BXBX NOVEL Chapter 93 - This Is Quick!
Cooper released a deep sigh. "I'm so sorry, Father. Please forgive me!" he asked again and again.
Sir Nicholas sighed. "Stop asking my forgiveness over and over again. I have already forgiven you," he replied.
"Thank you so much, Father!" Cooper said. Tears of relief shone in his eyes.
"Now my next question is... who among the two women you are going to marry for real? Is it Sarah or Laura?" Sir Nicholas asked.
Cooper's eyes widened in surprise. "F-Father...what do you mean?"
"You promised Sarah to marry her before. If you marry her now, I won't object. After all, you have two children together. It is important for the children to have complete parents to guide and nurture them in their growing up years," Sir Nicholas explained.
Cooper was stunned by his father's question. He seemed confused for a moment. He scratches his head, feeling conflicted. Then he smiled. "Of course, I will choose Laura!" he said.
Sir Nicholas's brows furrowed. "Huh? Why-? I thought you are going to chose Sarah? You don't want to raise a happy family with her? All you need to do is marry her, and you will have a complete family."
Cooper sighed. "I like Sarah too, but I love Laura the more. I'm thankful that you already accepted Sarah, just in case Laura can't bear a child, you already had grandchildren," he explained.
Sir Nicholas was about to get angry at his son but after hearing his reason, he calmed down a bit, because he got a valid point. Not all women can bear children. "So, you had chosen Laura over Sarah. but why?"
Cooper took a deep breath. "Because I want to obey and respect your order, Father."
"But I'm no longer ordering you to marry Laura. I already give you the freedom to chose. Why do you still choose Laura over Sarah, who is the mother of your children?"
"I no longer love, Sarah. I love Laura the most," Cooper answered.
Sir Nicholas sighed. "But what if I will inform Laura that you already fathered two children before you met her? And what will you do if she changes her mind and no longer marries you after she learned the truth?"
Cooper's face registered alarm and worries. "Father, please... don't tell Laura about Sarah and my children! I want Laura to be my wife. I want to get married in the church with her!" he pleaded.
Sir Nicholas sighed.
Graven was listening silently to their conversation with a blank face.
"So, what is your plan about Sarah and the kids?" Sir Nicholas asks.
Cooper breathed deeply. "I'll respect whatever plan and decision you had for them, Father," Cooper answered wisely. "All I wanted is to see my children whenever I want," he said.
"And how about Sarah? What is going to happen with your relationship with her?" Sir Nicholas asked.
Cooper grinned. "Father, with both women, I can give you one dozen children in just six years!" he joked.
Sir Nicholas stared at his son in disbelief and anger. "Bastard!" he glared at him wanting to punch him in the face.
"Calm down, Father. It's not worth it," Graven holds his father's hands that was forming into a fist.
Cooper was alarmed when his father didn't get his joke. "I'm sorry, Father, I'm just joking! Please forgive me!" he said.
"Get your hands off from Sarah! She suffered enough from your hands. Give her some kind of dignity! You owe her one! Do you understand, Cooper?" he said furiously.
"Yes...Yes...Yes...Father! I will obey your command," Cooper said.
Sir Nicholas took a deep breath. His womanizer son has no sense of guilt and remorse in his heart. He can't believe he was blessed with a son like him. He's hoping that Nicholas and Nikka grow up as a responsible individual and not inherit their father's rotten attitude.
"Get back in the house and bond with your children for one hour. We will wait here until you're done bonding with the kids! Go now before I will punch your face!" Sir Nicholas glared at Cooper.
Cooper rose to his feet. "Thank you, Father!" he said and left the veranda, going back to the house.
Sir Nicholas watched his son entered the house. His head was shaking in annoyance.
Graven's mouth twitched in displeasure.
Sir Nicholas looked at him. "Should we inform Laura about Sarah and the kids? I'm afraid that sooner or later, she will discover about them. I don't want their marriage to get affected by this. Sometimes telling your secret early to your partner can prevent misunderstanding later," he said.
