Chapter 213 Holy cow!
Brightâs mom didnât sugarcoat her disapproval for me. Her changed behavior for her son was a bit relaxing as she said, I know my son, he will never let us down. Itâs all because of Laura. She is the ason for this issue.â
She used some mean words for ine, exhausting Brightâs patience. He proteste âWhy is it Lauraâs fault, mom?
Is she a bad woman because she didnât accept your money or got back with he ex as you said to me? At least, she doesnât lie about significant matters like you.â
You are calling me a liar7â Mrs. Wilsonâs shocked squeal resonated in the room. âIs that what she is trying to do? Creating a rift between a mother and her son?
How can you love a woman who has zero respect for us?â
In a short period, the living room became a battleground, erupting chaos in a peaceful environment. Brightâs parents left angrily, putting a damper on my soul. My dreams of solving all the problems in one setting were crushed after the meetingâs brawl.
I came out of the room to comfort Bright as he held his head and sat down helplessly.
âI thought that it was all over. But mom www He was also expecting to end the fight; however, the situation wasnât in our favor. I placed my hand on his shoulder and spoke softly, âYou are forgetting your achievement today due to this trivial setback. Isnât it great that you are no longer engaged to Sienna?
You were able to persuade Mr. and Mrs. Lockwood for a smooth breakâup. I think itâs pretty cool.â
Brightâs visibly taut were soothed by the reminder of his historical success. So proceeded to encourage him.
âYou have tested the waters today. Now, it will be convenient for you to move on to the next part of the plan. Rome wasnât built in one day, so donât lose hope and focus on good things.â
He breathed in deeply and rested his head on my shoulder, âThanks for sticking by my side, Laura. I donât know what to do without you.â
âOh, really?â I caressed his cheek and pinched it playfully, âWho was the one speaking bravely in front of his parents just now? It takes guts to stand up for what you truly believe, Bright.â
Bright laughed, relieving my worry, I asked him to be careful in the future.
âSee, your mom is hesitant to accept me because of my past. Can you please talk to her one more time about our marriage? If you try to be transparent with her, I am certain that she will agree for our relationship.â
Bright wasnât keen on meeting his mom again, but I talked him into it. He promised to bring up this topic soon. One other strange thing happened in the following days that Mrs. Wilson started paying attention to her son like before. Her daily messages about his routine and health were like a new sunrise after a long, dark night.
My fiancéâs mood also improved by this care; he was happy to have a normal relation with his parents once again. This small step forward urged him to discuss our union, so he talked to his dad first.
But instead of supporting his son, Mr. Wilson gave him a diplomatic response, like a true family man.
âWhatever your mom says goes, Bright. If she hasnât any issues, then I am glad to welcome Laura into our family.â
After some back and forth, it came down to my soonâtoâbe motherâinâlawâs approval, leaving no room for discussion. Bright couldnât relax with th issue hanging over him, so my little angels came up with an idea to cheer him up. They couldnât see their daddy in distress.
âAre you free in the evening, daddy? Letâs play together.â

Daddyâs princess called Bright, fixing a play date with no trouble. He arrived my villa to see a full fledged party in the playroom Zoe spake gleefully.
âDaddy, we got a project from our school. Will you help us, pleaserâ
The colors, charts, and photo albums on the table confused Bright. He asked them.
Is it a drawing project? Or a history assignment?â
The presence of my kidsâ childhood photos was raising questions over a simple activity, so I explained to him.
âTheir teacher has given them a task of preparing their family tree with the pictures of happy moments since birth. So, Jane and Zoe have gathered all the supplies before your arrival.â
Bright was pleasantly surprised to hear about this project. He removed his co and sat down with kids to arrange their family books. Unlike Zoe, Jane had one album each for her every year, I had meticulously recorded every moment of her life to cherish her memories.
Leo, who claimed to be the best father in the world, disregarded our sonâs precious moments. It was fortunate that Zoeâs album had his birthday pics for the assignment. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing for him to paste the recent pictures with me in his book.
âMommy, is he our grandpa?â Jane glanced at my dadâs picture and questioned her curiosity was justified as she had never met him before. Suppressing the ache in my chest, I smiled forcibly in response.
âYes, my little girl. He is your grandpa. He is an influential businessman.â
As I knew that her next query would be about meeting him, I made an excuse He mostly lives abroad for work. Itâs difficult for him to spare time for others âJust like dad.â Zoe sighed, pitifully complaining about Leo, âDad missed my third birthday party despite living in the same house.
He wished me next day.â
My princeâs gloomy tone cut through my heart; I stroked his head lovingly.
âNo worries, Zoe. Weâll arrange a grand birthday party for you this year. Thereâll be a lot of gifts for you.â
