CHAPTER 49: Finally Home

DARREN’s P.O.V.

I looked at Claire, who is now nervously staring at her reflection on the mirror. I almost laugh as she trembles when my hands touches her shoulders.

“Hey...” I greeted her, trying to suppress my laughter.

“You startled me!” she complained.

“Sorry, wife. Just, don’t be nervous, okay? Dad will be the one who supposed to be surprised so please, stop worrying now,” I assured her.

“Okay... I just... What if... What if he doesn’t like Cloey? Or what if... He’ll be mad because you didn’t come home for over half a year here...”

“That wouldn’t happen. Everyone loves Cloey. And hey, I promised to him never to come back here if I still haven’t got you yet... So I’m sure he will be glad to see you... With a bonus, of course. A grandchild he’s been waiting for.”

“Okay, okay. I can do this,” she smiled towards me.

“Of course you can.”

I smiled when she took a deep breath before glancing towards my direction again.
