Laura's POV.

“Did you see that?” I asked Lucas, my heart still racing from the flash.

Lucas frowned at the direction I used my finger to point towards. His hand still slipped tightly around my waist.

“See what?”

“The light,” I said quickly. There was a flash right there. Like a camera.”

“There's no one here, Laura.” he said, turning his head to a different direction as his eyes scanned his office.

“I know what I saw,” I insisted, my voice trembling now. “Someone is watching us.”

All what I wa

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 88: You Deserve Better Than Lucas!

    Laura's POV..I needed five minutes away from the penthouse. Lucas had been buried in phone calls all morning, trying to uncover who had sent the DNA report to him. I didn't want to interrupt him, so I walked into the quiet café across the street. Using the opportunity to receive fresh air.I had barely wrapped my fingers around a cup of tea when a shadow stopped beside my table."May I sit with you?"I looked up to see a man standing there, he looked like a man who would be in his late thirties. He wore a simple black suit, no flashy watch, or accessories.There was something calm about him, and it would surely make people listen to him before he even spoke."I'm sorry," I said. "Do I know you?""No, you don't," he said, smiling at me."Then why are you asking to sit with me?""Because every other seat is taken." he replied, I glanced around. He was right so I nodded my head at him."Go ahead and sit down." I said."Thank you." he replied, sitting down without invading my space."I'

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 87: A Father And Daughter Bond!

    Lucas's POV.Laura's words stayed in my head. She told me to be a father to Zara, I sat alone for several minutes before I finally forced myself to leave the study room. She literally left me there all by myself alone.I found Laura sitting on the couch, reading a novel she clearly wasn't paying attention to. She looked up immediately she noticed my presence."You finally came out."“Yes I did. Where's Zara?" I asked, Laura closed the novel in her hands before responding to me."She is in her room.""Is she sleeping?""I don't think so.""I guess I should talk to her." I said, rubbing my forehead in anxiety. "You should.""But I don't know what to say.""Don't think about it too much.""What?""Stop trying to find perfect words.""I'll only make things worse.""You already did. But she's still waiting for you, she is your daughter afterall.” she said with so much honesty and her words stung deep into me. I just let out a frustrated sigh."You really don't let me hide, do you?""I fel

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 86

    Lucas's POV."What do you mean by I'm not your daughter?" Zara asked, her words breaking me.Zara stood at the bottom of the staircase, tears rolling down her cheeks before anyone had the chance to answer her. "Zara. Take it easy, you aren't feeling good.” Laura said. Zara's eyes weren't on her but on me."Dad. Please tell me all of this is a lie?” she asked. I just couldn't say anything to her. I was used to negotiating billion-dollar deals without breaking a sweat while staring at different men stern faces but the little girl I raised all by myself. I couldn't say a word to her anymore."Dad." she whispered again. "Say something, please. I'm talking to you.”“Baby, Zara is talking to you. At least give her an a swear, she's already feeling so bad.” Laura said, tapping me gently."My personal doctor, Nathan Rab a DNA test on both of us.” I managed to say as Nathan cleared his throat.“This is a family matter so I would love to excuse myself. See you some other time, Lucas.” Nathan

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 85: The Results!

    Lucas's POV.Three damn fucking days was how long I waited. In those days, I pretended everything was normal.Three days of watching Zara laugh at breakfast and listening to her argue with me over stupid things.I kept on looking at her and thinking about a report I never should have agreed to. I already had regrets.The doorbell rang as I pressed a button on my phone and the entrance door opened. Laura finally looked up, she had been pressing her phone for several hours.Dr. Nathan Reed stepped in holding a large sealed envelope. Everywhere began to suddenly feel suffocating for me, especially when I saw his expression.He walked closer to us and from his expression, I could already have a hint of what was about to happen."Lucas." he called out."Just fucking give it to me." I said and he handed over the envelope to me. I wrapped my hands around it and suddenly it felt heavier than how any paper should feel.Laura stood up immediately, moving to me. She was so close to me that I fel

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 84: Swab Tests!

    Lucas's POVI read the message again, I was taking in the words into my head as though I was trying to register it in my brain.The words refused to change, even though I didn't want to believe it and Laura had gone completely silent even though she was beside me.The only thing I could hear was my own heartbeat pounding inside my head."No."The word left my mouth before I even realized it."No."I shook my head."This is nonsense." I stood up from the couch instantly and due to my force on it, the couch nearly tipped over."This is some sick joke."My eyes dropped to the attachment on the message. It was a partial DNA Report.I opened it, reading through a few lines with medical terms, numbers, and references. It wasn't complete or even conclusive.But it was just enough information to plant doubt in a person's mind and also to destroy someone's peace."What kind of person does this?" I muttered as Laura carefully reached for my arm."Lucas."I pulled away from her. I wasn't angry w

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 83: She Is Not Biologically Yours!

    Laura's POV."Move!"Lucas's voice echoed through the hospital as he carried Zara in his arms. Zara wasn't fully unconscious yet, she would close her eyes and then she would open her eyes frequently. It felt as though her body was fluctuating."Dad. Please save me.” she begged with a weak voice. All I did was rush behind them."I'm here, sweetheart.""Don't cry.""I'm not crying. I won't cry, you raised me to be a strong woman.”I looked at Lucas and nearly broke down myself. He was absolutely terrified for his daughter.The strong, confident man who faced criminals without fear looked completely helpless. A team of nurses rushed toward us."Put her here." one of the nurses said. Lucas carefully laid Zara on the hospital bed."What happened?" a doctor asked."She fainted but she regained consciousness. She is currently weak.”"Any previous medical condition?""No.""Any allergies?""No.""When did she last eat?" the doctor asked and Lucas rubbed his forehead."At dinner.""That is oka
