Chapter 42

They arrived at the Valentines’ villa. The moment Eliza entered the door, Demarion rushed up to her. The boy held a large bouquet of roses in his arms and said, “Congratulations, Mommy!” Eliza received the bouquet and asked, “What are you congratulating me for?” “Because you no longer need to be a stuntwoman! Braint and I are really happy for you!” Demarion looked at her with a cheery smile. “Braint even made a drink especially for you!” Eliza was touched.

With her face red and heart racing, she sank her teeth into her lip and turned to escape into the kitchen. She even closed the kitchen door behind her. Behind the frosted glass door, Beau looked at her back as she leaned against the kitchen door. A faint smile tugged on his lips. He looked up and saw Demarion on the stairs.
