Make my Mom Fall in Love with Dad 43 Second Chances

Alec stormed inside the house. His heavy footstep echoed throughout the hallway. When he reached his room, he angrily tossed his suit jacket.

Angrily pulling his hair, Alec dialed his mom's number.

"How's your uncle's anniversary party son? Did you told them about me being sick that's why I wasn't there to celebrate with them?"

"..."

"Son are you still there? Did something happen? Are you alright?" Lucy's worried voice echoed throughout the dark room.

"I've found Hestia."

"Where?" Her voice was hopeful.

"She was with Damon." Alec's jaw tightened when he remembered how his cousin affectionately treat Hestia at the party.

"Why was she with him? Does Hestia worked for him?" She asked. She was confused about how they knew each other because as far as she knows Hestia was never interested in the corporate world not even when she was with her son. Hestia's already happy about being a baker because that was her dream along with being Alec's wife.'

Alec sighed his frustration and anger. "Hestia is Damon's fiancee, Aunt Lila introduced Hestia as her daughter-in-law during her speech." He heard her mother's gasped. "And they introduced my son as their grandkid." He tightened his clutched at his celphone. 'When he heard the announcement he was shocked. Obviously the kid was not Damon's but they warmly accepted his son as their own and that pissed him off. What right do they have to own what belongs to him.'

"How can that be? Did you talked to Hestia?" The news made Lucy stagger. She moved to sit on the sofa of her room.

"She refused to talk to me."

Lucy clearly heard the bitterness in his son's voice. "Oh Alec! What about my grandchild? How is he?" Lucy wrapped her arm around her waist.

Alec smiled fondly. "He looked exactly like me when I was a kid." When he heard the name of his son, he was pleased that Hestia used the name they choose together when they were planning about their future.

Lucy sighed. She was relieved to hear that her grandchild is doing well. "That's good to hear. Did you have the chance to introduce yourself?"

Alec shaked his nod. "I didn't have the chance to talk to Ichigo. That damn Damon was always beside them like a mother hen."

"Alec please don't act harshly, wait for me before you do something about your situation." Lucy was worried that her son might act without thinking about the consequences. "I'll be there tomorrow afternoon so please promise me son don't rush things."

Alec looked over the moon and he remembered the times they went stargazing. He clutched his chest when he felt a prickling pain in his heart. "I'll wait for you then, good night mother." He pressed the end call button without waiting for his mother's reply.

Alec dragged his weary body to the bed and when he reached it he dropped his body on the soft mattress. He raised his arm to cover his eyes. He cursed when the image of Hestia popped in his head.

"F*** it!" He abruptly stood up. 'He needs alcohol and he needed it badly.' Alec walked towards the bar to get himself something hard to drink.

Meanwhile at Lambher Country.

Lucy paced back and forth inside her room, she was beyond shocked when she heard about Hestia's whereabouts. She was looking all over for her. She even hired the bests private detectives just to find Hestia but they all failed to find her, it was like she vanished in thin air. Hestia really did not want to be found.

Lucy sat on her bed. She began to bite her fingers a habit she used to do whenever she's upset or concerned about something. Without thinking twice, Lucy took her suitcase out and laid it on her bed. She grabbed some clothes and other necessities she needs to bring to Arganz City*.

Lucy closed the suitcase with trembling hands. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves.

All the unspeakable things she did to Hestia popped to her mind. She was like watching a bad movie projected by her brain. Lucy blanched when she remembered the time when she pushed Hestia on the pavement when she was telling her about her pregnancy. Tears were rolling down her cheeks, she almost killed her grandchild. She cried her regrets and relief until she was hoarse and unable to cry.

Lucy deeply regreted the way she treated Hestia. She allowed herself to be deceived.

She was a fool to believe Mary's lies. She trusted Mary because she saw her grow up along side her son, she even treated her like a daughter but then she put her trust to the wrong person. Thankfully she now know the truth and now that Hestia has been found she will make it up to her and to her grandchild Ichigo. She wiped her cheeks and the remaining tears away, she's just hopeful that Hestia could give her and specially her son a second chance.
