Defeating My Ex-Husband by Tracy Estrada ( Colton Zeller )

Chapter 51 Son Of A Relative 

By the time Cynthia arrived, Colton and the nurse were standing on either side of Lukas, who was hanging his head in silence. 

In the end, he was just a child. How could he possibly outrun both Colton and the nurse? 

He was caught even before he left the hospital. 

“Ms. Shelley, perfect timing. This gentleman…” The nurse glanced at Colton, puzzled by his presence. She couldn’t understand why he hadn’t. left even after she informed him that he could go. His persistence left her unsure of how to proceed. 

Cynthia clenched her fists tightly, yet managed to maintain a calm and composed expression on her face. 

“No problem. I know him.” Cynthia politely thanked the nurse for her care and then looked at Lukas. 

Nobody knew how her heart had skipped a beat when she heard Colton’s voice in the nurse’s background during the call and how she nearly threw her phone on the ground. It took all her everything to barely maintain her 

composure. 

She had practically raced to the hospital, and when she saw Lukas standing beside Colton, her legs went weak. 

“Is he your son?” Colton gazed deeply at Cynthia, his eyes filled with a mixture of emotions that were hard to decipher for Cynthia. 

“No.” 

Before Cynthia could answer, Lukas quickly ran over to her side, held her

hand, and responded, “I’m from her relative’s family.”

Colton raised his eyebrows. “Your relatives‘ kid?” 

Feeling the strength of Lukas‘ grip on her hand, Cynthia suddenly gained confidence. With a calm expression, she looked at Colton and asked, “What advice do you have, Mr. Zeller?” 

Colton continued studying her for a long time, and Cynthia calmly met his gaze. 

A moment later, Colton muttered, “If that’s the case, I suppose I’ve entrusted the child to you. Do you need me to arrange transportation for both of you?” 

As soon as these words were spoken, Cynthia quickly rejected him, “No need. My assistant is waiting for us.” 

Unexpectedly, Colton stopped her and said, “Coincidentally, my assistant just took my car. Would you mind giving me a ride?” 

He glanced meaningfully at Lukas, who was standing nearby Even if Cynthia was reluctant, she still had no choice but to agree to his request. 

Marcus was astonished when he drove up and saw Cotton #hy is he here? 

But since Cynthia didn’t express anything, he could only pretend not to know anything. 

When it was time to select a seat, Cynthia found herself once again caught in a dilemma. 

It was not feasible for Lukas to occupy the front passenger seat, and Colton would definitely be reluctant to take that seat as well. Cynthia couldn’t allow Colton and Lukas to be alone together, s8 she had no option but to squeeze into the back seat too.

After sitting down awkwardly, Cynthia looked at Colton and asked, “Where do 

you want to go, Mr. Zeller? We can drop you off first.” 

“Shouldn’t we send the child back first since he’s been missing for so

long?” Colton glanced at Lukas, who had turned timid ever since Cynthia appeared. However, Lukas kept his eyes fixed on the road ahead, not ever sparing a glance at him. 

Cynthia said coldly, “There’s no need for that. The boy is staying with me now.” 

As soon as she said this, the inquisitive look in Colton’s eyes became even more apparent, but he didn’t say anything. 

The silence continued all the way. 

Lukas nervously glanced at Cynthia, realizing that his seemingly flawless. plan had collided with his mother’s meeting with Colton, resulting in an unexpected commotion. 

Mommy must be really angry now, right? 

However, Colton was present, so Lukas didn’t dare to say much to Cynthia. However, Colton was present, so Lukas di He could only hold his tongue. 

On the way to Colton’s villa, before he even had a chance to speak, he saw the gentle and delicate Elsa standing at the door, “Colt” 

Upon realizing that Cynthia was the one who brought Colton back, Elsa’s expression changed. However, she knew she had to steady herself even more in the face of this unexpected situation. 

Approaching them with a bright smile, Elsa took Colton’s hand and said to Cynthia, “What a coincidence! Since you’re here to drop off Colt, why not join us for dinner? Susan just made my favorite chicken noodle soup. Your should give it a try too.”

Upon seeing Elsa’s unfazed demeanor, Cynthia couldn’t help but glance at Lukas subconsciously. 

Sure enough. Lukas‘ expression was tense. He did not even spare a single glance at Colton. 

“It’s fine. I have something else to do.” Cynthia grasped Lukas’s hand and gestured to Marcus. The car immediately sped away. 

It was only at that moment that Colton furrowed his brow and gazed at Elsa, asking. “What are you doing here?” 

Elsa lowered her gaze. “I’m scared to go back to my condominium alone. Can I stay here with you?” 

Colton’s brow furrowed slightly, but he didn’t refuse. “If you want to stay, then do so. 

Elsa was delighted; she hadn’t expected it to be this simple! 

“Thank you. Colt!” Elsa lunged forward and hugged Colton’s arm. “I knew you cared about me the most.” 

Colton casually responded with a hum, and continued, “You can just sleep in the guest room.” 

Elsa’s body stiffened, and she looked at Colton incredulously. “I’m sleeping in the guest room?” 

“Do you have any issues with that?” Colton raised his eyebrows. 

Of course Elsa did. Despite her initiation, Colton was still… 

“No way.” Elsa forced a smile. “Then I’ll choose a room closest to you, Colt.”

Colton had no objections to that and turned to enter the villa. 

Meanwhile, Lukas was quiet for a long time. His silence lasted until Marcus dropped them off at the entrance of the kindergarten. 

At this point, the head of the kindergarten was already frantic. She had all the kindergarten teachers searching for Lukas, unable to believe that a child could just vanish into thin air. 

Upon seeing Cynthia unexpectedly bring Lukas in from outside the kindergarten, they were stunned. 

“Lukas, you…” 

Before the head of the kindergarten could continue speaking, Lukas took the initiative to step forward and bowed deeply to the head of the kindergarten. “I’m sorry, Ms. Patricia. I sneaked out and worried you.” 

The head of the kindergarten stared at Lukas in disbelief for a moment. before crouching down and speaking with a serious tone, “Did you sneak out? That’s not acceptable. Do you know how many teachers were worried about you and searching for you? Besides, it’s extremely dangerous. outside the kindergarten. What if someone tried to harm you?” 

Lukas’s head hung even lower. 

Right then, Luna rushed forward and embraced Lukas tightly. 

“It’s such a relief that you’re alright!” Luna exclaimed. When she noticed Lukas‘ disheartened state, she whispered, “What’s the matter?” 

After a brief moment of silence, Lukas decided to say nothing about what happened. 

Cynthia offered an apologetic smile to the head of the kindergarten. “I’m sorry, Ms. Patricia. I will definitely talk to the kids to ensure that such an

incident won’t happen again.” 

After leaving the kindergarten and returning home, Cynthia frowned at them and asked, “Whose idea was it today?” 

Luna lowered her head, took two small steps forward, and said, “It was mine.” 

“No, it was mine!” Lukas became anxious and quickly approached Cynthia to apologize. “Luna just thought about it, but I was the one who did it all.“
