Chapter 29
They ate their food in silence and when they finished, Ca put away the dishes in the kitchen
along with Adele who shooed her away when she offered to do the dishes.
" Go on and meet your Mom baby, you guys have lots of things to talk about. I''ll just do the dishes
and head home " Adele said, smiling tenderly.
Ca thanked her and left for Georgia''s room. She was sitting up, as though she was waiting for
her. Ca had hardly settled downfortably on the bed when her mother spoke.
" So you''re getting married " Georgia blurted out.
Ca took a deep breath and nodded " Yes Mom "
Georgia raised a questioning eyebrow " To who? "
Ca sighed " I told you on the phone, Mom. Have you forgotten so quickly? "
" I was sick and words hardly stick in my head " Georgia said, defending herself.
" Was that a real sickness? " Ca asked, eyeing her mother.
Georgia''s eyes shot up " Of course! What else could it be if not sickness? Or do you think I was
pretending too? "
Ca smiled " Of course not, you were real sick "
Georgia rolled her eyes, she knew her daughter was just humoring her.
" So who are you getting married to? " She asked again, bringing them back to the main subject.
" Liam ke " Ca replied and sighed again.
Georgia frowned " That name rings a bell "
" That''s because I told you about him on the phone! " Ca said, getting exasperated.
Georgia shook her head " No, not even that. I feel like I''ve heard the name somewhere "
" Really? That''s because he''s quite famous in the business world " Ca said with a shrug.
Something clicked in Georgia''s head and she snapped two fingers as though she remembered
what it was.
" Yes that''s it! He''s quite popr, right? " Georgia asked, wide eyed.
" Yeah, why? " Ca asked with a small frown.
Georgia didn''t reply, instead she brought out her phone and started typing on it. A few minutes
later, she looked up with wide eyes and turned the screen of the phone to Ca.
" Is this him?! " She asked in shock.
Ca nodded " Yeah it''s him "
Georgia sucked in a sharp breath " You''re marrying a big man, Ca! "
Ca grimaced, not sharing her excitement " Really? "
" Of course! How did you manage to get a guy like him?! Did you fall for his looks and charms? I
heard he''s quite notorious " Georgia started to panic.
" Calm down Mom " Ca said,ughing.
Georgia''s eyes widened the more " I should calm down?! We''re talking about your future, Ca! "
" Mom, calm down and let me exin " Ca coaxed her mother and Georgia eyed her warily.
" Okay littledy, I''m all ears " She said finally.
" I love him, Mom " Ca said dreamily and smiled.
" He has been so good to me and he loves me too " She added.
Georgia huffed " That''s it? Even if you''re in love with each other, why are you getting married so
fast? "
She added " Are you carrying his baby?! " She whispered but it was loud enough for Ca to hear.
She blushed furiously " Oh Mom, stop! " And sheughed.
Georgia raised her eyebrows " If not that, then why are you getting married with little or no notice? "
Ca closed her eyes briefly, praying her Mom would be convinced this time " Mom, we love each
other and we''ve gotten to know each other, so why should we wait any longer and waste our time?
"
She added " Besides, I want to carry his baby so bad that I''m dying out of the hunger "
Georgia blinked her eyes " You wish to carry his baby? "
" Of course Mom " Ca answered, smiling.
" Ca, are you sure about this? I''m okay with anything you decide, I just want you to choose the
right partner " Georgia said pleadingly.
" Mom, I''ve never been so sure about the man I want to make my life partner " Ca said softly.
Thank goodness for her act, her Mom did buy it and she believed her. So sad everything would
have to end two years from now.
As if on cue, her phone rang and it was Liam. She picked it eagerly, her Mom raised her eyebrows
in surprise and watched her daughter.
" Hey " She said softly.
" Hi baby, how are you? " He asked from the other end.
" I''m okay, thanks for everything baby " She said sweetly, she needed to reassure her mother that
she made the right choice.
If Liam was surprised, he didn''t show it and yed along with her, he could guessed her Mom was
with her.
" You''re always wee, I''m yours forever, you know that " He replied yfully and Caughed.
She knew he had caught on to her act and decided to y along with her. She was grateful for that.
" How is Mom? " He asked
" She''s okay, better than she was before I came so I guess her sickness was just due to the fact that
she missed me " Ca replied,ughing. Georgia hit her lightly on the arm.
" She''s here with me " She added, stillughing.

" Okay cool, can you put her on the phone? " He asked politely.
Ca informed her mother in a whisper and Georgia collected the phone eagerly. Ca rolled her
eyes inwardly, so much for acting all cool and strict.
She watched as her mother got so smitten by Liam''s charm. He seeded in convincing her
motherpletely that he was right for her. By the time Georgia handed the phone back to her, she
was so excited that she started jumping on the bed like a kid.
" Hey " She said into the speaker
" Your Mom is cool Be, I love her already " Liam said,ughing.
Ca snorted " You think so?! She''s quite strict , if you must know "
Of course Georgia heard her and she eximed " I''m not! "
" Of course not, Mom, no one said you are! " Ca said sweetly and of course, she was being
sarcastic.
Liamughed from the other end " Let her be, Be, I think she''s cute "
Ca huffed and looked back at her mother " Cute?! You think this olddy is cute?! "
Georgia''s eyes widened and she blushed " He think I''m cute?! Whoa, I''m loving him already! " She
said excitedly.
Ca rolled her eyes " Thanks for lighting up her mood Liam, I really appreciate it "
" It''s nothing baby, I''ll arrange for her toe to the wedding " He said thoughtfully.
" For real?! Thanks sweetheart " Ca said softly
" It''s nothing, I have to go now. Take care, huh? I love you " He said
" I will, I love you more. Bye honey " Ca said and hung up.
