Shocking news
Shania and Christian spent a few days in London and then returned home. When they were certain Kevin was okay. A whole week felt like a vacation. She was irritated at how nice Christian was. He tried certainly to be a good man and more romantic. He took her to movies and had long drives
Even if she hated him, Shania had the best times. Christian was a man who had traveled to different places. He knew the city like the back of his hand. Took her to pleasant restaurants, all he acted like a gentleman. It was late at night when the jet landed. Shania was exhausted
She had slept, eaten her favorite food and woken up.
“It's rather cold, keep this on,” Christian muttered and draped a coat around Shania's shoulders.
“Thanks,” she muttered and kept her distance, as expected, Travis came to pick them up
“What's up, Travis… I guess you had fun huh” Shania said to Travis as soon as they exited the jet. The pilot and the lady attending to her dragged their luggage to the car
“Hello, madam, welcome,” Travis said shyly and Shania chuckled and proceeded to the car. Christian was busy with his phone to mind Shania and Travis cracking dry jokes
“Welcome sir,” Travis said to Christian with a bow. Christian only nodded and entered the back seat of the car. Shania was already seated.
“Ha, it's nice to be home… I feel so warm and happy,” Shania said dramatically and hugged herself, Christian frowned as he glanced at her.
“Are you telling me you didn't have fun?” He asked, arching his brows at her. Shania nodded with a smirk, making Christian frown even more. He averted his eyes and continued what he was doing. Shania giggled silently and winded down the windows. The night was beautiful,
So serene and cold. As the car started moving, Shania focused on watching the stars. She wondered if she was going back to Danny's club
But first, she wanted to know everything about Christian, he seemed like a calm man. She thought he was just a playboy who used women. But something about that club he owned made Shania see him in a new light
While Danny made women strip naked for men. Christian made men strip for women.
Maybe he was just pretending, he broke off his engagement all because he found another woman. What would stop him from breaking another one once he found another beautiful woman
All these gave Shania a red light, men were complicated creatures, and even women were better
“Are you going to think about me here or should I leave you here?” Christian's voice brought her back to her senses, she glanced at him with confused eyes when she noticed they arrived
“I wasn't thinking about you” she scoffed and elbowed him and attempted to open the door when he stopped her. Christian's lips quivered upwards in amusement and stepped out of the car. They arrived home, she guessed everyone was inside
“Thanks, Trav,” Christian said when Travis was about to open Shania's door, but he beat her to it.
“Sweetheart, I'm the only man who gets you to lose your mind…it is too hard to admit,” Christian whispered as he extended his hand Shania took it, and he pulled her out of the car. It was unbelievable how Christian did the little things
“Mr. Kingston… you are a dickhead,” she scoffed disdainfully and Christian frowned
“Mr. Kingston is my father… Ace is better…or just call me baby,” Christian murmured mischievously and hooked his a with Shania's arm…she tried to shove him away, knowing they were back home. But Christian trapped her as he led her to the entrance. All Shania wanted was to sleep.
“Let go” she finally managed to keep him away and Christian complied, she was probably afraid. As soon as they reached the entrance, Christian was about to open the door when it opened from inside
“Welcome guys!” It was Rose who shouted as soon as the door opened and popped some confetti in the air, surprising Shania who was startled and nearly fell, but Christian caught her in time
“Flower, what's all this?” Christian asked his little sister who was busy blowing whistles and scattering confetti all over
“What bro, I just came to welcome you…we missed you…sis come,” Rose said cheerfully and elbowed Christian then grabbed Shania's hand and dragged her down the hallway leading to the living room
“How are you?” Shania asked Rose, she was her little sister. But it somehow felt awkward,
“Mom made the chef prepare a lot of food…for you and Ace…we missed having you around,” Rose said happily and dragged her to the living room. Shania smiled helplessly and was stunned to find the family sitting in the living room. One of them was a blonde lady
“Ha, finally, you came back,” Madeline was the first one to get up from the couch and rushed to hug Shania" I missed you so much baby,” Madeline said as she caged Shania in her arms and planted a kiss on her shoulder. Shania wasn't used to this; hence she waited for her mom to be done
“Thanks, how are you?” Shania said and nodded at George and the blonde woman. She looked familiar as soon as Christian came in. She flung herself off the couch like someone who had just got bitten by a bug.
“Chris, finally you are back!” The lady shouted happily and threw herself in Christian's arms. Shania was surprised as she stared at the two
“Hey Ash…um,” Christian whispered and pried the lady off him
“Come on Ace, is this how you welcome me after you did,” the woman said with a frown. Shania stared at her petite form, she wasn't fat or medium but slim like a model, she did have a back side, but her figure was quite like an hourglass. With her blonde hair and a heart-shaped face, Shania saw a famous model
“Chris, settle down… Ashley came to visit us,” Madeline said with a smile, and Shania realized who the lady was. She was the same woman who was supposed to get married to Christian,
“Why is she here?” Christian asked, he sounded rather irritated as he stared at Ashley. George and Madeline exchanged questionable glances
“Chris, you broke the engagement without a reason… your mother and I had a word with Ashley's parents,” George said with a smile and Madeline chimed in
“We decided to let the wedding happen… you and Ashley will get married just like we planned,” Madeline said turning to Christian, and he loved as if someone had dumped a bucket of ice water on his head. Even Shania was stunned by this. Especially how Ashley was giggling and touching Christian. The entire family seemed happy about this. This was shocking, Shania was dumbstruck.
