The Love From Vengeance

161 MEETING UP WITH THE FAMILY

LUKE’S POV

I arrived at Tiffany’s house–not actually her house, her parents‘ house–and I had no idea what to expect, but I definitely wasn’t prepared for what I saw. I had agreed for her to take me to see them and talk about this whole pregnancy stuff. But I wasn’t too happy about this. It’s my fault anyway.

The moment we pulled up to the massive gate, I was quite surprised. I was really, really surprised. The building was mountainous, just like mine. And here I was, thinking she wasn’t in my status. I thought she was just an average lady, middle–class, and normal. But I guess I was just wrong. Why didn’t she live with her parents? Why was she residing in a different location?

Tiffany noticed the expression on my face and placed a hand on my knee. “What’s with that face? Are you surprised with what you see?”

I sighed, shaking my head, not giving her a response to her question. She understood my silence perfectly, so she turned her face away, looking in another direction.

I stopped my car, and we both left as the gates slowly opened. I was still startled by the sight before me. The driveway was lined with perfectly manicured lawns and flower beds. The mansion in front of us was three stories tall, with a grand entrance and a balcony overlooking the front yard.

I couldn’t believe her parents owned this place. I turned to her. “Wow, how come you never told me you were this wealthy?”

Tiffany chuckled at my question. “You never gave me a chance to.

I nodded. “Oh right.”

“Yes, because you just considered me to be your…”

“Okay, okay, I totally understand. You don’t have to tell me that, alright?”

“You knew what I was going to say?”

I chuckled. “Probably.”

“Let’s just go inside,” she said, holding my hand. I gave her an unfriendly look, and she quickly took

her hand off mine.

We made our way towards the entrance, and I was still not happy about this meeting. Hold on, why did the hell did I even agree to this shit? Oh right, I didn’t want her to start thinking like I was some heartless man or something.

I took a deep breath the moment we entered the house. I was greeted by a grand foyer with a crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The walls were adorned with expensive paintings, and the floors

were made of marble.

“Tiffany, darling, you’re back!” A woman’s voice interrupted my thoughts.
