CHAPTER 37
LUCA’S POVI want to say I'm shocked but I always did know Emberlynn was spoilt and I didn’t build love for her to be bothered by what she said but once again she and her dad put me under them.“I'm so sorry babe, I really didn’t mean it, I was just pissed you were pouring out your anger on me all of a sudden, I didn’t even know about all these before_”, she starts to say, I turn to her and put on the fakest smile I can muster.“I forgive you”, she looks extremely shocked, and well I really didn’t want to drag this baseless topic, as long as she is making it to the top, when we get married, she can give it to me, simple.With that thought I move forward and hold her face in my hands, “I really do, we are both stressed and it’s neither of our faults, so yes babe I forgive you and in the light of that let me buy you dinner to celebrate your good news”, I say with a smile.&Related chapters
