Ashley Walters pov

My graduation ceremony was due in a few days. My university fellows were stunned when they discovered that I was married to Justin. Justin had gotten back his dean position, thanks to my dearest brother-in-law Keith.

Two years back, after the announcement of will by Grandpa, Sarah's mom passed away. Steward Garner... I mean Grandpa was very upset about her demise. She had been a good daughter-in-law and shared a very good bond with him before Leigh Walters arrived to announce her pregnancy.

The woman could not have enough guts to leave Ashton Garner, so she suffered throughout her life. She could never develop that special bond with her kids. She could never express her hatred for her husband to anyone. The woman was so mentally disturbed that she could never take a stand for her son when Ashton forced him to marry a girl. All the pent-up anger and frustration in her made her heart weak.

Dragging myself to the present, I looked around and smiled. It must be the first time in the history of weddings when the bride and groom were not present for their official first dinner. They did arrive initially but fled away after hugging and thanking their very few guests.

The only people left behind were immediate family and closest friends.

Holding Justin's hand, I was meeting everyone trying to spend some quality time with all my loved ones.

A few minutes back, Aniya and Eve were talking wildly about something but now Aniya was nowhere in sight while a man who might be a business associate of Justin was trying to make a conversation with Eve.

Evelyne! My beautiful friend who deserved a beautiful ever after.

Justin and I were talking to someone from the business fraternity when I saw Marwick trying to run after Mashal quite awkwardly.

"Honey. I need to go." I whispered in Justin’s ear. My husband didn't want to let me go but I needed to help Marwick with my baby girl.

"Mashal!" I called the naughty toddler who had crawled under the table making Marwick somewhat frown at her.

She was laughing like crazy at my big brother who was crouching down near the table and was trying to decide if he should get under it after her or not.

"You will be a very good father." I didn't know why those words escaped my mouth.

"Good girl! Come out to Maweek!" My big brother looked funny trying to coo a little girl who used to call him Maweek. He would be a great husband too.

Gosh! Now where this thought crawled into my mind?

"He is cute!" I heard an amused voice behind me and turned to find Layla Hayat's eyes glued to Marwick, "Sad that he is not available for commitment!"

That’s great! My brother kept things crystal clear between them.

That was so honest of him. Sweet!

"I am so sorry. I needed to go to the bathroom!" Sarah appeared out of nowhere and took Mashal from Marwick's grip.
