 Grace POV
Well it's my stop. I was good to know you Grace. I hope we meet in future. 
I smiled and nodded saying, 
let's hope for the best.
I smile at him as he gets out of bus waving at me, I wave back. As the bus starts again, I check time, well I've some time I can get ready. I see I'm about to reach my stop so I get up, I check once to see if my forgetting something, my eyes land on a wallet picking it up I check if I can find any information about its owner.
Who forgets wallet? Seriously?
Let's see what it has. Hmm...... cash, credit card, and
Oh! An ID card! As I remove the card to see who it is, I see photo of owner.
Andrew! 
Oh goodness! How am I supposed to return it to him I don't even have his number? 
As bus halts at my stop I get down
I'll keep this with me for now and tomorrow I'll try to contact him if any phone number is given on card.  
While coming home I decided to get those pastries which I bought last we they were good, I'll also get few to take with for dinner going empty handed isn't good. As I get home, I keep some pastry for me separate in the refrigerator and went to take a quick shower.
After coming from shower, I dried my hair and went to my wardrobe to see to wear. I wore a cream coloured dress with a pair of small diamond earrings, looking at the mirror I was deciding,
 Should I keep my hair open or tie them or make a bun?  
I decided to keep them open 'looks good' I said as I was about to go to kitchen to get those pastry, I got a call. Now who is calling? 
Alexander? 
Yes, we have shared each other's phone number but barely contacted except for work.
Hello? 
Grace are you ready?
Yes, I'm just about the leave house. Sorry I'm a little late.
It's okay. I just wanted to inform you that I've came to pick you up, I'm waiting outside.
I was about to decline the offer but it's getting late already so I agreed.
Okay. Give me 5 minutes I'll be there.
Sure, take your time.
Alexander Pov 
As me and dad got back to the mansion, entering we saw everyone is busy with work and servants are arranging the dinner table but something seemed special. I look at mom who seems to be busy in preparing food. 
Mom, what's going on? Any special occasion?
As she looks at me and smile saying,
Looks like your dad didn't informed you. He  has arranged a family dinner in happiness of your arrival. 
I smile thinking about it, thank you dad I whispered under my breath.
I was about to leave to freshen up before the dinner. My mom says,
Alex?
Yes mom.
My son I know your and dad were not in good terms in past but now things have changed ,I want you to remember that whatever happens in future your father would always want best for you, have faith in him. Okay?  
Yes, mom but why suddenly are you telling this?
I heard her saying something under her breath but it was inaudible. I was about to ask her when dad called me in the living room. I went there and was him sitting on couch with some files.
Yes dad, should I help with work?
Keeping the file beside he said, 
Sure, I've some work for you but not these files. I want to you pick up Grace from her home.
Grace? 
Grace? She's also coming for dinner?
Of course, she's also a family member. Actually Mr. William was supposed to drop her but he has personal issues that's why he couldn't make it. So, will you go to pick her up or if you are busy, I can ask Noah. 
What...no! Noah no!
No dad I can go.
Sure, you are not busy? I can send someone else. For some reason I felt like I saw dad teasingly smile at me.
No dad I'll go, let me get my car keys. 
I quickly grabbed my keys and left.
Bye dad! I'll be back!
Mr. Blackwood (uncle James) Pov
Bye dad! I'll be back!
As I see alexander hurriedly leaving, I smirked 
Seriously my son you really thought you would fool your father huh? I saw the way your eyes light up when you saw her in cabin when I brought you to office. Of course, it was my plan to make you and Grace meet but you meet her before. Mr. Clinton informed me about the girl who helped you. 
I've caught you stealing glances at each other. I knew you liked her even back than even Grace had some feelings but,
That one incident changed everything.
Just thinking about it boils my blood. The fire of anger and desire to hunt down the one tried to harm my family is still alive.
Grace I've promised your father I'll protect you and love you as my own daughter after all soon you'll be an official family to Blackwood. I smiled 


What do you think why did Alexander's mother suddenly told him to have faith in this father?
What incident is Mr. Blackwood talking about? What happened in Past?
What promise is he talking about?
On the other hand we see Uncle James being a cupid between Alexander and Grace, what do you think what will happen? 👀👀
