Lucas POV  “What are you doing here?” I asked, awkwardly stroking her glossy black hair. Not only was I worried about her safety, but I was also concerned about her medical condition.  She wrapped her little arms around my neck.   “I missed you.” She uttered, and I felt like someone punched me hard on the chest.  I could not breathe.  “I missed you, too,” I told her before pivoting on my heels, with her still in my arms, and going back to the elevator, ignoring the open-mouthed stare of my employees.  

Katherine POV Without waiting for Dan to announce my arrival, I barged in to Lucas Sanders' office to find a very cozy scene.   Luke Sanders held my daughter in his arms and had this happy look on his face.  It was like, how do I explain this? They both fit together. An ache filled me at the sight of them together, and while I yearned to watch them longer and soothe this ache in my heart, I couldn’t.  The need to hug my daughter is imperative.  I grabbed Erin in my arms, relief coursing through every part of my body when my arms surrounded her, and I was assured of her safe

Lucas POVAfter Greg Combs dropped the bomb that Katherine is my mistress within earshot of my employees, I knew I needed to do something. I did not know what came over Combs to rush out here and demand to see Katherine. The only consolation in this unfortunate situation was that Katherine and Combs did not meet outside the office.If that happens, I don’t know what other lies the latter would spout to make it look like Katherine was the problem in their relationship and not the other way around. Now, I need to apply remedial steps to save Katherine's face at least. I called Oliver, and thankfully, he came right up immediately. “I heard what happened with Combs outside the building.” He said stiffly after Dan ushered him in.I sighed when I saw him. I noticed he was still mad at me, but that is unimportant right now. Helping Katherine maintain her reputation is. “I need you to do something for me.”“What?” He asked, looking disinterested. “Can you do a press release about Erin

Lucas POV“She had an accident five years ago,” Kurt reported. In my hands, I was looking at hospital reports and winced. “She stayed two months in comatose,” I said dully, unable to perceive Katherine in such a state. Just thinking about it leaves a constriction in my chest. I could not breathe when I thought about what she had gone through.“Now, that explains why she did not know us.  She was not faking it.” Oliver pointed out.His comment made me feel worse. And to think that I branded Katherine as a great actress for keeping up the pretense of cluelessness when she, in fact, did not know us. I shook my head.  I feel like a j*rk for thinking so poorly of her. Maybe she just did love Combs so much that she chose him over me.  It was just unfortunate that she had an accident right after she ran away with him.“The hospit

Katherine POVMy brows furrowed. “Sorry for what?” Greg had so many things to apologize for, and I wanted to be clear about what he was apologizing for. “For everything.” He made a flick of his hand. “The divorce, Noreen, for failing to protect you from my mother’s wrath and for treating you and Erin poorly when I promised to be the best husband and father. I am sorry.” I did not expect this, and my heart began to thud painfully in my chest. Tears welled in my eyes, and I bit my lip to stop the sob from coming out. I inhaled deeply, filling my lungs with air until it hurt. “You don’t belong to me. The two of you. I can’t love Erin because I know when your memory comes back and you remember who Erin’s father is, the two of you will leave me for him.” I sighed. “So, you turned your affections on Noreen,” I concluded bitterly. Greg looked away. “Noreen was my ex-girlfriend.”I shook my head, clearly intrigued. “I don’t understand. What does that have to do with everything?
