Chapter 7 Meeting parent

Emily's POV

After ending the call with Abigail, I went downstairs to find Nanny, but she was not there. So I went inside the kitchen to cook dinner for myself. I had just put on the apron when I heard a knock on the door. I went to get the door and I saw two elderly people. I greeted them and asked them to come inside.

"Please come inside."

Mrs. Smith: "My child, you don't need to be polite. I'm your future mother-in-law."

I was shocked when she said so. I didn't know what to do so I greeted them both.

"Good evening, Mother and Father."

Mr. Smith: "How are you, my child? You can just call me Blake," he said.

"Yes, my child. You don't need to be polite. Call me Evelyn also."

"I'm fine, Blake and Evelyn. Please have a seat. Let me get you something to drink and eat."

Evelyn: "You don't need to stress yourself. Let Nanny do it," she said.

"Nanny is not around. I think she went to the market. Let me do the cooking." I dashed to the kitchen in a speed before she changed her mind. God, I was so scared. I thought they wouldn't like me, but they did. But still, being around them I'm still scared.

After I finished cooking, I went to the dining and served. I called them both as we started eating. Then I heard the door click. It was James. God, he is my lifesaver. I stood up and ran towards him and gave him a hug. He kissed my forehead and we made our way towards the dining. He greeted his parents.

We finished dinner. Blake and James went to the study to discuss business, while Evelyn dragged me to the sitting room and she started talking about wedding preparations. She said I will follow her to try on the wedding dress during the weekend.

After a while, they went home. James carried me upstairs.

"What do you think you are doing, James?"

James: "What? Can't I have alone time with my future wife?" He carried me upstairs and gently set me down. We spent the night talking, getting closer, and finally falling asleep in each other's arms.

"James: Good night, my love."

I didn't answer. When he turned me to his side, he found out I was sleeping already. He smiled. I was very comfortable with him.
