Chapter 70

Hudson's POV:

My heart is racing and I'm literally shaking. I'm yelling like a psycho at the Piccadilly circus. I just found my daughter which I didn't know existed and then lost her when I tried to make her happy. How bad of a father am I. Everything is my fault. I should've told Ashley the truth and all of this wouldn't have happened.

"DENIZ!!" I yell and Ashley tries to yell too but her voice cracks all the time because she's crying. I walk fast around and look for her. I'm even asking strangers if they saw her but nobody seemed to recognize it.

For like 10 minutes we didn't find her and I decided to calm Ashley before she faints or something. Seconds are gone while I hug her then suddenly, Monika is coming towards us again. She's holding Deniz in her hand and looks for us until she sees me. I breathe out strongly when I see her and tell Ashley about it. We both hurry to her and hug her tightly. She looked scared and Monika was smiling when we hugged.

"I'm so sorry. It was my fault that you fought." She says sadly. Ashley and I move to face her at the same time.

"Don't ever say it's your fault. It was not!" I said calming her down. Ashley looks at me and again to Deniz.

"It was mine. I should've just told you from the first day that Hudson is your father. You deserve to know it." She says and I can't hold back my smile because of Ashley calling me Deniz' father.

"You are the father? Oh my God. Ashley, I'm so sorry for what I did to you and what it all caused. I regret it so hard that I can't even forgive myself for my behavior!" Monika starts crying. I feel bad for her. Being pregnant and this whole situation at the same time is way too much for her I guess. Ashley stands up and I'm afraid she will screw her off. She looks mad at Monika and I stand up too to be ready to stop her from doing something really bad. While I'm waiting she stares angrily. Suddenly, she hugs her.

"Thank you." She says and cries. Monika looks confused.

"F-For what?" Monika asks unsure.

"You brought her to me. You found my daughter I thank you for that. I know... what you did was awful but... I forgive you. You regretted it and probably learned a lesson. That's enough." Ashley moves to face her and hugs her again. Deniz holds my hand and I kiss the back of her hand.

"I'm so happy you found each other. I'm sorry cutie. You probably watched for your father out." She says to Deniz and my little girl hugs her.

"Forgotten, forgiven." She says and Monika gets emotional again and thanks her. Just like her mother she can't be mad at someone for a long time.

Monika's fiancee showed up and greeted us. Philip is his name and he's very nice. I once met him when they were dating and he respected me like I'm a part of Monika's family. I'm happy they're creating a family. Everyone deserves happiness.

Ashley's POV:

We are driving back home in the evening. Deniz is in the backseat and fell asleep. She must be very exhausted. So many things happened.

"I want to talk with your family." Hudson whispers. What? Is he insane?

"Why?" I ask instead.

"I... I just think I should apologize to them. I know they are mad and would kill me if they find me near you but... Deniz is my daughter too and I have the right to be part of her family.  I just want to make things clear with your parents and make them sure I will be there for you two." He assures me. I know this isn't a good idea but he won't listen to me anyway.

"You should wait. Talk first with my brothers before you talk to my dad. And Samir already knows you're here." I admit. Amar is hard to convince but Samir will sure help us. Well, it's not like we are getting back together. I'm just talking about him and Deniz.

Hudson makes a move to my thigh but regrets it. I look at him. No, I'm staring at him. When he recognizes it he looks at me too but still has to keep his eyes on the street. I nod as permission to hold my thigh and he smiles. His hand is now on my thigh and his thumb is caressing it. I automatically put my hand on his and he smiles even more.

"I like it this way." He mumbles.

"Like old times." I add.

When we arrived home Hudson carries Deniz and I open the door for him. I saw some other shoes at the door but I didn't notice until we got in and I hear a familiar man's voice. I turn to Hudson and he noticed too because he looked questioning at me.

Suddenly Meredith almost runs down the stairs and towards us. She looks stressed and dressed up.

"Oh my God... Hudson, you have to hide! They're here!" Meredith whispers afraid.

Who is here??