Graven breathed deeply. He understood very well the trouble that his father was facing right now. He must be having a hard time trying to balance everything. So far, he is more biased toward his son's happiness than Laura. Cooper won't let go of Laura easily. But he doubted if his brother can let go of Sarah since they have a strong foundation already.
"Informing Laura about Cooper's secret family before the wedding takes place is the best thing to do, Father. But it's up to you and Cooper. I don't want to interfere in this matter. I don't want to add to your problems. The decision must come both from you and Cooper," Graven said.
Sir Nicholas sighed.
Graven saw the maid trimming plants nearby. "Can you bring a glass of water for my father?" he ordered.
"Okay, Sir. I'll go to the kitchen and get a glass of water," the maid replied. She put the cutting scissors in the ground and went to the house.
A few minutes later, the maid returned, carrying a tray with a pitcher of fresh cold lemonade and glasses. She put the pitcher and glass on the table and went back to the house.
Graven poured lemonade juice into the glass and gave it to his father. "Drink some lemonade, Father," he offered.
"Thank you, son," Sir Nicholas said and sipped from the glass.

Meanwhile, inside the house.
Cooper was playing with his son Nicholas in the master's bedroom with his plastic toys, while Sarah was putting baby Nikka to sleep.
After her daughter falls asleep, Sarah put baby Nikka in the bed and barricaded her sided with pillows to prevent her from falling into the floor.
Cooper was looking at Sarah's bottom lustfully. He had no sex for a long time. He's suddenly feeling aroused watching Sarah's full breast right now. His erection went hard inside his underwear. He licked his lips, looking at Sarah's desirable body, wanting to bang her.
He put his son on the floor and give him a toy to play with. He rose to his feet and walked to the floor, locking it from the inside so that no one can enter. He went to bed and grabbed Sarah's hand and dragged her forcibly to the toilet.
"Get your hands off me!" Sarah shouted at him.
"Shhh... keep your voice down...you don't want to wake up our daughter, right?" he said.
Sarah still refused to settle inside the toilet.
"Come here!" Cooper was getting irritated with her playing hard to get attitude. He yanked her body and successfully trapped her inside the toilet. He locked the door inside. "Don't worry - it won't take long. It will be quick!" he said.
"Let me go! You bastard!" Sarah was trying to get him out of the door but he was blocking her way while hid hand was grasping at the zipper of his pants.
The moment Cooper freed his erection, he grabbed Sarah's underwear under her skirt and pulled it down her legs, and rammed his erection inside her.
Sarah closed her eyes in defeat. She can no longer escape him. Tears rolled down her face.
Fifteen minutes later, Cooper was finished with his sexual cravings, his lust was fully sated. He planted a kiss on Sarah's temple. "You're always good, sweetheart!" he whispered. After putting back his pants, he left the toilet.
Sarah cleaned her lower body before exiting the toilet.
When she left the bathroom, Cooper was no longer inside the bedroom. He was gone!
She released a sigh of relief.
...
Cooper went downstairs in good spirit, no longer bothering to say goodbye to Sarah. He plans to keep doing the things he enjoyed the most with Sarah every time he visits the kids.
He approached the veranda. "I'm ready to go home, Father," he said.
"Sarah and I had an agreement that you can visit the children anytime you want. Just don't force yourself on her again, don't use her! Pity the poor woman," Sir Nicholas reminded him in a gentle voice.
Cooper nodded his head. "Yes, Father. I shall remember your words," he responded. He's not feeling guilty at all. Why would he deny himself with Sarah? Now that it's no longer a secret, he can come freely to this house and do whatever he wants with Sarah. That girl will never object to his demand, now that she was living in a grand house and well supported by his father.
The men walked towards the carriage and left the property.
Sarah stood by the window, watching the carriage leaving her property, sporting a sad look on her face. Her hands were forming into a fist on her sides.
Suddenly, she heard her daughter Nikka's cries. She left the window and went back to bed, picking up her baby daughter in her arms. Fresh tears rolled down her face.
She's not utterly hopeless yet!
