"Let me... think it over." Catherine's mind was in a mess. Actually, Wesley had a point there.
If she wanted to tell others that Lucas was her son, she had to find a legal father for him. With Shuan’s personality, she would not be able to steer clear of him her whole life if he found out that Lucas was his son. 1
"What’s there to consider about this?"
Disappointment clouded Wesley’s face. "Lucas is a very nice and sensible child. Although he doesn't say i t, I know he feels upset whenever he can’t freely be with his mom like the other kids. He just doesn't say it out loud because he doesn't want to put pressure on you."
Catherine tightened her grip on the fork.
She knew what kind of child Lucas was, and his sensibility made her heart ache.
"Unless... you're still undecided on being together with me," Wesley said suddenly.
Catherine was stunned.
Was she still undecided? Had she not moved over already?
She was even mentally prepared to have sex with him, but he was the one who chose to live apart all along. Moreover, Shaun had been frequently appearing in her world these days. It made her very annoyed.
"Wesley, you said it yourself that Lucas is sensible, so I have to ask Lucas for his opinion on this." Catherine found an excuse.
"Okay." Wesley had no words to say. "Do you need me t o go shopping with you in the evening? Do you have anything you want to buy? You've been married to me for so long, yet I haven't spent any money on you."
"No need. I have an important meeting to attend in the evening." What Catherine said was the truth.
"Alright, then. I'll just go back to my company and work extra hours too. My wife is a workaholic anyway."
