Billionaire's Baby ✓

Chapter Nineteen

Chapter nineteen

Aditya stumbled as he stepped inside the Malhotra mansion. He frowned and looked behind at the step that he just missed. Right then he smacked his head into the door which he never knew was there before.

"When was this door fixed here?" He cursed rubbing the part where it hurt and glared at the door before moving past it.

Walking into Sahil's room he found him sitting on his bed with his laptop. Glaring hard at him, he marched towards him and shut his laptop angrily.

"Why the fuck did you call me when all you wanted to do was work? And when the hell did you fix that door over there?" Aditya hissed and Sahil just raised his eyebrows.

"Are you drunk?" Sahil questioned purposely to irritate him and as expected Aditya narrowed his eyes at him.

"I would've killed you here, at this chance but I care about your unborn baby, so I'm sparing you." He said arrogantly and plopped on the bed beside him.

"Now spill!" Aditya ordered and Sahil rolled his eyes.

"Will I be a good father?" It was a straight, direct question and Aditya knew where this was coming from. He sat up straight and looked at Sahil with a serious expression.

"You will be the best father if you let yourself be." The answer was twisted and Aditya made no move to clarify himself until Sahil asked him.

"What does that mean?" He asked and Aditya sighed.

"Sahil, tell me one thing, are you doing all this to get your grandfather's property?" Sahil looked blank as he always does but this time Aditya could see him questioning himself.

"Of course I am." He answered and Aditya nodded because he'd never lie, atleast to him.

"Now are you going to ignore your child after you get the property?" There was something in his eyes, maybe a trace of  vulnerability, longing or pain but Aditya saw it. Although he didn't comment because he never did as he understood his inner turmoil.

"You know I would never." His voice was a little strained but he covered it with his hard look.

"Are you sure, you'd never?" He pressed on the subject more and Sahil clenched his jaw as well as hands.

"Aditya!" He warned and Aditya raised his hand in surrender but his mood was successfully ruined. Sahil looked away trying to calm his anger.

"But what triggered this topic?" He asked looking at him curiously while Sahil remembered how Srishti had mumbled it in her sleepy state.

"Srishti." One word was enough to bring a small smile on Aditya's face. He somewhere felt that it must've been her but didn't mention it himself.

"Now that you've mentioned her, answer my one more question. Will you be able to give your child, both, father's and mother's love? I mean that is what you've stated in the contract right? For the mother to hand over the child to you and leave." This was the first time that they had been calmly discussing over this topic.

Aditya watched Sahil's face keenly and tried to gauge his expressions although he didn't show any.

"I don't know." A sigh left his lips because for the first time he didn't know the answer to the question. Aditya smiled secretly because he didn't straightaway made an excuse or arrogantly answered in positive.
