Veronica”s POV ( Eric’s mom)
When Eric told me that Claire have decided to announce their marriage publicly
I was soooo happy
I can see that Eric is doing a great job in helping Claire to forget about her problems and revenge
I’ve always believed that a persons wrong doing will judge him |her
I sยฃnt someone to spy on Jeremy and Kira
And I know that they are quarreling
The wicked will never flourish

I’ve decided to tell Claire about Eric’s secret after the p@rty ๐

Just like their mom and dad
The door opened,
I looked back only to see Eric carrying Claire
Good evening mom ” they’re greeted im unison

My son really made a right choice, seeing him happy together with Claire makes me happy
I really hope that it last

I looked at Eric and saw his piercing gaze
Claire, Eric’s eyes ๐ is going to kill us if I don’t give you to him ” I whispered in her ear
I will really love to see the look his face if I decide to go home with you ” she also whispered
Are you ma-king progress in giving me grand children?? ” I whispered again but this time her face turned red,
She looked at Eric and shook her head
Why โ am not getting younger, so I want to see my grand children sooner
Mom stยฉp teasing her, I am not re-ady to share her with anybยฉdy, not even my child ” Eric said Trying to cover up for her

Chapter twenty three ๐
Eric’s POV
After discussing with mom
I carried Claire to the room and gently la-id her on the be-d ๐
“Claire I want to ask a question, plea-se answer truthfully
“Okay ๐ I will ”
“If Jeremy comes back and ask for your forgiveness, will you forgive him?? ” I asked
She stared at me for a while and pinched my cheeks pla-yfully
“Crazy husband, why will I leave you for that sยขv-mbag? I will always be with you and I will never leave you ” she said
I smiled ๐ and hvgged her
So sweetheart, when will I get my good night k!ss๐?? ”
“Well you will get it once it is 10:00pm, pray that I don’t sleep before that time ”
If you sleep, then I will have to steal it from you or I may even take more than a k!ss” I said and win-ked at her
I want to freshen up, wait for me because even the devil ๐ himself will not save you from me tonight ” I said and entered the washroom
In order to tease her I spent alot of time in the bathtub ๐.
I c@mยฃ out from the washroom longing to see ๐ her anxious face
But I was disappointed ๐ when I saw that the room was empty
I hurriedly put on my pajamas and ran out
I searched for her but I can’t find her
I searched every room and every corner but I can’t find a trace of her anywhere
I scratched my hair as fear engulfed me
Did someone kidnap her?
But thats not possible, my security is ti-ght
My last option is the garden
If she’s not there then I’ll have to call the police
On reaching to the garden I saw her sitting down on the gras-s counting the star’s ๐ ๐ with her eyes ๐
I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw her.
Calm down Eric nobยฉdy is going to take her away ” my inner conscience mocked
Without w@!sting time I sat beside her
What took you so long? She asked with her gaze still glued at the stars ๐
You wanted to tease me right?? Well too bad, I out smarted you
(Looks like she caught me, clever girl)
Jeremy will be at the p@rty next week, are you sure that you’ll be okay?? I asked and she flashed a warm smile ๐
(Gosh this smile is enough for a man to kneel for her.)
Of course, I’ve alre-ady forgotten him ” she said and gave me an as-suring look
She slowly leaned on me and closed her eyes
“Claire”
“Hmm mm”
Don’t sleep ”
Why โ ”
I just want to watch the star’s ๐ with me ” I said and she opened her eyes
After everything that happened, if someone told me that I will be in this position with you, I will say that the person is joking, alot have happened lately ”
Eric I have a two question to ask “she said and looked at me
If I answer truthfully what will be my reward? ”
Well I will do anything you want “she said and looked up
Are you sure that you’ll do anything I want?? ”
Yes”
Okay then ask”I said and she cleared her throat
What will you do if I change my mind and go back to Jeremy ?? ” she asked and I thought for a while
If you leave me I will fight ha-rd to earn you back, if possible I will fly for you and chase you until I hunt you down, do you know why?? I asked and she shook her head
Because you are my angel ๐, my one and only angel ” I answered and she smiled
(Gosh this smile is killing)
The last question, God told Abr@ham that his children will be uncountable just like the star’s, if you were in his shoe what would you have done? M” she asked
After three minutes of thinking, I spoke up
Well I don’t know how I will feel but as long as am having the uncountable children with you I will be more than happy to accept the task ” I said and win-ked at her
Oh ๐ OK”
As for my reward for answering truthfully, I want you to sing for me”I requested
OK I will sing for you if you promise to sing for me return ” she suggested and I nodded
I just want to her her voice.
