Chapter 50: Hidden Motives
The Wright family and Carlos’ guests were having tea or coffee, nearly concluding their dinner. The joyous gathering had dropped Carlos’ sadness over the DNA test, and while everyone was chatting merrily, Alexander’s eyes were glued to his phone. Eventually, unable to hold back his curiosity, he turned to Carlos and asked, “Did Savannah contact you, by the way?” Carlos and Kate were whispering to each other when Alexander spoke. The Devil turned to his friend, lifting his brow. He responded, “Why? She has no reason to contact me.”
Carlos crossed his arms at Alexander and inquired, “Did you contact her? I hope you used a VPN.”
“Relax, I did,” Alexander replied. “I’m always playing it safe.” When Carlos did not probe any further, Alexander suggested, “Can you text her, man? I checked on her if she was feeling better, but she did not answer.” Carlos chuckled and reminded him, “Alex, it’s probably two AM in Ireland right now.” “Yeah, I know, but I texted her in the morning,” Alexander revealed. “I also called her, but she did not answer.” “Maybe she is busy, and if she does not answer you, you can always ask her during the Wimbledon tournament,” Carlos suggested. “That’s not too long of a wait.” “Right,” Alexander said, his fingers raking through his curly blond hair. Just when Carlos thought his friend was done asking about Savannah, Alexander leaned in, pleading, “Can you call her tomorrow?” With his mouth open, Carlos was about to throw on objection, but he sighed and agreed,” Okay. I’ll check on her. Happy?” with a nod, Alexander said, “I’m just worried she was still traumatized by everything you know.”
“Yeah, whatever helps you convince yourself,” Carlos said, smirking.
Alexander frowned at him.

Kate and Carlos were leading toward the front door. Lemuel and Alexander were already outside, waiting by the car. Suddenly, Samantha came walking down the staircase, holding a small purse. Two maids walked down with her, carrying pieces of luggage and Carlos number two. She said, “Carlos, son, I’ll send my daughter to you to keep you company and keep those bear hugs coming.” After urging the maids to walk down faster, she told, “I had most of your clothes packed. Your laptop bag is here, then you might need your big bear -” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mom? What are you doing with iny stuff?” Kate asked, bemused.
“Well, isn’t it obvious? I’ın kicking you out of the house! You are old enough to live on your
own, and what better way to have your independence than to send you over to Carlos’ place while he is in Braeton? You can maintain to offer endless hugs?” Samantha appeared to speak decently, but at the end of her lines, she winked at Kate. Kate chuckled and approached her mother, saying, “Mom, I don’t need all my stuff at Carlos’ home He bought me clothes, shoes, and all my needed skin care products.” “Really?” Samantha’s eyes widened in delight. It reminded her of how Ethan bought her clothes for the first time. She complimented, “That’s nice.”
She glanced at Carlos, saying, “That’s nice, Carlos.” Carlos chuckled. He put his hands on his waist, answering, “Thank you, aunt.” Looking at what her mother had brought down from her room, Kate said, “Perhaps just my bear and my laptop, but you can put everything back.”
“Okay, sweetie,” Samantha said. She ordered the maids back to Kate’s room while Kate collected the ones that she meant to bring to Carlos’ home.
Returning her regard to the couple, Samantha recommended, “Both of you, take a good rest – not so good, just don’t stay up until four in the morning,” Samantha said, chuckling at the end of her words
“Mom! Please,” Kate reacted while her face burned. She quickly moved closer to her mother, adjusting the strength of her voice. “Don’t talk like this in front of Carlos.” “What? Why?” Samantha objected,
appearing to look gullible. Then she reminded, “Oh, and before you go Here is your refill.”
“My refill?” Kate asked, bemused.
“Yes, sweetie Your refill. I imagined you had used up the last ones I gave you,” Samantha emphasized while resting the purse in Kate’s hand. She said, “Try to use them up faster.” Kate looked down at the small bag She had an inkling, but she still opened the purse and took a prek. When she saw several packs of condoms, she gasped. She covered her mouth with her hand, muffling her giggles. Kate asked her mother, “Mom, whiat is this? These look new.”
“Oh, I don’t have those expired ones anymore, Kate,” Samantha whispered to her daughter.” Those are new “She winked and added, “But I had already done the necessary work for you, pokung them with needles.”

Kate expressed herself with hand gestures before confirming, “We do it, but we don’t use the rubbers, okay? Clear?” Hearing Kate’s confirmation, Samantha’s smile reached her ears. She said, “Nice. Good job, Kate. Thanks for working hard. Kate, “…”
Samantha turned to Carlos and sought, “Carlos, have you asked permission from Ethan?”
“Yes, aunt. He knows Kate will be staying with me. Uncle is in his study, taking to Kyle and Kaleb about business,” Carlos acknowledged. “And until when are you keeping Kate?” Samantha calmly asked. Carlos gulped. He cleared his throat before reluctantly admitting, “About two weeks, aunt.”
“Oh, how nice. Maybe next time, you can keep her longer,” Samantha remarked with a welcoming smile. “Then, take care of my daughter, okay? Again, don’t stay up until dawn. Haha. Just keep it until maybe one or two in the morning. The less stressed her body is, the better for conceiving.” With that, Samantha gave another wink. “Oh, my god, mom!” Kate exclaimed, her face turning red as a tomato. Carlos was the same, unable to hide the burning sensation on his face.
“Will you give me a grandson, too, Carlos?” Samantha appealed with puppy eyes. Carlos scratched his head. He smiled and stuttered in his reply, “I’ll – I’ll work on it, aunt.” “How nice,” Samantha replied. A look of contentment reflected on her face. “I know I could always count on you.” Waving her hand at the couple, Samantha bid them goodbye. “Take care, you too.”
At the door, Samantha watched as Carlos’ car left the driveway. It did not take long for Kyle and Kaleb to leave for their own homes as well. Both she and Ethan waved their sons goodbye at the door.
When Ethan and Samantha were left entirely alone, the two looked at each other with smirks on their faces. Ethan asked, “So Kate will be out for more than a week?” “Almost two weeks, Carlos said,” Samantha confirmed, winking at Ethan.
“Well played there, Misses Wright. You are indeed my wife,” Ethan praised while turning to Samantha. He pulled her against his solid frame and said sensuously, “Then I’ll give the maids an entire week off.
Only the guards at the gate can remain on watch.”
“With Kate away, we can have the house all to ourselves. I’ll make love to you in every corner of our home,” Ethan uncovered their hidden inotives.
The words of Ethan Wright sent delightful electricity throughout her body. Samantha wrapped her arm around his neck and said, “I love the idea!”
