Chapter 66: Chapter 66
Samantha's POV.
"She looks really angry". I said to him, changing the topic, from what he was saying, but he still found a way to go back to the same discussion.
"I am asking, if we should tell them that we are getting married by morning, and you are talking about Sandra? He sounded more like a boss, that the man giving me orgasm a while ago.
"Sure, we could". I had to agree, so he pulls me close, held my hand then walk me to the table, and started in a calm and calculative tone.
"Whitney dear, we would like you and Mary to know, that your mother and I are going to the registry tomorrow". He paused to see if she was getting the message, but she kind of looked confused a bit, while Mary was beaming with smiles.
"What do you do at a registry? She asked, after looking around her and concluding that she is the only lost one there, and sounding like her age, innocent and inquisitive.
"You register your relationship". He answered, and it sounded funny to me, that I just had to break it down to the language, she would understand.
"Uncle Craig and I are getting married tomorrow, it is not going to be loud, very simple wedding, with only the family members". I thought it would be easier that way, but I never thought she would ask more questions.
She seem to have always wanted us to be together, so she was expected to just jump at the news, but I was wrong, she had more questions.
"But mum, I thought you said Uncle Craig was your student, do you Marry your student? I was shocked at her question, and was dumbfounded for a while, before clearing my voice, but still couldn't find the right words to explain to her. Craig bent down to be below her, so she looks down to him.
"Whitney dear, I used to be your mummy's student, and then, I couldn't marry her, even though I was madly in love with her, because she was married to your daddy, and I was only a teenager, but now that I am an adult, and we found each other again, I want to marry her now, because now, all the things stopping me from marrying her then, is out of the way. Like now, I am an adult, and now, your mum is single". He explains, searching her face for more confusion or clarification.
I was worried, she would have more questions, but then she innocently asked only one question.
"Does that mean, I get to call you daddy now? Craig nodded his head, and she slowly widened her lips apart for a big smile, before falling into his arms.
I have been longing to call you daddy, and now, I really can call you daddy". She says, as Craig lifted her up and swings her around.
The rest of the evening was channelled to celebration and more questions from Whitney, that I didn't get any chance to be with Craig.
"I am so happy I am never leaving again". I heard her say, while I sat close to Mary, who was expressing how happy she is for me.
"Yes you are going nowhere, I am here for you, and I will take very good care of you".
He says to her, but she didn't still stop there, she seems to have more information for him.
" While we were away in the country side, mother was so sad, I was worried for her, I tried to take care of her, just the way you asked me to, but she was always sad, nothing I do, make her happy". She says, and I turned briskly to look at her, but my eye was met with that of Craig.
"Why do you think she was sad? He asked her.
" I think she misses you as much as I miss you, but she was just too angry with you, to admit, but now, we can be a family". She says and fell into his arms again.
Craig started whispering into her ears, telling her things I couldn't hear, she would laugh out loud and he would tickle her at some point. I would have been jealous, but I was happy, she was happy.
After a while, she had stared dozing off, Craig took her to her room, and I could hear him singing to her, and he only left her to sleep, after he was sure, she had slept. When he shut her door, I was standing outside, waiting for him.
"She is a great kid you know". He says and I nodded, but I was worried about what she had said earlier, that I brought it up again.
"I didn't know she was struggling to make me happy". I said, worried that somehow, I must have made my child sad, while wallowing in my own sadness.
"That is all in the past now, I am here, and we can both be happy, so that people around us, can also be happy. If my grandparents tell you how sad I was too, and the effort they put to making me happy, which didn't work, but that is all in the past now, we have eachother, and tomorrow we will cement our relationship in marriage, and we could be happy forever". He was so bold and encouraging, that only one look at him, is enough to tell me that I couldn't love him less.
"One more thing". I said, and he turned to look at me, worried that I am about to ask for something he might probably not like.
"What is it?
"If I must work at the Apple empire, I will like that we are kept secret, I will like people to relate with me well, and freely". I said to him and he shook his head, disagreeing, which was expected of him.
"You are pregnant, they know we don't accept pregnant women or nursing women at the company, so to have you there, they will know you are special". He answered, but I still insisted that the staff members don't know my identity as his wife, so they could be free with me. When he saw that I didn't want to give up on the quest, he had no choice than to accept.
But you are still working as my PA". He says and I nodded, then with his hands stretched towards me, I collected his, and he led me to the room, helped me undress, took me to the bathroom and helped me with a warm bath, which was just what I needed at that time, he led me back to the room, and after massaging my feet, we started working, where he exposed me to a few things I should know about the company. Clearly, Apple was so much different from Winlowtech, from what he was explaining.
It was a long lecture, which was boring for me, for I wanted to hold him, kiss him and get intimate with him, since the next day is going to be our wedding, but he was too serious with his lecture, that I didn't want to look like the unserious one.
When we were finally tired, or when he felt he had exhausted what he had in his plate, he kissed my forehead, and led me to bed, while he continued working. I wanted so much to tell him that I wanted him close to me, but he seem too busy that I had to sleep. I needed the sleep, the next day, he would be my husband. The feeling of being Mrs Craig Anderson was enough satisfaction for me, that when I finally gave in to mother nature, I didn't know.
