Mr Billionaires Secret Baby

Chapter 19

Dante’s POV.

the loud chatter had become numbingly annoying wouldn’t the first half an hour of being here. truth be told I would choose to be anywhere else but at a family reunion involving Pheobe’s immediate family as well as her extended family, when she had first told me about this gathering he had lead me to believe that it would only be her parents and perhaps a few distant cousins but this was far more than I think she was prepared for stop

like any other day I would have flat out refused her offer and made up some other excuse like work just to get out of it but granted that her mood at present was not the best especially when he died come to me I decided to just be on the same side.

the sharp sound of a lady letting out a donkey like love laugh made me wince telling at the last put of my patience that I had left for this evening. the main in Phoebe’s family were not the brightest would exception of a handful but even they were interfere to be around. since they were the chosen. few amongst the entire generation that had actually accomplished something sustaining in their lifetime they had taken to point themselves to become overfully boastful with an extremely fragile

ego.

I tried to engage as little as I could and make sure to drink a few good glasses of alcohol if I was too put up with this event for the rest of the evening. Phoebe had stayed by my side for a little bit until she had seen her mother at the end of the room and quickly broke away from my side and rushed over to her mother.

it didn’t bug me too much that she had done so, if anything I had felt a slight wave of relief knowing that I could sneaky maneuver about the room without having being questioned about when Phoebe and I would be tying the knot.

I didn’t even want to think about any of that at present they were simply too much going on and I’ve never found myself feeling so unsettled before now, even as I sat here in a room full of people my mind still wondered over to Sophia.

I had this unexplainable need to always know what she was up to or what she was doing or who she was doing it with beginning to drive me insane because I’m no longer had access to her life or her in any way aside from a professional aspect. the mere thought of her spending her days with Adam. Huxley had my hand tightening around the glass in my hold.

I chugged back the last bit of dark liquid in my whiskey cup and felt the burn at the back of my throat before I set the cup back down motioning for the bartender to hit me again.

“I never thought that Dante Crawford would be a man who drowned his stresses of the day in a bottle. “Mason Pearson, one of Phoebe’s distant cousins, said with a smug grin on his face as motioned for the bartender to fix him a glass as well.

I offered him no response and redirected my attention back to my now full glass when Mason had. taken the seat next to me.

“I guess I can’t really blame you that much. being married to my cousin certainly must not be the easiest of tasks but I must commend you for how long you’ve put up. “I could sense the mocking in.
