Chapter 298
CLILY’S POV
The banging of the front door had me looking up to see who was entering. A warm content smile lit up my face as my husband entered through the door.
I studied his exhausted face, he’s been working a lot lately. He hasn’t been having a good night’s rest, nnt since he took over his dad’s company while doing online schooling.
He loosened the gray tie around his neck and let out an exhausted sigh. Even with a tired face, he always seemed to be handsome to me. He began walking towards me with a grin on his lips when he saw that I was cooking.
I brought my attention back to the meal I was currently preparing when I felt his hands slither around my waist tenderly turned towards him to give himm a peck.
“I miss you baby.” He mumbled against my lips.
“I miss you too, babe. How was work?” I asked and returned my attention to the pasta.
“Ugh, tiring. Glad to come back home to my family.” He groaned and kissed my cheek. I gave out a little giggle as he feathered kisses on the dicklish spot on my neck.
“Where’s my other baby?” He asked and detached himself from me to grab a bottle of water from the fridge and gobbled it down.
“She’s currently sleeping in her room, should wake up soon because somehow she knows when her daddy is home.” I laughed. He smiled tenderly and gave off a soft laugh.
“Asher, do you know exactly what time your dad will be arriving?” I asked him as I turned off the stove. His dad was supposed to be having dinner with us tonight.
He shrugged. “Probably about five. Don’t stress, babe, take your time.” Asher’s dad always comes to visit us at least three times a week, it’s understandable since he lives alone now and likes to spend time with his granddaughter. He had grown fond of me, without his wife’s manipulation.
After the police officers took Margaret to a mental institution that night two years ago, he hadn’t been the same. They are now divorced and we all are happy for him, he deserves to be happy and not have a leech on his back twenty–four, seven.
Shelly, though, had been arrested and is currently spending five years in prison. Her parents couldn’t get her out this time and she was forced to endure being imprisoned. My dad and mom were furious after they heard what had happened. My dad was hell bent on going there and killing Margaret and Shelly himself, but I talked him out of it.
After some time, I couldn’t keep the secret of being pregnant and told them. They were shocked at first and dad did give Asher death threats but later, they grew a special bond. Asher even calls him dad now.
Dad did keep his promise about marrying mom and about two months after the accident, they were happily married.
Daisy is still currently in med school and we do keep in touch everyday. She’s graduating next month and her boyfriend, Niall, is planning to propose to her on that day. I’m excited to finally have Niall as a brother in law. He and Asher have become close friends and had called Asher yesterday to give him advice for proposing to Daisy.
Noel had a nasty breakup with Arthur two years ago and had sworn off men. He’s currently traveling the world and living a single life. Rose, though, was still single and she’s currently an elementary school teacher, who still, by the way, plays a lot of video games. She’s been visiting us often, especially since Ashley is her goddaughter.
Luke is still a player and I don’t think he’ll be settling down soon. Scratch that, I’ve seen the way he and Rose bicker, and I think a relationship is blooming between them even though they hate each other and deny the attraction. Luke is Ashley’s godfather, and let’s just say he and Rose bicker about Ashley a lot. By a lot, I mean competing to see who she likes more and get on each other’s nerves for the simplest things. They remind me of Asher
and I.
Asher had proposed to me on the day gave birth to Ashley. Let’s just say after five hours of labor, it was a beautiful surprise, I was pushing Ashley out

Chapter 298
when Asher, who was holding and squeezing my hand at the time, dropped down on one knee and took out a ring with his free hand and proposed there. After crying and shouting yes, Ashley came out into the world with a loud wail.
I had watched how his face had morphed into one of adoration as he first settled his eyes on his daughter. We had both cried of happiness as we looked at our little miracle. It was the best day of my life.
I heard little giggles coming from our room and headed there, already knowing what to expect. Little Ashley was giggling joyfully as her little grabby hands reached out to try and grip her dad’s hair that was similar to hers.
