Carter looked at him and said " Grace and i are married."

Mike closed his eyes for a second and then punched Carter.

" how dare you Mike?" Carter shouted.

" how dare you to ruin her life like that?" saying that Mike again punched him.

" Enough Mike hear me out." Carter shouted again.

Carter handed him his drink and asked him to take a seat.

" She is Grace Adam McGill."

" yes, she is his adopted daughter. we are family friends. I never saw her until a day before my wedding."

" What you mean?" Mike asked.

" you know mom was behind me since very long to get married."
