Contract Marriage With My Ex — Chapter 28. Blissfully amazing…

Raven’s point of view….

“I might get late today so you stay back with my mom and Billy.” We were driving to my parent’s house. Luckily there was not much traffic at this time as compared to the other days.

I placed my hand on Kiara’s thigh giving it a light squeeze that she turned to see me with a smile. She has been off these days not talking much or throwing her tantrums on me like she did in the first month of our marriage. We celebrated our two months anniversary three days ago and ever since then I have realized that she has cut herself from talking to me openly!

Uhh, may be because this is a new phase of our life. I think I am over thinking. It is still very difficult to accept reality, and I am glad Kiara is doing it better than any other women who is married to her ex after going through a lot of mess!

“Raven I… I am not feeling good.” I scrunched my brows at her statement. Yes, I could see that with my eyes that she was not well and I wish she tells me what is bothering her.

We reached there a minute after she confessed her feelings to me. Pulling the brakes I unlatched my seat belt sitting across. Leaning in the front, I brought her hands in mine kissing them assuringly. “What is it that is bothering you, hmm!” I joined our foreheads pecking her cheek.

She seemingly smiled at my action with a blush. Now that is like my Kiara, who blushes on everything I do. “I don’t know. Uhh! May be it's Billy and his custody! Raven I have developed a motherly bond with him. I can’t bear to lose him now. I love him. I don’t want to see him cry again like that day!” I agree, my son has grown closer to her.

He can’t eat without having her sit next to him. Billy have more attachment with her than me or anyone in my family. I fear if she ever leaves me, what will I do with my kid. He refuses to eat without her, he cries for her presence. I cannot stand to even experience that ever. It will be the last thing I can ever imagine!

“Don’t worry we will have Billy to ourselves. The guards have agreed to speak in our interest. They have seen how Billy reacts around her. She had almost ripped him!” I said caressing her knuckles.

I would not have said that earlier until she came and gave me the motivation. When she is with me I know it will surely happen. “Okay now in or else you know what you will call upon you!” Kiara chuckled recognizing the last Friday’s scene.

We just happened to be an hour late and Billy didn’t talk to her. He threw his tantrums on everyone until Kiara held him in a hug kissing him as long as he wanted her to himself. “ Bye. Take care and be back soon!” she kissed me on the cheek opening the door to go out.

We waved each other with  flying kisses, and she walked in the house while I pulled the gear to take my journey toward my office.

In the evening, It was tiring but I felt good. I like to work with my supportive and dedicated employees. It was time to leave. I gathered my stuff while wearing my coat at the same time. I shuffled through some emails on my laptop and there came a knock on the door, as I looked at up from my phone, “Ohh Girard.” I smiled at him. “Interesting! You never knocked before walking in, why so much change all of a sudden!” I added further only to get a ‘are you kidding me’ look in reply.

He sat on the chair in the front replying verbally, “Is it necessary brother, how can I just not knock when I know my baby brother is married, and he can be busy anytime with his wife!” I can’t suppress the urge of throwing the paperweight on him. I have noticed how frequently he is teasing me nowadays.

Nonetheless, his naughty smile swiftly transformed into a serious face, I sat my ass on my chair watching him thoroughly as he spoke, “Rave, I met my advocate today, and we had serious conversation regarding the custody case.” He leaned in placing his arms on the desk in front whilst continuing, “He said we did play a good part by getting you married to Kiara and—” Okay, it was good if I am not wrong yet the expression he passed me gave me chills.

Girard is not someone who likes to beat around the bush. He is straight forward with a damn giving nature. Having him speak such seriously, I held my breaths waiting for him to continue. “And what? Continue. I want to know further Gerry.” When he refused to talk I took the moment to request him.

He was more serious than me regarding this case. It was Girard first who learned Shania’s motives and even, she had tried to get intimate with him in my absence. It became one of his reasons to not let her affect me or my family at all. “And he said we have hundred percent chances of winning this case!!!!” He shouted amusingly raising his hands in the air.

What the heck!!!

He almost killed me with his nonsensical prank. Damn it. Who scares his brother like this! I left my seat in rage. On reaching his side I playfully hit him, slapped him on the arm while he laughed loudly increasingly irritating me. “You homicidal bitch… You killed my mood! Who does that to their younger brother.”

“Who can do that other than me!” he replied covering his head to protect him. “But trust me Rave I was more depressed than you. Can you believe how did I live my life with the feeling of losing Billy! It indirectly means, losing you!” He rose ruffling my hairs.

Told you, he is more into my son than me. He will die but won’t let anyone take him away from us. “Thank Kiara. She built your ruining hope back into a palace where you are living now happily. Dude she is just perfect for you. Don’t hurt her ever again.” We hugged each other for a good time.

Now it is not only his wish alone, I have also decided that I will do anything but never ever hurt her. It is my resolution for a new good life she gifted me.” Come on let’s go” With his arm around me we walked together out of the exit talking casually, “ By the way did I tell you that your son called and asked me to buy him a peesha (pizza)”

Tbc…
