Chapter 581 - 194: Ethan is a father (10)

" Dad, can you please follow her and do everything to help her and her son? Smith is one of Jarren's subordinates and also a member of the Eagle Squad and this thing won't happen if not for me and the bachelor party. Ethan said to his father as he took his phone out of his pocket and dialed Smith's number 

As Marcus and the others followed Shairel to find where her child is currently in as the hospital is big and they didn't want to go and to the nurse's station to ask, Marcus cannot help but doubt his son in law's words

What if the child is his son? What if his Ethan is only denying it as he is afraid that Morgana will divorce him once she learned that Ethan has a child and the baby was conceived before their wedding?

As he walked, Marcus is thinking about how to get a sample of the child's DNA, he wanted to make sure that the child is not Ethan's son before he let Simone know. He wanted to let Simone be the one to tell their daughter, Morgana, about it 

" Marcus??? Hey bro!!! What's got into you? Are you still with us? Brent who has been calling Marcus for the third time tap his shoulder and immediately brought him back to the current situation

" Oh, I'm sorry, I was just thinking about my daughter and my newborn grandchildren, the twins look exactly like their mom and dad even though still a newborn you can easily tell from their features that they got their looks from their parents"

Marcus said, lying through gritted teeth as he didn't want to offend his best friend, Glenard after all, Glenard is Ethan's father and he will surely believe everything that Ethan said

As for him, he wanted to believe Ethan as he is his son in law, he wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt as a father of Ethan's wife but even if that was the case, he will still try to find out if what Ethan said is true

Morgana is his daughter, and if it's true that Ethan cheated on her daughter because the other woman is also a beauty, it may happen again, especially now that Ethan knows that he has a son with that woman

They followed the Shairel in silence until they saw her enter a private ward for children with cancer cases. They saw Shairel wipe her tears before she enters the private ward for children

Glenard looks at Marcus and Brent before he stepped forward to follow Shairel when Brent and Marcus saw that, they followed Glenard in a hurry, and the three of them arrived outside the door of the private ward

When the three of them looked inside, they saw Shairel sitting on the edge of the hospital bed gazing at the frail looking boy lying on the bed

Glenard and Marcus hold their breath as the two of them look at the face of the child who resembles Ethan. The two of them were both speechless as their eyes never leave the face of the child

" Hey, are the two of you going to enter, or are you just going to stand here and stared at the child like an idiot? Brent who also notice the resemblance between Ethan and the child lying on the bed said breaking the awkward silence

Shairel who is holding her son's hand look up when she heard Brent and saw the three of them standing by the doorway 

" Oh, of course, we want to, " Glenard said as he turned his gaze on Shairel and asks;

" Is it okay if we come in? We want to talk to you about the child" Glenard said to Shairel asking for her permission as it would be impolite if they just barged in without asking Shairel first

When Shairel heard Marcus asking for her permission to enter the ward, she simply nodded her head and turn her attention back to her son

Seeing that Shairel nodded, the three of them enter the ward, Marcus followed Glenard and Brend inside and close the door behind him as he walked to the side of the hospital bed stiffly

Marcus gazed at the face of the child who closely resembles Ethan, from the eyes, nose, lips, and even the shape of the ears and brows were so alike, the child looks like the younger version of Ethan. The child is no doubt Ethan's son, there is no mistaking it

As Brent looks at the face of the child while waiting for Glenard to start the conversation with Shairel, he felt his buddy, Marcus, trembling from suppressing his anger. He is aware that Marcus is now in rage as he confirmed to himself that the child is indeed Ethan's son, it only means that Ethan cheated on Morgana even before they get married.

" Ahm, ahem, Aaah, Glenard, I think that the two of you have something important to talk about, why don't I and Marcus go and just wait for you at the nearby restaurant? I am quite hungry, I haven't eaten anything since this morning"

Brent makes up an excuse for him and Marcus to leave, as he didn't want his friend Marcus to make a scene and disturb the sleeping child

Glenard looks at Brent and felt guilty as he saw the suppressed anger in Marcus' eyes, he nodded his head pretending not to notice it, but deep inside, he is worried for his son, Ethan as he knows Marcus very well, it is unlikely that Marcus will keep it to himself and he will surely tell Simone and Morgana about Ethan having a son with another woman.

He is also sure that Ethan will receive a punch or two from Marcus, but for now, there is nothing he can do about it, as he needs to settle the problem with the child's mother and the child itself as he can see that the child is really sick and needed an immediate operation to save his life

" Bro, I know that you are mad, I am too, as Morgana is like a daughter to me, but you can't make a scene here, this is a hospital if you want to vent your anger, just do it later but first, you need to calm down 

I am going to talk to Glenard later and ask him to get a sample of the child's hair so that we can run a DNA test with it" Brent said trying to console his friend

" Do we really have to do that? Just look at the child obviously that child is Ethan's child!!! There is no doubt about it, Ethan cheated on my daughter the night of the bachelor party with that woman

They are not even married and he dares to cheat on my daughter? How can you be so sure that it will not happen again? They have a child, and now that she found Ethan and let him know that he had a child with her, do you think that she will stop pestering Ethan just like that?

And do you see the look on Glenard's face? He looks as if he was about to grab the child and announced to the world that he was his grandson!!! I don't blame Glenard and I understand him, but I am not just going to stand and watched them trampled on my daughter's dignity"

Marcus said angrily as he walked out of the hospital with his hands balled into a fist by his side. He is so angry that if he happens to see Ethan, he would surely give him a punch or two to vent his anger. He may even try to cripple him, to make him realize that making a fool out of his daughter is not her lost but his.

It's a good thing that, when they passed by the place where they left Ethan, Ethan is no longer there and is nowhere to be found, but it only makes Marcus's suspicion grow and his anger boiled up to a point that he was ready to explode

Seeing that Ethan is not in the spot where they left him, Brent shakes his head as he understands that it only makes Marcus mad and suspicious of him. By now, he is certain that Marcus is thinking that Ethan may have gone the other way and follow them to see the child.

It is possible that the moment that they left the private ward, Ethan is already outside waiting for them to leave so that he could sneak in to see the woman and his child

" Isn't it ironic? Brent thought to himself, all of them waited for more than three years for Ethan and Morgana to have children of their own and when the time has finally come, their twins have just born into this world and at the same time, Ethan and Glenard finds out that Ethan has a child with another woman

Marcus and Brent sigh one after another as both of them have the same thought at the moment, they are both thinking about the irony of the situation

" Come on, there is a restaurant over there, we can order some food and coffee to eat before we go back to Morgana's room I'm sure that Simone is already wondering why it takes us too long" Brent urge his friend Marcus pointing at the nearby restaurant just a few blocks away from them
