Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Wife

Richie dashed towards the door knowing that he had to do something immediately before his father would leave. The man had been struggling not to feel guilty but at the same time he felt it compulsory to talk to his father, the man had never made Richie feel that he was not his son. But now that Richie had mistreated him the man was deeply hurt, Mr Noah stood outside the room and expected Richie to say something but upon getting the silence his eyes swelled up in tears. ‘This…. I never knew something like this would happen. I can’t believe that this day would come in front of me.’ His trembling voice died within heart, the man wanted to say those things out loud but upon seeing that Richie was not letting him talk the old man felt it was completely useless to stay there. He put his hand on the door and lowered his head and a flashing thought played in his head as he recalled how Richie and him had a good relationship. But perhaps now that when he was in trouble Richie did not want his help and thus he behaved badly knowing that his sudden bad behaviour would definitely hurt the old man. ‘It’s okay, it’s fine. I think my time has come to leave you alone,’ The old man felt a hard lump on his throat as he had been consistently talking to himself, although, the he still waited for a few seconds hoping that he would actually come out. ‘I think it’s the time to give you the whole authority over what’s yours in the first place.’ The old man could not help and refraining himself from not crying was impossible, a tear crawled down on his cheek and got absorbed in the carpet which possibly might have been mourning if it could speak. “Okay, son… if you want to take time I will understand. Definitely understand.” Mr Noah tried to sound completely calm as if the incident and Richie’s cold treatment hadn’t affected him the way Richie thought it would have. His wrinkled hand placed on the door trembled a little as the old man put it off. “But you have to know that I will always be by your side, I will wait for you and will always be there to listen to you whenever you are ready.” The butler forced a smile and shook his head as a soft chuckle in a low shallow voice resonated from his mouth. The very scene left Richie troubled and shaken on the event, he was not ready to face his father but on the other hand he did not want to lose the man too. Mr Noah was the only person who had stayed by his side ever since and Richardson was aware that he would not be able to function properly if that old man left. “I’m leaving the food here, make sure to eat okay.” The old butler waited for Richie to say anything but upon getting no response from his side the old man placed the tray on the table in the arcade. He sniffed and wiped off his tears and turned around to leave, when the door opened. But in the very moment Richie heard the sound of the metallic tray and gasped that even though his father scolded him he still cared about him. And upon realizing that the situation can turn worse after he missed the chance to talk to him, Richie stood up from the chair and took one step forward. He wanted to stop him from going but somehow he could not move an inch further. Richie gritted his teeth and suddenly recalled what his father just said and remembered that they promised to be each other’s best friends and pals never leave the other one alone. Somehow Richie was able to muster courage and wiped off his tears and shook his head, the man lunged towards the door and opened it. As soon as the door flung open Mr Noah appeared in front of Richie, the young man stared deeply in his eyes and they both exchanged a meaningful expression. Both of the men had many things to say but their unsaid lips and speaking gazes told them both so many things which were left unspoken. The moment felt as if everything stopped in that particular arcade where they both had been standing silently while staring at each other. “I…. I’m….” Richie opened his mouth in the attempt to speak anything, the words came out of his mouth stuttered as the man could not keep himself calm and composed. Richie was ashamed and stunned that his father was still smiling at him. The man was willing to do everything in his power to give him happiness, Richie whispered while swallowing a hard lump of shame and tears down his throat. “I’m sorry dad, I did not mean to hurt you… I’m terribly sorry for hurting your emotions and behaving bad.” The man burst out in tears and cried like a toddler in front of Mr Noah, the old man shook his head and smiled at him. The old man reached for his son’s collars and pulled Richie into a hug, the young one cried and poured his heart out to his father. Richardson regretted hurting him and knew that no matter what he needed him in his life, as his mentor and as his elder. “It’s okay son, it’s okay.” While Richie cried the old man spoke to him lovingly while patting his back, he knew how sensitive his son was and how guilty he must have felt during the whole time. But hereby I ask you what would happen when Mr Noah would finally see the clip which Alessandro had deliberately crafted to prove his words true? The old man was still in favor of Elle but how will he decide the truth after that evidence?This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
