
Before he could say or do anything Leonardo decided to drop a bomb
" Estella is pregnant " Leonardo ripped off the band aid.
There was a deafening silence in the room .
" What did you say ? Am I supposed to find this funny ?" Robert gritted out not appreciating Leonardo's humor.
" Stella was feeling lethargic since morning and she threw up and fainted. When the doctors ran blood tests they found that ..uhm she wa-- is pregnant " Leonardo explained to his father
Robert just sat there stiffly. It was unfathomable to his that his little girl was pregnant
His youngest child was going to have a child of her own.
