Chapter 51
Eden’s POV
The clock was ticking towards lunch time, I went into the bedrogin and came out dressed in high waist hip curves revealing dark blue jean trousers with a pusher round neck short sleeve crop top, my feet were well settled in black pair of Crocs
His brow crinkled up in surprise and his mouth wide open as he stared at me down from my approaching frets to my light maked up face.
He stared at 1
until I began to feel as though the looks were piercing my skin.
“Hey, what’s with the awkward stare?”
He was still staring with no blink nor answer, I took a few steps closer to him and tapped him on the shoulder.
“Hey!”
“He hey, you startled me, he inhaled fastly,”
“What’s with the weird stares,”
“Huff you look simply breathtaking and gorgeous,”
“With the way you reacted you made me feel like someone is gonna die when I stepped out of this apartment dressed this
way.
“Of course many will die, babe you look dead gorgeous, if I didn’t know better 1 will say you’re going somewhere else not Ruby’s.”
“Come off it please, it’s a good thing that you’re the one to drive me there so as to be sure where I will be,”
“Yea.”
He stood up and embraced me, he locked his gaze into mine and softly kissed my lips.
“Let’s have a quick one,” he winked naughtily and spanked my butt.
“You silly, let’s get going before the one thing you want to avoid hits you right in the face,”
“And what is that one thing?”
“Mama’s drama,”
“Yea, you’re right,”
“Let’s, get going,”

“Hey is anyone dragging me away from you?”
“Why?”

He opened the car door for une and he gestured as I entered, he shut the door behind me and turned to the other side of the
He was seated at the driver’s seat with his hands on the steering wheel, he stared at me and whispered.
“I love you”
“With every second we spent here chances of you facing Mama’dirama become high, so please,” I pointed forward.
He rode the car to the penthouse and 1 insisted on waiting for him in the car while he went in to quickly change into something
isn’t it supposed to be scaring you how he acts towards you? A part of me asked while I was alone in the car waiting for him.
It really feels good to be loved and I intend on enjoying every bit of his show of love in the midst of the calm before the stort if there’s ever going to be any
I shook my head and shrugged off the thought of being scared.
“You’re back, lunch time is thirty five minutes away from now,”
“I think I should order a ride to Ruby’s, so you can ride straight to the mansion to avoid been late,”
“I have always known it that you’re not going to Ruby’s place with the way you’re dress,” he kept a funny face
“Oops! What’s with the face! I was just watching out for you, but since you insist let’s go.”
He drove the car at moderate speed and we both stole glances at each other with our gaze locked and unlocked quickly.
After a few minutes of riding he stopped the car.
“How did you know this is Ruby’s place?”
I cannot remember him knowing Ruby’s place.
“I just know,”
“What else do you know?”
“Not much, I’m sure what I don’t know is by far more than what I know,”
1 chuckled.
“Thank you,”
“You’re welcome, have fun,”
“You too have a good time,”
“Bye,” I hugged him, engulfing his head in my arms.
We kissed and waved goodbye.
He rolled down his side window glass to say hi to Ruby who was already standing by the p
“Good afternoon Mr Hunter,”
“Good afternoon, thank you,”

A smile played on his free as he wind up the window glass and dive off.
By the time his car was out of my sight and I realized Ruby was standing, she was already giving me a you have so much to explain kid sis look.
“Wh_what?“1 stuttered.
“Oh! now you realize I am here huh? You are blushing? Eden you’re blushing?”
“I realized that this days only his talks tickles your fantasies and take you blush.”
“Ain’t you going to invite me inside? or do you intend on punishing my legs?”
“Who am I to punish my favorite? Come,”
We went into the house.
“Yay Anty” The kids left their toys and hugged me.
The sound of their laughter danced in the air.
1 knelt down to meet their height and hug them properly.
“I missed you kiddos.”
“Hi Eden, Zane greated
“Hey hubby,”
“I never believed Ruby when she told me that you were coming to visit, i was expecting to hear you call and cancel when you walked in.”
“Why
“You wouldn’t blame me, when was the last time you were in this house?”
“Like six months ago when you can in and went out almost the same time,”
“I was even surprised to see that the kids could still recognize you as their anty
He approach me with a serving spoon in his hand,
“As I’m approaching you, I hope you don’t receive an emergency call from your boss and walk out even before I get to where you’re standing,” he teased.
My niece and nephew are as smart and intelligent as I am, I’m sure even if they didn’t see me for ten years they will still recognize me, right kids?”
“Yes,” they chorused and nodded their heads at the same time.
We all laughed and hugged.
“Welcome”
Thank you,
“You look good than the last time we met, I guess you have been getting a lot of rest,”
“At the last family lunch we all noticed how pale and sick you look, but right know you look like a CEO that has no work

stress,
“Honey, guess who drove Eden to our house?” Ruby interrupted his talk.
“Who?”
“The person you would never expect to.”
“No way, don’t tell me that he was the one.
I looked at them in confusion not knowing who they were talking about.
“Yes baby, you got it right,”
“Seems like I’m the only one in the dark here, who?”
“Now I’m sure that we will have you to ourselves for the rest of the day since it was Hunter Blackwell himself that drove you here.”
“Okay now I get it, don’t you think what you were doing in the kitchen is getting burnt?” I tried to change the topic.
“I will be right back,”
“Ruby really? You’re unbelievable,”
She winked playfully.
“We were about to set the table when you walked in, would you like to join us in the kitchen?”
“So, you and your husband can finish what is left of me with your talks, no way, I will stay here and play with the kids,”
Smiles still linger on our faces when we go our separate ways.
The kids picked up the snake and ladder game board and brought it to where I was sitting, they handed over my own pair of the game seed and we played the game.
CC would jokingly cry whenever she counted and stopped in the mouth of a snack and was left with no choice but to go back to the snake’s tail.
As we played the game the memory of how
We used to play with Ruby and Inez sneaked into my head and smiled as I remembered that Ruby always gets pissed when she hits the snake’s mouth.
CC must have inherited it from her, Lol.
