Chapter 1275: Chapter 1270: Not a Single Man Is Any Good (2000+ The Old Mo Couple Makes a Cameo)
Before Evander Lancaster spoke, he sighed again, leaned back in the single armchair, crossed his legs, looked down at his interlaced fingers, hesitated, and said, "Second brother, Sophia... she had an abortion yesterday, so I..."
"Abortion? Sophia was pregnant?" Titus Zane interrupted before Evander Lancaster finished his sentence. Originally, she had her head resting on Nathan Moore’s shoulder, being affectionate with him, but upon hearing Evander say Sophia had an abortion, she immediately sat up, looked across Nathan Moore, her European eyes wide open.
Evander Lancaster nodded, "Yes,"
"Why did she abort the baby?" Titus Zane asked in astonishment. Every night Nathan Moore and she worked hard for a baby, but over a month had passed and there was no sign at all.
"It was an accident." Evander Lancaster forced a smile, his lowered gaze hid the emotions within. He was more saddened than anyone by the loss of the baby. A man past thirty longs for a child, longing for a family of his own.
"What accident? Could it be..."
"Alright, Darling, let Evander finish speaking." Nathan Moore interrupted Titus Zane, moved his large hand to her head and smoothed her long hair, his tone was smiling, his eyes and brows filled with warmth.
Titus Zane discontentedly wrinkled her nose, spoiled by Nathan Moore, becoming more and more childish.
Evander Lancaster tensed his interlaced fingers, saying, "It’s all my fault, causing Sophia to misunderstand, and in anger, she had the child aborted."
Evander Lancaster spoke lightly, avoiding the indelicate family matters.
"What misunderstanding would make Sophia heartlessly abort her own baby? Evander, did you have an affair with another woman?" Titus Zane looked across Nathan Moore again, and Evander Lancaster sighed heavily and said, "My cousin went crazy drunk and bit my ear."
Titus Zane...
Turned to look at Nathan Moore, who raised his eyebrows innocently.
"Hmph!" Titus Zane was still unhappy, inexplicably, she broke free from Nathan Moore’s arms and walked towards the stairs.
"You two talk, I’m tired and will rest first."
Evander Lancaster looked up in puzzlement, Titus Zane’s reaction was obviously unhappy.
"Second brother, what’s wrong with sister-in-law?"
Nathan Moore withdrew his gaze from Titus Zane, smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law is angry with you."
"Angry? How did I upset sister-in-law?" Evander Lancaster was even more confused, Nathan Moore sighed long, looked down at his thumbs that were ceaselessly interacting, and said, "Every night she and I strive for a baby, while you had one and failed to treasure it."
Evander Lancaster...
Pressed his lips together, speechless.
Nathan Moore sighed again, raised his head, "Say, how can I help you?"
"Sophia’s health needs rest, could you please grant her some extra days off?"
"Sure, no problem." Nathan Moore readily agreed, and Evander Lancaster also stood up, "Then I’ll be off. Better go soothe sister-in-law."
"Okay," Nathan Moore leaned back in the sofa, didn’t get up, "No need to see me off, drive carefully."
Evander Lancaster waved his hand while walking toward the door.
After Evander Lancaster left, Nathan Moore got up too, in the studio, Titus Zane was picking up the paintbrush again.
"What’s wrong, Darling, are you upset?" After walking in Nathan Moore embraced her from behind, opened his thin lips, and enveloped her earlobe.
Titus Zane shrugged her shoulders, impatiently said, "Move aside, don’t interrupt my painting."
Nathan Moore knew her thoughts, smiled and said, "Their child was lost, why are you angry,"
"Hmph! You men are all no good!" Titus Zane scoffed as she painted.
Nathan Moore...
Is this considered collateral damage?
The tall man looked ahead from behind Titus Zane’s shoulder, reached over to snatch the paintbrush from her hand and put it on the easel, then turned her around to face him.
His obsidian eyes containing a warm smile, he asked, "Darling, what did your husband do wrong, please point it out, your husband will certainly change."
"Hmph!"
Titus Zane gave Nathan Moore a glance, huffed coldly again, "Men are all the same, not a single decent one! Evander seems kind and easy-going but ends up being irresponsible!"
Nathan Moore shrugged helplessly, "He is him, I am me. As long as your husband is a good man, it’s okay, don’t be angry, okay? Come, give your husband a kiss."
"Don’t bother, you’re not that great yourself!" Nathan Moore’s handsome face leaned over, only to be pushed away by Titus Zane in disgust.
"Wife, you can’t just lump everyone together, think of how good your husband is to you," Nathan Moore’s words were fine until he spoke them, immediately Titus Zane’s expression turned frustrated, her chest heaved continuously, pouting with grievance, her breath audible.
With resentment, she looked at Nathan Moore and said, "You’re still talking, you have forgotten the way you used to treat me, with sexual abuse and even hitting me..."
Nathan Moore...
He didn’t know his woman held grudges, remembering things from years back. Helplessly he sighed, holding the aggrieved woman close, stroking her back while endlessly apologizing, "I’m sorry, I was wrong before, I wasn’t human, I was a beast..."
"Hmph, indeed!" Titus Zane grumbled discontentedly, simultaneously tapping Nathan Moore lightly.
Nathan Moore...
Suddenly furrowed his brow with pain, groaned, Titus Zane hurriedly pushed him away slightly, anxiously asked, "What’s wrong? Did I accidentally hit your wound?"
Nathan Moore nodded in pain, Titus Zane got even more anxious, repeatedly saying, "Sorry, I didn’t mean it," then helped him out of the studio.
Unseen was that the man clinging to her had a smile at his lips.
Sophia Hamilton was back at work the next day, dressed in jeans and sneakers, covered by a thin cotton jacket, driving her QQ, after the previous incident, she dared not wear something too thin.
When Nathan Moore arrived at the company, Sophia Hamilton was already at her desk, politely greeted him, Nathan Moore nodded, then once in his office, he called his brother.
"Evander, why is your woman at work?" Didn’t he specifically go to his house last night to request leave?
"Sophia Hamilton went to the company?" Evander Lancaster puzzled, Nathan Moore nodded, instinctively turning to look at the office entrance, "She’s seated at the secretary’s desk."
Over on the other side, Evander Lancaster squinted his phoenix eyes, "Got it."
After ending the call, Nathan Moore pressed the internal line, "Secretary Han, come in for a moment." Although she was his brother’s woman, during business hours, he always addressed her as such.
After hanging up, Sophia Hamilton came out from behind the secretary’s desk, walked to the president’s office door, knocked, hearing Nathan Moore’s voice, she pushed the door open, hands clasped, formally asked, "President, what is it?"
